A cold missile? A missile with a flame plume is 'cold' against space? And an IR sensor will be unable to tell the contrast...!!! This is unbelievably entertaining.
No...You do not understand what is a 'bi-static' radar configuration, which is a very important applied concept.
Wrong. The interceptor missile, which is the Patriot missile itself, cannot detect the Scud during its boost phase. See if you can figure out why.
I will not bother with the rest of your gibberish.
I have. I 'earned' that respect by having far more military experience than you.Respect? earn it, stop being a traitor then!!
Respect? earn it, stop being a traitor then!!
And what experience do YOU have in aviation other than making paper airplanes to entertain yourself?
@gambit : bi static radar config in short and in a way relevant to this discussion?
Bistatic radar is the name given to a radar system which comprises a transmitter and receiver which are separated by a distance that is comparable to the expected target distance. Conversely, a radar in which the transmitter and receiver are collocated is called a monostatic radar.
Not applicable?@gambit : bi static radar config in short and in a way relevant to this discussion?Not really, honestly, you can check it here. Bistatic forward scatter radars are mainly used to detect stealth aircraft using Babinet's principle
Am not a commie so the laugh is on YOU, commie.
Am already a US citizen. Would you like to join US? You will have to leave 'Chinese physics' behind, though.
That make him a coward and a hypocrite.Actually he said in another thread that he lives in Brooklyn. he hides behind the Chinese and North Korean flag becuase he admires them. Imagine that someone that admires Kim Jong-il. Yet enjoys the liberties of the U.S.
"I live in Brooklyn New York. I just chose the North Korean and Chinese flag because those are my two favorite countries. "
Not applicable?
Very well...
A bi-static radar configuration is when there are physically, not merely logically, distinct transmit and receive platforms, as illustrated above. The majority of radar systems out there are mono-static, meaning that one antenna perform both transmit and receive functions. In doing so, the system become a 'pulsed' or 'pulsating' system. It is possible to have a constant wave single antenna but that is for another discussion.
For the majority of ground-air missile, the entire system is bi-static, meaning substitute the receiver for the interceptor missile. The interceptor missile receive any target echoes produced by the main launch platform radar and process its own target resolutions, which may be correlated against target resolutions from the main radar itself. In other words, there are two sets of target resolutions, one worked on by the interceptor missile and one worked on by the main radar.
Here is another example...
In the illustration above, the 'semi-active' is a bi-static configuration. So pay no mind to what the other gentleman said about non-applicability.
Just for you...I am a 'sanitation engineer'. I clean up a lot of BS.I am a mechanical engineer?
That still does not explain your aviation experience. In my book, an A/P and/or FCC licensed mechanic is more relevant than you when it comes to aviation.You know who designs these missiles and planes?
Engineers
Real engineers, the ones who actually went to university not "army engineers" who are not allowed to design anything
That make him a coward and a hypocrite.
Utter BS. I want to see a source for this assertion.Most of the SAM are bi-static, however for anti ballistic missiles the angle is too narrow for it to be effective as a bi-static. It is just Pseudo-monostatic configuration in those cases.
Utter BS. I want to see a source for this assertion.
Yeah...Just as I thought...You cannot even understand the wiki source that YOU brought on. Get some crayons and entertain yourself.Just use your imagination. Do I have to draw a picture for you here?
