Hey ! Thanks again for covering our mod. FYI, the S and U TELs on the S-300PS use the same missile, and have the same range. The only difference between both is that one is a "smart" TEL with the needed electronics while the other is a '"dumb" TEL without said eletronics. IRL, a smart TEL is used to control a dumb one, and the dumb one can't fire its missiles alone. This can be seen on the models: the smart TEL have a compartiment behind the driving position while the dumb one just has a spare wheel. In DCS, both TELs work identically.

S-125 can fire multiple missiles at a time. At a single target only, however. Don't know why this is moddeled incorectly. But, it was standard practice for us to engage every target with two missiles in 1999. Was it called dual channel guidance, or guidance via two channels. Something like that, translations are rough, and so is my English.

Same for the S-75. 6 launchers per battery, up to 3 can be launched at a target at the same time, just a few seconds apart.

Excuse me, one additional remark. Just try to imagine the situation back then: the Soviet Union was much poorer than the US and had a clear lag in terms of electronics. By the time the US and UK used integrated circuits in their missiles, the USSR still had to work with vacuum tubes. This was not because soviet engineers were not good enough. In terms of knowledge there was no difference, but the soviet industry could not produce high-tech with consistent quality and in the required quantity. Some production batches of the same piece of equipment were good, others were disaster. So the soviet engineers had to achieve the same efficiency than their NATO colleagues, but using a one generation earlier electronics. And they almost did it. That is why these engineers behind these systems deserve the respect of our generation.

@championknife

2 жыл бұрын

a little different, the backlog in electronics in the USSR was 5 years, this is actually not much. The fact is that the USSR was waiting for the US attack, which means it must withstand the first strike of an atomic weapon. At that moment, neither the USSR nor the United States had solid-state electronics that could withstand the electromagnetic pulse of a nuclear explosion. But this impulse was well withstood by lamp equipment, so the army adhered to lamp circuits to the last. I will shock you, but I personally saw equipment on ships, including logic circuits made on pneumatics. These circuits did not respond to nuclear explosions at all.

I found that pure notching doesn't always work. It's also a good idea to make the missiles bleed some speed by turning around midway through their flight and make them lead you the other direction while you maintain a high speed. Then at the last moment you do a high G turn and they just can't keep up. This doesn't work for SA-15s and similar short range missiles of course.

Love this video for its explanation between models. Obviously the caps and lims aren't going to be accurate because it's a game and based of unclassified info I'm sure, but still liked it. A NATO video would be awesome to pair this with!

Basically my favorite video ever here. Russian air defense has become a love of mine. I read somewhere about the Russians having to concentrate on surface to air defense because there was no possible way to compete with American fighter jet technology due to costs mainly. The Russians are able to build large quantities of these air defense systems for much less money. Also, systems like the pantsir and other SPAAGs can double as anti-infantry/armor weapons. Nothing like 23mm cannons being fired at some poor souls. Unfortunately I have been able to see this done on many occasions with the whole mounting of 23mm cannons on beautiful Hiluxes in the middle east. Thanks for this video. I dont think as much info is out there about the chinese capabilities but hopefully in the future it will be readily available.

@kiro9257

It's true that Russia's AA systems are unable to compete w/ American jet technology that's why there are multitudes of AA systems to compensate for it. An example would be the S400, in many videos it's always seen alone and vulnerable to the F-35. In reality, there are different AA systems present to support the S400.

I will exclude American stealth aircraft from the conversation because they can easily defeat and penetrate Russian airspace unseen, so I will consider 4th gen aircraft only; Many of America's 4th generation aircraft can be fitted to conduct electronic warfare and anti-radiation combat missions. What that means is there will be a swarm of American jets at the front of a formation all fitted with equipment to jam any kind of ground radar, and then behind them is the second swarm of jets fitted with missiles that will lock onto any source of radar coming from the ground. These are called HARM missiles, and America's harm missiles are capable of tracking and destroying surface to air targets even after their radar is deactivated. So the old tactic of fire and then turn your radar off is completely ineffective against American weapons.
