  1. One thing that urgently needs to be mentionned is that just like aerodynamics, or Armor vs shell behaviour, RCS is never ever to be evaluated by eye. There are so many details going up about how EM waves scanner or get absorbed that not even a general guess can be made when it comes to radar stealth vehicles.

    Egypt is happy with their Rafales and will likely be expanding their order. In particular they were impressed with its ability to jam recently imported Russian jets:

    "A Middle East based magazine Breaking Defense reported quoting Egyptian Air Force sources that Russian Su-35s radar failed repeatedly when Su-35 played a role of aggressor against Rafale F3R. Rafale’s powerful Spectra Electronic attack jammed Su-35 BAR phased array radar."

     

     

    It's called BARS, and it is not mounted on the Su-35. 

    Except they really downgraded the daylights out of it and really installed BARS instead of Irbis.

       Doesn't look like it is attached to a pylon, it gives impression that it is a part of wing.

    Nope it does infact look like it is attached, the colors being clearly segmented

    Unsure about if the gun is Korean modified or not, but as for why L/55 is a standard is because anything longer than that and the gas starts to lose efficiency. Between pressure lost through small gaps, friction on the sabot, and the explosive reaction being complete and no new energy being inputted, anything past 55 calibers means you start to lose energy.

    Okay thank you for the clarification

  5. It has come to my attention that the year is 2021 yet the ideas that "unmanned turret means flawed armor" or "easy prey for firepower kills (at least more so than regular tanks)" are still around. 

     

    Uralvagonzavod is making a huge mistake investing money into years of research and testing based on scientifical principles while they can just hire some internet eye ball expert to tell them what is wrong about their multi million dollar machine.

     

     

  6. Yeah i knew they would never go ahead and make a thermal only AT missile , i always guessed it would be some kind of multi-guided system.

     

    Using a monospectral only missile against a near peer enemy is not recommended , so its good that they're not doing it.

    I need to know , why do they not put ERA blocks behind jammers? Where is the hindrance?
