    Is there any detail infos on Brahmos batteries' C2 nodes and fire control architecture? I mean, I know it has a organic surface search radar. But those usually don't see beyond 50km. Can it integrate targeting data from third party sensors? Like fighters and drones? @Gessler @Nilgiri

    Thanks to ASELSAN, Türkiye is now one of few countries that can manufacture state of art 'Radio Detection And Ranging' sensors in various scales and types. If you were keeping tab on Aselsan since 2010, you gotta admit it's been a spectacular journey.

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    It almsot like you are talking about me? Here's what I said two days ago. Again, I am talking about Israel's ability to carry out large scale protracted air war over Iran across the distance on its own. Not limited airstrikes with F35s and stand off strikes. My position hasn't changed.

    Yes, that is true in case of Israel. But I was only making a general observation. You are right. Iirc, Simsek will have advanced feature of mimicking aircraft's radar signature like ADM-160 MALD. Consequently, enemy AD will likely have hard time distinguishing.

    Yes, although it is low on the possibility spectrum, but nevertheless a scary thought. If, let's say, French, German and (God forbid) US AD systems and aircrafts are deployed in similar manner, even only defensively, it would become a completely different scenario all together.

    TR Marine Blue Homeland(Mavi Vatan)

    A competent AD network would shoot down extremely slow flying loitering ammunitions as well as subsonic cruise missiles efficiently. Yes, even the stealthy ones. Today's AESA radars are too sensitive to miss them when they appears over the horizon. And modern AD C2 nodes are incredibly fast...

    Yes, everybody think they are the middle Kindom, lol. As for last several hundreds years, more war has taken place in Europe. Since ww2 South/East and Southeast Asia is more stable on average than ME. We would like to keep it this way. But the focal point of the next great power competition is...

    I mean, even two Type39B would cost around a billion $. China is the preferred option for our already existing logistical set up, and financially they can offer LoC if we were to make such big purchase. Also, geopolitically Chinese Subs for BN will maintain the balance w.r.t India.

    None of this news sources are explicitly verifying that interceptions happened with the first stage fuel tanks. Of course Israeli AD intercepted most of the missiles, but it's definitely the warhead after separation. It is not correct to compare with fighter jets when those are intercepted in...

    It was more than excellent air defence system. Four air forces led by USAF, Israeli air force themselves and then 6 types of Air defence systems. Patriot, Devid's Sling, Arrow-2/3, Iron Dome, AEGIS ships.
