Don't know why people believe that AWACS can guide missiles.
No the current AWACS and Missile seeker technology is not that good enough. Data linking will be a nightmare
But If someone can educate me otherwise. I am ready to get criticised
lol - honestly your understanding of how that would work is flawed... I am with Beast on this one ...
An AWACS will simply provide positional updates to get the missile to the approximate location of the target that is within the specifications of the missiles own radar capabilities - from where the missile will turn "pit-bull" and seek out the target on its own..
