India to use Tu-22M3 Supersonic Bombers to Hunt down PLAN Warships

Looks like youve been playing video games for too long...

How is plan going to track a plane thats thousands of kilo meter away from chinese ships??? And overwhelm our defences with what and how ??

Kindly update your info, China can keep eye on India now.

@ChineseTiger1986 please share your opinion about conversation and Chinese capabilities. :)
 
How much those birds are upgraded? 4 birds are not sufficient number against PLAN because they will send CBG to patrol Indian Ocean in future and they already have capabilities to take out air threats up to 200kms from ships.
What do the Chinese CBGs consist of? They have only one operational which is based on their aircraft carrier. Probably three in the future, at least one of which would be located in the SCS. That leaves two CBGs for the IOR.

The TU-22M3 is provided with hard points to carry Kh-22 stand-off missiles, Kh-15 nuclear or Kh-15P anti-radar missiles and FAB-250 or FAB-1500 free fall bombs. The wing and fuselage pylons and internal weapons bay are provided with a capacity to carry 24,000kg of weapons payload. However, India would not be arming the TUs with FAB-250 or FAB-1500 free fall bombs when operating over the IOR . They will be replaced with the hypersonic Brahmos NG BVR air launched missiles instead with a range >300 km.

Considering that each bomber has a weapons payload capacity of 24,000 kg, each will be able to carry 16 air launched Brahmos NG or about 10 Brahmos along with the Kh-22 BVR missiles and Kh-15P anti radar missiles. So that means 4 bombers would have 40 Brahmos and in conjunction with the anti radar Kh-15P, would rain destruction on any Chinese CBG in the IOR from ranges in excess of 300km.

And the Chinese CBGs do not and will never have anything even remotely equal to the USN's Aegis Combat System for area defence!

QED.

If hostilities broke between India and China then PLAN will have full support of Chinese NCW capabilities which include support from PLA and PLAAF too, and they also have DH-10, H6-K with variety of CMs, DF-21D & DF-26, JH-7 with 400km ARM & AShM missies etc. Now is India ready to face onslaught?

Please first have courage to stop Chinese entering border area then think beyond. :)
 
Tu 22M3 use anti ship missiles with range between 600-1500 kms....more than any anti air missiles on any ship...and it carries 12 such missiles.
But problem is India do not have range of such anti-ship missile :enjoy:

And you didn;t hear about India NCW Capabilities???? please update yourself with it.
Isn't DH-10 ground launched Missile what it can do againt Tu?? and H6-k is going to fly from where??? and DF is a Ballistic missile it will not be wise from Chinese to use them. First be sure if the Chinese can evade A&N and come within 400kms of Indian Coasts..

So what Indian Armed forces will do? Only Send 4 aircrafts? Please stick to the topic! its a CBG in the middle of no where ! This specific conflict will involve the IN and IAF against the PLAN and PLAAF
 
When you people showcase a untested, unproven missile, Its only making me to laugh at you guys

Old Jianghu Frigate

Old decommission Jianghu frigate used as DF-21D target ship
DF-21D test.jpg


A small non explosive warhead from DF-21D successfully hit the target ship bridge in some year reported from Chinese forum with these photo released. The whole bridge near flatten showing the impact from top. If its a bigger and explosive warhead. I am sure the ship will long break into half.

I can bet US spy satellite track and follow the whole PLAN exercise and test. As for why they didnt make a big hooha or released any news to public of Chinese ABSM successfully tested on sea shall be directed at reducing fear of US public being helpless of their CVN against such fast and accurate silver bullet :enjoy:

Same apply to IN. You can do nothing about us :lol:

Sorry, PLAN officially do not release such info. But Iran has demonstrated of their limited capabilities and ABSM is possible.


You can imagine PLAN ASBM is 10 times more sophisticated and powerful than this one. :enjoy:
