One of the problems with launching them so close to the target is THAAD doesn't have time to react. Global warning systems would warn of the launch as soon as it happened, and THAADs would be fired timed to intercept at maximum altitude. There would be time for at least one second launch from THAAD, plus the Patriots cleaning up. By firing so close you don't give time for the entire system to react.

I believe that CH’s Patriot is massively under-modeled-both types of missiles included travel way too slow (as I’ve said before, both should go faster than MACH 5, as per Raytheon), the PAC-3 MSE doesn’t have its cool control section modeled as functional at all, and iirc, the max number of simultaneous engagements in the case of either of the two AESA radars, the AN/MPQ-65A and the LTAMDS, using the active radar homing PAC-3 MSE seems to be too low…

I think one of the bigger issues is that because the missiles don't come down as steeply- it makes intercepting them actually a lot harder because the lateral movement is so much higher. Altitude is easier to intercept I would imagine because it simply slides the point forward but, with how high the lateral velocity is with it, the point is slid so much farther ahead that the missiles don't actually get to their designed altitudes for intercept and thus seem to have a higher fail-rate. That's just my speculation of course, correct me if I'm wrong of course.

I think they are trying to see how CHs stuff that stretches the limits of DCS. The real THAAD does not work well yet and this is NOT a realistic depiction of how THAAD works any way. THAAD is designed to fill the gap in the SM-3 coverage at extreme altitude way above what was depicted here. Integrated defense is what would really be employed. THAAD is a one trick pony that is just apart of a more comprehensive coverage. You want to simulate this correctly you need a real simulator not a game. DCS has the same bad physics as Flat Earthers ... not a joke the Earth is flat in DCS and worse yet there is a bounding box. This is a dead end.

It fudges the range radars can see you but the environment is flat Earth. The bounding box is well below the altitude these missiles operate. Its not just that there just no real physics emulation at all. Its more like a 1980s video game like Marathon. DCS is still mostly a single processor application and you just can't do all that physics for so many things on one processor. Its extremely primitive. Its just a game.

so not sure if DTS does this but in real life THAAD and patriot working together is dangerous because they can both be brought into the same network, patriot can use THAAD radar and vice versa working in tandem to increase the kill probability, PAC 3s can start firing sooner since were only dealing with ballistic missiles that dont maneuver. THAAD radar can see literally thousands of miles and can act as early warning and give patriot an easier time to queue targets for any that thaad missed. source: im in air defense

alright, so i'm not a truly knowledgeable source, but i've read a fair bit and watched actual experts talking about it, and form what i understand, the patriot PAC-2 is a fragmentation warhead, that gets close to a target and the blasts a shotgun at it, while PAC-3 is a kinetic kill that slams the entire interceptor into a target. the thing is that patriot is designed for both anti-missile defense AND anti-aircraft defense, and the fragmentation interceptor is really good against an aircraft, which has sensitive things like a pilot, complex electronics, fuel, and weapons which can be damaged but a fragment, bringing it down or at least preventing it from completing it's mission. but against something like a ballistics missile, fragments are less likely to do enough damage to completely disable the warhead (which are usually at least moderately armored) and missiles being targeted by patriot are usually in a terminal trajectory with minimal maneuvering once a patriot is intercepting them, so damaging them enough to disable their controls will do very little to cause them to miss. instead, if you use the PAC-3, a hit will not only be far more likely to catastrophically disable any warhead, but it's also more likely to physically move the missile off course as well. so in generally the PAC-3 is better than PAC-2 against missiles becuase they have a better kill chance when they hit, while technically having a lower hit chance, but not by much. the patriots we've seen in Ukraine have proven that against modern weapons, they have around a 85-95% accuracy, which means that the patriot is a fantastic system, even in a less than optimal setting

@delphy2478

@@hughmungus2760 there are two types of directed energy weapons used for defense. you re correct that lasers deal damage thermally which will have to overcome the re-entry defense of the missiles. however, re-entry ballistic missiles will most likely either be using ablative plating that will be mostly removed during re-entry, thus making it vulnerable to heat, or will still have it's re-entry shield attached, which will after re-entry already be extremely hot after absorbing the heat of re-entry. in both cases, they will not have very much more shielding than needed, becuase extra weight means lower ranges/speeds and/or higher costs, so in both cases their heat shielding would be near their limits when the lasers come into play. i will admit however, that as laser defenses become more commonplace additional anti-laser defenses will likely be implemented, but it's unlikely for them to be implemented BEFORE the mass deployment of laser defenses. the second directed energy weapon in development and starting to be deployed is microwave emitters. the upside is that these attempt to directly scramble and overload the electronics and therefore mostly bypass thermal protection. the bad news is they are shorter range than lasers and more of an area deterrent rather than a single target point defense, but as you would expect a missile swarm to all generally be striking form a roughly similar attack path, a single microwave defense emitter that disables 20% of the incoming missiles paired with several lasers to target the no-disabled missiles would be useful, i will admit though, that form my understanding of their intended use, microwave air defense would not be particularly effective against ballistic missiles, as there lack of range and the relative simplicity of the missile electronics would be difficult to have meaningful effect fast enough, but microwave emitters are much more designed to be effective at disabling drone swarms or aircraft. if you're under attack form missiles there's no reason not to use the microwave emitter, it's just not the best defensive weapon for the job.

Lasers are cool tech, but they wouldn't be effective here. The incoming missile is too fast, too massive, and therefore has too much momentum. Lasers also suffer from various atmospheric effects impacting their accuracy and intensity such as water droplets, salt particles, dust, dirt, pollutants, etc.

A quick internet search seems to show that only submarines are based in Guam, so it's entirely possible that a attack is timed when no ships are close enough to help defend Guam. However... they are working on land based Aegis with SM-6, so that can definitely help and iirc, there's also talks about building a new missile defense system in Guam to help counter cruise missiles. Since the land based Aegis will be part of MDA (missile defense agency), technically the answer is no.

@@Blank27 IIRC they're planning to build an incredibly complex missile defence around guam. It would use a short range and cheap missile system to protect against cruise missiles and suicide drones, similar to iron dome, allowing for patriot, AEGIS ashore and THAAD missiles to be reserved for higher priority targets. What I've just described doesn't do it justice TBH, theres several new radar types and installations, satellite integration for long-range missile tracking and a new networking system to link literally all of these systems together to form a cohesive defence. There was also talk of permenantly moreing retired ticonderoga cruisers for missile defence at Guam, but my guess would be the fact that this was ever even considered spurred the system i described's development.

DF-26 travels @3000m/s. C-RAMs weren't made to destroy these type of targets. it's like trying to sink a carrier with a bb gun. doesn't even have any logic. to put in perspective the cost of a single THAAD missile is $23.65 million. the cost of a C-RAM system is around $10 million. so to answer your question the C-RAM wouldn't even move let alone even attempt to track anything and not even mentioning firing accurately.

True. And this mod would make the PAC-2 even less useful because for some reason CurrentHill set its max speed at around MACH 4 while there’s a publicly available Raytheon infographic from 2002 saying that both PAC-2 GEM-T and PAC-3 travel at “MACH 5+” 🤷‍♂️

plus, the fragmentation damage is simply less effective at stopping a terminal stage missile than a kinetic kill, although i don't know how DCS models the 'health' of missiles vs their impact or ability to accurately target, or just has a pass/fail of 'was it intercepted and therefore removed or not', so the in game modeling might be an approximation of reality

I'd argue that frags are actually very useful. It's not your common grenade with small pieces of shrapnel and metal. The PAC-2 Warhead is slinging pure steel slugs and massive chunks of metal into the incoming missile at a 1000 meters per second (for that brief travel time). That fragmentation can punch holes through reinforced concrete as if it isn't even there. It will absolutely mangle an incoming missile.

Personally I think a soft robotic submersible fleet is the cheapest form of Naval defence for an island you could just net the entire place with passive seeker mines piezo passive sonar and piezo communication with swarm tactics the amount of solid hardware would be tiny making them all but invisible and they have no crush depth so you could severe lines or hunt subs trying to go deep and dark. Give the A.I's propwash models they'll hunt whatever you want. And at about $5000 dollars a tonne of delivered ordinance they'd be cheap like a budgy and fast to produce about an hour by hand so seconds per unit with automation. You could even just have a plastic welder on a warship and some rolls of plastic unroll the module and harness weld it into the body by laying out two layers of plastic and running a glorified soldering iron over the pattern slide it overboard then inject your ampho it'd be ten minutes from woe to go could scale the pattern to what your hunting and only takes up the room of the actual explosive payload without more explosives or fuel to deliver it so less volatiles on your warship and your mixing the volatiles off the ship so the only time volatiles are present on deck is in the injector lines so every thing is in the magazine not on deck like most mine layers or make self deployable boxes that just sit inert until they are pipped into action. .
