hopefully even airport security will notice the tracked vehicles, associated radars of an SA-11 battery…

Is it USB- blowing over the wings?

Difficult to see.

Well, what you need is to outsource production of the F-22 to China… that way they’d come in way cheaper!

Yes, but the cost of development is largely fixed, and already spent. What I’d be interested in is how much *more* 750 F-22s would cost than 200, and how that compares to designing and building the F-35.

And the less you buy, the higher the unit price goes up…

The Mk 10L is currently fully qualified and approved for installation in the following aircraft:-

Aeritalia AMX, IAI Lavi, Aermacchi 339, IAR Jurom, AMD Mirage, IAR 99, BAe Hawk, Nanchang A5, BAe EAP, Nanchang K8/L8, CASA C101, Nanchang F5, Chengdu F7, Saab JAS39, Embraer/Shorts Tucano, SIAI Marchetti S211, Eurofighter EFA, Sikorsky X-Wing, Gulfstream Perigrine, Soko Super Galeb

lotta Chinese aircraft there..

Despite its metric wavelength, the achieved resolution is high, reportedly 400 m in distance and 0.4 degress in azimuth.

Well thats a lot better than the MiG-29 radar can manage, so I’d say it would suffice for a BVR shot 😉
