Surely the one thing all warships do when they detect an incoming missile is switch on their FCRs? Ignore the chaff, ignore the flares, just go for the radar with analtitude offset depending on the type of radar. Even build a "picture" of the ship by triangulating various emmissions in the final moments before impact? Just thoughts. Now tell me if I'm being stupid.

Ok back with this new thread Dnepr space launch , the launcher delivered into orbit five http://www.rapideye.de/home/about-us/launch2008--/ for the German Space Agency. The space launch was simultaneously a flight test that was used to confirm reliability of the missile R-36MUTTH (RS-20B) ICBM. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khz3k...eature=rela ted

exhuming this old topic .... is it possible that IF A mig-31 fire all 4 R-33s at a single target it will have a better chance of hitting fighter-sized targets [ like f-4 , f-16] as it will complicate the counter measures for its intended victim.

Green Pine copy? nahhh china would never copy other country tech

Nag Missile to be tested by Indian Army in July The summer trials of NAG Anti-Tank missile will be carried out by the Indian Army by this July end.

Folks, During the Falkland's War in 1982 some of the RAF Harriers were sent down south to help the RN Sea Harriers (ie the Sea Harriers could not drop laser bombs). Before they were allowed on RN carriers, the RN insisted that their pylon connections be modified to mount the RN 2 inch fold fin rocket pods. Something about the powerful radars on the RN warships being able to set off the ...

Just saw this in a news blip ""Completion of this test means our warfighters are another step closer to receiving the world's most capable infrared air-to-air missile," said Penfield. "The AIM-9X Block II is a revolutionary weapon that will give the warfighter a critical advantage. No other missile in the world will match the AIM-9X Block II in range, maneuverability, off-boresight ...

In NUCLEAR terms what was the most powerful weapon the UK had or still has in its arsenal,

A few of these sounded fishy (wouldn't be the first time AvWeek screwed something up). 1. Apparently the range of PAC-3 is more like 40-60km rather than the 20kms that's been given practically since day 1. (The longer range could be because against an air-breather the PAC-3 can fly a semi-ballistic "shaped trajectory". ) 2. PAC-3 MSE's motor, in addition to being larger than the basic ...
