Their Lord Cabatlı ;
I have a good question for you ;
Sage officalls say Gökdoğan bvr missile have 65 km aroun range and Fire and forget capability. So that means missile gives a coordinates target first and launch after that he can pass allway his active radar seeker.
That means gökdoğan active radar seeker range is 65 km .
+
Also missile have target editing capabilty after launch for thi capability missile must have rf datalink.
So
Aim-120C-7 like missiles cant pass all way with his active radar seeker, they ares pass half of a way with rf datalink + ins and after that he's turning bulldog/pitbull mode and continue way with his active radar seeker.
İs it possible Gökdoğan bvr missile range is around 100-120 km ? Maybe his active guided range is 65 km but his maximum range can be more. Maybe gökdoğan can be pass 50-60 km with his rf datalink and after they can be use his active warhead.
Maybe officals dont give this info to us for security problems. Many guys says is the past gökdoğan is a c-7 equivalent and also we have not much more c-7 and we needded that kind of missile maybe we wait gökdoğan for that.
BVR range factor is not only about capability of active radar homing guidance but also other kynetic energy figures of aircraft, target and distance between objects. The figure that is introduced with 65km is the NEZ figure of Gökdoğan. The situation can be summarized as following.
- Above Rmax: Pilot should not launch missile, no chance of success.
- Between Rmax and Rmax2: Reasonable chance of successfully intercepting the target.
- Between Rmax2 and Rmin2: No escape zone, almost 100% chance of successfully intercepting the target.
- Between Rmin2 and Rmin: Reasonable chance of successfully intercepting the target.
- Below Rmin: Missile will not launch due to the safety of the pilot being threatened.
NEZ and Rmax ranges are dynamic figures and mostly about kynetic energy of missiles. Weapon engagement zone is based on some parameters: target heading, shooter pitch, target altitude, shooter altitude, target angle off-boresight, target velocity, and shooter velocity. Mission computer calculates the NEZ, WEZ ranges in accordance to parameters received from radar and inform the pilot bia HUD.
NEZ range figures If the shooter and target is appoaching to eachother.
NEZ ranges If the target is being chased by shooter.
