  • Part 2 of the battle: • SR-72, B-21, B-1R, NGA... (shows 20th December)
    It's the end of 2023 and I figured we would go out in style with a huge futuristic (slightly stupid) strike against Iran. The US bring B-21 Raider, B-1R, SR-72, FA-XX NGAD, F-22 Raptor, F-35 Lighting and a selection of 4th gen aircraft against pretty much the whole of Iran. Enjoy!

    You're right Cap that if you made these war scenarios ultra realistic is would be very boring. Especially since most countries aren't willing to put up their fighters to oppose an American led attack since they know most will get shot down. So it's basically the American led attack going against enemy SAMs. And most of those would either be taken out by TLAMs, JASSMs, HARMS, ect or be rendered almost useless by jamming and stealth aircraft.

      no vertical stabilisers. you can't change the laws of physics. obviously they will dogfight a lot worse. which is irrelevant because they weren't design for that role and won't do it. other aircraft will also have the AIM-9X. AIM-9X is a missile not an airplane. saying it will be a good dogfight because of it it makes no sense.

      ​@@riskinhosI don't think the U.S. is willing to build a fighter that can't fight within visual range IF it needs to. So I'm not willing to say NGAD won't be a good dogfighter.
      I'm thinking it will probably have some sort of area denial weapons system that can fire in all directions. Maybe lasers, or even sonic weapons. A plane doesn't have to maneuver to dogfight you if it has onboard weapon systems that can swivel 360° and blow you out of the sky at any aspect.

    • @Thewhitetile
      @Thewhitetile 5 місяців тому +1

      yes the Peregrines are high off bore sight. They are not as maneuverable as the aim-9 but close. The NGAD dogfight characteristics change quite a bit with fuel level. Because it carries such a large amount internally. It becomes a very good dogfighter at low fuel.
      NGAD really has to do things poorly to end up in a dogfight. The problem is that it is so powerful it can nearly beat its missiles to the target if you dont turn cold.

      Riskinhos make a good point. Cruise missiles have neither the guidance systems nor kinematics necessary to intercept fighter jets. And how on earth could the ships be delivered to target? They weigh tens of thousands of tons! Any launch or propulsion system that could handle that kind of weight is many, many decades away.

    in reality the Isfahan nuclear enrichment facility is hundreds of meters underground making it invulnerable to almost any conventional munition. Those B2s would have to fly in with specialised bunker busting nuclear gravity bombs each weighing 10 tons. meaning they'd have to get within visual range of the target to hit it. That would have made this a challenge.

      If they decide to use a nuke they'd probably drop a couple B61-11's from B-2/21's, these weigh about 1200 lbs. They probably can be GPS guided so could be launched from a little ways off.

    The optical and infrared satellite can be "easily" blind with a big enough laser, the concept have been tested I think in USSR and probably china as the orbit of a satellite can be predicted and followed easily with a big enough radar, the laser part is tricky as it would need a lot of power but as it's ground base and not unlikely possible. whats left are radar satellite but they probably lack the definition for confirming the objectives is real
