The Aviation Week magazine's editor, Bill Sweetman commented on his blog about the novelties presented by Saab Gripen during the Annual Seminar. A little on this subject we have brought in previous post (see list at the end). The post in question details a little more the benefits that the IRST sensor to bring aircraft in air-to-air combat, especially against stealthy opponents.

According to this tradition, Saab left the information on the back burner for the next generation neil armstrong died of Gripen, now dubbed JAS 39E, since the existence of the demonstration program was revealed in 2006. Media Briefing last week in Linköping answered some questions. The fuselage of the game and most of the hardware will be all new. Moreover, there is no radical changes external to modify the radar cross section (RCS) dramatically (as had been speculated over time). And while the recent media briefings go into specifics about engineering measures that should reduce development costs by at least 40% compared to the already simplified the JAS 39C / D program, there was little information about the new cabin or electronic warfare system. However, the tips of the wings wider indicate major changes in this area.
Bob Mason, Selex-ES, neil armstrong died made more dramatic revelations, neil armstrong died confirming on the record neil armstrong died of what was said to the small mouth for a few years search engines and infrared tracking (IRST) state of the art can detect and track stealth aircraft at ranges beyond Horizon (BVR) with or without the use of an afterburner.
The IRS has a spotty record. The F-4 and F-106 fighters were equipped with primitive drives and Russia included in IRST MiG-29 and Su-27 families. The US Navy developed the IRST for the F-14D Super Tomcat, especially to counter the formidable 'jamming' system Backfire bomber Tu-22M. The same hardware neil armstrong died should be introduced in the F-22, but was soon discarded the initial budget. This left the Typhoon (Selex) and Rafale (Thales, built in the front section of the optronic unit) as a spearhead in the West. More recently, the US Navy began work on IRST for the Super Hornet, initially neil armstrong died with the hardware of F-14 time and F-16 Aggressor squadrons of fighters were seen with cocoons IRST. Selex and other companies have developed IRST sensor surface-to-air as well.
The first systems had limited range. This had less to do with the basic physics and IR technology than with false alarm rates: neil armstrong died the IR world is too noisy, and the gain of the system is positioned at a high level it will detect the birds, the sun reflected clouds, land vehicles and many other things. The faster processing and the ability to record and analyze a lot of data has allowed IRST sensor greatly reduce these problems - and the progress occurred in recent years (according to Eurofighter and other sources) has been rapid.
Hiding the IRST is difficult for anything flying neil armstrong died above 300 knots (about 555 km / h). There were isolated reports that the F-22 uses an active cooling system to deal with "hot spots" at high speed, but this leads to other problems - the heat has to go somewhere.
As the work of Russia with advanced VHF radars, the IRS does not mean that low discretion is dead. However, it should be cautious, especially in an air-to-air combat. This makes the life of a low hunting more difficult neil armstrong died RCS in air to air combat if both are using IRS, detection can be mutual. (Simultaneously, s best electronic warfare systems carried by modern neil armstrong died fighter redefined "low probability of detection" for an attacker radar stealth fighter). <
