LOL den i think they painted A-10 Warthog and Apache
AH-64 D longbow with the WRONG Color LOL!!
The A-10s and Apaches were designed to fly and fight at very low
altitude, nap of the earth condition. Painting it white or light
greys thus make no great difference. However painting it green have
a camoflage effect as the aircraft manoveurs just above or among
trees *if possible. The green outfit also camoflage the aircraft
against the bottom tress from predator enemy aircraft from
above.
At some point of time, they actually painted the A-10 grey, i
believe thats for temperate or snow field, but they do sent them
for forestry excercise and if im not wrong also to the Gulf
war.
Fly high?? LOL the UAV is Defenceless duck flying in the whole
sky..
The point is, UAVs are hard to detect by radar and your Mark1
eyeball. A UAV instructor once told me that it is impossible to
spot our SearcherMK2 using visual sighting when it flies at a
height of 4000m. Depending on the range, but the general statement
is, the radar signature of the Searcher is that of a crane. Thus
try to figure out how hard it is to detect it, spot it, shoot
it.
even pakistani air force ( we know how good it is
)
Searcher II managed to down a India's UAV
Although they are various ways to down a UAV, it is still
extremely hard. In every conflict, even armed figthers get shot
down, so lets not talk about UAV. And btw, the most effective
method against UAV imho is using damm primitive methods like what
the serbs actually do, so you dun need a technologically advanced
force to do it. Im not at all surprise the pakistani can shoot it
down, neither i am surprise that the Indian's do make good
surveillence with the UAV.
