I Love the antiquated concept of torpedo nets from a century ago. I seriously think there could be modern applications for it, if someone would bother with it. I don't see why the concept couldn't be expanded to an airborne platform as well, floated by drones, with high-tensile nets that are either high-explosive or discharge electrical current- hitting an incoming missile with our own missile leaves _zero_ margin for error, while deploying high tech nets gives at least _some_ margin. Plus, when our defensive missile misses, it's speeding out of the area, while loitering nets stretched between drones, would still be there, ready for follow-up salvos. I also don't see why we can't design loitering drones with CIWS, so that CIWS doesn't have to be a last-ditch defense.

Yea no argument here on the absolutely criminal inefficiency getting this thing up to snuff. But the jury is still out on whether it’s ineffective or not. We wouldn’t know that until we were involved in a major conflict. It seems Israel’s F-35s are doing just fine currently. Either way, it is certainly a world class platform. Just how good it really is, if it’s “worth” the cost…time will tell. I’d rather have it than not have it, but that’s a low bar to clear given the circumstances.

Maybe compared to the F-35 considering the SPECTRA system had its first flight before the F-35 reached IOC, but decoys could’ve been in its design before then, but the U.S. has had towed decoys for decades, the F-18E/F and B-1 have had them since 1995.

It can adapt its responses to various threats in real-time, offering greater flexibility compared to static towed decoys. 2. **Stealth:** Unlike towed decoys, which can be visually detected and targeted by adversaries, SPECTRA operates passively, making it harder for enemies to detect and neutralize. 3. **Integrated Defense:** SPECTRA is seamlessly integrated into the Rafale's avionics and can work in conjunction with other onboard systems, enhancing overall defensive capabilities. 4. **Dynamic Response:** SPECTRA can rapidly analyze threats and deploy countermeasures, providing a dynamic defense that can react to evolving battlefield conditions. 5. **Reduced Vulnerability:** Towed decoys are physical objects that can be damaged or destroyed, leaving the aircraft vulnerable.

@Scudboy17Ай бұрын
It's the kind of countermeasure that's hard to beat even if you know it exists. Most air to air missiles have independent targeting, meaning once they are launched they rely on (mostly) their own sensors to find the target. You would have to invest some serious money and time into making the missiles much smarter and totally change the way they can find and attack targets. It's like knowing your enemy has near perfect camouflage. Just knowing they have it still doesn't tell you where they are hiding. Some air to air missiles are wire or radio guided by the pilot or a weapons officer in the plane. Most of these are really old- 60's and 70's era tech- and have limited range and effectiveness. Either the missile is too short-range to hit targets from a safe range, the missile is too fast to guide once it reaches terminal range, or it's too slow and easy to avoid. Most militaries stopped using them decades ago, tho I think Russia still uses some.
