In Response to Houthis Missile attack on Israel,Israel deployed Saar-class corvettes in the Red Sea as reinforcements. These are missile boats that can carry various types of missiles, such as Harpoon anti-ship missiles, Gabriel anti-ship missiles, Barak surface-to-air missiles, and Popeye Turbo air-to-surface missiles.

So if Houthis attacked Saar Corvette,we will witness the performance of Barak-8 defence systems.
Since Indian Navy's front line Defence System is also Barak-8, PN should be ready to take notes.
 
Barak 8 is the only SAM in the world with minimum interception range of 0.5km. All other SAMs of its class have minimum 1 to >1.5km MIR. The extremely efficient light weight DPRM design gives it QR caps with terminal homing speed reaching Mach 3 with 2nd pulse

Since Indian Navy's front line Defence System is also Barak-8, PN should be ready to take notes.

Dumb Israelis sent their ship that lacks any form of offensive missile capability next to Yemen in range of multiple Houthi anti-ship missiles, while Houthis already don't fire missiles over the Red Sea any more :lol:
 
confirmed fake news by fascist dictator Aliyev himself

Azerbaijan stated that they did not observe the launch of an Iskander missile in Karabakh​


BAKU, February 26. /TASS/. Azerbaijan did not record the use of Iskander missile systems during the military conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev stated this on Friday in an interview with foreign media.

“We did not see the launch of the Iskander missile. Therefore, when the statement was made yesterday, we asked again, but no, we did not see it. This is just another blunder, which has already been made publicly,” he said.

Their mining agency found the wreckage of the missile:

Armenian General also confirmed that Iskandar was indeed shot down.
Armenian PM or president Pashyan also alleged Russian supplied weapons were faulty and couldn't hit the targets.

 
That's some serious capability
Barak-8 has a dual pulse motor, enabling it to regenerate energy in the endgame, and probably enabling it to use aerodynamic control surfaces for lateral vector.

Barak-8 has a dual mode seeker (Active radar + Infrared homing guidance) + 2 way datalink, enabling better target discrimination.

It is currently being inducted enmasse by the Indian navy. One more P15B class destroyers and 7 P-17A class frigates will enter service with 32 Barak 8 each, enough to move all current non MF-STAR ships out of carrier escort duties.

Further help arrives with 4 Talwar Batch 3 class ships that are reportedly being fitted with Shtil VLS as seen on their sister Admiral Grigorovich class frigates and variants of which are used by Pakistani Type 054AP and Chinese Type 054A frigates

This gives 12 more vessels with up-to-date AD systems

These are common things for every SAM.

Barak-8 has a dual mode seeker (Active radar + Infrared homing guidance) + 2 way datalink, enabling better target discrimination. It is also has a larger diameter. This may mean: it’s on board radar has longer range than other SAMs of same class, reducing demands on the launch platform’s radar.

You can't intercept supersonic Anti ship missiles with Barak 8
