man you raging so hard that you putting type 91 missile as stinger
they are not the same, and type 91 not using UV. they are using visible light and IR then changed to IIR

People still think the Type 93 is using Stingers lmao 🤣

kinda surreal actually, since this is the only way Japan can even useful as AA while other have even better missile and even have radar with it.

Stingers do not use photo contrast mode they use a dual mode IR/UV seeker which doesnt work the same way. photo contrast seekers track targets via the targets visual contrast against the background, IR/UV seekers track the target via IR but then use UV reflections to determine what is the target and what is a countermeasure. (as I understand it a flare would have very little UV return but a plane would reflect a decent amount of UV light from the sun giving it a much higher UV return) FIM 92K uses a vehicle datalink rather than any optical seeker at all so its just entirely wrong. Also type 91 missiles are not stinger, they are domestic Japanese missiles although weirdly it seems that they also use IR/UV seekers so im not sure why they received photo contrast but stingers didnt

no. Japan or in this case Type 91 missile did not use UV. they used IR and Visible light, and changed to Imaging InfraRed (IIR or Thermal Imaging). so no they are not the same
can you show me where you get that IR/UV, i’m curious now

Yeah that’s not how it works at all lmao
Stinger seekers don’t use contrast locks, like the Strela and Type 81 do. Type 91 SAM isn’t a Stinger; it’s BASED on a Stinger but it’s a japanese domestic design meant to improve on the Stinger. It has a dual seeker mode which allows it to use contrast or IR lock.
Your criticism on the Stinger K is accurate, the datalink should be present, but a contrast lock is not something it should ever get because it never had a contrast lock capability IRL.

WRONG!
the fim 92K uses a Seeker with QOUTE "
Block I upgrade introduced in 2018 that incorporates a proximity fuse and new flight motor and booster. Produced new and as upgrade. FIM-92K is similar but adds a datalink that allows for lock on after launch capability, extending effective range against l*ow signature targets.*"
I WONDER WHAT a LOW SIGNATURE TARGET IS…
so to make you belive me that it has the UV C O N T R A S T mode you gotta start looking for a video wich is not allowed on here…
a israeli MACHBET blowing this outta the sky (at 8 KM) ( with the UV CONTRAST BASED MODE) as this dude does NOT have enough heat signature ( only after)
the machbet does NOT even use datalink its only on the avenger AND the ozelot… so better do your research!
working hard every day!
