PAF Conducts successful test of indigenously developed FAAZ BVRAAM

[Signalian]

@HRK @Bilal I hope we can manufacture the FAAZ-1 in very large numbers and bring its unit cost down significantly. The long-term goal should be to develop it into an affordable interceptor that can eventually be integrated with our UCAVs, giving them the capability to shoot down enemy drones.

Thank your stars the "cult" doesn't have aircrafts, otherwise they would signify their presence that Faaz is aimed at them and their supreme leader in Adiala.

For that 180km range, the basic principle is same.

Fire FAAZ towards the target location without locking it, send updates via datalink for path correction, then the IIR camera sees a high-resolution, two-dimensional thermal image.

The missile’s onboard computer runs image-processing algorithms to isolate the aircraft's silhouette from the background sky, clouds, or ground clutter. Once it locks onto that shape, the data link from the launching jet shuts down. The missile is now completely autonomous and locks onto aircraft heat silhouette.

IIR seeker sees the shape of aircraft so unlike AIm-9, it cannot be fooled by flares.

Very good image that describes the difference between IR and IIR and why the FAAZ is such a "game changer".. ie the silhouette image.

more apt example would be India raising its hands just after two days of pummelling

Next time instead of raising their hands they will drop their pants.

 

[NGAD IS THE BEST]

Ofcourse it will, but the missile would be equally as effective if its original developers would have been given their due credit.

So why the song and dance of claiming foriegn weapons as indigenously developed.
Some wierd rivalry you guys have with India.
Or is something that you guys want to prove to your people?

Should I say your ASTRA series of BVR is based on Russian airframe and Israeli RF seeker and EU electronics, don't spew nonsense and crap for our product if you know nothing shit about it
