Length?

"has a maximum body diameter of 48 centimetres (19 in) and a wingspan of 3 metres (120 in)."

Does it not have a length? Or is this a glaring omission indicative of the editorial quality of an anyone's-an-editor encyclopaedia substitute? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.175.56.45 (talk)

No, it was intentionally left out to draw sarcastic drive-by comments. Glad we succeeded. - BilCat (talk) 07:48, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Egypt's Scalp sale

A source from defense-news[1] date August 1, 2018 states that the Scalp sale to Egypt was blocked by the US through ITAR, and another source from defense-world[2] date July 9, 2018 states that France received the OK from the US to export the missile to Egypt... but the source from defense-news (posted 1 month after the defense-world article) states "we cannot get the U.S. to lift its opposition to the sale of Scalp missiles" .... so, what's going on? did the US agree to the sale or not?Wasteland1 (talk) 21:07, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Polish integration work on Ukrainian SU-24

Just as a note, although I found substantiation of this report on BulgarianMilitary.com, a generally trustworthy source, I am growing more skeptical about it. The information may be a lift from a rumor posted a few days earlier on a well known Telegram Russian milblogger channel. There are further repetitions from non citable sources eg twitter and other blog sites, as well as untrustworthy sites known to publish Russian disinformation (avia-pro.net). A ukraine friendly blogger on reddit cited a report on what appears to be a fake site here, and the post was taken down as citing a non reliable source. It was elsewhere claimed that the report is only a rumor, (for example on on this blog). As of this time, there is no official statement (either denying or affirming) or other reliable sources on this item so if there is nothing corroborating from a reliable source in the next week, I will remove what I added on the Ukraine report.J JMesserly (talk) 19:33, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think technically it is possible provided the SCALP is programmed on the ground and the carrier is just ferrying it to the launch point. There may be some additional spoofing to make the carrier think it is a different weapon. I doubt it would be more difficult than HARM integration, no signal lock needs to be confirmed as in HARM. If it requires any sort of translation hardware it is likely well within the capabilities of a lot of FPGAs.--Kitchen Knife (talk) 15:18, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

reference/source for Mikoyan MiG 29 as launch platform?

reference/source for Mikoyan MiG 29 as launch platform? Or anyone can add anything without reference? 83.99.198.116 (talk) 22:20, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's too heavy for the max pylon weight of Ukraines early MiG-29s. It's most likely either Su-27 or more likely Su-24. Not sure who added MiG-29 or where they got that info from. 159.196.12.87 (talk) 22:34, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Image caption

"Wreckage of a Storm Shadow shot by Russian forces over Ukraine" should probably be "shot *down* by" 94.207.79.254 (talk) 15:15, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It should probably be "crash landed over Ukraine", as there are no independent reports that this has been shot down. --11:47, 24 September 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A466:2A7B:1:5149:5A61:83DA:BA38 (talk)
