while this sounds good and possible, it hasnt been tested yet in an active, real world scenario. People on this forum confuse lack of use of S300s and S400s with them being incompetent, or shut down. I feel confident its the opposite- their capability is so strategic, national leaders have to decide if they actually want to use that weapon because its effect is very strong(aircraft being shot down, aircrew probably dead, national image damaged or humiliated). THe way you talk about S400s, you make it sound like its a toy weapon made to developing country standards. Even in raw capability, if that thing locks onto your F16 and fires, you and i know what is going to happen. Understand that the lack of action you are seeing is the lack of a political decision(to fire the system at actual enemy aircraft) that is just reflected through the lack of the use of the S300/S400 systems.
