That is the big deal for your enemy's BMD system.
Speed, acceleration, altitude, stage separation can be tracked externally. The closer foreigners can get, the better pictures they will have.
RCS? Nobody cares RCS of ballistic missiles and your internal equipment can't tell the external RCS either.
For "sequence of various control commands like for actuators , retro motors", they are helpful to access India's missile tech, but not critical for combat planning.
No offense but get bare minimum subject knowledge before commenting on the same
That is the big deal for your enemy's BMD system.
I said physical tracking versus intercepting telemetry data. The latter is always the primary objective of any snooper.
Speed, acceleration, altitude, stage separation can be tracked externally. The closer foreigners can get, the better pictures they will have.
The information contained in telemetry data is more exhaustive and accurate and hence can help to build up very reliable stimulation models , same cannot be said about externally generated data which will require data from multiple tests from the same missile to build up a working stimulation model and even then it will contain considerable margins of errors due to obvious reasons. Those doing the tests are under no obligation to make things easier for the snooper or are they according to you ?
RCS? Nobody cares RCS of ballistic missiles and your internal equipment can't tell the external RCS either.
As i said previously don't bother to comment on things you have no idea on.
I said RCS data being generated from internal sensors associated with onboard telemetry package of a missile .
What does that mean
RCS ( radar cross section ) of the missile ?
Or
RCS ( reaction control system ) of the missile ?
So much for bare minimum subject knowledge.
Radar cross section of any object can be measured by a external source only in controlled and calibrated conditions only.
Will you in your infinite wisdom associate such conditions with a missile under flight test in the real world ?
As i said don't comment on things you have no knowledge on .
For "sequence of various control commands like for actuators , retro motors", they are helpful to access India's missile tech, but not critical for combat planning
Why ? Because in your infinite wisdom you think so
Sequence of onboard commands linked to corresponding kinematic physical state / changes in kinematic physical state of a object in flight is not helpful to generate accurate predictive models for combat planning against the same ?
Again at the risk of sounding like a broken record i will again repeat
don't bother to comment on things you know nothing about
