https://youtu.be/a1jcwvzbUQw?si=nX09zRfeYVzJSh5KWhile US bases images are coming out Israeli strike images are still hard to come by. Plenty of strike images of Iranian targets on official websites but US bases strikes have been released with many days of delatore for opsecThe loss of minimum one and likely two THAAD radars is particularly noteworthy.
Big fat expensive radars are clearly obsolete in an era of precision weaponsUnless you like playing shoot the drone every single day
>>65017964>The loss of minimum one and likely two THAAD radars is particularly noteworthyAs an owner of RTX stocks..."oh no"
>>65017977yep we need picrel. Nowadays artillery is super mobile for this exact reason, I don't see why we don't do the same with AD
The Italians were so far ahead with the max 40km rocket propelled full auto 75mm AA cannon on a tank body.
>>65017964We already had the perfect anti air. Bofors still produces them. Just bring back the Bofors 40mm and the Orliken 20mm. Slap them all over the decks of ships like the old days and sprinkle them around all the bases. Really, AAA should've never went away. You can never have too many guns.
>>65017964Weren't we supposed to have lost five radars last week? How did the number go down?
I think it's just complacency on America's part. But it boggles my mind why america isn't focussed on putting these sorts of radars on ships or road mobile platforms? AN/TPY-2 is technically road mobile but not something you can do in 20 minutes.But the obvious problem is missing a mobile shorad/spaag type system that can deal with drones. Or why it is not deployed together with a THAAD battery.
>>65017977They were obsolete in the era of cruise missiles.Hence why the airforce was so gungho on stealth, because the only ground radars that could counter stealth would be xbox heug SEAD bait.>>65017999I think stonk heads are going to be in for a rude awakening.Nobody’s obligated to buy your stuff if it keeps getting blown up.The GCC are already starting to be more interested in the Uke’s solutions than they are anything from the Lockmart/Reinmart store.Also we’re entering a bear market anyways.
>>65018819It's a doctrinal issue. They mostly focus on aircraft to deal with drone swarms, so if the AO is saturated with SHORAD that's not keyed into operations, the risk of friendly fire is extremely high. The downside is there's less protection for what leaks through.
>>65018475He got called out enough times for trying to claim that the US "lost" radars owned by other countries, so now he's just talking about the one American THAAD that was destroyed and pretending that there was a second one as well.
>>65017964God the Youtube comments are so cringe.
>>65018849>The GCC are already starting to be more interested in the Uke’s solutions than they are anything from the Lockmart/Reinmart store.No shit, they're not worried about ballistic missiles anymore because Iran doesn't have any left. Now they're looking for defenses against the weapons Iran is actually using.
>>65018849You're talking about two separate issues. Uke anti-shahed tactics are not replacing exo-atmospheric missiles.
>>65017964how can anyone listen to a zoomer foid talk about shit she has no fucking clue about
What is the cost of periodically sterilizing everything in orbit with a nuclear weapon?
>>65018019Its beautiful. Why am I in the large caliber laminate armor timeline and not the radar guided autocannon timeline?
