very simple , they lack precision guided anything in number.Have you ever wondered why Russians are using these rockets on their most advanced and expensive Helicopters in Ukraine!?
those hydras are only effective when you fire them from close , Almas effective from distance far beyond enemy man-pad and short range air defense system .
Almas can be carried on cluster of 4 hydra on cluster of 17, our helicopter can carry two cluster.
you yourself decide which do more damage , 8 Almas or 34 hydra .
now if you turn the hydras into a precision guided weapon like what Elbit(GATR-L) or BAE (APKWS) II or Raytheon (TALON) or Lockheed Martin (DAGR) then that will be some other generation of beast , but I'm not aware of such project in Iran , do you knew of any such development ?
