    Stingers vs Bombs

    Hi Yahya, Thank you very much for finding these specifications. I can't seem to confirm a 15 km range spec on one of the ANZA versions. Am I missing something ? Do you have the specifications which confirm that ? Will get back to you asap. WS, major_sam47

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Gents, Sandia National Laboratories in the US has come up with a mini-SAR, 15 km range. Check this link out: http://www.sandia.gov/radar/images/SAND200...tp2-v4-redo.pdf Only 27 lbs. In terms of adapting this to detect cruise missiles what would be needed ? Would also need radius coverage...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Yahya, Mysterious Would it not be reasonable to project the Indians as already having developed a ground hugging cruise missile through Russian assistance ? The Russians have an anti-ship cruise missile called Onyx, for which they should have developed a land attack version. This thing can...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Yahya, Getting back to cruise missile defense strategies, you had indicated PK radar can pick Brahmos cruise missiles, live. I am surprised that PK has got this capability for its ground based systems. Even the US is challenged right now in terms of ground based radar being able to pick low...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Yahya, In your opinion, what could be the worst case scenario for PK Air Defence, if an agressor successfully carried out high intensity airstrikes to take out all PK radars and SA missile batteries ? In such a scenario, how would the country defend itself from air attacks ? What could...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Hi Yahya, Yes the kind of equipment you've referred to in that link would be awesome, and I hope PK is making progress on acquiring more of it. The advantages of such systems would include wider area coverage for early warning, as well as capacity to engage multiple targets. Disadvantages...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Hmm...I was thinking something the size of a large school. Was also going to propose having 2 - 3 MANPAD missiles available for firing at one cruise missile. These MANPAD missiles would need to move at Mach 4 (like the Thales Starstreak - can Anza be re-engineered ?). Several two person...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Yes I see what you're saying. The funny thing is cruise missiles, even stealth, aren't invisible and they should be detectable by visual means at the very least. Why couldn't a small UAV be developed to visually detect a cruise missile within a 40-50 km radius ? I have a hard time...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Some other questions as well: 1. How similar is the Baktar-Shikan to the French Mistral. BTW, Yahya, French Mistral can move at Mach 3.5. Pakistan acquired Mistral from France. Has an analog been developed by PK ? 2. Has Pakistan developed, in addition to Anza, analogs of Raytheon's...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Thanks Webmaster....alot of music in that one :) Yahya...intercept speed would be a critical factor. I thought Anza analogs of the Stingers were developed and already deployed by PK. Could not a 750 m/s Stinger analog be extended to 1.00 or 1.25 km/s. Regarding the AWACs, I mentioned those...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Hi there mysterious, Was it the US Army you were referring to in your first reply, or the Pakistani army ? If you meant the latter, how far could the PK Army be in the development or deployment of such a system ? Looking at the system described on the link you referred to, I wonder to what...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    mysterious, I had no idea about this system. Do you know of any links where this SLAMRAAM system is discussed in more detail, being approved for public release ? I would imagine the system you mentioned is not man-portable and could be like a sitting duck when deployed if its hard to move it...

    Stingers vs Bombs

    Ground Based Stinger Missiles against Incoming Bombs Dropped from High Altitude, and Missile Separated Warheads I am seeking the opinion of experienced military personnel on some questions I had regarding a hypothetical method to intercept incoming bombs dropped from high altitude, and high...

    Stingers against Supersonic Cruise Missiles

    Stingers against Supersonic Cruise Missiles I am seeking the opinion of experienced military personnel on some questions I had regarding cruise missile defense methods. I’d greatly appreciate any time you could spare to respond. 1. How many stingers would be necessary to take out one...
