Israel
Air Force has counter-measure for Russian S-300 in Iran

Radar used by S-300 missile battery
"OK,
I know a little bit about surface to air missiles and electronic
countermeasures. ECM from aircraft does indeed work, but the
Russians
are not stupid. This isn't static. As Israeli fighters with
ECM
capabilities are used in normal operations, the Russians will be using
electronic eavesdropping to find out how Israeli ECM works. They
will
make improvements to the Iranian S-300 systems, making the ECM less
effective. Nothing is 100% certain, and the S-300s are bound to
be
able to look through some of the Israeli ECM. The Israelis will
need
to use some capabilities against the S-300s that have never been seen
by the Russians before.
Also,
and this is simply my guess, but since Israel is more likely to instead
use their submarines to launch nuclear-armed cruise missiles to knock
out important Iranian sites, other cruise missiles should
incorporate
ECM jammers to pave the way for the nuclear armed missiles just behind
them." - Skoonj
The Israeli Air Force has the proven ability, unique in the region, to
jam hostile ground, airborne and seaborne radar screens, using counter
measures that would be effective against the Russian S-300 air defense
system and its twin radar systems – if delivered to Iran. DEBKA
Weekly’s next issue out this Friday reveals why the S-300 would be no
bar to an Israeli air strike - any more than similar Syrian air defense
missiles prevented the IAF from demolishing the Iranian-North Korean
plutonium reactor on Sept. 6, 2007 in northern Syria.
The internal ISIS-types you envision will be supported by U.S. armed forces that (via demoralization and purging of those with honor and integrity) are being turned into a mercenary force. Those of us who resist will be branded as Islamophobic bigots (RACISTS!) who must be eliminated.
ReplyDeleteOur Islamo-symp regime will even invite in U.N. troops to help "quell the insurrection" by "so-called patriots". Those of us who still cherish the Constitution and the America we once knew will have to fight with tactics like those used by the Afghanis -- How's that for irony?

It bothers me that we don't have adequate triple A and SAMs on our farm in Mississippi to adequately repel the threat of Russian aircraft.
ReplyDeletePutin is desparate, which concerns me a lot. He could do anything.
I would even settle for a GE mini-gun and a few hundred thousand rounds of 308.
the GE Minigun is an awesome weapon, especially in the door of a Huey or Shithook.
ReplyDeleteRemember the story of the doorgunner in Vietnam who was asked by a reporter, "How can you shoot women and children?" He replied, "It's easy; you just don't lead 'em as much!"

Too bad Israel couldn't buy our surplus EA-6B's. Of course they would have just sold them to China like they do all our other technology. I wouldn't look to the horizon in anticipation of the Hebe cavalry coming to bail America out. But take heart, as soon as an American civilian dies from an Isis attack, Murica will get all warlike and Butchy for the next six months. -Anymouse
ReplyDelete"Anymouse", make sure when your sorry ass gets sick you don't get any "Hebe" doctors, or any medical treatments discovered or developed by "Hebes".
ReplyDeleteAnd when your sorry ass is in jail and you're lookin' through the Yellow Pages for a lawyer, make sure you don't call any of the "Hebe" names.
