State of the Art, 1963
On Sun, 7 Sep 2003, Charles Talleyrand wrote: Imagine four your favorite combat aircraft of 1963 going up against four modern F/A-18s in a BVR engagement. Suppose that the 1963 pilots were smart and willing to employ the best tactics available. Even so we suppose the F-18s win almost every engagement. But how close is it? Can the 1963 aircraft get a radar lock on their enemy (and what about modern jamming)? Can they get to within knife-fight radius? Will they ever see the enemy or even get shot off? Basically, how does the combat go? Launch the nuclear-tipped Genies at maximum range. "Close" is good enough. Cheers and all, |
