Well there as of right now is only the radar on the agenda.
Would be nice if they evaluated the AMK, PIRATE as well again, maybe even the LWS?
there is no need for PIRATE. its old now and they can use Litening G4 as an IRST. AMK was already evaluated, the question is if its worth it for them to include in P4E ( i hope so ).
i see this being used more for weapons than anything else tbh.
IRIS-T Blk2, FCAAM, FEANIX, SPICE-250ER, etc
ehhhhhhh PIRATE is still useful
theres no need to buy pirate now. thats like getting into 20 year old tech which is outdated
still useful but if you wanted it, you’d look for something newer
PIRATE is 2008
You know, PIRATE had changes over the years. Dont ask me what they did, as i have no idea, but there were changes.
again, there is no need for it as Litening G4 does everything they need it to do
Track a plane in a dogfight?
you have a radar
uh huh the whole point is you are using everything
Why have a IRSt if you have a radar
Why have MAWS when you have a RWR
Why have a towed decoy when you have chaff
terrible comparison
PIRATE for Tranche 4 is upgraded along with the Captor E.
Yes.
I think you missed my point. One of the reason some IRST are installed over the nose is to be able to track a enemy in a dogfight. No matter how advanced, LITENING cant beat the constrain of its carrier plane separating it from the target.

Development phase work is also underway on a new iteration of Pirate as well improving the reliability and robustness of the sensor.

Datamine shows there’s an event coming up with cold war SEAD, probably as a test mostly, but i think they’re getting ready to add AA (S-75) to airfields as well. Exciting stuff, finally.
isn’t the overload 6g on 5V27 missiles?
