A3SM Mast version (Submarine launched Mistral SAM) 

Mistral has very short range that makes surfacing a big risk.. CAMM would be better since the missile is slim and compact with longer range ... Just need to add 4 compact AESA plates onto sub. sub air defense would support air defense umbrella in the offshore operations. Also AESA radar could help detecting enemy warships. Like underwater frigate.

Yes. By one way or another the sub will be more exposed. I also prefer the ship-based AA, as it have a far larger range than the sub sensors might have. The biggest defence and weapon of a submarine is it's silence. And I confused myself. The torpedo version uses the MICA and the Mast version the Mistral

I think the "torpedo" version is more interesting. The Submarine don't need to be more exposed to launch the mistral.

when the us run anti submarine warfare {ASW) operations, they use closer to 10-15 helos, plus this sub just gave away its position by going to periscope depth, a much better defense would be to stay deep below the thermocline and run

Very amazing. 👍👍

launching missiles above the waterline should tend to eliminate underwater sound signature and associated sensor pickup, maybe not 100% but probably a chunk better than the alternative. so if the sub can launch at the enemy from a couple of miles away, before being detected that would clear the unfriendly helicopters from the area without creating the underwater sound from an underwater missile launch. Also, the missiles designed to fit the launcher may be extremely fast, short range units which is not necessarily what the sub(s) will be carrying for their primary mission. that has upside as well in the sense the sub can carry a good number of them while maintaining storage capacity for its primary mission. at the end of the day, Navy will not be keen on firing cruise missiles at anti-submarine helicopters because it's overkill from several perspectives, and on a submarine there is literally no room for inefficient solutions. worth looking into, probably.

Right so we are to believe these ASW Helicopters radar would simply miss this huge mast rising from the surface, after the first Helicopter was struck by the time the sub had fixed on the second Helicopter there would be a torpedo heading for that sub.

Gostei do armamento. Muito criativo e inovador...

Ese sistema tenia muy alta " indiscrecion " ... es mucho mejor el lanzador vertical de misiles AA Mica como el que propone SAAB-KOKUMS en el Submarino A-26 Blekinge !!

Form me if the submarine mistral Can upgrade to fire a surface to air missile on under water That will be a super upgrade To disguise a mistral as a rocket torpedo Before he can fire on surface with a missile 9 meters above surface like VLS

many sub specialists here

The MICA one is more practical as far as I see.

But you are crazy! expose a submarine in that way, at few meters under the water! So from a probable engagement at throughout the coast knows the exact location! ....The movie in fact deceiving, because there comes a second helicopter that send down the sonar ...... in fact his radar would have hooked the mast of the submarine and has already launched torpedoes ..... But,it is an advertising film ... ..

Too bad, energy based weaponry are still in it's fancy states.. Would be a much better solution.. Still submarines biggest advantage is her stealthiness.. So developing propulsion system that would remain silent all the while propelling the said sub at flank speed will be the other option..

а вертолет типо торпеду не будет сбрасывать? :) бред

also could have nice applications for carrier convoy escort duty, anti-ship, anti-aircraft, and anti-missile. definitely don't give 'em to Tehran or Boris. keep 'em for USA and NATO. these look like they could be nice, for some applications.

there are better active defance systems used in submarine worldwide. a mast for active defance when seconds matter is the worst option possible.

Did just hear the lunar landing at 1:25? Lol wtf

last ditch defense,

טיל. גרעני

ฮอ มันจะให้ยิงง่ายๆขนาดนั้นเลยเหรอหว่ะ.....

keep them for USA, NATO, Japan, S. Korea. that's it. these are too nice.
