Yep. And it works beautifully, as we've just seen.

Anyone knows the name of the second sensor

which one ? The OPS-28M or the TOES-521

@flanker
Checked oem website they say the same

interestingly interesting

must have some kind of thresholds/conditions via sensor inputs which than triggers the evasion selectively

Havent found a lot about the functioning of the L112E and L111E KH31's seekers

But maybe the bolded part about 10g evasiv manoeuvers only concerns the KH-31 anti-ship missile version with an active radar in its final phase of approaching targets , as many modern anti-ship missiles do, it would be more logical

Covert1:
While goodmen died fighting suicidal ISWAP terrorists in soft skin vehicles money meant for weapons acquisition and troops welfare where been siphoned off by leading generals. What is it with every set of Service Chiefs after they leave office we hear of humongous amounts of defence money stolen. If this is confirmed to be true this Burutai deserve to be court martialed and shot in broad day light. What a betrayal of his men. Who knows how many more is hidden by him and the other Generals, Admirals and Air Marshals that served with him.

Gentlemen, frankly I guess I'm getting more and more tired of Nigeria. What happens here continue to abuse the mind. While we are commending Buhari's administration for its massive support for the military official corruption still plagues the sector in fact all sectors in Nigeria. This Buhari reincarnation is not the one we used to know because under his inept presidency the worst forms of corruption are taking place under his nose.

We desperately need a modern thinking administration in Abuja 2023 and discard all this old set of analogue leaders. Deep inside me I fume at the modest pace of our military modernization because I know if the right guy is in Aso Rock the NAF could be flying the 5th Gen. US Lockheed Martin F-35 Aggressors.

ICPC has come out to clear the air on this. However, is it possible that the real person arrested (a military contractor) has some relationship with Buratai hence the misinformation?

Yes
For the anti ship variant it seems more logical

You made the purported answer to your question in same statement. There's no fire without smoke. The earthquake the story would provoke if confirmed officially would reverberate for generations. It would be a massive betrayal of his men in harms way while he held the reins as COAS. Piecing paper and audio trail evidence makes it highly likely grand corruption existed under the last military leadership. The ONSA is on record saying weapons budgeted for can't be accounted for and the late COAS himself before the whole world didnt miss a breath in confirming things were missing and referred the House committee to his predecessor, sadly shortly after that "he died in a plane crash". The strange thing here is the silence of the C-in-C who looks the other way each time Buratai's name is mentioned in graft matters.

Let me give you a brief hiding in plain sight. Amaechi actually has control over Buratai. That connection brought Buratai who served as commander in Rivers State while Amaechi was Governor to Abuja as COAS. The political class have their boys they controlled from different levels of government over the years in sensitive positions. Buratai was on Amaechi's presidential campaign before he lost in the APC primaries. Nigeria's corruption system is so murky it cuts across all sectors. The current APC candidate has his boys too deep within.

Lieutenant General Buratai (rtd) cannot have his name mentioned all the time in association with corruption and something don't stick. Secure calls put through Abuja and Kigali where the president is presently attending CHOGM can see the ICPC promptly come up with a cover story. The Buhari administration is wounding down and may just want to go home without another scandal on its hands. Where is the political opposition parties to do there job.

Everyone has a price. There are always foreign agents backed with hard currency, beautiful women and trained in recruiting spooks to spy on their own government & military. The world of espionage, military intelligence, foreign-intelligence and counter-intelligence networks. Its success or failure can determine the economic wealth of the state, geo-political relevance, military superiority, technological advantage or vulnerability in the event of war.


US ARMY PILOT CAUGHT SPYING FOR CHINA
Ex-Army pilot turned defense contractor sold aviation secrets to China

By Rachel Nostrant

 Jun 24, 05:29 PM

A former Army helicopter pilot with more than 20 years of service has pleaded guilty to working as an agent for the Chinese government after he was caught selling information concerning defense and military aviation projects between 2017 and 2020.

Shapour Moinian, 67, pleaded guilty June 23 to one count of acting as an agent on behalf of a foreign government and two counts of false statements for lying on security clearance documents.

He faces a maximum of 10 years in prison for acting as an agent for China and up to five for the false statements, as well as fines of up to $250,000.

Moinian was recruited in 2016 after messaging with a supposed recruiter at LinkTek Technical Services, in Zhejiang, China, court documents revealed. At the time, he was employed in San Diego by a defense contractor that was permitted to work on projects involving classified information.

Court records did not state the company’s name.

Moinian first met with the Chinese recruiter and her associates in Hong Kong in March 2017, and again in September of that year in Shanghai during a layover on his way to visit his stepdaughter and wife’s family in South Korea. It was during this September visit that Moinian handed over a flash drive with proprietary information from the defense contractor where he was employed.

Moinian agreed to provide information and materials related to multiple types of aircraft designed and manufactured in the U.S. in exchange for money, according to the Justice Department. Moinian also acknowledged in his plea agreement that he knew the individuals he met with were working on behalf of the Chinese government.

Thousands of dollars in payments were made to Moinian through his stepdaughter’s South Korean bank account, which were then transferred over to his U.S. accounts for what Moinian told his stepdaughter were “consulting” fees.

During this time, court documents show Moinian may have also had a romantic relationship with the Chinese national — or Moinian was at least led to believe that was the case.

Messages were exchanged between the two stating that they missed each other and had plans to visit and have her “host him” in her city. Shortly following the discussion about visiting each other, Moinian emailed his contact to let her know he was divorcing his wife.

Later, after returning from another trip to Hong Kong in 2018, Moinian made open source internet searches for “sabotage vs spying,” “espionage vs sabotage,” and “selling military information to foreign country is considered as,” an affidavit revealed.

Court documents also show that Moinian’s now ex-wife claimed he had met with associates in Bali, Taiwan, China and South Korea multiple times between 2017 and 2019. On one occasion, Moinian and his wife smuggled approximately $22,000 in cash back into the U.S., records stated.

In multiple questionnaires Moinian was required to fill out for his security clearance, he was asked, “do you have, or have you had, close and/or continuing contact with a foreign national within the last seven years with whom you, or your spouse, or cohabitant are bound by affection, influence, common interests, and/or obligation?” Moinian answered no.

In a separate question, regarding “Foreign Business, Professional Activities, and Foreign Government Contacts,” Moinian was asked if he “has any foreign national in the past seven years offered you a job, asked you to work as a consultant, or consider employment with them?” He again answered no.

He later acknowledged in his plea agreement that both responses were false statements.

“Mr. Moinian sold information to the Chinese government, and lied repeatedly to cover up his crimes,” NCIS’s Office of Special Projects Special Agent in Charge Michelle Kramer said in a press release. “Now he is being held to account for his actions. NCIS and our partners remain unwavering in our commitment to protecting the U.S. military and rooting out criminality that threatens the superiority of the U.S. warfighter.”

Moinian served in the Army in the U.S., Germany, and South Korea from approximately 1977 through 2000 before entering the defense contracting world.

He was a AH-64 pilot in the Army Reserve from November 1977 to December 1984 and the regular Army from November 1987 to October 2000, said Heather J. Hagan, an Army spokeswoman. He has no combat deployments, Hagan added.

Moinian’s awards included two Meritorious Service Medals, five Army Commendation Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, the Army Good Conduct Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Humanitarian Service Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, three Overseas Service Ribbon and the Master Army Aviator Badge.

Sentencing for Moinian has been scheduled for Aug. 29, 2022.

For some reason, I thought the 54 had more payload weight than the 480kg quoted?
