Man-pads are deployed on all three blue water navies. So it is not a bad idea to have it in ship along side the main gun. SIMBAD RC I want to show it is not that much in-common idea. The new technology used in new generation missiles makes them more reliable than RAM system against incoming...

It is a tough question! Both satisfy NATO standards. But in performance comparison with each others! I have no idea.

Now, ARMA 8x8 has a serious rival. Maybe childish but I am still in favor of ARMA 6x6 in comparison with PARS 6x6 just because of attractive appearance of ARMA 6x6.

That's not my idea to put man-pads on ships. It is a common deployment on naval forces. Skjold-class patrol boat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Houbei-class missile boat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Rauma-class missile boat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Tarantul-class corvette -...

I just said it is better than nothing for a light ship! Naval AİHSFS would be an advanced system for missile boats. This could be the maximum protection a missile boat could enjoy. Similar systems to SM2 (or advanced SM6) or even ESSM will be very costly systems, I only saw them on...

That's a big issue. Our military has had the same experience with G3. I thought it was solved on latest versions. If so, it is a huge difference, indeed.

Will MPT makes a huge difference in comparison with G3? But I am sure G3 + one of those fantastic Aselsan optical sights will definitely makes a difference. If you had limited sources, which one would be your choice? 1- Replacing G3 with MPT 2- G3 + an advanced optical sight

man-pads are common on all navies. Even Stinger man-pads is deployed on US navy ships, operated by personnel along with other systems. they should have their reason to have those on their arsenal. Huge displacement should it be! :D No, it is not. Range is not the only aspect an...

Thanks. So how about this! a modified MRTP 22 with 2 anti-ship missiles + modified hard kill system. You don't wanna waste a Harpoon for it and it will kill small incoming threats automatically. Please let to arm it with an advanced man-pad. Maybe enemy fighter or chopper decides to attack by...

That's why I call it "heavily modified". Not sure how much modified! ;) We are talking about a new & modern man-pad! and man-pad is somewhere else, not to replace the main gun! And the cost of one rolling missile is 10 times of a JAGM! By the way you missed a point! :D
