cesarferrolho Posted Wednesday at 03:24 PM Posted Wednesday at 03:24 PM Should that be possible? An STT lock that is maintained long after the target has landed?
Despayre Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM Posted Wednesday at 03:42 PM I wouldn't think so. How long is "long"? I'm not updating this anymore. It's safe to assume I have all the stuff, and the stuff for the stuff too.
scommander2 Posted Wednesday at 03:49 PM Posted Wednesday at 03:49 PM (edited) It is a good question. My case is that a moving plane is on the field, and I am able to "lock" it with the sidewinder tone since it is an infrared seeker within the certain range. I need to try for the plan has landed case.

Yes, it is possible. You can lock onto completely still ships out on the water as well. Edited Wednesday at 05:50 PM by Ivandrov

How long is "long"? at least 3 minutes after it landed, i still had a lock. I Launched one Aim-54 before and another after he landed, both failed to hit Edited Wednesday at 06:09 PM by cesarferrolho
RustBelt Posted yesterday at 12:23 AM Posted yesterday at 12:23 AM It should not work with PD-STT definitely. if it’s reflective enough, maybe with the right background in P-STT, but ground clutter should really make it unlikely. You will certainly miss with a Phoenix in P-STT.

I assume Jester did not go to P-STT, i got the lock at around 60nm or so, the target was an il-78 tanker, the lock remained steady and accurate several minutes after it landed.

An IL-78 you can definitely maintain lock on, it's a huge and highly reflective target conpared to ground clutter and there is no MLC filter when STT'ed. So, it not moving is not an issue.
