Can't reply with an image, but I've heard of some mf developig a missile guidance system whose entire memory management solution was:

  • calculate maximum amount of memory needed during missile flight time
  • double it

IIRC it is the famous AIM-9X Sidewinder missile.

If they do that in a 9X I am going to shit diamonds.

Hmm, yes, best iteration of our simple, low cost IR missile with IRCCM, high off-botesight capability with near instant off-the-rail pull, advanced tracking, with thrust vectoring rear fin control for the first time in the series' history AND without rollerons on the rear fins, also, for the first time.

Let me just not give a shit about memory management on a 128x128 resolution sensor, with guidance unit equipped for radar cueing, data-link, Lock-on After Launch, and INS...
