To be fair, the MiG’s Ukraine does have were not supposed to be capable of firing storm shadows either.
But that problem got resolved, and they are now firing them well outside the expected operational envelope and scoring solid hits.
- sudosysgen 3y agoNot really. The Storm Shadows are programmed externally, the plane just gives the signal to fire. For the Meteor you would need deep integration into the fire control system, and even into the data links to be able to use it's range as the F-16 radar is not powerful enough. If it was easy to do, MBDA would have done it and made a lot of money that way.
