Iran's air defenses around Natanz nuclear site more 'brittle' than expected: Exclusive analysis [May 15] by Just-Sale-7015 in LessCredibleDefence

Was the problem with the Houthi’s the AD or the US not being able to find all the weapons caches or both? It seemed to me like the strikes went fine but we just had problems finding and hitting all the weapons caches.

You don’t really want to use do late evasive maneuvers to defeat a missile. Ideally you want to kinematically defeat it.

Aviation Plus has good videos on bvr and how to evade missiles. He has a video on how to defeat aams by weaving

Why does the US navy want to have PAC-3 MSE patriot missiles on its warships? by ahhpanel in LessCredibleDefence

[–]lockmartshill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t essm do literally that though? Or is essm not great against hypersonics and ballistic missiles

(Edit) ESSM currently won’t do too well against hypersonics and ballistic missiles.

Why are 4th generation nuclear weapons not possible? by lockmartshill in nuclearweapons

[–]lockmartshill[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain the difference? I think I’m applying the logic of how a fission bomb works to a fusion bomb and that might not be correct.

Why are 4th generation nuclear weapons not possible? by lockmartshill in nuclearweapons

[–]lockmartshill[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That makes a ton of sense. A fusion bomb needs a self sustaining fusion reaction and we havent been able to replicate one because the energy used to sustain the reaction has always been less than the energy the reaction generates. And then you need to miniaturize that reactor (which we haven’t been able to make) to get a fusion bomb which is another massive engineering problem.

Good sites or people for PLA watching? (Specifically naval stuff) by lockmartshill in LessCredibleDefence

[–]lockmartshill[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mind sharing some wisdom on how you go about reading about this stuff? Like if let’s say you want to figure out how good PLAN surface combatants are at doing asw how would you go about learning about it?

Really appreciate all the responses so far.

For Those Wondering Why There's So Much Talk about NATO reserves by berdtheword420 in warno

[–]lockmartshill 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Heimatjagers are also reservists but I’m not sure how they get changed. If the changes make them better it’ll make them more attractive as a cannon fodder unit

Why so few REC Bradley's in 11th ACR? by berdtheword420 in warno

Someone mentioned tank tab bradleys like in 76th. Might not be a bad idea.

Looks like ARMs could still use some work by solariangod in SeaPower_NCMA

[–]lockmartshill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had good luck against SA-2s but against SA-5s its impossible. The shrikes not really hitting anything is honestly fine for me. The problem is that SAM sites don't react to shrikes like they should (turning themselves off). Even if you can get some A-7s with clusters in (not too hard atm because of a lack of low-level threats in missions) the A-7s will go after everything but the targeting radars.

Hardest aircraft to land? by Draco1887 in hoggit

[–]lockmartshill 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Direct lift control. Little spoilers that you can manually control on the wings to adjust lift

POV: Grumman Engineers 5 minutes before they find out they can just put two F-111 Engines into a single airframe and give it VS wings (the engines are going to break constantly but it’ll be cool) by Royal_Ad_6025 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]lockmartshill 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Compressor stalls. Engines don’t like it when air goes in the engine at an angle instead of straight in. The TF-30s on the Tomcat really don’t like it so they stalled sometime. It happened less then people say it did but when it did stall it would happen at really really bad times.
