Storm Shadow/Scalp EG WIP. The missile is in shape as well as the engine. The TRI-60 have its compressors, turbines and the burner. All needed for RCS Estimates. ImageImageImage
One thing that puzzling me is whether the nose cap which protects the IR seeker will fully open like this, revealing the entire seeker body. Image
Or whether it only exploses the IR window. Image
I lent to 2nd hypothesis tho. But we'll see if i can find more information.
As usual i am open to commission :3 or maybe a support so i can bring better computing power for better and higher resolution RCS estimates. and overall better renders.

Support can be directed to me here X3.

Prediction time. This time i will visit the Anglo-French Storm Shadow/Scalp-EG. The estimates are finished. The model is as depicted below : ImageImageImage
As i previously said. The model have fully formed air intake system and TRI-60 engine modeled. The infra red seeker window is exposed. As it should be in flight prior to entering target area. ImageImage
The modeling is done in 35 Frequencies, covering VHF down to 34 GHz. Should be representative for wide range of air defense radars and missiles. The following depicts the interaction of the missile with the frequencies. In 3D form

I really wish more people use the Radar coverage tool courtesy of @CambridgePixel

As i got a feeling people think Air defense and Radar coverage is a perfect circle which simply not true. Here is an example of real world coverage of a Pantsyr guarding Moscow Image
The colors indicate the target altitude. the legend is in lower right corner of the screen. The green color shows coverage of a target moving at altitude of 30 meters. Not a perfect circle right ?
The other thing is the drone's RCS. This would give more constraint especially if they're flying low, and slow like a bird and there are many birds down there one needs to pick out. Like smol commercial drone can reach Sub 1 sqm already

One Iranian ingenuity that catch my attention. The Fateh-110 Ballistic missile. It looks simple, practical and appears to be good enough Tactical ballistic missile. Image
let's cut to the chase, the estimates are done in 13 frequencies from VHF down to X-band, i would love doing 35 frequencies as usual but i just dont want to wait 8 hours for it to complete. The missile is usual PEC as it's a metalic airframe.
In case someone interested with separate vids. This one depicts the half sphere contour plot

So there was that bit tweets about fresh grad malding over someone with experience got accepted into a company, despite that he was graduated from reputable university.
Experience and more importantly professional certification matters. Which kinda make me thinking :x or maye worried as i have none.
Like i'm kinda feel pretty screwed. I graduated in Biology as major. But there was no real professional certification for environmental science here, no funds for postgraduate.

So.. i look again at the 9M318 missile for Belarus's Buk-MB3K. Especially after watching video by Belarus TV OTN.. Then rewatching vid of Russian Buk M2's. Notice the position of the wings and overall shape of the missile.
The overall size however appears to be similar 5.5 m in length and total diameter of 40 cm. 9M318 tho is noticeably have shorter G&C (Guidance and Control) section and longer rocket motor compared to 9M317. The following are my rough approximate of the differences.
The shorter G&C Section is probably due to use of more modern 9B-1103M-350 Active radar homing Seeker, instead of Semi-Active 9E420 seeker. Other differences is the radar fuze is integrated to warhead section in 9M318 while 9M317 appears to have the fuze in the G&C section.
