Sir,
Educate me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ho gaye 30 characters.
From Finnish forum...sorry for google translation....
I would say the fact that the TST the helicopter golden age of the culmination hit almost exactly the Persian Gulf war in 1991. During the Cold War, the West was developed TST hekojen armament, technique and tactics of mirnaansa, as a result of the 1991 Gulf War, AH-64A Apachet work quite as effective "purkinaavaajina" Iraqi T-72 and other armored equipment received. AH-64D Apache Longbow may be considered as the pinnacle of technical development period. The ability to shoot several kilometers to get 16 different goals at the same time Hellfire missile 30 seconds of their detection in all weather and lighting conditions at the end of the 1990s, the real cutting edge technology. To my knowledge, this day another battle helicopter, none can match.
However, the Soviet Union, the threat of massive armored forces almost completely fell into oblivion in the West for 15 years, as did the new TST hekoprojektien financing. That is one indication is in itself a highly advanced RAH-66 Comanche termination of project in the United States in the early 2000s, the threat against which the Comanche was designed to work longer simply did not have.
At the same time partly as a result of the Gulf War, the teachings of Russia and China began since the mid-1990s is investing heavily in the development of the very short-range air defense systems, an example of this Pantsirin M1 and Tor-like systems. These systems also possess a good all-weather ability to also function as a low-flying tutkakatveessa TST hekoja against the largely eliminating perhaps the TST hekojen the most out of the battlefield, that is, the ability to operate below the radar of traditional anti-aircraft radar measurement range at the same time taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the terrain shadowed areas to avoid detection.
Similarly, the general radar technology and advances in information technology have meant that the fighters are better "look-down, shoot-down" -tutkia, enabling very low and slow flying helicopters can be detected maavälkkeen midst. Radar and development of the processing technology is also reflected in the fact that modern IT systems Doppler radars capable of detecting even low-stationary float in the helicopter caused the rotor blades to rotate the Doppler shift due.
Also, thermal imaging technology in the 2000s made great strides forward, making even the latest versions infrapunahakuisten MANPAD systems, it is possible to place the imaging search ends just as ilmataisteluohjuksiin to traditional flares are no longer sufficient to counteract, but needed a more sophisticated defenses fired missiles against, such as the search head Blinded laser beam.
The development of a variety of imaging systems may be mentioned in this context, also a fighter aircraft IRST systems that enable low-flying helicopters can be detected, even if it brings no sufficient radar echo for detecting radar. Just as infrared cameras IT systems allow for the detection of helicopters entirely passively, without that observed the helicopter aware of it before it toward the shot.
This brings me to my point last helicopters vulnerability of the modern battlefield, or of modern IT systems, advanced fire control systems. These now allow for very fast and accurate fire almost immediately after the opening goal, the detection of, for example, if the TST HEKO happens to come Marksman Leon borne by an efficient, drops HEKO almost certainly also down.
However, the worst thing TST hekojen of the modern battlefield is perhaps the fact that like in the past only the fire control systems and sensors olleiden anti-aircraft systems in actual systems begins today also have the TST tank in, IFV-in vehicles, and even the crew transport vehicles in the form of a variety of RWS systems. For example,
Combat Vehicle 90 is able to relegate borne by future TST the helicopter as any short-range IT systems.
Finally, various unmanned airplanes meet the modern-day battlefield largely on what you need to TST hekot originally planned to complete, however, without jeopardizing the life of pilots at all. In addition, these UAV systems operating time and the radius of can now be considerably longer than the TST hekoja, and they are also the enemy is often difficult to detect. The remainder of the TST hekojen meet the performance potential of today largely different from the air and from the triggered precision and smart munition on artillery.
Sum summaarum, therefore, was therefore very good that we do not come out in the 1990s to carry out chopper-Gustav's wildest visions, but we stayed the-ground, and cost-effective solutions
. Deal sounds so Indian...
