Zitat:Qatar unveils Skynex air defencehttps://www.janes.com/defence-news/weapo...ir-defence
The Qatar Emiri Air Defence Forces (QEADF) now has the Rheinmetall Skynex short-range air-defence system, the Qatari Ministry of Defence (MoD) revealed on 13 October when it released a video showing components associated with the system during an exercise. These included eight 35 mm Revolver Gun Mk3s and a single X-TAR3D target acquisition and tracking radar.
While these components can be used as part of Skyguard or Skyshield systems, the Qatari MoD said the exercise was called ‘Shield 6 (Skynex)' and resulted in an unspecified number of rotary and fixed-wing targets being shot down in record time at the Al-Qalayel range. [...] The Skymaster battle management system is the core component and can be linked via a tactical communications network to up to three X-TAR3D radars and 12 guns.
