Welcome to the world of Aerospace research
JAi are you in the IAF?
Where did the Iraqis fire it from? The closest point from Iraq to Kuwait City was through the Persian Gulf over the water at least 50 miles. What, the navy or AWACS didn’t see the the boat big enough to launch the Seersucker from? Or did they roll a launcher and a big missile on top of it across the border the long way, past through US forces, up to Kuwait City and fired it without being seen or captured.
All your excuses make the US military sound more and more inept.
Now your just argueing for the sake of argueing… well your choice your right, why dont you get your head of state to start a fight with the inept US
You would think that the US military would have mentioned something about China ever operating MiG-31s in their reports on Taiwan and the Chinese military.
I would think that it would be pretty hard to disguise from satellites if they ever went operational in China.
I think you are looking for the sentence impossible to disguise. But you never know.
matt, seersucker/silkworm cruising altitude is around >500 meters only in terminal phase does it fly low around 20 meters (only the improved variant which i doubt iraq). Besides I bet the iraqis made it have high cruising altitude and disabled its terminal phase to enhance its range/payload.
Erm no, they even mentioned that the missile was a anti ship missile and it was fired by some one close by to avoid the patriot missile system.. look at the information on the missile above.. this news was on 3 seperate channels all saying similar thing that the only way the Iraqis could go through the defence was by using low flying missiles fired from close proximity!
