The second launch of the American anti-missile SM-3 Block IIA failed

In the United States, tests of the SM-3 Block IIA interceptor missile model failed, the newspaper writes. Defense News. Test run was carried out near the Hawaiian Islands. The destroyer "John Paul Jones", equipped with combat information and control system "Aegis", was able to detect the training target, take on the escort and fire. However, the missile did not hit the target. A medium-range ballistic missile was launched from a US missile range on the island of Kauai, Hawaii.

These are just the second tests of the new version of SM-3. The first were held in February and ended with a successful interception. According to the creators, the company Raytheon, armed with Block IIA are going to put in 2018 year. It can equip both the ship and the ground launcher. SM-3 will have to destroy ballistic missiles with a range from 3 to 5 thousands of kilometers.

Coincidence? .... I do not think so.

[Muvka]

I wonder, and if the contract forbids creating rockets and even an engine for medium and short-range missiles, how did they make the target?

Sea based possible.

[Muvka]

And what is the name of an American sea-based medium-range ballistic missile?

[Dead duck]

In targets in a different way, usually special missiles are made and they differ significantly from military ones.

[Maz]

I know what to do, one word Israel will save America.

The main thing is to quickly escape from the shores of the DPRK from Juche

[jonhr]

do you want such a radiant president?

[bk316]

Well, at least it took off ..... It was necessary to put a beacon on the target.

[Aaron Zawi]

Kindergarten. Yes, to bring this rocket will require not one or two, several dozen launches. How else?

[Muvka]

So these are tests, not development.

[CentDo]

Remember the Mace. What is the ratio of successful and unsuccessful starts?

[Kent0001]

So yes, they want the current in the 18 year to put it into service.

How is this not a tragedy? And if Iran attacks you and America and everything is gone ???))))

[Orionvit]

This is fake men. I saw in the movie that the destroyer "John Paul Jones", the aliens were cut to pieces, exactly near the Hawaiian Islands. Hollywood will not lie.

Exactly. If we have a deadline in Armata, PAK FA or some other kind of sword-treasure, then - "everything is gone!", "When you finish it - it will become obsolete!" And here - "Not a tragedy!"

[Alexander War]

The launch of an unmatched SM-3 Block IIA missile in the world ended in failure.

[Mavrikiy]

This is just the second test of the new version of SM-3
Mdya-mdya. As I understand you. Well, another 500 - .... Lyamov "and it will go, and everyone will pick up, and everyone will buy!"

Yes, no, of course, and 20 is okay and 21 is not critical, it’s only if we have problems that are terrible, darkness and quiet horror, but for the elect it’s normal, right? or how ?

[LÄRZ]

Yes, you certainly need to throw money in order to fly normally!

Moreover, the developers promised that almost all components of the SM-3 IIA will be original products that are different from other modifications of the SM-3 family. Meanwhile, according to the official schedule of the ABM Agency, this missile should be deployed as part of the Aegis Ashore complex in Poland as early as 2018. Let’s see. This is the emblem of the second SM-3 Block IIA missile test, called the "Star Kirin" 32 mil greens in the toilet

It's nice when something falls or explodes overseas. But it’s a trifle.

Dopilyat, Aron, I'm sure. They will finish off with a sledgehammer, the authorities will be insulted for the hackish leadership, while the Washington regional committee does not sleep.

[Ajent cho]

SM-3

The rocket forms similar to the one from the Buk air defense system.

[voyaka uh]

The main thing is that the reports are honest. Success - write "success." Miss - write "miss."
Do not fake the test, the key to success.

Say thanks to Mikhail Sergeyevich and his negotiators, in particular Shevarnadze. It was thanks to them that Article VII arose in the contract.

These are just the second tests of the new version of SM-3.

And the men do not even know ...

In fact, the number of trials was 3. Of these, 2 were successful. That is 33 to 66. Of course this is not buzzing.
You can laugh at the enemy when you have everything on the ointment and there is a system comparable or superior to those that the adversary has. And when we have only plans, and they already have iron - then there is no laughing matter ...

[g1washntwn]

Americans do not have failures, they are successful and partially successful :)

[Kostadinov]

So it is necessary. There must be a bit of "failure" so that more money is taken and confirms that there is also "good luck". When we have "failures" we are openly reporting about it and when we say that we have time, we can believe.
The whole eta missile defense is a complete success as a business and profit and bluff like an missile defense.

He does not believe in our missile defense system and is blaming himself on our "successes" and "failures."

Yes? Well, comment, for example, a problem with 40H6, which can beat anyone and everyone for 600 km? What is heard about her? But nothing. Periodically, uncles with large shoulder straps say that we have it and that's it. Have you heard many statements (of ours) about failures?
For example, how many failed launches of Zircon? Only not from the data network, but official
Or how many successful and unsuccessful launches of the Rubezh missile were. And in general, what is it? "Frontier", "Vanguard" or "Yars-M"
Failures hide everything. And we, and the Americans and everyone else who develops and tests rockets. That's how, for example, in recent years, Eun had unsuccessful launches?
Therefore, you should not think that we are all honest, we are talking about every failed launch and everything else
