Link. I have its brochure there is nothing about 12.7 mm.Rosoboronexport
It says it protects against tank HEAT rounds. Something that Drozd cant do.It does not say anything, there is no proof, and it was not shown. You still do not understand how to make comparisons, and what actually are technical specifications.
Spare me of your nonsense. You dont have trials information. We both relly only on advertistments.First to compare, information has to be of value and have a meaning, what you do is compare stupid advertisement which says nothing to official information from goverment trials, not favorable to you.
From Drozd official tests it was shown it intercept targets from 70-700m/s, this is a valid technical specification. From Trophy there is nothing, so it's not known what kind of targets it is able to intercept.
These are rubbish numbers. Pentagon made 30 tests of Trophy and it showed more than 0.95 effectiveness.Second, assuming Trophy can intercept Heat rounds, this would not imply that it will give a reliable protection. From Drozd tests there were given figures of 0.7 success rate against RPGs, and 1 against missiles. There is no information at all about Trophy, so it cannot be assured that it will actually protect against Heat rounds.
Spare me of your MS Paint works.And is dangerous for everyone nearby as this and this other image show: http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/3828/t12ap.jpg
All of it is realized in Trophy, I showed you the source. And its not realized in Drozd. No Russian tank have such system.And this again is non relevant advertisement junk. Today's systems automatically detect the location of the launcher, calculate necessary gun rotation and elevation to inmediately eliminate the threat. Nothing of this is realised in "modern" Trophy. It is all up to the crew to interpret the location and to initiate all the procedure, which is a slow manual process with no guarantee of effective counteraction. It is up to you to take advertisement seriously...
You lost 5000 we lost 29. Thats fact. You lost over hundred tanks to RPGs, we lost zero.This is very ignorant and empty statement.
Fact: IS-3 was based on rich WW2 experience.IS-4 was a continuation of earlier series, rroduction lasted only a few years ceasing before 1950, while T-54 was seen as perspective concept, IS series concept got archaic after WW2 and was not continued, neither in the rest of the world.
Fact: IS-3 had thick sides.
Conclusion: side protection is very important in classic warfare.
Fact: Tiger was based on rich WW2 experience.
Fact: Tiger had thick sides.
Conclusion: side protection is very important in classic warfare.
And facts that even you cant deny:
Side protection is very important in urban warfare.
Side protection is very important in LIC and COIN warfare.
The only way to provide side protection against modern threats is APS. And Trophy is first APS which is doing that.
There are plenty of modern RPGs gear there.From there they would hardly get anything modern, less in significant quantities.
