Old Timer checkin on BR jingos. ... If true, this shows the frightening dominance established by our forces in such a short time of operations that pushed TSP to a nuclear response.

Old Timer checkin on BR jingos. 1. The beating which PAF got in 90 minutes was beyond my wildest imagination. 2. If IAF lost aircraft on Day 1, dig into RoE. Civilian airspace was open, military was not to be targeted. Very likely it allowed PAF AWACs to come closer to the border than they could and...

First of all Keep in mind Moskva has huge 180 degree blind spot to front of the ship with its RIF system (naval S-300) so it has to orient the ship to the target as it has only one RIF fire control radar. So if it is facing the TB.2 coming from one side it is completely blind to any missile coming ...

Looks like after the initial shock the UKR forces are now responding in certain sections (eg: Anantov airport reclaimed it seems).

Very likely UKR wants this to be an urban war, where their Javelins etc can wreak havoc on RU armor.

I just hope diplomacy puts an end to the hostilities soon enough.

In a clear blue skies scenario with the sun shining bright and behind your back, you can easily see 10s of miles away. More importantly if you know to look for something in a particular area, you will be able to locate it. And the aircraft were leaving big contrails also so detection was not hard at...

Radar Guides missiles have higher range, but require multiple systems to work in cohesion to succeed. As such they are not stealthy since both the targeting radars and the missile's own terminal radars will be detected, giving the targeted aircraft an early warning. In the Swift Retort context with ...

There's a report that entire missile was recovered from sea so they'll be able to do extremely good failure analysis. Impossible. 1. If a self-destruct button was used, missile won't be in one piece even before it hits the water. 2. If a self-destruct button was not used, the missile will be in tho...

I am glad that they are rushing things out faster. As long as the test missiles are properly instrumented even a few minutes of flight provide truly valuable input and validate various sub-systems. Trying to create the perfect system with 99% success probability takes much longer than one with 90% s...

This is using a Trapeze Launcher https://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/equip/lau-141.htm Looks like there was a small time gap between the disengagement of the front and the back connection point.

Range is not useful without speed and manoeuvrability. How manoeuvrable is ngarm ? The dual pulse motor should be a dead giveaway for the role it is intended for. Besides AWACS are just sluggish commercial aircrafts bogged down with additional equipment. Not much energy required by the missile in e...

One thing to consider is that R73's can be launched at a very high off-boresight angle. Even as high as 90 degrees. The same is likely not true for the R77 because the beam angle of the Kopyo in the Mig21 nosecone is likely not as wide. An IR lock is much harder to break and jam, especially if you ...

When it comes to unmanned equipment (eg: cruise missiles) the risk/cost of an imperfect product is low. If the weapon hits its target within the CEP it is clearly a positive.

There is a law of diminishing returns in any area. And warfare is often asymmetric. The PLAN is now larger than USN. However, just having those ships will not be enough.

+1 on what Karan said. Abhinandan did use radar scans to detect PAF aircraft but was close enough to take an IR shot. The battle area was compressed due to the Pir Panjal range. PAF did not see him till he crossed over, and that meant that the air-battle got out of a pure BVR mode pretty quickly. An...
