HARM Employment v. SA-15
-
Hi StevieG,
The problem I see in doing it this way, might be, that you need a precise location of the SA-15, otherwise you cannot lock it up.This is why you want your buddies Harm in the air. It buys you time to pop up, find, and lock up the TELAR.

I will second both your proposals, Gentlemen…
Stevie’s is the wiser move and lets you to keep yourself always on the safe side (if acted correctly, of course).
But that Lorik’s is far better at the top… that “thinking in Russian”, I love it too much.
You made my day, mon ami,so thank you so much.With best regards to all.

Won’t the SA-15 just be able to shoot down a HARM anyway? Those missiles are very fast, mach 2+ I believe, and are made to shoot down PGMs, cruise missiles, other small targets. I think a HARM would be a poor choice against an SA15 unless you had a wingman weaseling for you. Even then, personally, I would rather come in low and fast with snake eyes using terrain masking if possible. I could be wrong though.

If the SA15 location is unknown when it decides to paint you, will you have time to find the target with the Maverick before it launches on you?

And this is where you can see who saw the ACMI and who didn’t

Probably not, given that the SA15 range is around 12 miles, and those missiles are nigh impossible to dodge.

Who knows? Or better, you just think (in Russian) that the SA15 is destroyed, and boom! Max enjoyment.
Good THINKING !! :tinfoil3:

If you’re talking about BMS, this is the demonstration that there is still room for more digging about SAM. And once again, there’s an ACMI right in this thread.
