Sorry to disappoint…
The Sidewinder is a heat seeking air-to-air missile, not a radar tracking air-to-ground. I think this is an old fake.
…I also like reading the Darwin Awards - please don’t tell me that some of these are also made up for a bit of commedy???:w00t::P(Have read enough of Tom Clancy’s work to appreciate the technical specification and intended purpose of a sidewinder btw…)
spoil sports…still sounds good…and funny…lots of holes in the technical review too and sidewinders were developed as air to ground for a short while…just a software upgrade…but ho hum
excellent.
distinct lack of humour on LB at times
