Actually, this 'modularity' does not always mean over-engineered. In case of Himars, it turns out to be the best thing ever.

Also, it seems a good numbers (102) of Cobra-ii purchase is going on silently. It appears Army is happy with its performance in UN deployments. Compared to our old BTR-80s, which doesn't have sufficient IED protection.

It appears BA bought 1x regiment (18) KAPLAN MLRS along with 400x TRG-300 guided rockets for $ 60 millions only. In the meantime countries are buying few Himars for hundreds of millions.😆

Cruise missiles usually features low RCS on avarage. But some are optimized for better stealth like JASSM, KH-101, JSM, SCALP or SOM. But the thing is, when they arrived over the horizon, (30-40km away) today's sensors (That include IRSTs) are so sensitive no matter how low your RCS is, at some...

Yes, it is true. But then again, strategic SAM sites are not intended to be hidden when they are set up and activated. Let me put it more clearly, SIPER doesn't always have to be able engage F-35 successfully to perform its duty. Nor the F-35's ability to get close would radically change the...

Can you provide the full document please?

In some sense everything is vulnerable, we have to be more specific in this regard. True, but we could pretty much say same thing about modern 4.5 gen fighters like Typhoon, Rafale F-15/16/18 equipped with stand-off cruise missiles. (Like JASSM, scalp, Taurus, JSM or SOM) What is special about...

Bro, i think @TsumugiShirogane is referring to our previous speculation about SIPER having detection range of 80-100km against F-35. (Previously, @Anmdt explained ERIS has 450km range against 1m2 RCS. And we did a rough calculation based what is known about F-35's RCS w.r.t that)

Very good question, only time will tell.

This is very likely to be false. We have only 1x regiment of these in commission. If there were more of these we could have seen more than 1x regiment in commission by now. @Flextape @F-6 enthusiast

I didn't get it, if it is a homicide then how could it be a suicide? Or vice-versa?🤔

Politically, it would look bad in international arena. Turks bombed PKK targets within their border and look how it turned out for them. 'Oh look, Turks are bombing their ethnic minorities and oppressing them!' -Westwrn media.

How dare you?😡 this one is my favorite.🥰

Full document please.

It is actaully Army's tender. And they already signed a contract for TB-2 as Turkish ambassador confirmed it explicitly Last year. BAF probbaly tested ANKA for evaluation previously. I think BD's own indeginous UAV also has a slight chance (to fulfill the short range UAV requirements) if BAF...

Honestly, i think those two batteries of PAC-3 that are already in service, could provide protective baubles for two independent airbases. And if Ukraine is provided with 24 (2 squadron) F-16s, they can operate each squadron from each airbase.

These are EXTRA missiles, it seems.

I think proper BMD would come with a new hit-to-kill interceptor. This one probably is more like Barak ER with ability to shoot down TBMs.

@Gary If this thing becomes real, pilots siting in 5th gen cockpits are gonna sh*t their pants! Looks like straight from a sci-fi movie, just like YF-23 was. Hope this time Northrop Grumman wins the competition for NGAD.
