How can iran connect their remaining s300 launchers and missiles to a thermal based killchain since radar is a waste of time in this conflict?
>But if they emit waves they can be jammed
Just use long spools of fiber optic and low energy radio waves to stop elint.
We ve seen they can aquire a target but their missiless seem to lack range, Speed and power to explode their target.
The s300 missiles should provide that, while their radar is worthless their warhead and delivery vehicle is not

they can't and your idea is retarded. kill yourself subhuman frogposter.

>>65022625
They have remaining S-300s?

Yes, but its useless because americans are good at targeting radars.
See the chink radars failing.
Though they have Heard what i wrote in other threads and just made drone missiles that aquire targets on their own so there is that

>>65022637
Unfortunately this time i couldn't agree more with fpbp

There could be various franken-sam contraptions, but S-300 isn't even a specific missile and what exactly does op want to replace - only search radar, illumination, or everything? That changes things drastically - like with full passive thermal guidance the missiles need significant changes or even complete overhaul.

>>65022625
They should get a ton of cheap chinese IR SAMs. I bet chinks have some cheap IRIS-T clone.

Complete fantasy. If Iran really had them we would get photos of videos of them getting fucked in one of the million propaganda compilations.
>>
for all the retarded faggots that think IR missiles are a new solution to stealth: you're retarded faggots.
even with extremely high-end western passive IR scanners, you're going to be extremely range limited, the missile's range is not really important. being able to spot a jet's exhaust beyond 15 kilometers in ideal conditions with some shitty thirdoid IR camera is the problem.
and remember, that's in IDEAL conditions, if it's a cloudy day, you're fucked.

>iran getting rekt is propaganda because i say so
the US military has no obligation to show every single thing they've BTFO, they usually just show big ticket items like the boats, because their importance is more easy for normalnigs to digest than radars, to most people radars are this intangible thing that they're sure serves some kind of purpose in the military but don't really understand the importance of.

>>65022819
Dude if they hit latest chinese hardware Trump would gloat about it for weeks.
>>
>>65022829
i don't think trump is smart enough to understand why radars matter in the first place dude, see his obsession with battleships.
anyway, i don't know why it's specifically considered unlikely that the US dogwalked some chinese radars and didn't tell anyone.

Uv light passes through clouds,
And again we know thst western thermals can see as far as 70 km away a sub sonic plane

How much time would they need to study and replicate or modify their thermal missiles to improve range and warhead than,
Since the current videos of their dont shred the Plane immediatly.

>>65022625
First, they don't have any remaining S-300s, and second, hooking their imaginary S-300 systems up to IR cameras wouldn't solve the problem. The launchers would still have to communicate with the missiles, which can be jammed and will also expose the launcher to ARMs.

>>65022625
why would they bother? their whole plan right now and for the foreseable future is blowing up anyone close enough with drones
>>
>>65022625
The tip of an s-300 gets very hot at max speed.
>>
what if they put cameras on their S300s and used them like FPVs

You would need a high frame rate at that speed. You may not be able to see the plane at distance with some shitty FPV camera.
>>
>>65023264
Wait, how fast do you think a missile is flying, and how long do you think it burns fuel before it coasts? This isn't Unreal Tournament, and those are not Redeemers. (lucky for all the Indians out there)

Idk, three maybe four?
