Ucrânia: Míssil hipersónico russo abatido com sistema americano

Kush says:

Atinge Mach 10 no espaço, já quando entra na atmosfera reduz muito a velocidade, e quem abateu foi o modelo mais recente do patriot o A3, feito para interceptar mísseis balísticos. Slava Ukraine

Art says:

Foi abatido por um rapaz com uma fisga….

Agora são entendidos em mísseis. Santa paciência, estes entendidos em propaganda, misseis,etc.
Quando comentarem, passem a dizer as qualificações para comentarem.

Mísseis podem ser interceptados. Realidade é que é difícil.

Explicações de outros entendidos na internet.
There is some general misunderstanding about speeds and interception. You dont need the speed of Mach 7 to hit the target. For instance you could hit an incoming Iskander msissile with a Tennis ball from 100 meters. To do that, you need the speed of your ball… say 50m/s and you need the trajectory of the Iskander it will hit in those 2 seconds. That being said, you can hit the missile, but you need the exact location and immidiatelly the time of impact when it is only 4600 meters away. Patriots are only twice as slow and that difference still allows an effective umbrella of 50km at least. In practice if you have a trajectory of the Iskander missile 20 seconds before hitting the target, the Patriot will intercept it in the operational range. Any maneuvers that missile pulls off would shift its impact hundreds of meters away, since that short time makes it improbable for ballistic corrections.

US admiral John Hill said that SM-6 Aegis is system can intercept hypersonic threat at therminal (finish) phase. And currently investing in developing SAM missile that can hit hypersonic missile in midcourse hundreds km range.
Conclusion, 99 % people in internet still don’t know how hypersonic weapon works, including most of western journalist who don’t know simple physics and writting stupid articles about UNSTOPABLE)))) hypersonic missiles.
Hypersonic weapon can be easily intercepted on finish phase current SAM systems, much easier than subsonic sea-skimming missile. Don’t need lasers or railguns.
