[QUOTE="A Man Called Charolais, post: 82911"] Interesting reply, thank you. The tweet is from [URL='https://www.eurasiantimes.com/2nd-kill-for-suicide-drones-russian-kamikaze-uav-downs/']this report[/URL] that Mad as Fish referred to above. Looks like the aircraft was speeding through the object it destroyed as it had to be close to fix on the target. Aircraft that perform better at lower speeds (ca. 100 mph) appear to be a better option than high speed jets - that's why I suggested AT-802U Sky Wardens as they could be landed and resupplied anywhere (the Americans also have a few spare). Maybe attack helicopters would also work. The objective here is to defend cities from random bombardment by flying bombs. As for the missiles - I don't know much about their capabilities. The design of the nozzles on the newer jets do shield the exhausts, which apparently is effective, so what you suggest sounds plausible. Missiles that are guided onto the target by the attacking aircraft ([URL='https://www.33rdsquare.com/demystifying-the-fox-a-pilots-guide-to-missile-callsigns/']Fox-1[/URL]s, an Aim-7 Sparrow for example) would overcome this shielding. That said, I'm no expert. The Russians do have a sophisticated military aerospace industry so you'd have better sources to refer to than I do. Just a note on bombing cities - this was tried during WW2 in order to break civilian morale. It never worked and V1s were only deployed as a Wunderwaffe once it wasn't possible to conduct bombing raids on Britain anymore, and only served to soothe the nerves of command rather than effect any useful military advantage. The Ukrainians have gotten through another winter, albeit with a bleak spring and summer ahead of them. I'd prefer a reasonable peace was agreed, I've no wish to see the further death or maiming of either Russians or Ukrainians. [/QUOTE]
