There's a replacement for the pod, and a bunch of aircraft have internal jammers. The F-18G currently does the EA-6B's job. I don't know what replaced the EF-111, but right now anything with an AESA radar can probably rain on a SAM's parade.

Unless you can show me where the USAF suddenly stopped flying, operating or producing or planning stealth fighters, that statement is pretty much a fairy tale.

Rather, when all you get in a 2-month bombing campaign is a couple of planes shot down, makes it sound more like SAMs are heavily over-estimated. Although, the Serbs were clever people - by doing what they did they kept their SAMs operational in order to cover their army should there have been a ground invasion.

This isn't the first time or the last time an aircraft is shot down due to lack of EW support. There is a good deal of examples since '91 at least, and probably earlier than that as well.

And once more, the SAMs were proven to be nothing but speed-bumps.

Yeah, except they didn't. All the US pilots had to do was call 'Magnum' in the clear and the SAM operators would tuck their tails between their legs and hide.

I truly love the documentation. If you bought a book with all this it would be tremendously expensive.

Also, guys-I can see that the discussion regarding the combat effectiveness of defensive missiles is one that's causing some emotion on both sides. Let's keep the debate civil and refrain from calling the opinions of others "fairy tales" or claiming that the other side's pilots are cowards. Thanks.

Adding the possibility to launch the V-880N 5V28N (Gammon) Nuclear tipped SAM Missile, for the S-200VE Vega-E (SA-5B Gammon) system.
The 25kt TA-18 warhead has 60% more destructive power than the V-760 15D (Guideline Mod.4) Nuclear tipped SAM Missile, available for the S-75M3 Volhov (SA-2E Guideline) system...



... and a bit larger than the conventional warhead at the left.



Nice reading here:

I believe "Thor" is just a bodyguard of his bigger "colegues" (s-300;400), and his main role is to destroy some airborn weapons, not the aircrafts... In Russia they used "OSA" (SA-8) missiles as targets. yep


Nope. S-300/400 belongs to Air Defence forces (currently a part of Air Force), while Tor belongs to the Army (ground troops), at least that's how it was in Soviet Union and currently is in Russia. The Tor's primary mission is to protect troops in the field. Each Soviet combat division had 12 Tors (or 16 Osa's) in its Air Defence Regiment. Granted, Army had its own version of S-300, the S-300V, but it was issued at Army, not divisional, level and its mission was to protect troops against ballistic missiles, such as Pershing-1. Air Defence forces saw (and see) Pantsyr as a companion to S-300, although it is likely to be used to defend targets other than S-300 batteries. But due to poor performance of Pantsyr, Almaz-Antey now develops a Morfei SAM, that I mentioned a few pages above, for this and other purposes.

But you must admit that U. S. NEVER encountered any 3rd generation SAMs in combat. S-300, Tor-M1, Buk-M2. Neither they encountered an integrated air defence network. I wonder if SAMs are so inefficient, why both U. S. and Israelis made such an enormous effort to prevent a shipment of Russian S-300 to Iran?

Thanks for the correction Lonewolf357, you are right!
My point is that this system engaged some small-sized targets like missiles...

Could you be more specific?
Thanks!
