Talk:ALARM

message: In this article the author states that the only users of the ALARM anti radiation missile are the Royal Air Force. However, I have seen pictures on a website about the Royal Saudi Air Force, of an RSAF Tornado carrying an ALARM missile. The website is www.gibstuff.net/aircraft/RSAF. It looks as if the missile is only a drill round, but it demonstrates the capability of RSAF Tornados to carry this weapon. Plus if you look carefully you will see that the pylon has the ALARM specific adaptor rail as well. I know it is only a minor point, and I don't want to ruffle anyones feathers, but I felt it was worth making 82.47.69.156 19:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  ALARM: the RAF are not the only users. 

message: Unless I have misread the referenced article there is no evidence that this is the case. If there is no dissent, I'l remove this statement. Rob cowie 11:39, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "No longer in production".

message: The two bullet points starting with the "cheap and cheerful" remark seem to put undue weight on a single opinion. For such a short article, it does not seem right to dedicate this much space to an opinion degrading a competitor. Maybe there more attention should be given to adding facts than to removing negative opinions and adding positive opinions. I intend to remove those two bullet points if there is no strong reason to keep them. ALARM may very well be better than HARM, but I'm unconvinced by a magazine article quoting a single user. --Dual Freq 22:47, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: HARM

message: In the article it says this, "During the 1999 'Allied Force' offensive in Kosovo, Luftwaffe Tornado ECR, USAF Wild Weasel F-16s and US Navy EA-6B Prowlers attempted to destroy a Serbian air defence radar with HARMs. After almost 100 attempts, the RAF was called in and the radar was destroyed with a single ALARM, thanks to its loiter capability.[9]". Making almost 100 attempts to destroy one radar and failing, seems a bit far fetched to me, even if there is a source given. And the name of the source doesn't sound too reliable. Is there any more evidence that this happened? -OOPSIE- (talk) 14:19, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: "Extraodinary claims require extraodinary evidence" is not a Wikipedia policy as far as I am aware! I added the original statement, however that was referenced to an Air Forces Monthly article, I'm not sure what happened to that reference/where the new one came from. I'll look it up.
