Anti-ship missile tests continue in the US

The US Navy continues to test new aviation anti-ship missiles of two types - Boeing AGM-84N Harpoon Block II + and Lockheed Martin Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM), blog reports bmpd citing Jane's Missiles & Rockets magazine.

Boeing F / A-18E Super Hornet aircraft of the US Navy with a new Boeing AGM-84N Harpoon Block II + anti-ship missile suspended

The “first“ free ”launch (without hitting the target, but with the full launch of the guidance system) of the new Boeing AGM-84N Harpoon Block II + anti-ship missile was produced by the US Navy from the Boeing F / A-18E Super Hornet at Point-Mugu training ground off the coast of California on US Pacific Coast 18 November 2015 of the year. The launch made it possible to demonstrate all the capabilities of the control system, including receiving a rocket after launching data from an aircraft carrier and the operation of the homing system, ”writes the author of the article, Richard Scott.

“Before, as part of the development of the Harpoon Block II + PCR, 152 bench tests were made, 15 launches from the ground installation and 16 launches from the aircraft, but without full activation of the guidance system,” he specified.

It is reported that the AGM-84N Harpoon Block II + is being created "as a modernization set of armed AGM-84D Harpoon Block 1С missiles for accelerated enhancement of the anti-ship capabilities of the F / A-18E / F aircraft." It is expected that it will be adopted by the end of 2017.

According to the author, the rocket is distinguished by a new guidance system, including GPS correction, the Strike Common Weapon Data Link (SCWDL) data interchange equipment with the carrier aircraft or with other aircraft and ship terminals (which allows the missile to be retargeted in flight, to direct a goal with a significant reduction in the time of operation of the homing head, etc.) and an improved active radar homing head (ARLGSN) with improved target selection and increased noise immunity. "

A little earlier, on November 3, the tests of the “Lockheed Martin Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM)” advanced mass-scale layouts began.

She, according to the publication, "is an anti-shipping version of the Lockheed Martin AGM-158B Joint Air-to-Surface Stand-off Missile Extended Range (JASSM-ER) high-precision tactical aircraft cruise missile."

Anti-ship missile tests continue in the US

For accelerated development of the rocket from the budget allocated additional funds. It is assumed that LRASM will reach its initial operational readiness (EOC) stage in the US Air Force in the 2018 fiscal year (as part of the B-1B bombers), and in the US Navy - in the 2019 fiscal year (as part of the F / A-18E / F weapons ).

        Oh, and the electronics parameters are no longer important?
        Now, when electronic warfare plays a huge role, speed and so on are no longer as important as before.
        An example of the Arab-Israeli war, at first the P-15 was sunk by Eilat, and then not a single missile from Syrian boats could hit the target.

          The United States has in development - SM-6 - an American anti-aircraft missile. Developed by Raytheon.
          The arrival of SM-6 missiles in service is planned in 2016

          The RIM-174 SM-6 ERAM missile (Eng. Extended Range Active Missile) is an evolution of the RIM-156 SM-2ER family of missiles. The main difference is an advanced guidance system at the terminal site; while the previous missiles used semi-active homing on the target, followed by a radar beam from the carrier ship, the new SM-6 missile is equipped with an active homing head.


          The SM-6 rocket has the following advantages:

          The ability to simultaneously intercept any number of targets - previous missiles that had semi-active guidance (that is, they needed a target radar at the terminal site with the radar of the carrier ship) could simultaneously intercept no more targets than there were target radars on the carrier ship (usually 3-4), which forced to interrupt after interception in a few seconds to switch radars to a new target and give target designation to the next flying missiles. The SM-6 missile, equipped with its own active GOS, does not need to “illuminate” the target with the radar of the launch vehicle, which allows you to simultaneously intercept any number of targets with any number of missiles.
          The possibility of hitting low-flying targets, sheltered from the radars of the carrier ship beyond the horizon - allows you to intercept low-flying cruise missiles for the entire duration of their flight, starting from the detection line. At the same time, the SM-6 is displayed by autopilot in the calculated area of ​​the target location (data on the target's approach can be obtained from another ship or aircraft integrated into the common BIUS network), then turns on its active GOS and starts searching and homing.
          The ability to effectively hit inconspicuous targets at long distances - due to the proximity of the active radar in the head of the guidance of the rocket and the target, as well as a more effective target irradiation angle.
          The possibility of more effective counteraction by means of electronic warfare - due to the two-way data exchange with the carrier ship and the possibility of comparing data from the onboard radar of the rocket and the radar of the ship.
          The ability to intercept ballistic targets - thanks to the new accelerator, the SM-6 missile has wide capabilities in the field of tactical missile defense; it is capable of effectively intercepting tactical missiles and warheads of ballistic missiles of small and medium range at the entrance to the atmosphere. This application does not require modification of the Aegis ECU.

            As I was correctly corrected by a man under the nickname Old 26, it would probably be more correct to compare this rocket with our analogue, the Kh-35UE. But she was shown to the people already in 92, at the "Mosaeroshow-92" ...
            JSC Concern Radioelectronic Technologies in 2015 announced the possibility of placing the Kh-35UE missile on board the deck version of the Ka-52K helicopter in case of upgrading the airborne radar. This will increase the helicopter detection range by 2 times, which is almost 200 km.

        Aircraft from the so-called "trough" by you provide cover for the entire ship formation (escort and aircraft carrier), submarines from the CD. And they carry out reconnaissance at a very long distance (carrier-based AWACS aircraft, anti-submarine aviation) as well as firing the corresponding anti-ship missiles from under the radio horizon in rotation mode at enemy ship formations, without exposing themselves, as well as themselves, to any danger.
        I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t underestimate underestimating the capabilities of the enemy. Moreover, he was already engaged in the development of modern RCCs, while having even what we never had. sad

    The launch made it possible to demonstrate all the capabilities of the control system, including receiving the rocket after launching data from the carrier aircraft and the operation of the homing system
    The key word here is "demonstrate" (yeah, they dropped the truncated and began to demonstrate secret development to the whole world). From the very beginning of the article, there are logical inconsistencies, namely:
    1. receiving data from the carrier after the start is the last century, and its middle, and not high-precision long-range weapons!
    2. the work of the homing system "without hitting the target" even with a blunt disc ??? So this is done perfectly at the stand without killing the aircraft resource ...

        I will explain for the very smart, I will start from the end:
        1. An air-launched or ground-launched missile (with at least an inertial guidance system), which, in general, in this case, at the end of the trajectory, doesn’t use its own guidance system, which is initially tested on the bench. A radio fuse for anti-aircraft shells has been used massively since the 44 year (1944). In the case when the GOAL IS NOT ATTENDED by the conditions of the demonstration as stated in the article, WHAT IS TESTED ??? Tell me the fool !!!
        2. These seven thousand pieces sunk one destroyer in the "Falklands Conflict" - An airborne exocet is a very special tool. You can master the money as much as they give, but not a single specialist has confirmed not only the real application, but also the REAL TESTS.

          And by "aliens" (but not the aviation option) - in November 1980, during the war between Iran and Iraq. Then Iranian boats sank two obsolete Soviet-built Iraqi missile boats with RGM-84A missiles.

          The last Today, an example of the large-scale use of the Harpoon anti-ship missile was the battle of the American and Iranian fleets in the Persian Gulf, which took place on April 18, 1988. The Iranian frigate Sahand and the Iranian frigate Sahand were flooded. (In my opinion, there are no survivors)

              X-65C / X-65SE - anti-ship cruise missile project based on the KR X-65. Not implemented.

              a .. A carrier aircraft (Tu-22M3 or another) can launch an X-65SE rocket from a height of 0,1 to 12 km at a speed of 540-1050 km / h for a sea target, the coordinates of which are known only tentatively. The launch of the rocket is carried out according to the principle of “shot and forgot”. A rocket flies to a given area at low altitude, being controlled by an inertial guidance system. At the intended location of the target, the missile increases the flight altitude and begins to barrage, turning on the active active radar homing until it captures the target.

              The X-65SE missile was exhibited at the MAKS-97 exhibition.

                200m-12000m (for "E": 600-10000 (KRRT limits)

                carrier speed = 720-830 km / h

                Cannot be 100m, base "product 120" (КР Х-65)
                It was reported that the Kh-65S was tested from the Tu-22M and is intended for the armament of Tu-95, Tu-142, Tu-22M, Tu-1b0 and others, including tactical ones. Its launch is carried out with a turret or beam PU. Interruptions in funding did not allow the start of serial production of the X-65C for the needs of the USSR Armed Forces, and then Russia. In 1993, RCC was offered for export under the index X-65SE.

                  I made copy-paste with airvare .. I just did not leave a link to the source.

                  It seemed to me that you are denying the existence of air-based missiles in Russia. So I remembered .. Something we were going to AUGi to drown. With maaalenkoy such a probability ... (18% approximately) BUT collected.
                  And your comments are nice to read, really. Probably either working or getting involved.

    In short, ask mattresses from our rockets, maybe they will sell, like the R-180 engines! and then again you’ll make some sort of nonsense !!! The most valuable thing about them is that they are noise immunity. laughing EW probably made laugh ...

    According to the author, the rocket is distinguished by a new guidance system, including GPS correction, the Strike Common Weapon Data Link (SCWDL) data interchange equipment with the carrier aircraft or with other aircraft and ship terminals (which allows the missile to be retargeted in flight, to direct a goal with a significant reduction in the time of operation of the homing head, etc.) and an improved active radar homing head (ARLGSN) with improved target selection and increased noise immunity. "
    A little earlier, on November 3, the tests of the “Lockheed Martin Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM)” advanced mass-scale layouts began.
    She, according to the publication, "is an anti-shipping version of the Lockheed Martin AGM-158B Joint Air-to-Surface Stand-off Missile Extended Range (JASSM-ER) high-precision tactical aircraft cruise missile."

    Well, they love to show themselves off as a "high-tech nation" with the help of the Latin abbreviation. Wherever you go - improved superABSDEF with vitamin "C". Why not write simply - two-channel radio correction with the subsequent inclusion of an active homing head with SDC.

    Something tells me that even to BrahMos this rocket will be far away ... and on the approach the hyper-speed BrahMos-2, and BrahMos-mini is available ...

    Why compare God's gift with an egg? You do not compare, for example, AK with a double-barreled shotgun, why is there such a comparison? Maybe it’s worth not comparing it with Bramos, and even more so with hypersonic Bramos-2, but comparing the comparable - our Uranus?

    The whole super-task of the Yankes is to keep the aircraft carrier trough intact, transporting "democracy" to the countries that the Yankees could not get at the most. The trough carries an airplane, which is the trough and they are trying to save it, less external tasks will be done, everything is on guarding the trough! am

    And this is the super task of any country that has aircraft carriers. If Russia will have them - this will be our task as well.

      Are you talking about the X-35 (3M24) “Uranus”? Then let’s compare it with the X-35UE, I think it will be more honest hi
