Clue on RAF crash missile-( six heatseeking SA-18 missiles purchased from Iran...) The SA-18 GROUSE (Igla 9K38) is an improved variant in the the SA-7 and SA-14 series of manportable SAMs. I wonder how many actually hit that plane, and how they know they were SA 18s. Military accident investigators believe the Special Forces plane was hit when at least six heatseeking SA-18 missiles were fired at it. www.freerepublic.com /focus/f-news/1337645/posts   (1180 words)

Boston.com / News / Nation / Washington / Higher-tech missiles feared in Iraqi hands In particular, officials are concerned that insurgents may have newer versions of two deadly Russian missiles, the SA-16 Gimlet and the SA-18 Grouse, both portable surface-to-air missiles similar to the US military's Stinger, officials and military analysts said. But if pilots fly low to avoid missiles such as the SA models, which are designed to strike aircraft at higher altitudes, they become more vulnerable to lower-tech rocket-propelled grenades, which have been responsible for some of the helicopter losses. The leading theory among some specialists is that Russia may have sold the new technology to other nations, and that Hussein obtained it on the international black market. www.boston.com /news/nation/washington/articles/2004/03/18/higher_tech_missiles_feared_in_iraqi_hands?mode=PF   (901 words)

(1:8:*) Partin pointed out that while the truck bomb that damaged the World Trade Center was in an enclosed space, thereby creating a much higher destructive force than a bomb out in the open, it did not destroy the support column next to it.

ISN Security Watch - Laser pointers create hazard for civilian pilots A year earlier, an Israeli airplane departing from Mombasa airport, Kenya, narrowly escaped disaster when two SA-18 Igla (Grouse) missiles were fired at it, but missed. In November 2003, an Airbus A-300 chartered by the DHL cargo company was forced to make an emergency landing at Baghdad airport after being hit by a surface-to-air missile.

Missile Theory Is Still Aloft -- Newsday.com The source said that U.S. and foreign missile systems - such as the Russian SA-14 Gremlin, SA-16 Gimlet or SA-18 Grouse - are likely available on the international arms black market after being supplied in the 1970s and 1980s to countries such as Syria or Iraq.

Russia, Arms Exports During 2001 the Kolomna Machine-Building Design Bureau also earned about 30-40m dollars in the framework of a 2000 deal for the delivery of several hundred Igla portable surface-to-air missiles (SA-18 Grouse), he said. Pyadushkin said that in the next few years Russian foreign currency proceeds from arms trade may be crippled by the US policy of lifting restrictions on arms deliveries to several countries, including India and Yugoslavia, which are traditional importers of Russian military goods. The Reutov-based Machine-Building Research and Production Association is believed to have made 30-40m dollars in 2001 under the BrahMos joint project with India to develop supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles, Pyadushkin said. www.cdi.org /russia/johnson/6021-5.CFM   (413 words)
