State of the art engineering

One of the USA's defence contractors has just released an animation of a project they are currently developing.

This right here is the kind of thing which makes an engineer horny

It's not a car lol it's an idea for a anti tank system. Only a brain damaged general would refuse this idea
Like I said, it's impractical.

First of all, S-400 wouldn't allow the planes carrying the parts to be in the air. Even if a S-400 shield is deployed using several jets, the S-400 would still take out the unmanned weapons as they're dropping.

Secondly, this mechanism clearly defies physics. How can the self-loading shell be able to penetrate the Armata without a barrel. It's impossible for it to be anywhere near as powerful as the animation shows without something pushing it. This is basic physics. Even if you were to say they're rockets instead of shells, it would be impossible for them to reload in such a manner and travel at the speed the animation depicts.

Erm did you not realise this is a defensive weopen? It defends against tanks. It wouldn't be dropped on Russian soil but it would be dropped in side of Russia's NATO neighbours borders with Russia and it would wait for Russian tanks to invade NATO countries then the anti-tank system would make Russian tanks neutral in the battle which will be taken place in several other spectrums whether it be Russian navy vs NATO's navy and Russian airforce vs NATO's airforce. Like I said before this idea is an anti tank system so it's job is purely toannihilate Russian tanks that attack European countries. The S-400 can not operate in Germany or Estonia etc... So they wouldn't count. You've missed be whole point.

You need to watch how the robotic arm operates and carefully look at each part of it.

Who mentioned Russian territory?

The S-400 can't operate in Estonia? Estonia is on Russia's doorstep. This is the S-400's range. As you can see, it covers the entire Baltic region.

Russian interests lie in the Baltic regions. There's absolutely nothing for Russia in Germany. Russian subs are already lurking in the Baltic Sea so it wouldn't be difficult for Russia to close off that route in the case of a conflict. NATO would have to advance from the west and that would be almost impossible with Russian missiles keeping them at bay. NATO's last hope would be air supremacy.
 
Loooool @ the Aegis system. An Su-24 easily jammed an Aegis radar on a US destroyer.

NATO is lagging behind in electronic warfare. They better catch up... :mjohreally:

Are you sure NATO is being out done by Russia in anything let alone something that involves science
:faysalwtf:

China also hacks the USA but this doesn't mean anything does it?

Nigga, Russia went through with a mock strike of the destroyer. They paralyzed the whole system for several minutes and the American destroyer plus its crew were at the mercy of the Su-24.

As the Russian jet approached the US vessel, the electronic device disabled all radars, control circuits, systems, information transmission, etc. on board the US destroyer. In other words, the all-powerful Aegis system, now hooked up - or about to be - with the defense systems installed on NATO’s most modern ships was shut down, as turning off the TV set with the remote control.

The Russian Su-24 then simulated a missile attack against the USS Donald Cook, which was left literally deaf and blind. As if carrying out a training exercise, the Russian aircraft - unarmed - repeated the same maneuver 12 times before flying away.

After that, the 4th generation destroyer immediately set sail towards a port in Romania.

:sureman:

Round of applause to Putin for that cheeky piece of deterrence he sent out to NATO's generals by pulling that stunt on a US destroyer :qri8gs7:

Only question is why not pull this stunt on an aircraft carrier instead of a destroyer?

Also Russia does seems to have sophisticated electronic war-fare capabilities but if we look at the Russian military as a whole and then compare it to NATO's then it would be like an amateur vs a professional. The Russian military industrial complex can not produce hardware like NATO can.
This video is evidence enough on which side can field the more scientifically advanced battle hardware

:stevej:Bro, @ 1:00 in the video, 60% of those APCs are Soviet in origin. They're mostly BTRs with a few M113s and Humvees also in the clip.

The thing I admire about the Russians is their resourcefulness and the durability of their hardware. Not to mention, the Russians are upgrading their entire armored fleet.


Armata T-14 MBT

Armata T-15 IFV

Kurganets-25 IFV (also has APC variant)

Bumerang APC

GAZ Tigr (mounted with Kornet ATGM)

Add these to their already-vast fleet of tanks and other armored vehicles.

To me it looks like Russia wants to do it on a budget. They know they cant produce every weapon nato have due to financial constraints. So they have Air defence systems, electronic warfare and submarine warfare. I think fighter jets are more of a secondary for russia.

Now compare their latest attack helicopter KA-52 To nato's

I reckon weapons air to air weapons would make a difference. Laakin just just at how nimble ka- 52 is.
 
@HalyeeyQaran
:mjlaugh:

That armata T-14 mbt
Looks like it would be slaughtered by NATO's Abrams
And the Kurganets-25 IFV has zero stealth capabilities while NATO tanks are moving towards the direction of becoming more stealthy.

The Abrams though:banderas:
These are the upgraded version of the Abrams that stood on the throat of saddam Hussiens offensive capabilities in the gulf wars


@Southsidemj1

The apache is light years ahead of the KA-52 in advancements right?
most of Russia's armoury appears as useless junk in the eyes of NATO strategists who have to evaluate what capabilities Russia has.
