any time you employ a weapon system it's only a matter of time before it falls into enemy hands and even if it didn't, they'd still eventually learn how to mitigate its impact. having a physical copy removes some of the trial and error. given that storm shadows are the only long range weapon system that ukraine has, being able to mitigate their threat is of particular interest to russia

RDM posted:Aircraft from non-lovely military industrial complexes use inertial navigation. It is unfavorable that they have a test article to try to improve their radars, though, even if that's just a procedural update handed out to operators. But yeah we're not going to be seeing storm shadows fall out of the sky, or Russian clones

If NATO cared about Russia getting their hands on the Storm Shadows, they wouldn't be sending them to be used.

This is probably the reason why these vehicles specifically are there -- they are ancient, but they shoot a type of ammo that they do have stockpiled, and aren't actually shooting that much.

Storm Shadows have been on sale since the mid 90’s, there’s no way Russia doesn’t have an exemplar in a warehouse somewhere.

I can't believe Russia won't gain at least some insight that improves their own stuff down the line. We won't see stuff that looks like a copy because Russia is plenty capable of building their own platforms (grifting aside). It'll be the material science/guidance/broach warhead stuff they'll pick up useful bits from. For copies, I think it'd more likely that down the line Russia (via Iran?) rolls something out that looks suspiciously like the workings of an NLAW.

I just watched RFK Jr. on Lex Fridman. Holy. Did you know that Ukrainian platoons are surrendering to go fight for Russia? Ukraine has lost 350,000 men, Russia has lost 60-70k. Russian soldiers are completely dedicated to the motherland. There is no way Ukraine can win. Why did we keep provoking Putin? Whyyyyyyyyy

Whyyyyyyyyy I found Lex dubious when John Carmack, FPS granddaddy turned hardline divorced dad dork, was on his show, and even moreso when he 'sparred' with Elmo and attested to Elron Muskard's spryness, but this really cements him as a turbo contrarian rear end in a top hat.
