General
@jhungary seems to have solved the drone probleM on his own. Please tell the sauds and their multi- billion dollar air defense assets all about it
A 20k drone can fly for hours inside the heart of ukraine and hit targets at will in the city centre. No viable or effective method exist of stoppign these
The only reliable asset that can engage them are extremely pricey 500k + missiles with extremely sensitive sensors
The problem with that is, Russia will love playing that game. You either deplete your precious and expensive ad assets on these, or just continualy eat it. No 3rd option
This shows how pathetic western miliatry industry is. They throw absurd amounts of money into overkill systems that cost so much, and are so difficult to produce that they essentially pr weapons for the cameras.
Iran is shitting on western doctrine. One 20k dorito at a time. All the people who have suffered thru centuries of western oppression and looting should be enjoying this and western desperation immensely
Looks like armchair
@zartosht seems to know shit.
FIrst of all, did Iran drone attack Saudi in Saudi Arabia? No, you attack Saudi Force in Yeman, I don't know if Saudi is dumb enough to bring their entire Anti-Air defence, like literally EVERYTHING they had to fight in Yeman. But if they did that, yes, that was dumb.
Second of all, there aren't many recorded strike on Saudi Position, and the situation, like in Ukraine, remain unchanged.
Thirdly Ukraine have almost all of their Anti-Air Defence position on the frontline to protect the troop, and they don't have enough AA system to go around, other than the S-300 and S-125 they had before, the west only gave them 4 NASAM and 1 IRIS-T system. Those also go straight into the frontline. And that's the reason why Russia only use the Iranian drone to attack the city center, not the frontline. Even you can swamp them.
And finally, you have to be stupid to believe a single weapon system can change the entire war, As Russia send drone to Kyiv, Ukrainian force retook another 3 strategic cities ((Orilenka (Partly), Vilshana and Tabaivka) in the East now closing in on Svatove. You don't win a war by bombing civilian position, you win a war by killing your opponent and taken or retaken those land, which is what Ukrainian is doing. Meanwhile those drone weren't even used at Bakhmut to help the Wagner group advance into the city, instead of using them in Kyiv and Lviv and Odessa, hundred mile away from the front line.
and not to mention by doign all that, you are drawing Israel into the fray on Ukrainian side for no to low operational and strategic gain, that's pretty dumb.
But hey, I am pretty sure this goes over your head, for you "Iran Stonk, West Stupid", Am I Right???
And no, I am not a general, I was a Captain, and
THAT'S MY ACTUAL MILITARY RANK, talk to me when you have one.
tell that to Ukraine not me
Well, it's you who believe in those crap, I never believe any number given from both side.
a dumb bomb if loosing its way , is lost , shahed-136 is capable of continuing its way and actually find its way and adjust accordingly , that is the difference with dumb bombs
Dumb Bomb can also continue it flight until it was impacted. There are no different between a dumb bomb and a Shahed 136 AFTER It has cut its communication, again, if there are any to begin with
at 40000 feet the temp around airplane is a lot lower than at 1000 feet AGL, a lot easier for Infrared cameras .
and there is no doubt distance play a very important roles . but consider it that F-35 don't use the shielding that B-2 or YF-23 had against heat . it rely on mixing exhaust gases with cold air to reduce heat signature and the result is probably a lot better than 1700 degree Celsius of other jets but certainly alot more than several hundred degree and again the the contrast to ambient sub zero temperature at those altitude are a lot higher than air cooled shahed-123 with the ambient temperature
Yes, but your sensor has to be
EXREMELY good to detect the contrast at 40,000 ft at ground level. Can you even see it on a thermal camera over a plane flying at 40,000? I literally tried on mine pointing at a plane I know is flying at FL360 (36,000 Ft) and it didn't pick up shit. And I am pretty sure that aircraft burn like a star, I mean, maybe yours can? I don't know.
You can pick up the heat signature if you are an aircraft trailing about 5 miles from a F-35, but then you need to know it was there before you can do that.
you can do that , but you must first find out which cell tower or radio station or ground radar I'm using
The key word is
YOU CAN DO THAT.
