Recent press reports say that Ukrainian jets are using American ADM-160 MALD decoys to clear air pathways for European Storm Shadow missiles against Russian targets. Also, reports of Ukrainian Migs shooting down Russian Su-35 Super Flankers with American AMRAAM. We set out a DCS War Game to show this tech all working together. To add a little extra spice, we add in the AGM-88G AARGM-ER missile.

heh… MALD..
Great Video .. I wonder what type of virtual software the militaries have to role play scenarios.
NOW you know how to defeat Kprtanna's intigrated SAM system that has so far defeated everybody
I don't know how accurate it is, but I was reading that the MALDs don't have to be decoys.
Because there is no overengineering like US Military Budget overengineering.
Eurasian times is not credibl, btw. Take whatever they publish with a pinch of salt
According to sources I read, MALD are typically programmed on the ground, but they can be reprogrammed by the pilot in flight up to the time of launch. Once they're off the rail, their programming can no longer be changed.
Fun stuff!
Nice double test scenario – One more version to try –
4 Flights to the north – each of 6 aircraft. Flight 1 – each with 4 AARGM-ER missiles: Flight 2 – each with 8 MALD, Flight 3 – each with 8 Storm Shadow – Flight 4 – CAP Com with AMRAAM for air defence.
Flight 1 would launch first and fly ahead of the the group – just outside the S400 line they would launch the AARGM-ER missiles to the targets to take out the S400 and other radar systems ahead of the interdiction.
Flight 2 would then come in about 2 minutes behind flight 1 and launch the MALDs at the S400 line toward the target – this would ensure that any missiles that managed to be launched would have decoys and likely mitigate the risk to the offensive missiles coming up in Flight 3.
Flight 3 would then approach about 10 minutes behind Flight 1, this would ensure that the AARGM-ER had mitigated the radar threat around the target and the MALDs would be distracting any inflight missile systems or at least occupying any radar still in operation. They would fly inside the S400 line to a range of around 70 miles before launching the Storm Shadows at a height over the sea of around 100ft, ensuring the missiles would remain below the effective height of any radar on the missile batteries due to ground shadow.
Flight 4 – these would advance and take out any aircraft in the area of operations and ensure the air corridor remained free from aerial threat.
So be safe certain of success, I would also have a duplicate flight of Flights 1-3 which would approach from the South, over the main part of the black sea – again the AARGM-ER's would be fired inside the S400 line, with the aircraft "popping up" to sight the radar stations – the flight with MALD's would then complete a decoy launch as in the north. The last of the southern flights with Storm Shadows could then either target the primary if it had not been elliminated, or select a secondary target of opportunity to elliminate that – such as naval units operating in the area or within Sephastopol harbour.
With the addition of the Storm Shadow, AARGM-ER, MALD and AMRAAM – maybe nice to organise another attack on the Kirch bridge – again, split attack from the North and the South to ensure maximum damage.
a mald can mimic almost any American aircraft not jus a b52 the f18 f15 f16 all definitely work aswell
You should see how much better the F-16's are for Ukraine compaired to what they had.
Impressive!
Can MALD be palletized?
I think that the amount of decoys fired is unrealistic.
If exhaustint a SAM site was that easy then they would simply do that, defeating the SAM site by wasting all it's missiles.
In reality these decoys are used to confuse the SAM site.
Their role is to force the S400 to turn on it's tracking radar, making it an easier kill for anti radiation missiles.
Iβm genuinely confused how u could think theyβd use mig29βs instead of su24βsβ¦ for a simulator channel u really seem to know fuck al
How about similar mission against MiG-31 with R-37M CAP and Su-35 QRF. Also maybe the AWACS not seeing all the way to Crimea because they cant fly into Ukraine
No surprise fighting s400 makes you mald, I'm malding watching this!
The target houses the NREs (New Russian Empires) supply of NRFR (Not Real Field Rations) for their troops. π An idea for an "Eastern Bloc" version of the F-15EX….Tu-22M3 with R-37 "Axehead"s and an ASEA radar,or the Tu-22M5 "FuBar". A bit of an off the wall comment, the AGM-88G has a body design similar to my idea of a new design for an AIM-9X replacement, the AIM-272 Sideslip. The body acts as a lateral lifting body to maintain lift as it moves slightly sideways in the airstream.
βIf they weren't drunkβ, lol, Capt, brilliant comment.
These Strom Shadows are flying far too high given the scenario.
The world should donate any business class jets being sent for decommissioning or scrapping to Ukraine – there are several per day globally that reach the end of their life, Bombardiers, Gulfstreams etc. A through-body a-frame mounted to the seat rails could easily be knocked up to carry two or four Storm Shadows – no need to put hours on Ukrainian military jets. You don't need a sophisticated aircraft to launch Storm Shadow or SCALP – only something capable of carrying its heft, power, a launch code (PDA) and to get the missile within a few miles of waypoint 1 roughly pointing in the right direction at sufficient altitude – the missile will do the rest. The Brits don't actually have any "export" model Storm Shadows – so these really have a range of 500+ km – far away from the Russian border to be dropped to hit any part of Ukrainian soil without putting the host aircraft at risk. The talk of export models was probably to placate Russian anger.
Am I the only one who thinks mig 29s with NATO weapons is just sexy.
Links to mods would be cool and all
Can someone help: i got a stormshadow on my mig-29, but I canβt deploy it, as i can see an indicator of it, and can anyone explain how to aim it?
Remember: Patriot system is vulnerable to the exact same tactic
AIM-120 in Ukraine were launched from the ground.
1)Ukraine still not recieve any AIM 120.
2) You cant shoot AIM 120 from Soviet erah fighters Ukraine now has
3) all Ukraine sources says that it was an ambush, made by ground to air complexes, and even manpads was used against Helicopters. ( Bryansk partisans, who knows ;))
4) Fog of war
5) "Eurasian times" is a bunch of attention seeking idiots, which operates on rumors taken from the internet, and speculates on a sensitive topic.
After hearing about the kamikaze MALDs i want to see a simulation of it hitting a T-80 at 600 knots done by one of those balistic simulation channels
How about a simulation about the destruction of the PAC-3 battery?
Ukraine rules
The grim reapers don't use talds? Oh, your playing surprised so you can explain malds. π didn't mean to pull back the curtain Cap
The best decoy would be one that is anti-radiation. So when it gets hit. It scrambles the radar. Self inflicted blindness.
In real world scenarios a mald can mimic up to 16 targets at once. It will cause the launch of a lot of ordnance just for the sake of a decoy. Afterwords loitering aircraft or missiles can make their run. π The russians hate their lives right about now
27:30 That was so close!
Awesome video! Glory to Ukraine!
how do you get buk to hit air missiles? mine only go for planes never missiles
Go after the bridge
how many defensive rounds were left when the Storm Shadows arrived? Was it confusion over decoys (what to shoot) or ran out of ammo?
where can i download this map?
Is anyone else reminded of the opening act of the US Navy in the famous Tom Clancy/Larry Bond novel Red Storm Rising? After having taken Iceland with paratroopers, the pre-war plan for using the GUIK spanning SOSUS cables and Iceland based F-15s to protect the trans-Atlantic resupply convoys is in tatters, NATO scrambles to set up a high-tech version of the WWII battle of the Atlantic. Russian Tu-16 Badgers fire a fleet of retired ASMs acting as drones simulating a Badger attack on on the Nimitz carrier battle group featuring Nimitz, Saratoga, the French carrier Foch, and helicopter carrier Saipan who was transporting a Marine division. The F-14s flew up and expended their AIM-54s on the drones, while Tu-22M Backfires blazed in with newer supersonic ASMs with only the F-8 Crusaders from Foch left to attack the Backfires and the Ticonderoga. Several ASMs made it through, exploding Saipan and its Marine division, sinking Foch, heavily damaging Ticonderoga and Nimitz and lightly damaging Saratoga. Nimitz took a hit next to CIC, killing the Admiral commanding the battle group.
Sill today one of my favourite books.
An idea – refighting the battles depicted in Red Storm Rising with contemporary and current weapons. Battle of the North Atlantic, the "Frisbees of Dreamland" F-19 (written before the F-117 was revealed) raid on bridges and airbases behind Soviet lines on the night before the war began, the first and second battles of Iceland and so on.
where did you get this map from?
