Barak-8 is India's answer to Pakistan's Harpoon Anti-Ship Missile

[GURU DUTT]

Indian sukhois have 300 KM radar range for ships. By flying over Jamanagar, they can see the ships of PN at karach or other ports and fire a brahmos at the ships without anyway entering into the conflict of PA plane.

thats what they fear but dont want to aknowledge

@DavidSling , Dude what is this incident??Can you explain us More??

Official reports suggest that those are the main reasons for the incident:
The system wasn't activate tho to lack to intelligence what's in hizballah armory (they didn't have the knowlege about that capability)
Some say they didn't activate the system becuase alot of air force movement near the ship, and the system might consider the IAF planes as "enemies".

In pakistan, A speed of Mach 4 become hypersonic.

Why not? When a rocket assisted glide bomb can become a Sea Skimming ASM with high G terminal manuevers, then why not?

Most of the Pakistani warship doesn't have stealth so detection would be much easy

Idiot and pathological liar....you quoted me first...Did i invite you you quote me...You are not welcome here and especially on my comments and thread so STFU and STOP quoting me and never quote me again
This idiot first quoted me while I never talked with him and it was for @Tipu7

@waz

Dumbass, When you post a comment, people are likely to respond to it..If you post a technical statement then people expect clarifications.. Now when I asked about clarifications you start bashing me personally, which is not required.. PDF is not owned by your father so stop quoting it as your's..Again I tell u, if you can, then justify your claim technically.. If not then pls refrain .. I Don't want to use the same word STFU as used by you because I'm far more civilised than you..

So, you mean to say that, an Aegis System equipped Destroyer is not having Identifying friend or foe system in it.. That's spooky,.. I feel there might be some other reasons..

I just wanted to add one more thing. Cm 400AKG was touted as Carrier Killer. Now when they are armed with B8s, few ppl here say "CM 400AKG Will not be used to attack the missile carrying vessels". And all top tire front line surface vessels will have B8s along with Brammhos. So basically it went from being Carrier Killer to Patrol Boat killer.

Some 3 to 4 years back I heard in the Chinese media that, DF21D was hyped as the ultimate carrier killer.. But this c-400 could be the Chinese export version carrier killer.. LOL

They feared it might, not that it would. (if u ask me, this incident clearly shows lack of understanding in the ship systems and their capabilities)
However, I heard some reports about main radar and ship components that weren't working, that should've grounded the ship

Wikipedia isn't reliable source for Barak 8 speed in my opinion, unless you got official statement about it's speed

Barak 8 has dual pulse rocket motor- So the initial speed right after launch would be Mach 2(similar to barak 1) and accelerating upto Mach 4-4.5- What gives it great advantage is ignition of 2nd pulse- increasing the speed even beyond Mach 4 by 1-2 Mach till final interception- (speed variation might occur due to altitude of interception-)

I remeber the news of Astra being quoted as Mach 1.4 missile with 44 KM range. However Astra does mach 4.5 and range at 6 KM altitude is 65KM+ and touches 3 figures at high altitude.

If oniks is so super duper then why Russia doesnt use it in mass scale to score 100% hit! the only countries who use this missile is vietnam syria and indonesia. lol

Russia uses P-700 Granit with both Nuclear and Conventional HE Warheads-

what on earth was that

and where did it come from @Arsalan please take care mate

someone already did, i guess you did reported the post t

so here it is after over land air space bieng secured by likes of S300PMU,Spyder& S400 the over sea air space will be tackelled by likes of Barak-1 & Barak-8 i wonder what there planners will come owt with now


please take care mods & specially @Arsalan

Have you reported the post? report any such posts please.

i did and copy pasted the same remark here ... i am positive

Nops it was not reported. Anyway i have done this but suggest you use the report button that i pointed our for you as well.

Initial speed will always be low- It takes time to reach high speed- so If the interception is around 15km the speed would be around 2-2.5 Mach- If Its around 60km It would be around 4-4.5Mach-

Just heard news about Barak 8 was offered to colombia by IAI
