mentioned about it quite long ago ))))
Are you saying you disagree with that statement?
DIRCM dazzles the seeker of an IR missile the problem lies with systems like IRIS-T they don’t use conventional IR seekers.
How is a DIRCM dazzler/laser going to completely decoy an IIR missile?

with enough power
the point of LDIRCM is to essentially burn the seeker by using a high power laser.
Any IIR is vulnerable to this, however IRIS T uses a focal plane array swashplate design which uses only parts of seeker at a time, hence reducing exposure time and allowing the missile to be resistant, for some time.
But it does works IR imaging seekers may be very resistant to laser jamming
Note that The laser did hide part of the aircraft. And the seeker has only managed to lock into part of the aircraft that was outside the laser. Thank to the Algorithm.
That its totally different to the cope people said about IRST; that DIRCM don’t work. I remember reading that with laser modulation the laser could totally blind the seeker. What its unknow its how Su-57 DIRCM work. People like you just assume that its the same as Mi-28.
totally miss the second post.
what?
Ok so we have missiles that can home on jam, defeating Russian EW systems.
We have IIR missiles so Russia have developed a laser that has to detect the missile (meaning both IR/AESA MAWS system tied into this system) it then has to be in the perfect position to then somehow destroy the entirety of the IIR seeker, some will not be enough. in a very short window of time.
Now yes from 25km speculative shots maybe possible, in closer range engagements I would love to see the science.
As for Mi-28 a DIRCM system they are so proud of yet they actively stay out of range of SHORAD systems? It’s like an F-117 bragging about being immune to Radar and then just not flying over Baghdad and using stand off missiles instead.
or you know
maybe the heli crew is not suicidal
why should you risk it if you dont have to
I missed that someone has already posted pic of it. I have read about it but i haven’t see pic of the ECM Cartridges.
I agree with you.
I was reading up on this and apparently these are actually in use? I was debating updating the suggestion with it.
The specific one mentioned in the picture are not in use, We dont know whats the exact ECM cartridge used in the felon.
coverage is not perfect, and they can only deal with 1 at a time
Quick question,
Regarding the Byelka and accompanying N036 radars placed around the Felon, how is that picture put together for the pilot?
Can it search in a 360° AESA Scan (like the Pantsir), or is it more like having multiple scans contributing to an overall radar display?
Essentially will i get full coverage and can I focus power on particular sectors?
Only issue is that ToJ provides a direct vector as opposed to a leading one, so the missile is far less efficient when it comes to guidance and kinematics, making it easier to dodge since it’s not taking the optimal path
i mean it could probably pitbull once it gets close enough right?
VKS no longer wants batches of Su-57s with AL41 engines; we can say that the Su-57 itself would be completely ready if it weren’t for the engines, and I believe that’s why Sukhoi is designing the Su-57M to solve what still needs to be solved.
Yep, but in ranges where ToJ is in effect, it’s being used in favour of datalinking, meaning you can defend it before it gets to pitbull.
Obviously ToJ combined with Datalinking and an offensive position from the launching aircraft will result in a hit, however ToJ itself is less efficient
I assume, which is logical, all 3 arrays will work together. All the targets will be shown together essentially
yes you can focus on particular sectors too, it is known as narrow beam.
also to add, its not 360 degrees coverage, but rather 300 degrees (± 150)
