Missile with Mach 2.5 speed, weighing 200 pounds, having 35 kilometer range, with ~~radar and~~ infra-red homing. Can be ground launched. Very good news on transferring these.
I can’t wait to see a pickup or VTT with these latched on (until we see them on Ukraine F16s that is.)
People roasted me for saying that it would be faster for Ukraine to get older aircraft that shoot sparrows and sidewinders for missile/drone interception while waiting for F16s.
