American press: "F-35 overcame one of the most advanced air defense systems in the world"

During the Red Flag exercise, the United States Air Force, Royal Air Force and Royal Australian Air Force managed to "break" the air defense network of a potential enemy. The main "work" was done by the F-35, according to a Popular Mechanics article on the fifth-generation American fighter jet.

The publication described the course of the exercise, in which both the fourth generation fighters F-16, F-15 and Typhoon, and the fifth - F-22 and F-35 took part. Actions aviation the three countries coordinated the E-8 Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS) combat control and targeting aircraft.



During the maneuvers, fourth-generation fighters played the main role, and the F-35 conducted covert surveillance. The enemy was portrayed by American aircraft in Russian livery.

(...) enemy fighters in Russian Su-30 livery began to approach

- writes the edition.

The publication does not report what actions the planes took, but emphasizes that in the end the coalition planes won, and the main role was played by the F-35 fighter, which managed to overcome the advanced air defense system, which is understood as the Russian one, judging by the coloring of the "enemy".

Ultimately, the F-35 was victorious, breaking one of the world's most advanced air defense networks and transmitting data to missile-powered fighters such as the F-16.

- adds the edition.

The author of the article recalls that the main advantage of the F-35 is computing power, not speed and weapons. To date, the main problems with the fifth generation fighter are associated with its high cost and software, but over time this will all be fixed.

                They used in the exercises Its "the most advanced" air defense system.
                They managed to crack it.

              I would be surprised if the "Russian" planes did not win at their exercises. They are far from GK Zhukov, who in the operational-staff game in January 1941, playing for the "Western", gouged General Pavlov, playing for "ours". What can they tell the world, even if they lie to themselves?

              The war showed that in the first game, where a real scenario was played out, Zhukov was right and everything happened the way he did. But in the second game, the "orientalists", having applied what is now called "cheating" in computer games and weightlifting, won. According to the second scenario, the Americans are now "playing". But how does it raise self-esteem ...

              By the way, in the first game Zhukov played for the "western" and fought offensive battles, won and received from Stalin "a cap". And to the second game, where Zhukov played "eastern" and again led "offensive battles on enemy territory" by forces of six cavalry ( laughing !) divisions - there were no complaints. The war, as I said above, confirmed the correctness of the first scenario, for which the disgrace was removed from Zhukov, and General Pavlov, Zhukov's "enemy" in both games and actually commanding the troops in the second scenario, was shot a month after the start of the war.
              In the event of a real war, will the Americans shoot the commander of such exercises?

                Before G.K. Zhukov, who in the operational-staff game in January 1941, playing for the "Western", gouged General Pavlov

                this is not entirely true. During the exercise, Zhukov pretended to be attacking, but at that time he placed the main forces for defense in a fortified area on the site of the Kaliningrad region.
                And Pavlov simply merged his main forces in a head-on assault on these fortifications
                So, rather, Pavlov gouged himself, having 40 combined-arms divisions against 30. In fact, the scenario of the beginning of the Finnish war was repeated

                  All this is true and correct, only you, excuse me, have not completely read the description and the course of the first game. Yes, Zhukov retreated to a prepared bridgehead, pulling Pavlov's strike forces 15-30 kilometers away from the main ones. And he struck at the junction of two groups of Pavlov, advancing forward and striking the flanks and rear of the "eastern". As a result, there was a threat of encirclement up to 20 rifle divisions and up to 4 tank brigades of the "eastern". The game was then terminated. 13 days of "play" time have passed.

                  Now compare with what happened in the first weeks of this war. Bialystok area - practically German generals acted according to Zhukov's "outline". Naturally, Berlin did not know about the details of this game. I doubt that, in principle, they knew about the game. But Zhukov is an excellent strategist and tactician. And in Berlin, the war was also led not by a half-educated corporal who imagined himself to be the greatest military leader in history, but by generals armed, like Zhukov, with the advanced military theory of that time. Therefore, the decisions were made similar.

                        Outsider (Michael). It was at this time that the troops were commanded not by Stalin, but by Zhukov. When he realized that they did not understand anything, then he became the commander-in-chief and created the General Staff from not only clever generals, but even majors. And Zhukov was the eldest where they would be sent. Waving a pistol at the nose of those who could fight with shouts I will shoot everyone. And when Stalin died, it turned out that Zhukov won the war. Three times he rewrote his memories and each time in a different way. I did not add and correct, but in different ways. And everything from memory, the pieces of paper that he sent to the General Staff, absolutely did not believe and did not want to.

                          Zhukov was appointed early. General Staff in January 1941 and expelled in July of the same year for the loss of command and control of troops through com. armies and corps.
                          Before the creation of the GKO, Stalin was not engaged in military leadership. Therefore, I could not "move away". He dealt with the STATE.
                          Zhukov, in his memoirs, read, often complains - "But Stalin did not give reserves." It was in the battle of Moscow (Zhukov commanded the Western Front). Why did Stalin, despite Zhukov's requests, not give reserves? Because Stalin was a strategist, and Zhukov, not being a strategist, asked them to perform only tactical tasks. Stalin, on the other hand, took up reserves for the planned defeat of the Germans near Moscow. Which he did.

                          And where did you see the discrepancy with my post? At the beginning of the war, it was Zhukov who was chief of the General Staff of the Red Army. As for military leadership, no one could do it without Stalin's approval, and I did not even write that Stalin had to do it.

                      About Zhukov - a strategist, it is doubtful.

                      I think it is not worth raising such questions. Many copies have already been broken in this field. It is doubtful that Zhukov did not see the ultimate goal of this or that operation, because this differs a strategist from a tactician - he sees a tactician in the long term, and a tactician only in the short term, which was a problem for many commanders. Judging by the huge operational losses, his tactics were just lame, although today it is difficult to judge this objectively - there are a lot of opposing opinions, opinions of contemporaries are needed, which also differ due to the desire of each person to look better than they actually did.

                    Hitler should not be considered an idiot.
                    he himself understood the limitations of his knowledge and usually did not meddle in tactics - only in general strategic decisions. Most of his interventions were rigidly dictated by the link between the influence of the tactical outcome on more global events.
                    For example, the defense of oil fields in Hungary or a ban on retreat from Stalingrad or risky attempts to take the MSC at any cost in the late autumn of 1941.

                      he himself understood the limitations of his knowledge and usually did not meddle in tactics - only in general strategic decisions.

                      Hitler's general strategic decisions -
                      In April 1941, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was on the verge of a great victory: his Afrika Korps secured positions in the immediate vicinity of the Suez Canal and was ready to drive out British troops from there. All that was needed for the conquest of Egypt was the strengthening of Rommel's group by the rapid transfer of two panzer divisions. Rommel accused the Chief of the General Staff of the Ground Forces Franz Halder of refusing to transfer additional divisions to Egypt, not knowing that the general only obediently fulfilled the will of the Fuhrer.

                      Guderian, at a meeting with Hitler, expressed his position on an urgent attack on Leningrad and Moscow, the fall of which made it possible to bring the final success in the war closer. Hitler responded by vehemently accusing his commanders of incompetence and strongly insisted on the need to capture an important industrial area in the south-east of Ukraine. However, the Soviet leadership used a temporary respite to prepare for the defense of the capital.

                      In the spring of 1943, Germany was in a critical situation on the Eastern Front. Many German generals realized that only defensive action could save the army from disaster. But Hitler made the same mistake as at Stalingrad. "He was going to attack a real fortress and did not take full advantage of mobile tactics, confronting the Russians in the place that they themselves chose," - criticized the Fuhrer Manstein. At the Kursk Bulge, the Wehrmacht lost that tank potential (about 1500 vehicles), which Guderian later counted on.

                      Germany still had a weapon that had no analogues in the world - the Me.262 jet. In 1943, the aircraft was undergoing revision. Hitler in the modified car wanted to see not only a fighter, but also a bomber. The Luftwaffe leadership recognized the idea of ​​a universal aircraft as extremely unsuccessful. The Reich Chancellor, of course, continued to insist on his own. Disagreements in the military leadership led to the fact that with the opening of the Second Front, the high-speed bomber was not ready. The delay cost Germany a complete defeat in the air war.

                      And this is far from all ... He was not, perhaps. But a little less ambition and more listening to the generals - perhaps he would have been more fortunate.

                      I apologize for the very long quotation, but a lot of books have been written about this - from the memoirs of the generals themselves to the books of Western authors, mind you.
                      One of them - A. Bevin. "Hitler's 10 fatal mistakes." I recommend on the internet. The author is an American, very far from the "red" ideas. A clean analysis of the confrontation between Hitler and his top command. I got interested a few years ago. https://royallib.com/book/bevin_aleksander/10_fatalnih_oshibok_gitlera.html

                        I know perfectly well how many German commanders in their memoirs rolled a barrel at Hitler.
                        I also know that Hitler simply attributed some of the "brilliant" decisions to himself.

                        the transfer of two tank divisions.


                        This book is written by an amateur.

                        We read Rommel:
                        At this time, the field marshal wrote:
                        “The fact that the German units in the Panzer Army from 1 to 20 August used up twice as much supplies as were delivered to Africa during the same period, best describes the situation. At the end of this period, German units lacked 16 soldiers, 000 tanks and 210 armored personnel carriers, as well as, at the lowest estimates, 175 other vehicles. If we had not captured the large British warehouses in Marmarica and western Egypt, we would not have been able to hold on at all. Food rations are so meager and small that we are sick of them just by looking at them. As always, the fuel and ammunition situation is dire, and we have to resort to the strictest economy. We often have to not respond to enemy fire just to conserve ammunition. But the British artillery fire for hours at our troops, suffering from heat and hardship. "


                        Mediterranean shipments were interrupted by the British fleet and aviation - the Italian fleet could not even meet the urgent need for ammunition and supplies, and the transfer of two TDs to the secondary theater of the VD is out of the imagination of the author of the book.
                        What Rommel writes about the attacks on local communications:
                        “Since the end of July, the KVAC has shifted the brunt of their operations to our communications between African ports and the front line. They fire at our convoys and sink one barge after another. Not a single ship docked in the harbor of Bardia or Mersa Matruh, and often even in Tobruk, is safe from attacks by British bombers. British ships also operate in coastal waters "


                        Mediterranean communications:
                        Among other things, Rommel began to worry about the supply situation. People could be transported to Africa by plane, and from July to August, 36 people were transported there that way. But tanks, armored vehicles, guns, cars and fuel were delivered by sea by the rapidly dwindling Italian merchant fleet. At the end of July, everything delivered helped Rommel only to compensate for the losses, he could not create a reserve. And this despite the fact that in July the maximum amount of cargo was delivered to Africa, and the losses were only 500%.

                        Hitler did not want to fight Britain. Britain did not want to fight Hitler. Churchill insisted on opening a second front in such a way that would cut off the Red Army from Europe and was ready to help Hitler in this. But the United States did not want England to rule the planet and therefore did not agree with England. Only through France. Then the planet will be ruled by two countries, according to Roosevelt's idea, the USA and the USSR. Churchill wrote that he could not do anything against this union and explained it this way on one side of me sat an American bison, on the other side a Russian bear, and between them sat a British donkey.

                The funniest thing happened when they did not win in their exercises. And if a gentleman cannot win by the rules, he changes the rules.
                Millennium Challenge 2002

                The Reds, under the command of Marine Corps Lieutenant General (retired) Paul K. Van Riper, used old techniques to evade the Blues' more advanced electronic tracking and targeting systems, and used motorcycle signalmen to transmit orders to the front lines of defense. as well as light signals from the Second World War for launching aircraft in conditions of complete radio silence.

                The Reds received an ultimatum from the Blues, in fact demanding their complete surrender within 24 hours. With intelligence on the approach of the BLU fleet, the Reds used a fleet of small vessels to locate the BLU ships on the second day of the exercise. After that, the Reds launched a massive preemptive attack with cruise missiles on the Blue's ship formations, causing an overload of their air defense / missile defense systems and conditionally destroying 16 ships, among which were an aircraft carrier, 10 cruisers and 5 of 6 landing ships. The equivalent of such success in real combat would have resulted in the deaths of more than 20 personnel. Soon after the first strike, a significant part of the Blues' forces were conditionally sunk by the Reds, who, along with the classic military operations, used the Kamikaze tactics, the actions of which the Blues could neither reflect nor predict.

                At this point, the exercise was paused, the BLU forces were "revived" and the exercise rules were changed.

          Seriously?
          You would at least ask a question what is and what is not:
          Once after the liquidation of the Berlin Wall and the unification of Germany, the anti-aircraft missile systems, which were in service with the GDR army, became the object of close attention of Western experts. In the second half of 1992, two German Osa-AKM air defense systems were delivered to the Eglin airbase by a C-5V heavy military transport aircraft. Together with mobile complexes, German calculations arrived. According to the information released to the public, field tests with real launches at air targets in Florida lasted more than two months, and several radio-controlled air targets were shot down during the shooting.

          After the liquidation of the Warsaw Pact Organization and the collapse of the USSR, the United States ended up with air defense systems that the Americans could not even dream of earlier. For some time, Western experts were at a loss, not knowing where to start studying the wealth that had fallen on their heads. In the early 1990s, several working groups were created in the United States, staffed by military and civilian specialists.

          The tests were carried out at the Tonopah and Nellis test sites (Nevada), Eglin (Florida), White Sands (New Mexico). The main center for testing Soviet air defense systems in the 1990s was the vast Tonopah test site in Nevada, which is larger than the much more famous Nevada nuclear test site, located nearby.

          Although Czechoslovakia and Bulgaria managed to get the C-300PMU anti-aircraft missile systems (an export version of the C-300PS) before the liquidation of the ATS, and NATO experts had access to them, these countries chose to keep modern air defense systems in their possession.

          As a result, the Americans went for a trick, purchasing parts of the S-300PT / PS and S-300V air defense systems in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. In Ukraine, 35D6 and 36D6M radars were purchased, which were part of the regimental set of S-300PT / PS air defense systems, as well as the 96L6E all-altitude detector. At the first stage, the radar equipment was thoroughly tested, and then used during the exercises of military aviation of the Air Force, Navy and the USMC.

          By the middle of 1990, in addition to the C-300, the American defense research centers had a wide range of Soviet-made air defense equipment: Shilka ZSU-23-4, Strela-3 and Igla-1 MANPADS, 1 ”,“ Strela-10 ”,“ Osa-AKM ”,“ Cube ”and“ Circle ”, as well as object-based air defense systems С-75М3 and С-125М1. From an unnamed country of Eastern Europe to the United States, the C-200VE air defense system was delivered. Before the dissolution of the ATS, long-range complexes of this type were supplied to Bulgaria, Hungary, the GDR, Poland and Czechoslovakia from the middle of the 1980's.

          In addition to anti-aircraft systems, the Americans were very much interested in the capabilities of our radars for detecting air targets and weapon guidance radars. The radar instrument complex RPK-1 "Vaza", radars P-15, P-18, P-19, P-37, P-40, 35D6, 36D6M and radio altimeters PRV-9 were tested in field conditions with the participation of American combat aircraft. , PRV-16, PRV-17. At the same time, the P-18, 35D6 and 36D6M radars demonstrated the best results in detecting aircraft made with elements of low radar signature.

          A thorough study of the characteristics of radars and guidance stations of anti-aircraft missile systems made it possible to improve the jamming equipment and develop recommendations for evasion techniques and combating ground air defense systems.

        Apparently, you didn't have to take part in modeling situations, incl. combat. This technique is used very effectively when teaching on a variety of topics. When you sink a model of a ship in an experimental pool through the flow of water into one or another compartment, understanding and consideration are revealed very quickly and widely: what measures for survivability must be organized. Well this is an example.
        The air defense system could be simulated by the headquarters computer (beam aperture), own radars could be used.
        A banal example of "playing with toys" is the amusing shelves of Peter the Great, with the help of which he later slightly altered the map of Europe.

          They include Soviet and Russian anti-aircraft kits in the air defense system.
          and separate radars that they buy around the world.
          And they place them on their training grounds for such exercises.
          (This was not the first.)
          In addition, Patriot systems are densely located there.
          (which shoot down planes remarkably, they only have problems with BR).
          I have already tried to tell somehow about a similar exercise, where the F-35 passed
          through dense, multi-layered missile air defenses unnoticed.
          They didn't even shoot at them, because they weren't flogged on the radar.

            Warrior, when will you accept the fact that most of the information about the invincible Penguin is advertising brochures. Since the "fifth generation". This project was originally commercial. It literally meant that it would be sold. Without massive sales abroad, its price is already not small and becomes astronomical at all. Therefore, they will draw anything for you on the "exercises", even flights in outer space. Because it is required to cover the market as much as possible. Crush all competitors. European including. It is necessary to force them, if they do not continue the development of their fighters, then at least go the same way as the United States, bear the same colossal costs and lag behind at every turn.
            Therefore, the radars "do not see" him and all fighters lose to him. And he comes to them "in the side" ... The penguin must be sold. The penguin must kill the European aviation industry. NATO should only buy US aircraft. And not think about your own. In the mass consciousness of Europeans, it is necessary to hammer in with nails the assurance of the absolute superiority of the US over the European, so that they would not even dare to think aside.

They will forget about air defense, about reliable machines of the 27 \ 29 family, about the outstanding MiG-31. They will rush to do "like the Penguins" and eventually will overstrain, like the USSR overstrained in the arms race. And the United States will simply generate media noise and impose sanctions.

          I certainly didn’t have to take part in simulating combat situations. But something in my heart is telling me that there is some difference between simulating situations and overcoming layered air defense. And the concept of modeling (mathematical) says that the difference can be very large, up to the opposite
          1. 0
            4 February 2021 09: 20
            Mathematical modeling is only the first step. Further, a teaching is organized, where this model is tested in practice. Moreover, this technique is actively used by the adversary (and we now) in the most important areas of security: air defense, physical protection of various objects: nuclear power plants or transportation of radioactive materials, for example. Based on the results, the required set of measures and means is determined to disrupt the enemy's mission.
            As for the difference between modeling and real overcoming of layered air defense, where do you get the calculation of the required number of false targets, electronic warfare systems, anti-radar missiles and finally the number of missiles in a mass launch to destroy your target with a given probability? only from staff calculations. And what about the developed tactics for applying all this goodness on such simulations? Mathematics and military thought go around embracing for several centuries ... millennia.

Modeling allows you to calculate and play future wars or battles on computers - this is what the headquarters of Zhukov and Rokossovsky lost in their heads, and not boringly sitting at the tables in the headquarters, leafing through reports and preparing summary sheets.

                  Of course this is a joke. I just wanted to say that correct input is needed for correct modeling. For example, the model of the air defense of the Arab fisheries, when simulating targets with input data, most likely had the parameters of the Iranian Air Force aircraft. And the blow was struck by completely different means.
                  So it is in the correctness of the input data, both for "blue" and "red" in the discussed modeling, there are HUGE doubts.

I love military history, so from what I read, I concluded that someone who did not evaluate the enemy, or lost or washed with blood. For example, the United States broke into the air defense of Iraq, Yugoslavia and this is a country that has not led 30 years of major military conflicts, according to logic they should have lost hundreds of aircraft. And the thing is that they "pathetically" learned from their own and others' mistakes.

And as a result, the pilots who fought in these machines without walkie-talkies, pointing from the ground with an outdated structure, probably asked themselves questions, because after all, the newspapers wrote that the country had given them perfect weapons.

          The "friendly Armenians" moving towards Geyropa with Pin.dosia and spitting towards Russia were absolutely indifferent to the Russian people, well, with the exception of the Armenian diaspora. Until Azerbaijan put Armenia in a certain position, the "friendly Armenians" did not even think about normalizing relations with Russia. On the other hand, why the fuck ... Russia had to spend its resources on protecting Armenia. AND? The fighting took place on the territory of Azerbaijan and Karabakh. There were no clashes on the territory of Armenia. Azerbaijan, unlike Armenia, is not a member of the CSTO and has every right to have absolutely any country as its allies. All armored vehicles in Armenia were produced by the USSR and Russia is not going to supply new equipment to Armenia for free. Enough for her and the Russian base in Gyumri, which the Armenians tried to close ... The Russian air defense covers our military bases and does not interfere in the hostilities of other countries, either in Syria or in Armenia. Air defense systems supplied to other countries have very significant differences from the systems used in the Russian Armed Forces.
          But what is most interesting, after the magic pendel from Azerbaijan, the Armenians suddenly began to love Russia.

        From your reply, I believe that you did not have to deal with the issues of intelligence and detection. Then I will tell you one example from my work. During my service, EP-3E aircraft with a more powerful radar, an RTR complex and a computing complex began to appear instead of the P-3C patrol aircraft. Our photo of this aircraft, taken in Indian, was the third photo in the Union of this difficult foe. This observer had enough 2 radar pulses every 15 minutes to guide our destroyer without any problems. But instead of a bearing and an approximately calculated range for a continuously operating radar, as before, now I could only say with certainty that this reconnaissance officer is working in such and such a square with dimensions of hundreds by hundreds of kilometers. In a square of 10-20 thousand square kilometers Is there a difference? Do you feel her?
        We were unable to locate an entire Ticonderoga-class cruiser, although we knew its approximate course, speed, last coordinates, and our approximate point (or area) of meeting. Empty. Apparently, he, too, was warned about our rendezvous and fulfilled the directive of his command - not to approach. Passed in the middle of the night in complete radio silence. But my operators did not sit with me that night in vain, we realized that everything is not obvious and not simple.
        It's complicated. And your remark betrays a person in you who is very far from practice. I advise you to be more restrained and show more thoughtfulness and curiosity than propaganda and demagoguery.

          - Compared to the western ones, they see and hear very badly.
          ... and the command of the air defense systems have no idea that the attackers need to "cut their heads"?

          - Based on long-term experiments at the same "Red Flags" and "Northern Frontiers". The role of mini-AWACS in the US Air Force today is the F-22.
          Good. Suppose that we really can't do anything with the super-duper Penguin ( lol ) ...

          - Chances are scanty ...
          And what about the rest of the forces participating in the "breakthrough of the forward air defense"? Are they also "untouchable" for detection and destruction means? Far from it!

          - So the air operation of the US Air Force is planned as follows:
          1. The first wave - BR, KR and F-22 destroy long-range radars and long-range air defense systems, as well as command posts, centers and control and notification centers, communication centers.
          2. The F-35s continue to destroy the air defense system on a smaller scale.
          3. Only in the third wave are 4th generation fighters and attack aircraft going - destroying ground forces and all kinds of trifles.
          4. Combat UAVs are finishing their clean-up operations by means of round-the-clock patrolling in the theater.
          And communication lines - too ...

          - Their communication lines have a very high noise immunity, unlike Russian ones ...

      "The author of the article reminds that the main advantage of the F-35 is computing power, not speed and weapons."
      Or maybe, against the background of the numerous problems of this aircraft - it is easier to transport it on a cart to the desired place, where it will suppress the enemy with its computing power?

      I still don't understand ... whose air defense system did they overcome? Your ???

      Whose is it? Of course their own ... Ours would not have let them through for any price ... This is not a Gorbach-marked for them ...

      The American press also published that during military exercises in Russia, tests were carried out for the detection of American F - 22 and F-35, all enemy aircraft were detected and destroyed, and our Russian aircraft flew over all of America and were not detected, safely returned to soy airfields!

      This is probably the same Russian Carapace that they took from the Libyans and are now trying their luck on advanced weapons ... lol

      They hacked their own air defense system with their planes? More than original! The game is one-to-one.

      "Today, the main problems with the fifth generation fighter are related to its high cost and software, but over time this will all be fixed."
      Great. Only cost and software. That is, the practical inability to fly supersonic is considered a trifle? I am glad smile And what about the oxygen system? Already allowed to fly above 7 km? And finished the helmet? And I haven’t heard anything about this yet. Maybe who knows?

      - I know: the F-22 has been allowed to fly up to the practical ceiling (19.8 km) for many years, the oxygen system was in order, the system of the high-altitude compensating suit was faulty, the F-35 supersonic is allowed, the helmet works, but it continues to be improved (the cost is high 400 thousand bucks).

      Even so? fool Then you have Hitler - a victim? belay

      - Well, what are you! Hitler is Stalin's tool. Quite a blunt weapon. He realized too late that he was being used. But I realized it by 1941, after Molotov's visit to Berlin on New Year's Eve. Here is a letter from Hitler to Mussolini, transmitted to him a day before the attack on the USSR:

      the US Air Force air operation is planned as follows:
      Thanks for the info ...
      But there is such an option:

      As can be seen from the diagram, manned aircraft are supposed to be used only in the IV phase of the internal control system ... First, the GZO (which they do not have yet!), Then UAVs of all stripes, and last of all - aviation. Yes

      I did not begin to separately single out either reconnaissance UAVs, which, along with satellites, monitor the theater of military operations constantly in real time, or electronic warfare equipment, which are used with the support of both UAV aircraft (from the zones), and, in the end, 4th generation aircraft, where aircraft of group EW means are used both from zones and from battle formations (if necessary), plus all 4-generation aircraft have individual EW stations. But both reconnaissance aircraft and electronic warfare aircraft are support aviation, undoubtedly very important. They provide echelons of strike aviation.
      Trap targets are used as needed.
      .....................................
      One of the main factors necessary for success is stealth and surprise, so all imitating traps should be used very carefully and only as needed, they unmask attacks on ground targets of attack stealth aircraft.

      Let it overcome in combat conditions, and not in games "in the sandbox", then it will be possible to talk about something. And so this is just cheap bravado.
      If everything was so bad, then the release of the aircraft would not be suspended, and the countries would not abandon it.
      An ordinary PR campaign.
