    It is probably 150km+. Just like SIPER block 1 range was revised to 100km from 70km initially. New range for SIPER block 2 might be declared later. US solid rocket motor tech still ahead of everyone. Hence SM series has really good performance.

    All of these are validating. But we know Turkish AD interceptors can do this with subsonic targets since 2020 with dozens successful of tests. It's time to test and validate them against Mach 2 target rounds in real scenarios.

    Do we know what target round was used to mimic MRBM characteristics? Also, I wonder how much deployment of these interceptors would upset the balance of power and render Pak strategic nuclear delivery systems (Shaheen-3/Ababeel) and overall capacity ineffective?

    India India interested in Joining European 6th Gen FCAS Fighter Program

    When first AMCA prototype is flying and infra+experience is already there, wouldn't it make more sense to start indigenously design a 6th gen platform from early 2030s and induct it in late 2040s. From US and China's experience, it seems, 6th gen programs are running relatively smoothly...

    To me it does not make much sense to compared APG-81 with ECRS MK2. One is fielded in thousand of aircrafts while the other one still in testing. In fact, it is more accurate and fair to compare APG-85 with ECRS MK2. Even though, APG-85 is delayed by two years, (originally planned to be fielded...

    https://share.google/ab1UhMvn2HdcZVm3i @Sanchez according to Chinese state media, J10CE scored 9-0 against Qatari Typhoon in simulated air combat during Zilzal-II exercise in 2024. This was a rumour since last year among PAF 'insiders' at the other forum. Of course this don't mean much in terms...

    I wonder how this design compared to the waverider or the YJ-19 design that Chinese recently showed. What are the advantages and disadvantages.

    I was wondering are these electrically propelled small UAVs radiate enough heats for IR missiles (like HISAR A) to lock onto?

    At 15:55 he said US and China hasn't reached level of technology in scramjet that India has reached. Are all the researches and tests regarding HCM development publicly disclosed and published in USA and (specially) China to reach this conclusion? I doubt it.

    Aselsan has come up with many variants of its short to medium range air defense solutions. I wonder if there will be truck based version of SIPER system. (Specially radars, power vehicles, and launchers) At least for export offering. Currently it is all trailer based. Because for countries...
