Anti Aircraft Carrier Missles for JF17 Thunder

dear there must be some% of chances otherwise design build and wasting millions on this missile was for ? china is not that much stupid .
Yes every missile has chance to score direct hit on a carrier. And it is limited to that only. In Indian scenario if you go by history, Indian boats are assigned in greater no to reduce the risk as our defensive range is less. Whatever figures in CSG we see are only during peaceful times, in wartime numbers are increased as much as are available. In a hypothetical scenario if war happens we are going to put all available ships in small no of group to increase the firepower. One can assume that Indian navy might put 1 carrier 3 destroyers 5 frigates 2 corvettes 1 supply ship 1 SSN 3 SSK(intelligence gathering only). It will be solid defence with three layers at the least. First will be Mig which have range of 700 with significant time on station(1000 km extreme range). With long range AAMs one can increase firing range to 800 kms while maintaining on station capabilities. Second is our long range anti missile system which has 70 km range at max with BARAk 1 as backup. Then we have main gun and CIWS with range of 25 km at max which is last line of defense with ECM firepower provided by capital ships against arial threat. So in case if we are going against CM400AKG then it has max range of 250 kms. It means JF 17 will have to come to at least 250 km near the carrier to target it. It can be launched only when JF17 is at subsonic speed which also puts jf17 in restrictions. Do you think if India sends its carrier to 600 km far from Pakistan mainland will JF 17 can respond in such conditions. While thinking this one has to also take notice that JF 17 maneuvering ability goes lower when it has fuel tanks anti air missile and CM400 AKG under its belly. Its possible but how much one has to take a genuine guess. Thank you.

u have to get close to a AC before you can destroy it.

Any sensible navy knows that its very hard to drown a A/C , but the real thing is just to give AC a blow that can put him out of Battle .... probably they have this theory in mind

There are always ways no doubt good Airforces never spill their beans just keep enemy guessing
 
.
I just have an innocent question, does FC-1 have be right on top of the carrier before it can deploy the weapon.
you might get the answer to your simple question, if you read the post again

Tactical Anti Aircraft carrier Missile Add a distinctive Punch , a few handful of missiles cost in Millions vs Billion dollar heap of scrap

Is it not strange that even Russia has abandoned quest to create aircraft carriers and instead opted for smarter choices

A USN CBG consist of 16 warships, which will include 3-4 SSNs, 2-3 Cruisers 6-7 Destroyers and Similar number of frigates

A single American CBG carries over a 1000 SAMs and 64-90 Fighters

Even the much smaller Indian CBG will consist of 7-8 Warships having over 300 SAMs and 25-30 Fighters

Granted that PLAN can over whelm an Indian CBG in SCS,

But I dont see PN/PAF doing the same in Arabian sea
Are you sure about those numbers i read somewhere that 5-6 ships(all types included) accompany a cbg,with submarine an optional choice?

One tone of missile with Hypersonic speed with a 200 KM + range with 200KG + warhead is impossible.

This is applicable only in peace time. In war scenario and especially if enemy has some strength, no one wanna take a chance with their capital ships. Thank you.

Um no, Russia still plans to create new carriers. And they still retain their only carrier. Same for China. If the anti ship missile was the magic bullet against carriers, why make the carriers? The U.S. Navy could have abandoned it all since the introduction of anti ship missiles many decades ago.

BHai.... answer is very simple...

It's a man mentality that if we have something than always say good things but if not or not capable to have than simply start saying it's a very bad etc etc.............. Wonder if your enemy country have than...... to khuda khair kare, jitni burai ho sakti hai utni karo......... than start:blah::blah::blah::blah:

Well MAN will be MAN........can't change:p:

PAF would need a missile with a range of several hundreds of kms AND be launching hundreds at the carrier at the same time to stand any chance of hitting the carrier. The problem is that a carrier is a moving target and so the chances of being able to hit a carrier, even with hundreds of missiles launched, is actually close to zero.

To be able to successfully hit a carrier would require in excess of 100 hundred aircraft being sent out at the same time. Around half would be fighters that would deal with the carriers fighter escorts and any aircraft the IAF can also send out, and the rest would be tasked with launching their missiles at both the carriers and the escort ships.
Please stop playing red alert

Every carrier fleet has 3 layers of defense for incoming missiles, relying on just one missile to disable a carrier is pipe dream. The biggest threat for carriers are submarines.

We banged the Nimitz during a training. We can hit yours if needed. Just do not hide it on the other side of them moon next time...

Funny thing is what PN cant afford automatically becomes obsolete.....
