Look I am a pacifist at heart but all this miltech is fucking sexy
Fuck yeah! I know theyll be put to great use. Burn those little red bitches out of the skies.
I had to look it up, but PIDS sounds very useful.
For everyone who also didn't know: it's a missile detection system with three cameras in each pylon, so almost 360° coverage, and automatic flare/chaff dispensers.
I love seeing that crest on the tail.
Isn't it beautiful?!
Happy hunting!
Head ‘em up! Moooooove ‘em out!
Fuckin go get em!
I guess the D variants are too long range? They might cause an escalation?
D are more expensive than C. Might as well use up your stock piles to build upgraded variants.
R-27ER already has a range of 130KM.
Not sure if you're being sarcastic? We tried holding back pretty much for years but Russia has been escalating regardless. There's no point anymore, the logical thing is to supply everything Ukraine can effectively make use of.
There's just a huge supply of C.
