If so, then SEAD ought to be a worthwhile investment.
What are the lead times on (a) a SAM battery, and (b) a SAM operator?
- H8crilA 3y agoToo long on (a) - but there are workarounds that require creativity. See "FrankenSAM". Also, interceptors! Ammunition is something that always runs out either quicker or much quicker or much much quicker than anticipated when shit hits the fan. Because of that I do think we should have a lot more NASAMS constructed, packed up in storage and waiting for the next crisis, as there it's hard to run out of the AMRAAM ammo.
