Whats stopping ADSs from shooting HARMs at aircraft using radar since you can perceive radar from twice the distance the radar can see you just shoot a fuck huge missile that goes hypersonic at the enemy awac

>>64761641But it still forces the enemy to shoot down their awacs, and ir engage a missile coming from 500km away.It gives you better tempo.Why hasnt anyone thought of it.
>>647615971: You can fit a radar emitter on a missile. It's a bit shitty compared to a ground array, but airborne targets are much easier to distinguish than ground targets. You don't need to track their emissions if you can spot them with yours.2: There are more planes in the sky than just your target. If you go yeeting missiles into the wild blue yonder at a solid maybe, you're liable to hit a friendly or an airliner.
>>64761597>passive seeking vs activeBecause radars are either stationary or require them to turn off to move (which is almost as good as killing them) and as such such a missile would be nearly useless against aircraft.
>>64761654Collateral damage isn't something bugs and browns worry about.
>>64761726If you don't care about friendly fire, you're probably going to lose your war.
>>64761597home on jam exists
