The Super 530F has only half of the lock-on range it should. Should be 25km as opposed to 12.5km. Maximum flight range should go from 18km to 36km.


The lock-on all-aspect range in the game for the Super 530F as of right now is 12.5km when it should be 25km. Maximum lock range for the missile should be increased from 15 to 36km. 

 

This source states that the total range for the missile is "36km (22mi) max., depending on altitude".

It also states, "The Super 530 missile provides improved aerodynamics, propulsion and electronics over the R530. This results in greater range, speed and altitude capability. It can successfully intercept with a 25,000' separation between target and interceptor."

  • Smin1080p changed the title to [FEEDBACK] The Super 530F has only half of the lock-on range it should. Should be 25km as opposed to 12.5km. Maximum lock range should also go from 15 to 36km.

Correction: What should happen is maximum lock range should be increased from 12.5km to 25km while maximum flight range should be increased from 18km to 35km.

Here is the relevant portion of the page.

You can see here that Forecast International's Report shows that the maximum flight range for the Super 530F is listed as 35km. That is in line with the report from the other secondary source stating 36km. Sources stating 25km range are referencing maximum lock on ranges as opposed to kinetic range. Should be 25km lock on range with a maximum range of 35-36km.
