Wraith27 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Found this interesting picture - in 80's they try with Hawk - here is Alamo Anybody have more information? Is it works? Only tests? or... Photoshop... Quote
+Gepard Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Its easy to hang a missile on a rail. But this must not mean, that the Tomcat can fire this missile. Quote
+Typhoid Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I'm sure they can fire it. They are not idiots over there. deranged, homicidal maniacs perhaps, but not idiots. 1 Quote
+Wrench Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 yes, they maybe insane, but they ain't stupid. Quote
+ghostrider883 Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 The Indian AF had tried integrating the R-27 to the Mirage 2000H and weren't successful. May be its just for display and make people scratch theri heads how Iran was able to do it. How are they going to integrate the R-27's guidance to the Tomcat's radar? Quote
exhausted Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Another sign of desperation. What's wrong Khameni? Out of Sparrow batteries now? Quote
Wraith27 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Posted March 11, 2012 Integrate Hawk with Tomcat's radar was difficult and the results wasn't satisfactory. Integrate Russian missile must be more difficult or even impossible. It looks that they have problem with missiles for Tomcat's. First with Phoenix, now with Sparrows ( but who knows when this picture was taken ) - only Sidewinders are available. Quote
