Mighty_Zuk Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Shouldn't an hypersonic missile have some form of air intakes? Anyway, After selling 12 aircraft to Croatia for $500 million, Israel seems to aim for Colombia as well, for a sale of a roughly similar number of aircraft to replace the IAI Kfir aircraft. http://www.israeldefense.co.il/en/node/33778 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belesarius Posted April 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 SDB II has finished developmental testing. " Weighing 94.3 kg (208 lb), 177 cm (70 in) in length and 17.8 cm (7 in) in diameter, SDB II features a dual-waveform datalink - for in-flight target updates, in-flight re-targeting, weapon in-flight tracking, and weapon abort - flip-out wings to achieve stand-off range, GPS/INS navigation for mid-course guidance, an advanced tri-mode (millimeter wave (MMW), imaging infrared and semi-active laser) seeker for terminal engagement, and a low-collateral, multi-effects warhead. The SDB II design features three attack modes: normal - the primary mode to engage moving targets through weather using MMW radar and IR for terminal guidance; laser illuminated attack – using the laser spot tracker for terminal guidance; and co-ordinated attack mode: to attack fixed or stationary targets at a given set of co-ordinates.
