Major Update “Tusk Force” - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

not as far as i know

What are you on about,the SPAA have the edge for a bit now. And will have it even stronger.

yeah, good. thats the point. at least they give you a warning

As if the existing 9M317A isn’t enough.

Makes me wonder if it may also be able to mount Stingers or Quad-Star (NGSRI, Stinger replacement contender) as well, as there are efforts that have been undertaken to mount them to Javelin CLIs

I doubt in stat card is strike aircraft or interceptor

Place on group ?

Why Mosquito F Mk.II not change to interceptor ?

The only official hint or “evidence” that the MA exists is a intent to modernize the 9M317A from a annual report by DNPP in 2013 but there’s no evidence its ever actually been made AFAIK

Meanwhile Germany is stuck with 4 Stinger and 8 PARS… WHEN DO WE GET OUR OUTER PARS PYLON???

JAGM in general is very interesting.

Far as I heard, not test fired from an Apache yet. Not even planned to be.

It’s near-IR seeker performs like a full-on IR seeker, acquiring locks from about four times the range it should be able to. And now they give it 16 of them?

JAGM doesn’t even have any IR only guidance mode its MMW/NIR or SAL. NIR is only there to improve accuracy and reliability in certain situations according to the product brochure

Neat…

Seriously? I can understand 8 Sal + 8 F&F, but 16 F&F long enough ranged to sit outside all but one of the SAMs that would actually have the Chance of shooting it down?

Holy power creep batman.

Guess I won’t be grinding out the new SAMs, I’ll just sit in my comfy 6.7-8.3 line ups and wish I had new SPAAGs for that range :/

Which sam is it?

my money is on SLM

I’m afraid 64E brings the same technology as NM and ME, so that one is out of the way.

oh damn

It is all fun and games when you make a heli that is under normal circumstances immune to both IR and RF, while making everything that can reach it IR or RF. And maybe Pantsir, but if you don’t hide within the time frame, it is a skill issue

right it gets LDIRCM, oops forgot about that.
So the ARH SAMs can’t hit it due to hover invisibility & multi pathing.
The only IR homing with enough practical range, the SLM can’t hit it due to DIRCM, (The CS/SA5 has enough on paper range, but iirc looses mobility pretty quickly so really isn’t that great, and well DIRCM)

I guess only the Pantsir S1, or maybe the Buk if the DL and proxy work well enough?
