(1/3) One of the greatest weaknesses facing Sahel air forces today is the lack of dedicated airborne ISR and SIGINT/ELINT platforms. While countries such as Mali/Burkina Faso/Niger/Chad operate drones and surveillance aircraft, most rely primarily on EO/IR sensors
Very nice point Sahel (Mali/Niger/Burkina faso) countries lack capable airborne ISR platforms With Burkina faso’s Da-62 ISR and Niger da-42 MPP being almost useless It would be interesting if Africa Corps starts fielding SIGNIT pods for their Su-24’s in mali as a compromise

(2/3) Without the ability to detect, intercept and geolocate communications and electronic emissions, insurgent groups can maneuver, coordinate and disperse with far less risk of detection. In the vast expanses of the Sahel, targets can disappear long before strike assets arrive.

(3/3) Finding the enemy is often harder than striking them. Dedicated airborne ISR assets act as force multipliers, helping build a clearer picture of the battlefield and shortening the sensor-to-shooter chain. In modern warfare, you cannot strike what you cannot find.

Burkina faso’s Da-62 ISR looks very stripped No visible SIGNIT sensors or even under belly GMTI/SAR arrays Only a EO/IR ball Maybe the nose houses one?

La priorité pour nos armées africaines devrait être l'acquisition de véritables capacités ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance et Reconnaissance). À l'exemple des BEECHCRAFT KING AIR !!! Ces aéronefs parfois moqués par certains propagandistes .. ⬇️

فيديو لمنظومة الدفاع الجوي باراك إم إكس التابعة للجيش المغربي في حرب رمضان استخدمت الإمارات أيضا هذه المنظومة التي كانت في الخدمة لديها، لكننا تمكنا من التغلب على منظومة باراك أيضًا. وبالنظر إلى أوجه التعاون التي بدأت مع الجزائر منذ مدة طويلة،1/2 🇩🇿🇲🇦🇮🇷
