name another stealth fighter with more air kills
>>65599383how do these guys even know what they're aiming at that's such a blurry mess
>>65599389its notIDF censorship are retarded , they downscale and blur all videos and UI elements in videos even when not required just to cover their ass 'just in case'.
>>65599389A lot of that is censorship added later. It’s also common practice to downgrade the resolution of these sorts of images so adversaries don’t know exactly how good your optics are. It was something of a scandal during Trump’s first term when he showed off original resolution satellite images on twitter as the resolution really wasn’t something the spooks wanted known
>>65599425If they wanted it a secret it shouldn't have been approved for him to release.
>>65599425>>65599424Ah I see. I just assume they can read the size on my underwear tag when I bend over and they're having space wars with rocket launching satellites right over my head.
>>65599433not really nothing israel has can resolve anything smaller than ~25cm be it in their optical or their radar satellites. they can see your car and people in it but not smaller details
>>65599383Isn't this video old af?
>>65599425Eh, resolution isn’t that big of a deal. OSINT nerds (and by extension glowies) knew roughly what resolution they could reach based on optical physics and public information like lens diameter..It’s the image processing that’s the real secret sauce.
What the fuck were they thinking flying a trainer when they knew full well the sky wad full of sir superiority fighters????
>>65599485I like to think that some high-ranking officer at the IRIAF just hated the Yak pilot, so he sent him to his certain death.
>>65599432It wasn’t. They didn’t declassify it for years even after he posted it. There just isn’t anyone in the executive that can really tell the president no.
>>65599445they recently revealed details about it, the yak pilot survived and ejected over snowy mountains north of tehran>>65599464the HMDs and displays used these days in military shit (especially avionics) are just using DVI so its either 1920x1200 or 2560x1600. millitary tech uses it because its free off the shelf and they dont want to develop their own video standards or depend on newer ones that require approval\licensing. you'd be surprised how much brand new millitary shit today uses tech from 1998
>>65599608I was referring to satellites.
>>65599485Muslims crave martyrdom. I can't think of many better uses for my tax dollars.
>>65599389It sort of also probably is shit for the sensor in question. There is basically no discussion of it online at all, but if you're an optics nerd you can infer some stuff and it kind of suggests that the DAS on F35 probably produces pretty meh images.
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>65599383Su-57I just know I'll get b& for this
>>65600019The F-22 got to be the most blue balled military plane in recent history. Well, maybe right behind the A-10 when the russian convoy to Kjiv was stuck for weeks.
>>65600028OP asked about stealth fighters, not an aircraft with the RCS of a clean superhornet.
>>65600078I guess you know better than the engineers who designed them, or Ukrainian radar operators, who have never detected one
>>65600082>Ukrainian radar operators, who have never detected oneThis isn't the own you think it is
>>65600045At least it got one A2A kill…
>>65600082>have never detected oneBecause it’s a hangar queen and doesn’t do jackshit lmao.
>>65600092kill = shoot down a manned aircraftshooting baloons isnt a kill
>>65600614You'd think that, but the tradition of counting balloons as kills comes from WWI where artillery observers positioned at those altitudes were not only responsible for a huge percentage of casualties on your side but they were also surrounded by tons of anti-air to protect them from fighters.Becoming a balloon buster was not only necessary to protect the lives on your comrades on the ground, but also carried considerable risk, so it was seen as prestigious and you could reach Ace status with balloon kills.
>>65599383Do you think they still managed to eject? Around this time there were 2 chutes spotted on video over and near Tehran. Wonder if it was them or something else.
>>65600298Now now, to give the Felon some credit it did shoot down that UAV when it tried to defect to Ukraine
>>65599433There are physics limits of optical systems, best case you get ~5cm resolution before you hit the diffraction limit.In reality due to mirror size limits so they fit in current farings you get ~20cm resolution, this makes a car ~100 pixles wide and ~200 pixles long so it still looks pretty good when zoomed out enough to see a carpark.
>>65603058>diffraction limit.>he doesn't know>>65599464>It’s the image processing that’s the real secret sauce.at this point there is no reason to believe that inference is not deterministic in the quantum sense.
>>65603070>he doesn't knowLink me a paper saying the diffraction limit has been exceeded by an optical system or fuck off.
>>65603072it got taken down when they got folded in to darpa, but that was back in the oughties. ~2008 iirc
>>65603072ok here's when we figured that shit outhttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/249655419_Resolving_Power_and_Informationplease note the year of publication
>>65603107>single mirror limits can be exceeded by two mirrors aimed less than the resolution limit apartYou don't say, now you just need two 5 meter + mirrors aimed with 0.0138 arcsecond accuracy.
>>65599389electronic signature
>>65603173https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Zenith_Telescopeyour ideas about what we can and cannot do are unimaginative and comically timelagged. we're out here hacking the Planck constants and you're still hung up on flying cars
>>65603268>liquid-mirror telescopeDo you understand anything about this or just ask a slopbot for a comeback?You are going to be using liquid-mirrors on orbit are you?
>>65603282>liquid-mirrors on orbit are you?yes
>>65599383low key respect to the dude who had the balls to take off in a fucking trainer when F-35's are lurking.
>>65603299
>>65603321>he doesn't know
>>65603338>0.0138 arcsecond accuracy with gravitational variation, micro-gravity and solar winds
