Aster 15 is in service on the C de G. It has intercepted supersonic high and low level threats. Not the full PAAMS system, an inferior version but still very good.

I didn't mean to liken the Shar and the Mig15, my point was as BEagle said most air cons have limitations and that can be exploited in combat just as the spams did in Korea once they figured out when the Migs aircon system would go into white out. I remember flying on Dan Dare Comets and they would frequently mist up on finals. I hope the Kipperbomber has a better system
