The advanced one with Janus radar

The radar is a Janus-faced ESA, evidently intended to generate track outputs at a significantly higher rate than the VNIIRT 2RL80/2RL80E on early production systems for the Russian PVO and export clients. The system is claimed to be for an export client, not disclosed, who may be Middle Eastern given the desert camouflage on the prototype vehicle. A higher tracking rate would provide a better capability to track PGM targets, especially variants of the AGM-88 HARM/AARGM.

Nevertheless those weapons are irrelevant in the anti ISIS conflict.

This doesn't make sense especially when you have an insurgent group 6 miles outside your capital..!

thats what Iraq needs the most...Anti-air weapon systems, just in case ISIS captures an air base full of war planes

Contracts for these systems were signed before the situation in Iraq deteriorated as a result of ISIS. These systems were not procured as a result of any urgent operational requirements.

AAA cannon are very effective against ground targets too.
The gun requirement led to the adaptation of the 30 mm GSh-30 aircraft cannon, carried by Russian fighters. The 2A38 series 30 mm gun is a twin barrel revolver design with a belt feed and an electrical drive. The barrels are cooled using water or an anti-freeze fluid. The barrels can be elevated to +85º and depressed to -9º relative to the turret base. Each 2A38 series liquid cooled 30 mm gun delivers a rate of fire of 1950-2500 rds/min, a muzzle velocity of 960 m/s, using the 2A42 cartridge and 0.39 kg projectile. Cited total rate of fire for the 2K22 variant of the gun is 4060-4810 rds/min. A range of shell types are available including tracers, HEI and fragmentation.

So it seems the plan is to let ISIS infiltrate , into Syria , then bomb syrian infrastructure , they capture the Syrian planes and then when they come to Iraq these are also taken out

Seems like a attack against Russia and Syria to me

Rissians must be wondering why they ever sold the aircraft carrier to India they could have used one right now

Meanwhile Modi is dating Wolvrine
