Now this is hilarious!! [b]Britain's 'Unique' Missiles Have Killed No Daesh Militants The radar-guided "smart missiles" quoted among the reasons for the UK to take part in the airstrikes campaign in Syria have so far killed no Daesh fighters. The response to a freedom of information (FOI) request by the Huffington Post UK has revealed that no recorded casualty has been attributed to the Brimstone missile since the start of the strikes in December. In the FOI answer, the UK Ministry of Defense said that only seven people have been hit by British strikes so far— it is unknown whether they were killed or just wounded. Five of the casualties resulted from US- made Hellfire missiles, while the remaining two were brought about by Paveway IV bombs. Brimstone missiles— £100,000-each — resort to radar and laser technology to hit targets precisely. They had previously been extolled by cabinet figures, including Prime Minister David Cameron, who said that they would "cut off the head of the [Daesh] snake". The government actually built part of its case for British intervention on the Brimstone missiles. Since only the UK and Saudi Arabia have access to these particular missiles, the cabinet’s narrative went, the RAF's intervention could actually make a difference. Tory minister David Jones described Brimstones as "unique", while the PM called them "some of the most accurate weapons known to man". It was claimed that such accuracy would reduce civilian kills and reliably hit faraway targets. This argument had nonetheless been disputed ahead of the vote, because Brimstone's anti-tank capabilities can cause harm to other than its intended target. The FOI response said that the much- touted missiles have so far been used only in nine strikes. In addition, the Brimstone missiles' deployment was not kick-started until January, more than a month after the British Parliament voted for the intervention.[/b] 1 Like |

Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by Nobody: 12:26am On Jun 14, 2016 |
africaken254:Lol I get your point. So because Book Haram seized a town in Niger, it is Nigeria's fault? FYI, Book Haram does not exist only in Nigeria, they are also in Cameroon, Niger and Chad. You cannot blame Nigeria if Niger's Book Haram attacks Nigerien army positions. And yes, Book Haram has been depleted in Nigeria. They have not seized any town or gain control over any military facility in Nigeria since June 2015. |

Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by Nobody: 9:25am On Jun 14, 2016 |
africaken254:I do not know were you get out news from, but if you follow DHQ on Facebook, you will get a clue on what's happening now. I never said Cameroon, Niger and Chad are unsafe, I only said that Book Haram operates in those countries. In fact, all the countries in the Lake Chad Basin have come together to form a multinational joint task force with the sole aim of tackling Book Haram. Some Nigerians left their homes for neighbouring countries when Bomo Haram was seizing their communities, those people have started coming back. I have not heard of people leaving their communities for other countries due to Boko Haram since at least, January 2016. So my friend, it is not true that Book Haram is as powerful as you think and no it is not Nigeria's fault if they attack another country. |

chinese8107: CM-400AKG claim from wikipedia "The CM-400AKG is an air-launched supersonic surface attack cruise missile, believed to be the export version of the YJ-12.[12] The 910 kg (2,000 lb) missile is 0.4 m (1.3 ft) in diameter and has a range of between 54–130 nmi (62–150 mi; 100–241 km) while carrying either a 150 kg (330 lb) blast or 200 kg (440 lb) penetration warhead. It has three guidance options, including inertial navigation system (INS) coupled with satellite positioning to get within 50 m, an onboard IR/TV seeker for terminal guidance and 5 m accuracy, and passive radar to supplement the seeker, which delivers (strangely worse) 5-10 m accuracy. One unusual characteristic is that it does not fly at low altitude to avoid detection, but rather uses “high altitude launching” to achieve “higher aircraft survivability.”[13] It may have a top speed of Mach 5.[14]" 1.Firstly, CM-400AKG has not yet been qualified on the JF-17 Thunder. there are no reports till now, CM-400AKG has been shown next to JF17 in airshows only. 2.till now all existing operational supersonic ASCMs to date like, Taiwans Hsiung Feng-3/Brave Wind-3 , Russias Kh-41 Zubr , Russias Novator , 3M54E Klub-S/N , india/russias BrahMos , Japan’s Mitsubishi ASM-3 etc all make use of on-board active radar seekers for terminal guidance how come CM400AKG can claim to utilize IIR seeker , any long-range fire-and-forget supersonic,hypersonic missile can only employ active radar for terminal guidance & not IIR, simply because no missile-based IIR sensor has the kind of target detection/lock-on range (of up to 26km). Such sensors exist only on board laser designator pods & therefore cannot be made to fit on-board a missile the size of CM-400AKG. 3.the CM-400AKG impact velocity cannot be hypersonic if an IIR sensor is employed for the terminal flight-phase. It can be hypersonic ONLY if climbs to a high altitude & undertakes a high-speed dive on the target (i.e.top-attack mode by using an X-band synthetic aperture radar) 4.if the missile has a digital scene-matching system, then it stands to reason that it cannot also have an on-board active radar for terminal guidance, a fact clearly borne out by external visual examination of the CM-400AKG air-frame. operational scenario of CM-400AKG keeping in view its stated operating profile "carrier killer" "The 910kg/2,000lb CM-400AKG, possessing a engagement envelope of 240km (130nm) a maximum cruise speed of Mach 4, airframe diameter of 0.4 metres, and 200kg blast-penetration warhead, has been designed to be launched when the JF-17 reaches cruise speeds of between 750kph and 800kph at altitudes of between 26,200 feet and 39,400 feet. While its on-board RLG-INS offers a CEP of 50 metres (164 feet) during the mid-course navigation phase, the CEP reportedly gets reduced to 5 metres when the IIR seeker is activated during the terminal guidance phase. " how does it stand in reality If it is imperative that the JF-17 attain an altitude of near to 40000 feet in order to launch its two CM-400AKGs in ripple-fire mode, the element of surprise will be lost very early since the missile is not sea-skimming and will be detected by warship-mounted active phased-array volume search radars quite easily, while the airborne launch platform JF-17 will be easily located and tracked by AEW platforms while the JF-17s are still 250km away from the target. And lastly, the JF-17 will have to continue cruising at medium altitudes so that the underbelly data-link pod can continue to maintain line-of-sight contact with the CM-400AKG’s on-board IIR imagery transmitter, which further puts the launch platform at risk of being shot down. a SAM or AAM fired at it will force the launch platform to take evasive maneuver thus breaking the datalink. CM-400 AKG is acknowledged as a derivative of YJ-82 anti-ship missile and its speed is not mach-5.5, its only mach 0.9 initially then 2.2 mach , and then it attains the maximum mach 5.5 speed only in the terminal phase when it takes a steep dive and that is why the the manufacturer/OEM brochure mentions "average speed" to make it look deadly. also it is not comparable to other supersonic cruise missiles or anything subsonic ASCM used worldwide because all of them travel a few meters higher above sea in terminal stage (sea skimming). but it is a good weapon against static targets on ground over lightly defended airspace 1 Like |

nganduh: " Firstly, CM-400AKG has not yet been operationally qualified on the JF-17 Thunder. there are no reports till now. " i missed the word "operationally" or simply combat ready and fully integrated with the launch platform to allow full exploitation of CM-400AKG capabilities. one of the reasons being there is no mention of data link pod which will be required to communicate with CM-400AKG’s on-board IIR imagery transmitter. has its integration to to the jf17 finished or is it still a work in progress. also carrying a weapon in flight is in no way a sign that the said weapon is fully qualified for launch from the carrying platform. the subject is too vast to explain here. do you have pictures of CM-400AKG fitted to operational PLAAF aircraft's , i never saw one. nor have i come across any reports of being test fired from jf 17, lots of test fire is required for any missile to qualify for the term carrier killer both against static and moving targets at sea. in the end i could be wrong or i could be right and nganduh: where? and the picture is very hazy cant make out anything. for the record my post was in reply to chinese8107 claim that CM-400AKG is on par with existing supersonic cruise missile , which it is not , it is not even in the same category, since CM-400AKG is more of a ballistic missile not even close to being a cruise missile, actually the CM-400AKG is an air-launched derivative of the SY-400 tactical ballistic missile. i wanted to prove chinese8107 claim as wrong which i did by the way why r the chinese inducting yj-12 and yj-18 in large numbers and not CM-400AKG? |

nemesis2u:not operational qualified? how do you know Paistan not equipt it? must they tell you? no report is not supprise. even if they report it ,somebody may not believe it. I mean in terns of speed at par with BrahMos-1 ,as for the range it could be 250km plus or further the cm400akg is a ballistic missle like you said rather than a curise missle like BrahMos, yes it could work at ballistic mode to lunch from a high attitude.but how do you know it's not capable working at low attitude above sea level ? Just because the manifacturer doesn't provide additional information? Though It is different from brahmos in the engaging mode ,no have 90 degree REVERSE SLOPE targeting capability probably to save cost yet the terminal phase speed is not lower than BrahMos-1 this is just your assumption And lastly, the JF-17 will have to continue cruising at medium altitudes so that the underbelly data-link pod can continue to maintain line-of-sight contact with the CM-400AKG’s on-board IIR imagery transmitter, which further puts the launch platform at risk of being shot down. a SAM or AAM fired at it will force the launch platform to take evasive maneuver thus breaking the datalink.again this is your assumption too.The manufaturer no mention,but simply say "fire and forget" which means you can set back after launching the missle no need to worry about datalink.if there is no sattlite-link there must be other means of datalink. YJ-12 is a bigger brother of CM-400AKG has 400km range and sattlite-link with speed at mach 4. And YJ-18 up to 500KM

chinese8107: classified lol google chinese8107: then why the OEM brochure handed in defence expo mentions "average speed" chinese8107: laws of physics it is going to be same for Russian, us, Japanese and yes Chinese missiles too. chinese8107:ur assumption chinese8107: lol nice excuse , main excuse is limitations of maneuverability of a ballistic missile , the trajectory (flight path) of a ballistic missile and the main reason why u have cruise missiles to overcome all these limitation. again laws of physics chinese8107: there is no dearth of stupid people like me in this world who unfortunately will take the claims of any weapon manufacturers marketing tactic with a pinch of salt. lol forget about IIR , what about mid course guidance ? how on earth r u going to get the missile to the targets last known general location grid at a distance of 250km so that it can turn on it on board seeker for target scan and then positive target lock . how is the launch aircraft going to provide mid course guidance? now according to u we can infer that the missile has a super super seeker which can achieve target lock at 250km lol man that is awesome and true fire and forget technology congrats i want to buy it. lastly lets forget this discussion i hereby admit i am wrong let the other readers have some fun 1 Like |
Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by chinese8107: 10:44pm On Jun 28, 2016 |
nemesis2u:I have no question about the average speed, the high terminal speed is due to diving on the target,I am not against this concluntion .I never said your judgement is wrong,I just said there is no more information provided by the manufacturer.but simply the figure mach 4-5. The terminal phase speed not slow. how fast is the brahmos-1? the middle course guidence is INS/GPS/BEIDOU multiple, and that's sattlite-link.The terminal guodence is rader/IR/TV combine. In terninal phrase the build-in computer will check the rader/IR/TV information and recognize the target automaticlly. according to wikipedia (cm-400akg) : INS coupled with satellite positioning to get within 50 m, an onboard IR/TV seeker for terminal guidance and 5 m accuracy, and passive radar to supplement the seeker, which delivers (strangely worse) 5-10 m accuracy |
Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by chinese8107: 11:13pm On Jun 28, 2016 |
if the missile has a digital scene-matching system, then it stands to reason that it cannot also have an on-board active radar for terminal guidance, a fact clearly borne out by external visual examination of the CM-400AKG air-frame.I beg you the wikipedia said it's a passive rader
who told you that? if this is ture it is not "fire-and-forget "missle. Most SAM or AAM don't have that range as S-300 or AIM -120D can shot about 200km ,very few latest can reach 300 km .their rader may detect you, but you are 250-300km away,in most case no need to take evasive maneuver.otherwise it's not "standoff weapon"
|
Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by Nobody: 6:43am On Jun 29, 2016 |
chinese8107: passive radar or active radar does not make any difference , the small size of the nose, hence size of the radar array and hence the resultant reduced emitted power of any air to ground missile limits their range to less than 30km generally. fire and forget is s marketing term , because true fire and forget capability is limited by seeker capability and size and other parameters. eg javlin is a true fire and forget missile because it can lock on target at less than 3km before launch, then u fire it and forget about it. if the target is at 10km and even if the javlin had enough fuel to travel 10km , it will not be able to lock on target at 10km because its seeker acquisition range is less than 3km. hence not fire and forget. the american can put a bigger seeker but that is not possible because of design and power limitations. hence how the hell is anybody gonna lock on a target from a distance of 250km away . standoff weapon is ok but depends on the enemies radar capacity ,also what if enemy air assets are already flying CAP missions near by. battle spaces r not about one to one mission but multi faceted and dynamic, full of surprises, any aircraft which needs to fly at 40000 feet to launch a particular missile will be detected 90% of the time. |
Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by chinese8107: 7:19am On Jun 29, 2016 |
nemesis2u:you konw INS/GPS guidence mean ? I bet you not (Inertial Navigation Systems, unlike other navigation systems, do not depend on external (radio) measurements. Instead an INS keeps track of its position by accurately measuring acceleration (accelerometers) and rotation (gyroscopes). It therefore works in remote areas where there are no ground based navaids available. Initially, the INS gets its position from pilot input at the gate, or in more recent systems from GPS, sometimes even during flight. By measuring all the accelerations and rotations and integrating them into speed and direction the position is tracked. In doing this, the INS has to correct for the rotation of the earth and the related Coriolis force.) http://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/2275/what-is-an-inertial-navigation-system-how-does-it-work You don't have to lock a target at begainning. Just input the approximate GPS position of the target,during the flight the updated GPS information could be provied via satellite datalink ,the missle fly to there.only after arriving the approximate positon the missle's built-in terminal guience system like IR/TV or radar begain to work automaticlly.hence no need to worry about the terminal guidence range.If the provided GPS data is accurate enough,the missle fly right-up on the enemy's head. INS/GPS can work alone without other means of guidence like IR/TV seeker or rader as long as the provided data is accurate.some famous INS/GPS weapon eg US JDAM or China LS-6 is combined with a unguied bomb and an INS/GPS kit GPS GLONASS BEIDOU are major 3 satellite datalink and guidence system on earth provide by USA Russia China respctively.

Such sensors exist only on board laser designator pods & therefore cannot be made to fit on-board a missile the size of CM-400AKG. What do you mean IIR ? integrated IR ? according to the meterial I got, the terminal guidance could be either radar or IR/TV not limited only to IR. I guess your knowllege is based on Russian-Indian technology developed form the old soviet technology which is different from US or China. "The 910kg/2,000lb CM-400AKG, possessing a engagement envelope of 240km (130nm) a maximum cruise speed of Mach 4, airframe diameter of 0.4 metres, and 200kg blast-penetration warhead, has been designed to be launched when the JF-17 reaches cruise speeds of between 750kph and 800kph at altitudes of between 26,200 feet and 39,400 feet.

" how does it stand in reality the mid-course guidance is INS/GPS/BEIDOU combined or simply INS only if GPS/BEIDOU not avillable. You may think onboard INS offering CEP 50m gets reduced to 5 metres in the end not possible.But I think it's possible because only China and US UK have the cutting edge INS technology.That could be quantum positioning system(QPS) 1000 times more accurate than GPS. even the RLG-INS technology China is more davanced than most EU counties http://en.cnki.com.cn/Article_en/CJFDTOTAL-JCGC200405008.htm https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg22229694-000-quantum-positioning-system-steps-in-when-gps-fails/ |

chinese8107: yes i dont know about INS that is why i mentioned it in the very first post ................. nemesis2u: you got me to side track from the main point of discussion that is CM-400AKG is no way comparable to modern supersonic cruise missiles. what ever u say , i will have my doubts because CM-400AKG is fitted with all possible techs INS/GPS, PASSIVE RADAR , IR , TV , SATCOM LINK , DATALINK. it is too good to be true. brimestone comes with dual sensor and lol this one comes with triple sensors something which far advance countries r still researching. do u know how the TV sensor works, it will take in live feed of the target and then what? IR sensor? lol it can be then easily decoyed , no worries than. it is a deadly missile i accept |

nemesis2u: The missle must be stay in contact by any means.If satellite link like GPS/BEIDOU not avilable or interfered/jammed.Then data-link, could be the old Soviot way or any other way。In fact China has the latest data-link with high speed battlefield encrypted intranet connection compared with US link-16/Link-22 not bad at all.If other ways avilable no need the old Soviet way The following pic. A commando is locating the enemy's position on his portable militray computer with GPS/BEIDOU satellitte link and high speed intranet to guide a missle.The same technology USA applied in war. It is as simple as you share you GPS position with friends on your smartphone.

nemesis2u: I said at par with BrahMos-1.I never said better than other modern supersonic cruise missiles. each of them have their own charicristics.The CM-400akg's manufacturer simply said" fly under all range control in atmospheric layer" .Does it contain Sea skimming mode that only fly at low alttitude above sea to aviod detaction ? The manufacturer leaving readers guessing.No supprise if variants have. Let's assume that it could climb a high altitude and dive into a target to achieve a higher speed of mach 5 instead of Sea skimming mode that could probablely only reach mach 2 . Which one is more deadly and prefered? |
Re: African Militaries Strictly Discussions Thread. by chinese8107: 10:47am On Jul 02, 2016 |
