Media: American rocket after exercises in Europe was mistakenly returned to Cuba

168
The American air-to-surface Hellfire rocket (hellfire), sent without a warhead to 2014 in Spain for NATO maneuvers, was mistakenly returned to Cuba, not to the United States, RIA News Post by the Wall Street Journal.


Layout rocket Hellfire II.

At the end of the exercise, “the packaged ammunition arrived at the airport in Frankfurt, Germany, from where, for an unclear reason, the rocket was flown to Paris and loaded onto an Air France plane that departed for Havana,” the newspaper writes.

“Was it a bribe? Was it an intelligence service operation or just a series of mistakes? We are trying to figure this out, "
said the publication representative of the presidential administration.

The newspaper, citing competent sources, reports that the US administration "unsuccessfully tried to return the missile after a year of warming diplomatic relations with Cuba."

The interlocutors noted that the loss of ammunition "may mean the leakage of sensitive military technology."

            From the text of the article
            An American air-to-surface Hellfire (Hellfire) rocket, sent without a warhead to 2014 to Spain for NATO maneuvers, was mistakenly returned not to the United States, but to Cuba.
            At the end of the exercises, “the packaged ammunition turned out to be at the airport of german frankfurtfrom where, for an unexplained reason, a rocket delivered to Paris and loaded onto an Air France airplane that took off to Havana

            With exactly the same “mistake”, NATO missiles will someday appear in the DIASH group. And then Westerners will provocatively say that Russia allegedly provided them with them.
            It seems like a provocation of the western intelligence services.

              Hellfire is an advanced thing, and even if the RF has non-inferior counterparts. all the same, the technologies there are secret and very interesting to both Russia and China

              Therefore, I doubt that these are Western services - nobody gives such gifts to anyone
              Or a really stupid mistake, or still intelligence services of US opponents

              It is easy to guess who will get access to the missile from Cuba - first of all, it is China, then Russia, of course, and Iran - the third friend of the Bolivarians

              Earlier, if you remember, Iran "planted" US drones (probably with the help of Russian means)
              Iran did not hesitate immediately announced openly that it would provide access to technology to China and Russia

                  "Iranian experts did not waste time and created their own drone based on the American drone. Political scientist Kave Afrasiabe told RT why this is an important achievement for Tehran.

                  The Iranian military published a video recording the successful flight of a high-tech drone. It is a copy of a reconnaissance aircraft designed by the United States and intercepted by Iran three years ago. The Lockheed Martin Sentinel drone was a secret development used by the CIA.

                  A total of 20 such devices were produced; their technical characteristics are strictly classified. It is only known that drones are equipped with advanced technologies that impede their detection and allow them to detect the smallest nuclear activity on earth. Barack Obama expected the Iranians to return the captured drone, but Tehran refused the Americans this request. Earlier we talked with political scientist Cave Afrasiabi. He believes that the development of stealth technologies in the field of air defense is a significant achievement for Iran.
                  “Against the backdrop of US attempts to use the negotiations on the nuclear program as a lever of pressure on Iran, the development of stealth technologies has become an important and impressive achievement for Tehran. They will allow you to track the movement of missiles in the region, in particular in the Persian Gulf, as well as reflect radar signals and break through air defense systems. I think the United States will have to come to terms with this and recognize that Iran is a country that has drones, and we need to take it seriously, ”says Afrasiabi.
                  As a result, the Americans still managed to get a drone - a toy, pink. One children's store in Iran decided to joke by sending him to the White House. " bully

                    Did they plant technology too? Was there a flash drive with a drone manufacturing process?

                        - 2011 December 05 - the media are circulating information from the Fightglobal website that the Iranian air defense system has landed an American RQ-170 Sentinel UAV using the Russian complex of the Avtobaza executive RTR. Taking into account the fact that the very fact of the landing or shooting down of the UAV has not been confirmed and there is a likelihood of an accident due to loss of control without external influence, this information seems to us untrue and even exceeds the theoretical potential of Avtobaza.

            an American air-to-surface missile with a semi-active laser or active radar guidance (embodying the principle of "shot and forgot").

            Two types of guidance. Radar can simply be scored or tricked. And the laser, to score from the same side with a more powerful beam, and if the control coding is known, then send it to where you need it, but this is already more difficult.

            You forget that the control system on the plane is computer. If the computer does not work, then the rocket does not see anything. Some will say that he launched a rocket and forgot, so first you need to launch it. And this is the activation of the rocket and its electronic filling, the computer does not work - nothing works. In addition, the missile guidance head itself is still electronics, which can also be disabled in the same way, and then all the lasers and homing heads are electronic scrap.

          False. The drone was seriously damaged. Its bottom was carefully hidden by the Islamic state from the eyes of the public, and its wings were glued.

          In the simplest version, they can simply be jammed with interference.
          Rave. No one has ever succeeded.

          A more sophisticated option is to crack an encrypted signal transmitted from ground stations to unmanned vehicle control systems. After which it is drowned out and transmitted to the drone by new teams, already from its ground source.

      I had in mind the provocation of the Western special services of the following kind.
      To remove the guilt for the provision of high-tech weapons in the future, for example, for DIASH, a precedent has been created for the fact that the high-tech weapons of NATO countries, in principle, in a multi-way way of deliveries and dispatches, can "accidentally" get to the wrong place - without VINYA and INTENTION of the owners themselves.
      And it’s not necessary that it will be this particular American air-to-surface Hellfire rocket (“hellfire”). We can talk about everything, about anything - even about the atomic bomb!
      It is noteworthy that the DIASH fighters are asking and trying to get just such weapons for themselves. Probably, they will have it soon.

    Today I already wrote about this in the comments, so I won’t repeat it, but doubts torment me. Both news came out on the same day, the rocket ended up in Cuba in 2014. It’s already 2016, Rogozin made several visits to Cuba in 2014-2015. At the same time, Baran Obama announces a thaw in relations with Cuba. The bell opens like a casket, but this is only my private opinion, but I think that we have already studied this infernal fire from all angles. hi

    Americans very often use civil aviation and navy for insignificant transportation between Europe and America. So cheaper. It is enough for some of the emigrants at the cargo terminal to misunderstand what is written on the tag to the cargo - and travel around the earth is provided. In the West, a gigantic business is built on the hammer sale of lost goods and luggage. So the story of a missile that got in the wrong place is quite normal for their cargo transportation.

      On the Aliexpress website there is such a thing as a timer. There are several of them. In the simplest case, when the user does not follow the timer for receiving the parcel and the deadline for receipt has passed, then it’s useless for you to wait and they won’t even return the money. In addition, there is the concept of sellers on Aliexpress. So, some sellers profit from this, i.e. hack (cheat).

      By the way, this rocket embodies the principle of “fire and forget.” The rocket hits at 8 km.
      For example, a modification of the AGM-114R (Hellfire Romeo) - can be launched from any carrier, the new multi-purpose warhead provides for the destruction of such targets as armored vehicles, air defense systems, patrol ships, enemy manpower in shelters or caves. Previously, a special model of the Hellfire II rocket was required to defeat each of these targets. The guidance system is a combined, semi-active laser seeker and ANN;
      the main missile carriers are helicopters and drones such as the "predator".
      Depending on the modification of the missile, this case may have a very negative impact on the combat capability of the United States.

      And for us this is what the hell is necessary. We ourselves have a mustache.

      Whirlwind (GRAU index: 9K121, according to NATO classification: AT-16 Scallion) is an anti-tank missile system designed to arm Su-25T, Su-39 attack aircraft, Ka-50, Ka-52 helicopters, as well as boats and small patrols ships.

      ATGM is designed to destroy armored vehicles, including those equipped with dynamic protection, as well as low-speed (at speeds up to 800 km / h) air targets. Maximum firing range: By day: 10 km, at night: 5 (6) km. Target type: laser
      Control channels, daily: television. Night: low-level television, target tracking: automatic

      I think this rocket is also being adapted to our UAVs. Only ours can be launched from five meters, unlike the praised American hellfire.

      Yes, I agree, it is possible that the provocation and disinformation, especially since the United States bargaining for a missile with Cuba, did not particularly insist, but used it as an argument. So it is not known what special services this is luck.

      According to the Wall Street Journal, the incident occurred in 2014: the United States sent a missile to Europe, and then, for some unknown reason, it was transferred to Cuba instead of the United States. For a whole year, Washington, the newspaper writes, tried to tacitly convince Havana to return Hellfire, fearing that "the Cuban authorities may transfer technology associated with its sensors and guidance system to countries such as China, North Korea or Russia."
      According to the newspaper, federal agencies tried unsuccessfully to establish who was behind the incident - "spies or organized crime" - or "everything is explained by a rare coincidence of unfavorable circumstances." "Did someone receive a bribe to send it to the wrong place? Was it a special operation or a series of mistakes? This is what we are trying to find out," the newspaper quotes one of its sources from among American officials.
      According to him, in early 2014, Lockheed Martin Corporation sent a training missile from Orlando International Airport (Florida) to Spain for use in NATO exercises. After their completion, Hellfire was packed in Rota (province of Cadiz), where the Spanish-American naval base is located, and sent by truck to Madrid. From there, it was supposed to be transported by plane to German Frankfurt, and then transported to Florida. The cargo didn’t reach the destination; instead, as it turned out, the rocket was brought to Paris Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport and sent by Air France to Havana by cargo flight. When the logistics companies found this out, Hellfire was already on board an airplane flying to Cuba.
      Lockheed Martin realized that the missile was lost, and notified the US Department of State. He took up her search, which was complicated by unofficial negotiations with Havana on the normalization of relations between the countries.
      According to the newspaper, if it is established that the missile was lost due to a mistake, the State Department will stop the investigation and deal with Lockheed Martin. Under US law, this corporation could face a multimillion-dollar fine for violating the ban on the export of military or dual-use products.

      This is normal, electronics at the moment of detonation are no longer needed, and the cumulative stream should focus on the armor, therefore, detonation occurs at a certain distance.
      The Kornet, for example, has the main charge in the tail section, and the engine is located in the middle and nothing interferes.

      What is the point of making a thermonuclear bomb with a power of approximately 6 kilotons, it was of such a force that an explosion was detected if the same explosion is perfectly obtained with ordinary atomic charges. In addition, in order to detonate a thermonuclear device, it is necessary to detonate an atomic charge inside the hydrogen. And these are the very 6 kilotons.
      So what about the fusion of a thermonuclear device in the territory of the DPRK - complete nonsense.

    There is no use to anyone with this rocket! All electronics consists of PLCs and processors with closed firmware. They are almost impossible to read, and if you read them, then you won’t understand a damn thing! You will destroy the sea of ​​time of designers and all for nothing! In general, I am inclined to believe that this missile was SPECIALLY slipped in order to distract designers from the REAL business, at the same time to check their security system for lice, to check how much the Cubans agree to cooperate, where the information will go, and it is even possible to launch similar developments on the enemy on a false track, or create the appearance of backwardness in this matter. In any case, in order to take advantage of this event, the one who received this rocket must SEVERELY DRINK! And it’s not yet known that it’s cheaper to deal with this rocket or create your own new ZERO!
