Is PL 15 really 300 km? @Oscar @LKJ86 @Dazzler

Between 150-200km from multiple chinese sources including the reliable Huitong. The VLRAAM is rumored to be around 300km, hence they call it the AWACS killer.

VLRAAM you mean PL 21?
And Meteor's range is 150 km?

Google says it has 150km.

Both PL 15 and PL21 are VLRAAAM. In PL21 the range is further extended, reportedly to 400 km in PL21.
In any case, Pakistan already have PL 15 at its disposal, nothing to worry about Meteor.

Was't Su-30 declared mini AWACS and super duper air superiority fighter before it get shot down?

.

In your collective dreams?

Pathetic headline. The RBE2’s detection and engagement capabilities were highlighted during the last Swiss Eval - it is a formidable system but nothing close to this claim.

Can you post any link of it? i would love to read it. thanks.

Thank you Imran Khan.

 

[Jinn Baba]

Another mini-AWAC?

honestly its not all that its a pesa radar not an aesa, also look at why singapore rejected the rafale.

Tracking 40 targets is fine when you are using Rafale in a dedicated air intercept role with no AWACS involved. The force multipliers in service with the PAF can track many more than Rafale and can do that in a very dense EW/jamming environment.

Secondly, tracking is fine but then what about the firing solution? If we go by the initial article, even if F-16 tracks 20 targets, its doing it in a redundant mode along with the AWACS involved. Then the weapons on board are also a limitation in terms of how many targets of the tracked total can be engaged.

The good thing about Rafale is the self-protection suit and Meteor. That has value for strike roles and escort respectively and PAF will have to solution against it. The progress on JF-17 Blk 3 is very promising in this regard.

RBE2-AA is AESA and IAF ones have this radar. This is also the reason that JF-17 Blk 3 is AESA.

no they are getting a similar standard to qatar albiet a few changes so they wont be getting the aesa.

But Indians are claiming their Rafael is better than the one France is using.

 

[masterchief_mirza]

Such a Beautiful Machine, Our hearts will cry when we will nail this awsome machine. Its Rafael's bad luck what else can we do

It is beautiful but f-16 is prettier.

Thank you Imran Khan.

you are an idiot. India had decided on Rafael long before Imran became PM
