🇮🇳 Indian Navy MiG-29 Received Israeli Rampage Missiles Which Hit Iranian S-300 Site

[Old School]

The Indian Navy has increased the lethality of its MiG-29 combat jets with the integration of Israeli-made Rampage missiles.


As reported by The War Zone, the carrier-based fighter aircraft was seen carrying the precision-guided weapon under its wings.

Another photo on social media showed some Indian Navy personnel examining a Rampage missile in a hangar with MiG-29s jets seen behind.
According to the report, the missile integration reflects an improving military relationship between India and Israel, especially in terms of missile sales.

The weapon provides New Delhi with enhanced defense capability in preparation for potential border conflicts.


India is the first confirmed foreign operator of the Rampage missiles.

[H2]'Designed for Well-Protected Targets'[/H2]
Developed by Elbit Systems, the Rampage is a long-range, air-to-ground weapon compatible with western and eastern fighter jets.

It boasts a fire-and-forget capability to effectively neutralize fixed, time-critical, and well-protected targets such as command posts, air forces bases, and maintenance centers.


It also travels at supersonic speed while ensuring precision and low collateral damage.


Additionally, the Rampage has an anti-jamming capability, using a GPS-assisted inertial navigation system to reach its targets.

According to a description on Israel Aerospace Industries ' website, the weapon supports video transmission and wireless communication in all weather conditions, day or night.

Rampage Missiles inducted by Indian Air Force, Navy; Boost to long-range precision strikes

The Indian Air Force has bolstered its fighter aircraft fleet with the induction of the Rampage long-range supersonic air-to-ground missiles, capable of striking targets up to 250 km away. This missile, known as the High-Speed Low Drag-Mark 2 missile in the Indian Air Force, was utilized...

Now question is How effective Pakistani CM400AKG missile compared to Indian Rampage Missile

Now question is How effective Pakistani CM400AKG missile compared to Indian Rampage Missile

Both are offensive weapons, so they must be compared against each other's air defense systems. Rampage is now battle-tested against S-300, while CM-400AKG is not. Another question is whether CM-400AKG is capable of maneuvering at hypersonic speed. Speed alone is insufficient if the trajectory is fixed and predictable, which becomes an easy target for the Indian S-400. When re-entering the atmosphere, all projectiles travel at MACH 5+ ( hypersonic) speed.

Both are junk bhai. Ijhra-heel used a bunch of these against Iranis last week from stand off range in western Iraq. Sounds like they malfunctioned en route due to heavy Irani jamming. In de end 3 explosive quadcopters launched from within Isfahan got much closer to dat S300 radar vehicle, but even those got swatted quick. What else to say here?

Please answer technical questions in a technical manner. I already answered it above. You can add something if you have. OP did not ask for a customer review.

A great article on the budding Israeli aero ballistic and ALCM product line. The three boosters found in Iraq were missing their warheads, from the looks of it. but considering how small their diameters are, we could assume the warheads would be in 50-100 kg range. There is GPS guidance with back up INS in case of jamming. Nobody has seen the warhead business end whether they have vanes or nozzles for their terminal phase (maneuvering).....its all guess work at this point. The Chinese CM-400 'Carrier Killer', I would rate lower than an Irani Khalij Fars AshM. I have never seen a Chinese mayzile earn its keep. Never in da last 50 odd year history:

Israel Turns Artillery Rocket Into Supersonic 'Rampage' Air-Launched Stand-Off Weapon

The manufacturer says it's a cheaper alternative to other longer-range aerial weapons that will work with almost any jet combat aircraft.

Regarding Iran, keep in mind that Iranians consider the state of Pakistan a red herring between them and India. Iranians wish Pakistan never existed, and so do Indians. Technically, Iran is an Indian ally!! Whatever Iran has is unlikely to benefit Pakistan, ever. Iranian achievement is irrelevant in the Pakistani context, regardless of how much you admire the Iranians. We have built up our Pakistani identity over the last 70 years, and it's not going away. It is the reality we have to learn to live with.

A major question is can Pakistani air defense pick it's launch or it's flight early to have a solution against it?

Do you mean an early warning system? Early warning works best for land-based launches, and India is too close for a reaction time. If launched from Submarines, NO. If launched from an aircraft on the Arab sea or Tajikistan/Afghanistan airspace, NO. It will still be too late.
