MACH that is the max of a F/A-18
MACH 1.8
26
AIM-9
Sidewinder AIM = Air Intercept Missile - one of hte oldest cheapest short range air to air missile
27
size of a Sidewinder
AIM-9 (Air Intercept Missile) just shy of 10 ft 5in diameter 11 inch wingspan 188lbs
28
operational range of a Sidewinder
0.6-22 miles
29
maximum speed of a Sidewinder
MACH 2.5
30
warhead weight of a Sidewinder
20.8lbs
31
detonation mechanism of a Sidewinder
IR proximity fuse - a fuze that detonates an explosive device automatically when it approaches within a certain distance of its target. Proximity fuzes are designed for elusive military targets such as airplanes and missiles, as well as ships at sea and ground forces. This sophisticated trigger mechanism may increase lethality by 5 to 10 times compared to the common contact fuze or timed fuze
32
AIR (missile)
air intercept missile (like Sidewinder = short) (like Sparrow = medium)
33
example of a short-range air to air missile
Sidwinder
34
example of a medium range air to air missile
Sparrow
35
difference between the Sparrow and Sidewinder
both = AIM Air Intercept Missile Sparrow = medium range air to air missile (14-38 nmi) Sidewinder = short range air to air missile (0.6-22 miles)
36
aka Sea Sparrow
RIM-7 Sea Sparrow
37
size of AIM Sparrow
510 lbs 12ft long 8 in diameter wingspan 2ft 8 in warhead 88 lbs
38
what is AIM-7 Sparrow
medium-range semi-active radar honing air to air missile
39
infrared homing
passive weapons guidance system that uses infrared lgiht emission from a target to track and follow it seemlessly - passive devises which, unlike radar, provide no indicatino they are tracking a target - so used for sneak attacks - aka "heat-seakers" but technically just infared seeking since infared is radiated strongly by hot bodies
40
what are heat seeking missiles really...
infrared light emission -
41
one way to defeat a missile that works via infrared light emissoin (heat seeking)
drop flares behind the target to create false heat sources BUT only works if teh pilot is aware of the missle and has time to deploy countermeasures
42
brevity code used by NATO pilots to signal release of air to air munitions
Fox 1 = release of a semi-active radar homing missile like the Sparrow Fox 2: launch of an infard homing missile like the Sidewinder Fox 3 = launch o an active radar homing missile like a AIM Phionex
