The Turkish S-400 air defense missile systems “spied” on the US Air Force “invisible” fighters

Ankara tested its Triumph S-400 systems, testing their ability to detect 5th generation American warplanes. Turkish anti-aircraft gunners tried to “catch” the US Air Force F-35 and F-22 during their flights between Europe and the Middle East.

According to the Bulgarian portal Bulgarian Military, these vehicles moved over the Black Sea and over the territory of Turkey. At the same time, the flight path passed 170-200 km from the Mürted air base, on which two S-400 air defense batteries are located. The military could prepare for the appearance of aircraft, since advance notice of the route of military vehicles is sent. They took advantage of this by arranging "surveillance" of the American "invisible" fighters.

Turks could watch how they look on the radar

- notes Bulgarian Military.

However, as Defense24 points out, this monitoring is difficult to call objective.

Because they [planes] are equipped with overlay systems [Luneberg lenses - signal amplifiers], reinforcing their radar track, as well as the thermal signature

- writes the Polish edition.

A similar incident occurred with the F-22 Raptor, which was detected on the way to the Republic of Korea by Chinese radars.

However, this plane flew at ... an air show. The situation was certainly the same, of course, when flying in the vicinity of Turkey from the moment this state received the S-400 system. In the case of combat readiness of the S-400 within 170-200 km, they would not have been seen at all

- indicates Defense24.

another article like "the reasoning of grandmothers on a bench about the international situation" ... but the realities are such that the S400 sees 5th generation aircraft made using STEALTH technology ... and sees well at long range ...

[2 Level Advisor]

and who checked who sees / doesn’t see whom? at what course, height, distance?

"the reasoning of the grandmothers on the bench about the international situation"

I agree with that)

[Cananecat]

Theoretically, knowing the flight route along the border of the Russian Federation and pushing the equipment to the desired point, as close to the border as possible, it is possible to work out the detection.
I’m thinking of pouring water about the possibility of the complex, no one will detect the aircraft with stealth technology, otherwise the first delivery of this complex abroad will be the last.

[Shurik70]

Defense24 is POLISH MASS MEDIA.
And that's it.
The Turks, of course, having received the S-400, will definitely check the effectiveness of its radars. It is obvious. But it is unlikely that the Turks will notify anyone about this. And if they put it - then their own media.
So in stock only attempt Poles once again lick ass USA

[pipetro]

Yes, they see these stealth, and not only Russian complexes.
So you just turn on the logic: you have an airplane that no one can detect. So put him on the conditional "Red Square", as they did in the last century - just for a couple of hours. How many such demonstration operations have been performed over the past 20 years? 0.

[Roman1970_1]

Your statement from the same opera about the grandmother.
None of those who write comments here know this.

[KCA]

There was a program on Zvezda about some research institute that deals with radar, its representative said that they have the signatures of the reflection of almost all aircraft in the world, to the question of the host - and the stealth of US aircraft, he answered - yes, and how they received them, of course, did not say. They showed imitators - very tiny, in comparison with the plane, corner reflectors, it is clear that they showed not stealth, but an analogue of some AN-2

[Grazdanin]

Oh yes, the Star TV channel is a trustworthy source.

[KCA]

Do you have a more reliable source of information? FoxNews? BBS? Bellingcat? Maybe National Intrest? Or other? Tell me, I read it / see

[Lighten]

I have. "KB communication". Rostov-on-Don. One of the developers of electronic warfare. All signatures are F22. F35s were received 8-10 years ago. In the Middle East, there was a mobile unit that wrote all the exchange between signature avaks of all aircraft. And these types of invisible people got into the archive. A separate story is how the equipment for signal pickup and recording of archives got to ours. And in our time there is a place for the exploit of a scout. INFA is no longer super-secret. The original source shared over a cup of tea.

[Lamp post]

Chatterbox is a godsend for spy.

[Lighten]

The statute of limitations has passed. And it’s a pity that. The country does not know many heroes. Those who are now working abroad, extracting information, equipment drawings. There's a lot cooler than the Hollywood craft.

[Lamp post]

All true, but this is the necessary "price" for involvement. Do not let your friend down.

[alexmach]

The stars are still storytellers. There is pure propaganda there, and technically they are very, very inaccurate.

they have signatures of reflection of almost all aircraft in the world, to the host’s question - and stealth of US planes, he answered - yes, and, of course, they didn’t tell them how they got them

And this is quite normal. They are also used all over the world, including in the Middle East, where Russia has its own forces and means. I think that to remove the signature from the new aircraft was one of the first tasks after the appearance of these aircraft.

[KCA]

On this site, all Americanophiles claim that stealth always fly with the lens turned on, even when 5 planes flew out on combat patrol after an attack on a military base in Iraq, how did the signatures be removed? Or they don’t always fly with a lens, although you can’t prove them

[alexmach]

I don’t know for the Americanophiles, but the F-35 is already more than 500 units in service, not only among the Americans but also among the allies, and they have long been used in combat missions. In such circumstances, collecting information on them should not be a problem. About lenses, especially on combat missions in general, some kind of stupidity. Although it is quite logical that the operators will try to prevent even such a study of new aircraft. But with the forces deployed in Syria and the Mediterranean Sea, I think this should not be a problem.

With the F-22, things can be more complicated, but they were also used in Afghanistan and in Europe, if my memory serves me right, they were thrown over.

Well, and the latter can be, after all, not only "measured", this is not the only available option, you can use the predictive method and then only confirm its results with real measurements.

[wow]

Yes, of cous!

Each sandpiper praises its swamp ...

[Lighten]

Yeah, and Putin also has babies. Found someone to believe.

[Mountain shooter]

Luneberg lenses do not affect the thermal signature. And they have a very different "signature" depending on the angle. Or there must be a lot of them.

[Harry.km]

Quote: Mountain Shooter

And they have a very different "signature" depending on the angle. Or there must be a lot of them.

So the all-angle stealth has not yet been invented ... The lens simply distorts the amplitude of the reflected signal, for example, from the frontal direction. And with the rest of them, and so it can be seen)

[APASUS]

OBS - one grandmother said!
The Turks are no longer interested in anything as soon as they follow the F-35 and F-22
Extradition by the Bulgarians for wishful thinking ...............

Well, there’s someone who, and the Bulgarians will certainly not flatter the Turks

Where did you notice flattery there? Here, an attempt at petty fawning for the Americans is very clearly visible! An attempt to push the Turks and the Americans and curry favor with this

[Vitaly gusin]

According to the Bulgarian portal Bulgarian Military, these vehicles moved over the Black Sea and over the territory of Turkey.
Triumphs were tested at least three times on American stealth. AviaPro news agency indicates that not only F-35 aircraft, but also more classified F-22s appeared in the detection range of systems.
Information Agency AviaPro indicates that not only F-35 aircraft appeared in the detection zone of systems, but also more classified F-22s.
It was necessary to add just a little "Information Agency AviaPro indicates ".
And what a yellow-military site is, I hope many know.

[Grazdanin]

I am directly surprised by the people who link AviaPro and Channel Star. So self-discredited sources are hard to find.

[Boratsagdiev]

Aviapro - has long been a garbage dump, all the nonsense is collected and placed.

[Grazdanin]

I do not criticize Russia, I love Russia. The current Russian government and its decisions are what deserves criticism.
S400 sale that Turkey is currently testing, a betrayal of Russian interests. All test results will go to the NATO piggy bank. This news is an example, even if it is fake.

[Nastia makarova]

1. this is a cropped version
2. sold not only Turkey but also to others
3. generally do not sell new weapons ??? because nobody needs the old

[Grazdanin]

Tell Oleg Peshkov’s family.

[Nastia makarova]

moreover, Peshkov and s-400 ??? no connection

[Prisoner]

What are the results is not known. But judging by the hysterics arranged by the Americans over the S-400 in Turkey, they can be very encouraging. Especially since the Polish "partners" nerves could not stand it, climbed with excuses. It looks like they were worried about the gentleman.

[Maks1995]

Empty text. Well, lenses, well arranged, so radars are needed for this.

Here from what distance they saw / did not see with lenses .... but not a word about this in the article

[Swan]

Now let the manufacturer send the data. Such "customer reviews"

[rocket757]

Objective information on this subject with Gulkin nose and where it is hidden, go guess it.
Mostly solid fortune telling.

[Grazdanin]

And who will give them this info in the public domain? Of course, I would like to see a sign with information at what distance, at what height, under what weather conditions, under what operating parameters of the radar, etc. Fki is detected, with what probability they are infected, by what means defeat is possible. But something tells me we won’t see it))

[rotmistr60]

Well, Bulgarians are certainly great experts in the S-400. In their imagination, they "tested" it in all modes and realized that it was impossible to see the American plane, because it was American. They lick diligently and at all levels.

[_Ugene_]

here who followed someone else with a question, the F-35 could fly with lenses and analyze the signal characteristics of the S-400 radar

[Petrik66]

For both sides. USA and Russia, this issue is critical.
Option one (patriotic) - If the S400 sees amerovskie "invisible", then 35 with its flaws and price, did not give up to anyone. Then they will have to admit: Fucked up to the full, did super expensive shit, and in general, something went wrong. Congress and the Senate begin showdowns at the district level, wondering - And where did the green yards go, who actually will pay for the banquet. Then, they will find a Russian trace and introduce new sanctions against a group of Russian Nenets - reindeer herders (only they are not yet under sanctions). Then they start making a poker face and selling their flying g ... to everyone who considers Americans to be chiefs. After all, the example of F105 has already been and bought it, but where to go?
Option two (liberal). the flying prodigy is not visible until it flies over the C400 control car. Then, in Warsaw and Vilnius and Kiev, large-scale holidays are held, and prominent military observers and retired generals from the cavalry say that they have long known this. Ours, after a short conversation with the Guarantor, when he will explain to them the whole depth of our depths in an extremely intelligible form, say that the blame is for the squinting Arabs, Turks or Iranians who, due to their limited mental abilities and Down's congenital syndrome, did not advance their entire General Staff further the ability to turn on the toggle switch On / Off. But if our gefreyter Vanya Pupkin and the old captain Mikhail Dyatlov were sitting there, then the Americans or the Masons would not smell at all. Then we show a cartoon with a description of the awesome characteristics of the new secret complex C 650 and say that we can shoot down stealth at the time of their exit from the hangar in Louisiana.
Conclusion - Until the C400 lands the F35 in the presence of a pool of journalists, and live, or the flyer with the F35 does not throw an empty can from Yury Zhmotov, Ensign, at the moment he addresses a small need for a rocket launcher, nothing will be clear. And so we have a lot of retired senior admirals and just colonels who have to earn money, I print various nonsense. with an extremely smart look.

If S400 sees amerovskie "invisible"

Everything is much more complicated. At what heights and ranges does he see? At an altitude of 10-12 km is one thing, 150-200 meters is another. Under what radar settings and weather conditions? They saw it on the F35 radar, were able to Identify it as F35? Is the signal quality enough to aim the rocket? A lot of variables that affect the final result.

Your reasoning is correct. But so far, what is happening in Iran confirms only one version.
Tonight, explosions were reported in the warehouses of missiles of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps west of Tehran, in the Garmadareh and Quds area.
Iran’s Aerospace Forces have also reportedly used two ground-to-air missiles against an airplane or a drone.

[Grazdanin]

It seems that info was about the supply of missiles or a component to the C300 to Iran. All at the checkout.

This is one of the first reports in the morning, so it is still difficult to say something concretely, but the fact that in two weeks six "technical accidents" at military facilities, including the production of modern centrifuges, raises many questions.

[DominickS]

To see something he will see, like any other radar. The question is at what distance. At enough to destroy the target and take countermeasures, or a second before the HARM is imprinted in the radar.

[mag nit]

Well, the Poles know better.

[Elephant]

It is clear that with a Luneberg lens, stealth is clearly visible by radar. But in a fighting position without a lens - somehow vaguely. And it is still not clear from what distance the 35th detects the 400th radar, or how the 400th radar is detected by various means of detection / target designation, including Avax, drones and, of course, satellites.

[voyaka uh]

The S-400 has a centimeter AFAR, which comes as standard.
But you have to carry around with you and the bulky radar meter range,
and another additional radar. With these three radars
trying to point missiles at the stealth.
This large concentration of radars and antennas is visible very far away.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

In the case of combat readiness of the S-400 within 170-200 km, they would not have been seen at all

The Poles say so, as if it was not a Turkish military, but Polish journalists sitting at the S-400 remotes and monitors)))

To eat or not is absolutely not important. Of course, the Turks already know for sure, but they are silent. They are not allowed to publish their results. their Americans then ..... After all, the sales market of these invisibles will be lost. And we must admit that we bought shit .... It's like in a joke about Khoja Nasreddin. He decided to get a little crazy. He put an ordinary cat in a cage, and announced that it was a talking cat. Very wise cat. He hung a cage in the barn and lets visitors in, but ONE. For tanga. Each visitor, of course, is convinced that he was deceived, but to admit it is a shame. I am ashamed. Therefore, all, leaving the barn, confirm- WHAT WISE TALKING CAT!

[doubovitski]

And what, an airplane flying to the show takes off its protective coating? And what about devices that enhance visibility in normal, non-combat conditions - Luneberg lenses are switched on in order to confuse the enemy, "accustom" him to good visibility, and in combat conditions to do what he does not expect? Disappear? Difficult to implement and only for premature babies, sufficient explanation.

Those. This prodigy flies and the pilot, in addition to solving his combat missions, must track - in whose air defense zone he is and turn on / off the Luneberg lens (turn on / off the symbol of his actions ) with fantastically clear tracking of radar limits. And they also need to inform their accomplices that at some (very approximate) moment of time, a non-enemy aircraft will suddenly appear on their radar, counterintelligence should work out so that this message does not get to "probable enemies", etc. etc.
Too complicated, and coupled with the wildly expensive service, this seems like a miracle of technology to me from the word ABSOLUTELY.
After all, even if the desert barmalei knock down this miracle of technology from the Mosin rifle - the stripes will still say that it passed the magnet test for bullets of antique weapons.
