No mention of SEAD UCAV types
edit- In the Israeli air force the SEAD role is also taken by the Harop and Harpy UCAV drones. I think a new section should be created. Irondome (talk) 02:05, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
SEAD by Artillery
editMight be worth mentioning that SEAD is often done by Artillery when within range. The Artillery suppresses the AA sites and marks targets for the aircraft. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.4.190.34 (talk) 22:41, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
So, it is not only the responsibility of aircraft to destroy those air defenses. It is inherently dangerous because those systems are designed to shoot aircraft out of the air. It would be interesting to learn the other alternatives to destroy air defenses. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.160.83.146 (talk) 22:53, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
Needs updating
editThe post-Vietnam period needs updating, particularly with Bosnia, the Gulf War and 2003 Iraq Invasion. The suppression of "enemy" air defenses and the establishment of Coalition air superiority were pivotal in those conflicts. I would add them myself but I don't feel qualified in this area to make any substantial edits. Coinmanj (talk) 05:35, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
Not Enough
editit's too short for SEAD. Immedieately it should upgrading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.92.102.34 (talk) 13:45, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Russo-Ukrainian SEAD
editI have citations for the lack of Russian SEAD. Where is this capability showing up in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict. If there had been any, it would have shown up on 24-25 February 2022, right after the missile strikes on Ukraine.[1][2][3][4] It's been 10 days so far (09:35, 5 March 2022 (UTC)).[5] NATO has not yet declared a No-Fly zone on the grounds that such a declaration would be an act of war[6][7] Russia has still not achieved air superiority.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (The same line of questioning applies to communications interdiction over Ukraine. It's as if the Russian military were using public channels (e.g., open source, land lines).[16][17][18][19][20] But Russia appears to have ceded Information Warfare to Ukraine at present) Russia is ending press freedom to independent news sources in Russia, as purveyors of fake news.[21][22]

Is it OK to add the lack of Russian SEAD to the article.--Ancheta Wis (talk | contribs) 17:21, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
