Now about using nano-gas to locate stealth plane and stealth projectile such as glide bomb , a brother sometime ago said that if the body of stealth plane is damaged by shrapnel then it looses it's stealth ability ( smooth surface ) . Also if you make this nano gas have ability to stick to surfaces ( by electro-static charge ) or by actually being sticky ! Then plane or glide bomb that travel through this becomes visible as well as having chance of being visible on doppler radar ! Dispersion at altitude above target will ensure the glide bomb has to travel through this ! 

if stealth was fully detectable by Nebo the russian and chinese would never built Stealth fighters ... here is my 2 cents ...

You are right about JDAM  ( the present version ) being metal . But if I remember right there are other types that are low RCS .
Or at least it is possible to make them so that they are . Also detecting by IR can be overcome very easy . For both missile and for glide bomb . Simply cool them in bomb bay  before launch or allow for gas cooling during flight . Then again we end up with cold stone coming to Earth ! Even HARM can be IR stealth after burn out and body cooling . So alternative optic devices may help working in the UV band .

Now with this Micro-gas , the dispersal can be cheap ( by crop duster plane ) or simple rocket . But the idea came to me that instead of a horizontal blanket , a vertical blanket will work best . The slightly heavier than air particles drop to earth creating a perfect wall . This effect is the same as the cannyon effect  that destroys GPS reception for glide bomb . 

I just remember something I said before about position of RADAR against HARM incoming missile . Now if the radar of AAA is positioned in a way so that the RADAR cover each other both physically and data link as for example two RADAR dish point to a place above target ( not away from target ) then HARM only detect or is more attracted to RADAR furthest away that is...... directly pointing at it . It will fly over the other RADAR . This one can then track and gun hit it  before HARM reach other target . Better still is that info from first RADAR is passed on to second RADAR ..........( this one can be swiched off to make sure no radiation leak)  and second RADAR then use stored info and turn on . Or the first RADAR can be a cheap system only capable of sending signal but no other software / hardware and simply attract HARM . The second RADAR can do proper targetting and have gun .I am quite sure Iran already does know about this as I myself learn it here . But just quick reminder .

Also if micro-gas or chaff is used to create GPS blind spot or RADAR blind spot , then obviously pointing the RADAR at the wall will not work . The RADAR should be placed and point upward parralel to wall  or away from wall toward and above target .

Yes I saw that section about countermeasures . I think it to be physical countermeasure with electronic effects ? There are a lot of concepts here to notice and learn from . But HARM is not the only method used against RADAR . The attack starts with ECM and jamming from planes and drones hundreds of kilometers away . This is what US did in Iraq . The ECM planes are out of reach of all SAM or the ECM drones are disposable . So Iran has to use planes and intercept this ECM platform way out at sea may be with special developed ECCM pod hunting missiles (modified air to air HARM ). So electronic and information war will start first against most enemy . The winner will be the side with greatest resources . In all this video clips the weapons depend on various RADAR . If this is destroyed by ECM or made weak then attack will start .

The Americans have shown that they will use this chance to launch Cruise missiles from very long range . A range out of reach of  all weapons . All AA system that are static and rely on RADAR will be taken out . As they can not direct any weapons ..... The radar sites can also be hit by various weapons launched from planes at closer and closer ranges as the SAM sites are eventually destroyed . It is at this stage that tactics will change . Iran instead of using the RADIO band for war may start to jam it and use the OPTIC band . This is where assymetric tactic comes in .

All I am saying is that plans and equipment should exist for this almost certain eventuality . Dispersing chaff will not only blind the enemy but everyone including own forces ( if they still use the RADAR based system) . So detecting by optic in various forms is the only way left . It is not without reason that most creatures have eyes that see in visual wave band . Although some exist that see in IR and UV . The reason is that this waveband is most capable of long range definition and is robust . In this lets say horrible electronic environment that Iran will have to create , there may be still room for a limited amount of radar .But this radar is most probably short range and can work ( or take advantage of ) in this environment .

Yes. Electro Optical (EO) guidence is a must have for most short range SAMs (30-50 km range).

Yes. Passive IR and UV radiation scanners are important research in todays military. Igla type MANPADs use IR camera for guidence.
