>Solves your detecting problem regarding long range kamikaze drones

Will these things ever make a comeback?

it was too hard to bomb with wwii equipment, that is no longer the case

>drone flies in, uses a cutting torch on key girders

>>Solves your detecting problem regarding long range kamikaze drones
It doesn't though at all you fucking moron. A core issue with OTH radar (putting aside all the backscatter challenges, disruption from any geomagnetic storm events etc) is that the resolution is shit. Bearing accuracy is at best like 1-3 miles and range resolution something like 12-25 miles. You can use it for very early warning for big bombers or naval ships, which was a useful capability in the 1960s, but it's worthless for any sort of weapon system let alone tiny ground hugging drones. There is a reason everyone serious switched to airborne radar, which also gets you over the ground horizon while also being useful. Satellites and underwater mic networks give everything needed to track surface navies worldwide.

That's putting aside the vulnerability of course, but it's not even worth bothering with anyway. Those huge blimp radars the US use are way more useful, or else just have AWACS like normal.

No because they were meant to detect ionization trails from missile launches and didn't work

Ukies already droned one of those, retardo kun

What makes you think something like Duga would detect a 6ft wingspan drone flying just above treetops?

usual thirdie logic that big means it's better

Can't you just render the thing useless with a bunch of aluminium leaflets?

Didn't this thing fuck up entire shortwave bands within thousands of kilometers with its weird pulsing noise?

we still have them in hawaii and thats all im allowed to say about that
remember that nuke alert almost a decade ago, yeah oops

Good enough to determine the position kf stealth planes and launch IR missiles

>>63821790 (OP)
They could just put 5 500$ devices to fry the drones around the bases and that would have been that.
The fact that there isn't any jamming or em frying equipment around bases with billions of dollars of planes shows yes

Russians are indeed that fucking stupid
Who actually does this.
Like that's 150 million dollar plane. Theres 10 of them in a small area. Go get a fucking bunch of industrial microwaves and open the door and put them up going 24/7. Blanket an entire area around the bases that fries small electronics
Wow that was hard and 2500$ dollars. Yes I know you need to slightly alter the microwaves I'm not saying how Russians might figure it out
Imagine having a bank vault with 1.5 billion with a small fence around it and nothing else

>>63825278
Yeah, but dacha...

>>63825221
Are you having a fucking stroke my guy?

I'm more expecting FLYING radar (using balloons) than those things making a comeback.

>>63821790 (OP)
?

>>63821801
Not bomb proof, but pretty stout and positive ventilation, for reasons. A very sophisticated system.

>>63825278
>em frying equipment
You need tens to hundreds of watts to burn a recieve side of a radio. Power halves for every distance doubled. To get 200 meters of radio frying range the transmitter would need to be, lets take 50 watts as the kill level.

10 kilowatt transmitters are not cheap or small.

>>63825221
Absolutely not, you schizo retard.

Didn’t it take a year for Russia to tune it properly so people 500 miles around would stop hearing voices in the bath tub?

>>63825221
>blindfiring IR missiles
No, dumbass.

>>63821807
Or just some well-placed baggies of thermite.

Australia still has a network of them, the US has a pacific one and a gulf of murica one, I assume the chinese have one as well

>>63821953
Correct, these big OTH arrays aren’t useful anymore.

>>63835660
>Brain Scorcher
That's clearly the Duga array, worm food.

>How to piss off every HAM radio operator in the world, and how to get them to send a return signal and shut them down

OTH radars are extremely vulnerable to jamming because of the low angular resolution, and can only really detect fuckhuge targets anyway. They're irrelevant in the age of F-35s. Maybe they have a limited use for tracking ships for nosattelites thirdies
>>63835440
That's not OTH

>>63824760
yeah
