I showed your complete ignorance in thermals. You can only call names.Play with toys and don´t know how they work. If you knew, you would bot spread that nosense. And you want to talk for me...
Inertial guidance does not need to be guided you ignorant.If it needs to be guided after launch it is not fire and forget. What logic are you using?
As I said many times in most of real combat situations its impossible to see target at ranged beyond 5 km thats why u need to use C4I data. Spike can do that. Korned-D does not. Of course when conditions are good u can use own thermal as well. Thats another example of great Spike flexibility.Hellfire is launched and guided until seeker comes close enought. Spike in NLOS blind and monitored through TV cam. C4I data? from third party system, as what, UAV, recon which are vulnerable? that´s from your own words. Spike as a system in NLOS has no location means by itself.
Hundreds of Palestinian terrorists were killed by "useless" heat warheads. Unfrtunately during second Lebanon war many Israeli soldiers were killed by useless heat warheads as well.lol. A Heat warhead against a building will do nothing but a hole and against infantry it is completely useless. What is needed is a thermorabic explosion with destroys a great area to be effective.
Adding autotracker to Kornet-D does not change much in its performance. Only thing it changes that reduces human error factor. But everything else remains exactly the same: you shoudl stay in ligh of sign of the target during the whoule course of missile flight.Contradiction again. SACLOS stands for semi-automatic laser guidance which Kornet is not.
Now you also lie. Thats really pathetic. I did not change anything.Depends of whatever the definition of fire and forget you have, which you seem to change often.
Standing in lighn of sight on elevated positions means expose yourself. Plus in most of real situationsSearch from elevated position, spot and destroy, lol, that easy. Unless you are in a mountain scenario but that is veeery rare.
In closed position u are very safe.Except that you remain stationary for a long time while being under enemy fire. No problem.
Thermobaric warheads agaimnst areal targets? They can full only ignorants like you."Efficient engagement of aerial targets with Kornet-EM system is ensured due to combination of high precision guidance system and guided missile with thermobaric warhead equipped with impact and proximity target sensor and a flight range of 10 km"
Spike can also hit helicopters."The maximum flight range of the missile being equal to 10 km ensures Kornet-EM systems advantage in fighting helicopters as it enables the system to fire from a stand-off distance."
Its in spike where u can mask urself after firing. In Kornet you should remain in light of sight with the target. You are slow understanding,At long distances it is fire and retire after target destruction. In within enemy´s range mobility is very important.
Losing LOS is very easy while driving. Especially at very long ranges. Again, you never been in amy military vehicle and dont have a clue whats that.Yeah, how? it is not automatic so no missile interaction.
Driving wont help you against artillery and against Spike. But standing in closed position reduces chance to pe spotted and fired at hundreds times.Equally safe is fire from standoff distance, but when enemy has you in range, for Spike vehicle it starts to be a disaster.
* In closer ranges Spike is full fire and forget. Kornet is suicide.Exactly the same applies to Spike, but with an exception, Kornet-D in closer range is effective, Spike is junk.
* In longer ranges Spike fires from safe closed positions. Korned again exposed and very limited to terraion.
* More over when weather, dust and smoke conditions dont allow fire (for longer ranges it is almost always like this), Kornet does not work, while Spike can fly closely observe from above and hot.
I repeat at long ranges you need to search very very hard to find unclosed position. Spike can fire from any of it. Kornet needs to be stationed in very specific places, which have long LOS range. All I need to protect my forces from long range Kornet is to fire arty at these specific places.With intelligence and location systems it is the same to fire to a hill, as behind it.
I tried to teach you, but you insist on your ignorance.You do not have an idea of how thermal sights work, right? They work with infrared radiation which belongs to a different spectral band. So they are not always subject to distruptions which are in the visible range, as smoke. That´s why modern thermal sights work properly in bad weather conditions. You only prove ignorance.
Thermal sights indeed give a huge advantage over optical in poor weather conditions. But they are still affected. And they are affected a lot. For example if in clear air u see target from 5 km in thermal, in fog u will see from 1 km. But in same fog optic wont see even 50 m. 1 km is huge advantage over 50 m. Do u agree? But still thermal sight is very affected. If you dont believe me ask anyone who seen thermals.
Yes if u are stand alone Libyan rebel but not in C4I army.If visibility is poor you cannot search properly from the start.
Mobility and design are awesome. Thats not LOS system.That proves that it is a poor design with zero firing mobility.
Specific radiaton range? What you are rambling there? hehe.If you think, then not. You make a sensor to be sensitive to a specific radiation range to not make it subject to false alarms. Make it sensitive to Kornet´s beam, and it is useless.
How can you stop laser from going out?Kornet has a specific 4 colour channel which does not allow it to go out of the firer beam.
Finally you realised that laser alarms the tank and affected by dust fog etc. But for that mode you need to lase the target to find its range. That alarms the target.There are two variants. From short range used laser beam practically does not irradiate as explained. For longer range, see this vid from 7:53 seconds. A more powerfull beam is used to engage at higher range, so line of sight on the target is maintained, and the beam directed upwards to not alarm the tank. Missiles flies in loafted trajectory and hits avoiding any countermeasures.
