Can thermonuclear weapons fired from a distance of 500 meters defeat the S-400?!
Let it never be said that the Grim Reapers lack persistence!
lol
Speaking as an old HIMARS guy with some experience on the M270s back in the day.
Shooting down the old cluster rockets isn't spectacularly hard. They are, as mentioned, slow and fat and not all that stealthy. There's a reason MLRS and HIMARS are built around the "shoot and scoot" principle. That is, in an environment where counterbattery is to be expected, they immediately displace after firing to avoid return fire. They're easy to track on radar, they're easy to track visually, and the actual launcher portion of the vehicle is completely unarmored. An MLRS or HIMARS battery will have an extremely wide footprint, with each launcher having several hide points to fall back to, and they're spread out so a lucky shot can't disable the whole battery at once. You could probably track the rockets in flight with WWII vintage radar equipment if you had to, and all it takes is a single well placed round to turn a rocket into expensive but useless fireworks. Their strength is in numbers. Not even the most sophisticated air defense system is going to stop every single rocket, and a single rocket getting through is going to ruin a lot of days and make it that much easier for the next stonk to slip rockets through the screen.
The newer guided rockets are a lot harder to hit. They carry a lot of speed, and they attack from near vertical. Since this isn't a War Thunder forum, I can't get into too much detail about exactly how fast they go, how high they fly, or how long the range is, but I can confidently say that the answer to all three questions is "very." Saturation fire against enemy AA is going to wear it out quickly, especially with skilled crews and a crack fire control team. As an added bonus, they are absolutely terrifying for any planes trying to share the airspace. The chances of a rocket hitting a plane are low, but never nonzero, and at the speeds the guided rockets travel, they're hard to pick up visually. It was always fun to listen for the faint notes of terror over the radio when friendly pilots realized we were shooting. If you absolutely, positively need to gain control of the airspace in a hurry, HIMARS is certainly a viable option.
stonk
Rumor has it, they have a trajectory and velocity very similar to that of a typical Grad rocket, and this is making them very difficult to intercept, at least for the moment, because they are blending in with all the other unguided rockets in the air, being fired by both sides, and the S-300 interceptors, other than the Pantsir, are much too expensive to waste on intercepting an unguided Grad rocket every time one is fired. This may very well be by design. Supposedly, however, the person who mentioned this also claimed the advantage could be temporary, as it may require only a software update to the S-300/S-400 for it to be able to quickly differentiate the HIMARS rockets from the other systems in the air. The S-300s/S-400s have supposedly probably not yet received instructions on what to look for, how to tell it's a HIMARS rocket, and once they has been, the radar should be able to classify the system quickly and accurately. On the other hand, the S-400 radar does have an upper limit to how many targets it can track and classify at once. Seems like it was 100 or so. So if they fire 120 grad rockets when they also fire the two PrSMs at the Kerch bridge... that could still pose a problem, even with a software update... so they say.
@@Gabriel_McMillan No one's been dumb enough to let me play with a Grad, so I have to go by what I read. The arcs are superficially similar though, so that would make a certain amount of sense. That said, GMLRS is much faster than the average Grad and has a higher service ceiling, so telling the two apart wouldn't be all that difficult if you knew what to look for. Catching one, I think, would be a different story. Once they nose over, there really isn't that much time to react and it's a relatively small target.
Have you heard that the himars that the US sent over may have the IFF transponders that communicate with the S-400. Hence why Ukraine getting a full S-400 battery was quite the gift? It could be they are saturating but I haven’t heard about Russia attempting to shoot down the himars. Would make a lot of sense to me that they are still using Soviet era transponders with rudimentary encryption. Idk just food for thought. Also it would be irony on top of irony given the turkey-US f-35/ s-400 debacle
As a former 13P when you don't have an ACA, big sky, little plane.
The Bradley's guns are stabilized so your sights should not be bouncing when you're moving. You would also have thermals so you could use those to spot targets. There are also different types of ammo HE, AP, APDS and an APDS (depleted uranium which will go through a T-72's turret armor), you can also select between 2 types of rounds depending on what you want to load, so you could fire say HE and if you wanted to fire AP you could switch at the press of a button on the gunners station.
I used to be a technician on the MLRS system. LOL
They are called the Gridesquare eraser. Awesome weapon that's gotten so much better since the Gulf War.
(I could tell you why, but then...you know)
On Artillery, including MLRS:
- Artillery targets an area or point target. A point target is a square with a 50m diameter. An MLRS that can "kill a grid" means an MLRS unit can target an area of 1km by 1km and put one piece of shrapnel in every square meter. The area depends on the number of launchers and the type of system. The type of rounds fired, fuse settings, the terrain and the types of cover all dramatically affect the battle damage effect of a fire mission.
- Theoretically, SAMs ought to be able to engage MLRS rockets. You'd overwhelm the system really easy though and they aren't designed for the task. I assume it's just not modelled in the game for those reasons.
- Realistically you'd keep strategic and theatre-level assets out of artillery range (insofar feasible due to operational circumstances) and you switch positions every so often. Stationary systems are dead systems.
- Gun AA-systems (and tube artillery for that matter) can engage direct fire ground targets. I remember our boys training that with both the M109 SpArt as well as the Flakpanzer Gepard. The 2A38M 30mm gun on the Pantsir-S1 is the same gun as on the 2S6M Tunguska, a system designed for front-line Very Short Range Air Defence and is extremely capable of engaging ground targets. It'll also run out of ammunition excessively fast (RoF!) making it a terrifying but very short-lived asset.
- SAMs can't target artillery grenades. Not a chance.
Several SAM systems have demonstrated the ability to reliable hit artillery rounds. Heck, Sea Wulf did 114mm rounds in the late 70s/early 80s. Iron dome was even specified to hit artillery shells.
Just no one is doing that since it has you run out of money real fast shooting missiles at shells.
You are referring to the CEP, in which out of 10 rounds fired, 5 will hit within that certain radius.
@@CombatIneffective Nope, CEP is something completely different. I am referring to the area and single fire unit can effectively engage. For example, a platoon of PzH-2000's can affect an area of 300 x 150 meters. Artillery engages areas, not single targets unless firing guided rounds.
The Grid Killer moniker came from the M26 rocket days, liberal use of sub munitions thing.
that last one with the special forces (with what looked like Gustavs) was ace, that last kill was intense.
If memory serves the S400 batteries has been ineffective in real life...
Yeah, through either poor training, poor manufacturing, or just over exaggeration of capabilities the S400s have been no where near as effective as expected
What is "ineffective"?
And yes, S-400 on service in Turkey, where it was tested with all kind of NATO experts, confirming its advertising performance.
@@morlov4076 Turkey, your ally?
Just propaganda buddy... S400 batteries aren't used in Ukraine... everything is S300. Do you guys have any proof to claim instead of so called "Western medias (aka Copium)" we need proper evidence to prove from the neutral media not (Western Copium Propaganda Medias) things? don't say Source: Trust me bro. @Jan Bjerring. Btw RUSSIA IS GOING TO WIN THIS WAR.
@@morlov4076 agreed
This is such an interesting series of videos, Cap.
I've had the bell notifications on the day I subscribed to you lol
thx
The M270 is tracked on a modified BFV chassis. It carries two pods, allowing it to load up to 12 rockets/missiles, or two ATACMS, instead of the wheeled M142’s (HIMARS) single pod.
Respect you! The only channel I have rung the bell for.
Use the range finder for the 30mm. Lock the target by hitting the enter key. Cap you need to put the RPG-7 guy in a left or right echelon. You could use a line formation, this will keep them out of the back blast area of the weapon.
Is "the alligator" in the game? 14.5mm Ukrainian sniper system?
Wait they modeled backblast?!?! Ok maybe ED isn't so bad.
thx
@@grimreapers You've seen those little pads you put under furniture legs to make them roll around without scratching the floor? Clearly these are issued to all Ukrainian special forces, to attach to their kneepads for missions where they need improved mobility while behind cover...
@@Gabriel_McMillan 23:40, smoothly sliding trrrrouugh the wall lmao
So the SAS has taken up stealth Curling?
Allows them to move more smoothly...
During Desert Shield, I was on KP when the air war started. Part of the air war was also artillery. That night, at midnight, EVERY MLRS in the Army inventory fired at the exact same time. Just about soiled myself that night.
wow
We need some MOAR crazyness like this, I was laughing my ass off. Best start to a Monday morning in ages, boys!
The Bradley ODS Is protected against 30 mm armor piercing. The maximum stated range of the 25 mm canon is 2500 m. We were able to identify targets and use the laser rangefinder to compute the trajectory in order to engage targets further than 2500 m. The M919 depleted uranium round is able to shoot with a flat trajectory much further than the stated range but the HE round is only effective to 2500 m.
8:00 maybe they don't want to shoot cheap stuff with expensive missiles down and are badly trained/led so no good quick response.
So in game, probably just a non-trigger for this kind of ammunition
Love these wargame videos Cap keep it up.
What? You've never heard of the Ukrainian Elitna bryhada samohubtsiv? That's Elite Knee Sliding Suicide Brigade for those of you who don't speak ukrainian. They are a crack regiment with a history dating back to the 13th century. I mean obviously they were a cavalry unit armed with sabres back then, being pulled along behind their specially trained horses using their shields as sleds. They've had to adapt to their more modern weapons since then but they still spend months training recruits in the specialized movement they are world renowned for. It's a military tradition and we all know those can't just be given up just because they make no sense at all.
lols I did not realise how famous they were
@@grimreapers 23:40 , what other unit than them would casually knee-slide and phase through the wall?, coming from the left
Most realistic war presentation ever
Well, this was entertaining I'll give that!
Thanks Cap.✌
Ahhh....what a great time I had watching that guy's, thnx so much for the entertainment and lol's.
Cap a salute to you for testing the HIMARS against the S-400 and the Pantsir!
I'm sorry guys, but this became a stupid video the moment it lacked any long range missiles, because what kind of a S 400 would even be depoloyed in range of grads (Uragan, HIMARS, doesn't matter, it's all practically the same)
Of course the IFVs worked, you remembered to bring the sharpened sticks.
You did it!
hey cap i heard you talking about a worrying trend in video views, i hope it gets better soon, because your videos are awesome. after holidays i will be watching all i have missed
Yes it's problematic.
Ryan Macbeth did a video on why it can’t shoot any c-ram projectiles he also notes that a simple software update could allow them to shoot the rockets down
Its not that simple, changing a program is incredibly time consuming once you have the data to input. So far, they don't!
Cap: Fires 1 shot stinger at friendly C-130, wonders why he can't kill a friendly later.
lol
The fucking kneesliding hahahagaga. ”They’re advancing forwards. …very weirdly…”
if i had to guess, the game sees the rockets from the MLRS as a bullet rather than a missile and the s400 isnt programmed to shoot down bullets
S400 is not created to shoot down MLRS anyway, you got other systems for that.
Lmao the last assault had me rolling XD
Guys honestly a piece of advice re: low viewing numbers. Upload less. People are way less likely to click on a new upload and be excited to watch a new video if there's multiple ones coming out every day. Love your work I hope things improve.
thx
Brandon Lee or Serj Tankian ?
Great video.
15:35 Pantsir took the missile out with its guns... You can actually see the tracers both straight from the direction of the antenna and from the right hand side and the explosion...
thx
Thanks!
Thanks Charles!
That spread is why the MLRS is a grid square killer
Does the rocket exhaust help the aa radar maybe track it? You can do this with mission editor targeting, but this more real looking for sure! Combined Arms looks really awesome here! Can you imagine V. B. S. if it comes to civilians with a wild map. Arma reforger for now..
13:50 no, you haven't got armor.
Like is adviseable against enemy fire
Arty is only so accurrate at range due to mech limitations of the gun but with 155mm ICM rounds close is good enough.
They aren’t actually reported to be in country but are likely there. The S300/S400 sees them as a Grad Rocket. Their software isn’t programmed to take out grad rockets to cost inefficient. The S400 would waste millions of dollars of rocket to take out $10,000 grad.
The M270 can take input of 10 digit grid coordinates and it will place firing solutions.
I love this tomfoolery :D
Apparently the Russians are terrified of HIMARS and are shooting anything that moves up there. I'd imagine crew competency is a factor.
Does the MLRS have no radar cross-section programmed in DCS?
(Ultimate stealth rocket)
Personally Cap I'd have sent in the Abrams. If only to get some kind of payback for the hours of pain the S400's have put everyone through. That's you and us viewers.
lol yes
Love your channel, soon getting a gaming pc and abandoning consoles. Can’t wait to invest thousands of dollars into driving/flying sim gear
you get a decent joystick with throttle and pedals for less then a PS5. And you actually get it.
Of course, the sky is the limit if you want to...
Knee Army need to be in all the sim videos from now on.
gota love the floaty spec ops guys
I didn't see any adjustment for altitude - is the target at the same altitude as the launch vehicles?
hehe i liked and commented .. mwa algorithm :P
Iron Dome was specifically designed, programmed, and built to intercept rockets. I'm assuming the S400 can definitely see the M270 rockets however they are just filtering them out as "noise." You'd be surprised at what all radar can see. If you didn't filter out a bunch of the nonsense then you radar screen would be just completely filled up. The S400 basically just needs a software update.
It’s a great day!
S-400 missiles cost millions. They couldn't afford to use them on HIMARS rockets if they wanted to. Even their shorter range missiles in these systems, are irreplaceable with the current microchip import bans.
thx
@@grimreapersThat said, there are multiple reports of Russia using S-300 to strike land targets. Which sounds insane from that perspective.
The last commando assault brings back crouched Oddjob memories.
More like this please?!
A bit weird, but fun!
Oerlikon uses 35mm shells for its autocannon and Pantsir uses 30mm shells from the 2A38M autocannon. Pretty similar though.
My guess would be the S400 calculates the trajectory and won't waste a very expensive missile if their is not a threat of being hit by the inbound missile.
Infantry wins in the end, omg that was funny!!! :D
how could it possibly shoot ground vehicles, i mean they would be shooting their own ground vehicles?!
Russia is apparently having issues shooting down HIMARS with S400 in real life. Including losing an S400 to HIMARS.
Also what people are saying by "they are using S400 to attack ground targets" is true, you are just misunderstanding. They are using them to attack incoming forces. They are using them as cheaper, less accurate cruise missiles to attack stationary targets.
Does the game count the unguided rockets as artillery shells?
Jake Broe has a channel on RUclips where he describes why himars rockets dont get shot down... I wouldn't do it justice to summarize here but apparently the s300s and s400s are failing to intercept himars.
Nope they have intercept some Himars over Donetsk and kherson
@@AbuBakr-gm6bf this guy disputes those claims as russian propaganda has not featured any footage of wreckage of a shotdown himars rocket (they would show off if they could). Not saying they won't just that no concrete evidence of interception at this point.
Bullshit channels obviously, because both systems are not made to shoot down MLRS rockets.
thx
For what it's worth:
"Coriolis force
In physics, the Coriolis force is an inertial or fictitious force that acts on objects in motion within a frame of reference that rotates with respect to an inertial frame. In a reference frame with clockwise rotation, the force acts to the left of the motion of the object." - Wikipedia
Also the curvature of the earth. Does the MLRS aiming method take these into account?
what
@@KjekkasAron :D
I have no idea sorry
whole War game with special forces felt like playing with toy soldiers made with cheap moulded plastics
I was a Bradley gunner in Iraq, man those are so much fun to shoot
The main reason of not shooting rockets is because the missiles in s400 are expensive and limited in number hence taking cheap rockets is wastage. Rather they reserve these for more capable targets and it's followed in reality too. Now, Israel made Iron dome keeping in mind the cheap targets it has to take down rather complex systems. Now, s400 is 100% capable of finding and taking out these targets but it's on the operater to do so or not, which as per me they will not do because they're taught to identify difference between targets.
"It immediately hasn't worked" ~Super Cap
Quick prediction before continuing past mission statement.. HIMARS and MLRS will absolutely destroy that ginormous target... I mean bridge, I mean well-guarded bridge.🥳
The 30mm autocannon on the Pantsir-S1M is the same gun that's on the 2K22 Tunguska
Where can I get the S400 mod? Or is it in DCS now? I haven't gone one mission creator in a while.
I think I put the link in the previous S-400 vid.
Do you guys think that a torpedo could take out the pilings of the Crimean Bridge?
I would love to be able to simulate this.
Not sure if MLRS munitions have hitbox in DCS. As I recall mavericks and jsows didn't get engaged by airdefences either a while ago in DCS either.
You should try the Fajr-5
Funny how Ukraine just nailed a podlet-k1 radar with HiMARS just before this Video goes public...
oof
Could it be that the twenty mile range on the MLRS puts the rockets too close for the S400 to lock and fire in game?
Yet the Pantsie shot the TOW........
I''ve seen it shoot stuff well under 5 miles before.
@@grimreapers Huh, weird. Might be a bug, might be a feature. I guess we'll know in thirty years once this is declassified 🤣
Some projectiles are not modeled in game to be shot at by SAMs. In reality s300/350/400 can engage any of the ballistic missiles present in dcs but probably wouldn't have to since they are covered by layered cheaper systems like Tor or Pantsir.
Many SAM systems back from '50/'60s can be utilized for ground attack but that's usually some last resort desperate/luck hit scenario due to accuracy and cost. Doubt Russians would use expensive s300/s400 missiles when they have warehouses full of cruise/ballistic and MLRS missiles for probably next 20 years of fighting.
Hahaha yea those unguided need computers to factor in everything. But it nice to see all the different types of munitions that go to the rocket motors my company makes and I inspect for flaws. Except for the last one left to right we stop at ATACMS
Question how do make this simulation Battle??
Ryan McBeth does a good job explaining why Russia can't shoot these rockets down (how the US adapted to shoot rockets down in Iraq) and what these rockets would look like to a radar operator. Go check it out, great video as always Cap!
Side note/rant
Russia using the S300/S400 to shoot at ground targets isn't some feat of engineering, American AEGIS with the SM-2 & SM-6 can shoot at land based targets and other ships as well. The Brits with their Aster 15's did a test hitting a ship target which means their Aster 30's can probably do the same. Russia isn't doing anything spectacular with their S400s by hitting land targets lol.
if anything its a waste. Those SAMs are not cheap
So from what I understand the reason the s400 is unable to shoot GMLRS is because the RCS that the s400 would see from the rocket is a cross between an airframe and a tbm so it cant get a proper solution on the rocket. Of course thats a very condensed version of the explanation but if youre more interested in the subject you should check out this vid. ruclips.net/video/ceskPbDtTzY/видео.html
S-400 probably can't do much against a prosumer drone with a brick of C4.
Lol that's why ukraine don't have Tb2 any more cause. If S400 and Pantsir
Yaa it wasn't designed to do that, last time someone used a drone for something like this were the taliban.Its an unfair comparison.
And a nuke rocket can't do much against a guy with a rifle. Why? Because it's not made to fight guys with rifles. You got a hell lot of other people and systems around it to do that.
maybe those missles arent on the AI threat list for the AA defense system?
How would an Iowa class battleship do against the S-490?
Unguided rocket may have no telemetry system for the counter system to get a bead on?
This month alone there are clips of russians destroying s300s with a bullet or two.
Where can I download the mod with S-400 and Pantsir?
Bushmaster mounted in middle of Quad 50cal.
Why s400 can't shoot down rockets? Because it wasn't desing for that, the same with the Patriot. Patriot systems fail intercepting much less sophisticate rockets in Israel and that lead to the development of the Iron Dome. This types of Sam's are not desing for this type of mission, but yes they can intercept misiles like Skuds ATACAMS Iskander and some versions ICBM
S-400 Can't shoot down MGM-140 ATACAMS
@@Anarchy_420 yes it can men. It is a TBM 🤣🤣🤣
Don't say ukraine because the himars they have don't have the ATACAMS
@@ser43_OLDC lol and how do you kno that for fact you don't😆 Either way HIMARS still destroyed an S-400 site
@@ser43_OLDC Those long range missiles fired from MLRS systems can all be shot down unless: larger number fired via multiple systems/units at once, then some will go through due to numbers, and that's why grad rockets go through: large numbers can be fired from only one system/unit at once..
@@Anarchy_420 they can all be shot down, it's not about wunderwaffe tech, it's about the numbers: systems that can fire 6 and 12 grad missiles, can fire only 1 and 2 long range (300km) missiles, and in a way those are equivalent of Ru Iskander (launcher with 1 and 2 missiles, 500km range), and Ua Tockha U (launcher 1 and 2 missiles, range 120-200km).
PS I used to maintain M 113's and operate them. also M109 's 10ton and 5t0n MLVW's jeeps etc.😇
Lessons learned: Panzer can’t kill troop on their knees! 😂
9:00 Not realistic. It's just not modelled/programmed in-game. In reality, the S-300/400 would hold off, but something like the Pantsir, as part of an IADS, would be all over them like a rash. I reckon. Mind you, a really big salvo might be able to defeat such defenses.
Looks like you were completely wrong because in real life, the S-400 haven’t done the job.
Even in DCS takes random rounds to the head, not just in ARMA.
yup annoying...
Cap good shooting you had no mercy on the ground....😅🤣 good vid I was unsubscribe didn't know how long sure miss the ground units that you all played.. Good job Brandon Lee your an ace..
Those special forces are using the knee pads the long board guys use with wheels on the knee and elbow pads.
Cap was the only KIA amid 50 troops! LOL
As usual.
loft a glsdb 6pack to 80K feet with a weather balloon-triple the range. small target comes in supersonic.
Hey man can u make a video about the IFF Override in the F16
Is that a new'ish thing?
Otherwise it could be in their turtorial series
@@patricktho6546 I think nobody has ever done a video about it , even wags from Eagle dynamic. It’s located in the DED page right after you depress the IFF button on the ICP
@@afterburner3584 unfortunately I am a step ahead of buying my first module, and that will the the f18 or the Eurofighter (when it releases obviously, but since it is a big commitment and hugely dependend on the multiplayer/group, I am very cautious)
@@patricktho6546 I’m an Air Force college student and willing to go for an f16 pilot training, so I extremely need to understand and have a whole F16 manual experience in order to succeed.
@@afterburner3584 cool.
But I think lile Cap said in on of the last videos, that you get bad habits, so probably don't go to deep and don't see is as direct training. Just a bit of familirization of things.
I understand the desire, but I think, that it is unmatchable, even if you would have the original manual and teaching aids etc
Well, at the moment, it looks like Ukraine won't be receiving those 300km (187 mile) missiles from the US.
I’ve been wondering why Ukraine don’t attack russian railroad behind enemy lines, since most Ukrainians speak and understan russian?
You mean the Ukrainians which are glad that Russia finally stepped in and stopped the coup regime mass murder? THose should attack the railroads?
If you mean the coup regime army: they can't shoot that far and those railroads will be protected.
See: Ukarine mainly manages to randomyl hit something, because Ukraine is big and you can't cover everything with air defense. But a rail road? No problem.
