It was designed to be used in conjunction with the Su-24's L-086A "Fantasmagoria A" or L-086B "Fantasmagoria B" target acquisition system. [1] The range achieved depends heavily on the launch altitude, thus the original Kh-58 has a range of 36 km from low level, 120 km from 10,000 m (32,800 ft), and 160 km from 15,000 m (49,200 ft).
As an aircraft maneuvers closer to a SAM site and is scanned by the radar for longer periods, the quality of the HTS pod's report of the location of the SAM site increases. This is represented by the PGM (Position Quality) number. [citation needed] A single F-16 is capable of attaining a PGM5 track, the lowest quality track, up to PGM2.
The AN/ALE-50 towed decoy system is an electronic countermeasure tool designed by Raytheon to protect multiple US military aircraft from air-to-air and surface-to-air radar-guided missiles. [1] The AN/ALE-50 towed decoy system is an anti-missile countermeasures decoy system used on U.S. Air Force , Navy , and Marine Corps aircraft, and by ...
However, in January 1963 the Berezniak design bureau (which became MKB Raduga in 1967) was tasked with developing such a missile as part of the K-28P weapon complex based around a "Wild Weasel" version of the Yak-28 'Brewer' bomber (hence -28; the 'K' stands for kompleks, P stands for protivradiolokatsyonny 'anti-radar').
The R-37 (missile) (AA-13 'Arrow') is an evolution of their R-33 (AA-9 'Amos') with a range of up to 400 km (220 nmi), and there have been persistent rumours – if little hard evidence – of an air-to-air missile with a range of 200 km (110 nmi) based on Zvezda's Kh-31 anti-radar/anti-shipping missile or its Chinese derivative, the YJ-91.
AGM-45 Shrike is an American anti-radiation missile designed to home in on hostile anti-aircraft radar.The Shrike was developed by the Naval Weapons Center at China Lake in 1963 by mating a seeker head to the rocket body of an AIM-7 Sparrow.
The AN/TPS-43 is a ground-based, non-fixed (i.e.: transportable) search radar. [ n 1 ] [ 1 ] The entire system can be broken down and packed into two M35 trucks for road transport. An updated version replacing the original shaped reflector and organ-pipe scanner with a phased array antenna was originally known as the TPS-43E2, but emerged as a ...
The Kh-31 (Russian: Х-31; AS-17 'Krypton') [7] is a Soviet and Russian air-to-surface missile carried by aircraft such as the MiG-29, Su-35 and the Su-57.It is capable of Mach 3.5 and was the first supersonic anti-ship missile that could be launched by tactical aircraft.
