Buk-M3 at Army-2016

Hull plating’s probably like 20 to 25mm at max., high-tensile steel. Not meant to be an armour, nor would it deflect shells except from extreme ranges.

Use the latest actually observed combat radius from the most recent SAR report- 620+ nmi on the USAF mission profile.
I’m talking about termynology. LM clearly describes Range as ~2*Radius, not Range = Radius.
Range = radius
Ferry range = maximum one way distance without having to fly back to baseAirplane range are in Nautical Miles (nm). 1 nm =~1.8 km
And again, LM thinks otherwise: https://a855196877272cb14560-2a4fa819a63ddcc0c289f9457bc3ebab.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/13537/f35a_2.pdf
Combat radius (internal fuel) ….. >590 n.mi / 1,093 km
Range (internal fuel)……….. >1,200 n.mi / 2,200 km
2200 km * 0.35 = 770 km
2200 это ПЕРЕГОНОЧНАЯ ДАЛЬНОСТЬ – FERRY RANGE! =) Эх, Саша, Саша. Это ничего, что перегоночная конфигурация отличается от боевой полным отсутствием вооружений и максимальным запасом топлива, в том числе в ПТБ? Тебя там две с лишним тысячи галлонов(>8000л) топлива в конфигурации Ferry Range – не смутили, не?
Ну ты, блин, даешь.
F-35A range of flight 1850 – 2100 km, radius 35% range 650 – 735 km
Su-30MKM range of flight 3000 km, radius 1050 km

There is a RuAF thread for such news, ya know…

Documentary about Pantsir SAM. Some interesting footage but you better to not to know Russian coz reporter is telling too much of bull****.
Ka-52’s public demo-flight at Aviadarts-2016 with a…live-fire, LOL. :stupid:
Unpaved airfield built in the South Military District, during the last readiness check. That rare moment when you recall what’s the real purpose of this huge landing gear.
You say the radar is not part of any SAM system – the manufacturer says that it is one of its roles. I choose to believe the manufacturer, and see no point in playing verbal games with phrases like “It may be complexed”.
Manufacturer of WHAT??? Coz Iskra, the company developer and producer of 36D6 is NOT a developer and producer of S-300. Surprise! Its like LM will declare AN/TPS-77 as a part of Raytheon’s Patriot SAM.
The manufacturer of the radar does not seem to agree with you. As you can see below, the wording in the radar’s publicity material says that one the radar’s roles is to be used “as part of” SAM systems. Later it acknowledges that the radar can also operate “as a stand-alone control post”.
Just to make sure than this was not a slip of the keyboard by the manufacturer, I checked two other documents they have released, and all use similar wording.
This info was taken from a brochure describing the current 36D6-M version, but I do not think that the radar’s role changed with the ‘M’ upgrade.
May be you should read what developer of S-300 thinks? Coz during Soviet times 36D6 never was a part of S-300 or any other SAM and now it’s(36D6-M) even a foreign system(Ukrainian) and only due to this fact it can’t be a part of S-300 or any other Russian SAM. It may be complexed with them, in one AD-network, yes. But it’s NOT a part of any SAM. And never was.
LOL! It is still an associated S-300 radar
“Obstinacy is a virtue of donkeys.” (c)
It’s as “associated” with S-300 as with any other Soviet/Russian SAM. And even with foreign ones.
Oh, look at this! Georgians had S-300! Coz this is part of S-300, rrrright???
Actually, they’re posting good stuff during their dispute. Let them continue doing this here.
