Although interception of munitions now occurs with higher probability, actually getting the radar to pick up and select the munitions for targetting is very difficult. Additionally, it is impossible to target the launching aircraft, as the moment they shoot their missiles the TWS box starts following the munitions instead of continuing to track the aircraft. This means any missiles shot at the launching aircraft that have not yet switched to IIR guidance stop tracking the aircraft and instead head for one of the munitions. The TWS track needs to remain attached to the radar return matching the plane, not the new munition.

We also need some way to filter the radar returns between target classes/sizes, because if there’s 20 GBU-39s flying around, good luck figuring out which radar return in the blob of returns is the F-15E dropping them.

Armyrecognition isnt reliable source?

Sadly not.

They do seem to be a little bit less strict with the most modern systems and might accept manufacturer pamphlets and websites sometimes, no clue what the requirements are on that front though.

Good find, but it’s only suited for getting the SLS’s IRIS-T missile’s speed raised back up at best. That is not about the SL missile.

IRIS-T can successfully engage flying targets at a distance of up to 25 kilometers, reaches a speed of clearly more than 3 Mach, weighs nearly 90 kg at a length of 2.94 meters and a body diameter of 12.7 centimeters. The missile is fully compatible with existing Sidewinder interfaces and warrants a high rejection rate against infrared and laser countermeasures.

This, is the IRIS-T (Air Launched)
not the ground one

Still good, i don’t know why they even nerfed the SLS

Because the surface launched maxes out at mach 2, it’s the air launched that is mach 3 for the “normal” IRIS-T.

maybe because the swedish wrote thenself that for the SLS the speed is just M2

That could actually be used for SLM ass well though.

yea, we allready tried it, still waiting for an answer on it

Yes but there is multiple sources stating mach 3 speed for IRIS-T SLM which cannot be mounted on a plane. Unfortunately none of them from official sources.

Yes, you asked why the SLS was decreased, that is what i answered to.

What is that source considered as? Official government document or is it a study?

Because there’s also a polish independent study that could be used as a M3 source for SLS if studies are accepted as source.

which cant be used because “Russian”
