It is as mobility of a SAM system GREATLY improves its survivability as well as its ability to keep the element of surprise. The Chinese are developing AESA sensors for SAMs. When they come online, it would become an irresistible procurement.

so you spent $millions on a mid range fixed sam, now willing to pay more for a mid range mobile sam. Go for it.

by the way, spada's RAC 3-D acquisition radar is more advanced in processing and power than even HQ-9s. It uses more advanced manufacturing process and is more reliable when used ruggedly. There is a reason why we went for spada instead of other sams of the same class, mind you, the yanks also stepped in with SLAMRAAM. Out of five participants, spada came on top. Despite it being semi active, its accuracy is remarkable, more than other missiles of the same class.

I think that the next acquisition should be mid range (100km) class SAMs.

Hmm, good to know that. Of course, China seems to be our to-go place.

thats 61m altitude.....why do we need such....

 

[Bratva]

He is talking about range not altitude

 

[fatman17]

He is talking about range not altitude

its a surface to air missile with 100km range (61miles) - why do we need such...
