Adding IRIS-T Missile for Sweden

The purpose of this message was just to prove how stupid WT forums can be at moments because if IRIS-T is added for germany it’ll obviously be added to sweden why voting yes to one and no to the other.

IRIS-T, ASRAAM, and AIM-9X are 3 of the best IR missiles in western airforces ever.

There isnt a system vital to modern IR missiles that isnt on them. So yeah they have IRCCM lol

it was a post made as a joke that’s the reason of why lol

I would be for it if they added AIM 9x & r 73m. But honestly there’s only a few aircraft in game that carried them, those being on the same planes that have fox 3’s. So who knows how useful in the current meta they would be.

iris t for most op nation in game?

iris t is also used by Germany and I think Italy.

yeah. but i don’t think sweden need it.

Definitely not since gaijin gave them their fake aim 9m

nobody needs it in general just that its funny somebody actually feels like sweden its needing them

I argue MICA IR is superior to AIM-9X, it’s got a number of advantages to the sidewinder.

Irrelevant of the IIR fox 2 olympics, I assure you if these weapons are added people will look back fondly on early Fox 3 gameplay with fondness when going within visual range is a guaranteed death to a missile completely immune to flares (well, French smart flares might fare a bit better than others, but gaijin won’t model that.)

It’ll be safer to throw Fox 3 missiles at each other from extreme distance. Rushing the middle of the map will be death, no argument. Even HEL DIRCM will have trouble actually defeating IIR missiles like IRIS-T, ASRAAM and MICA IR. AIM-9X early block could at least be defeated by abusing the AIM-9M seeker it had at first.

Tbh it’s a German missile if someone gonna get it first it should be German not Sweden

Meanwhile UK and Italy got Gripen C before Sweden and don’t need to research 2 gripen

I feel like even a child could see it was a bait post but i guess its fine if we look at it at face value because we dont like that nation cause we’re children.

/s though most of you cant seem to tell whats a joke/sarcasm or not

why would any make a purposeless satirical post though unless its to mock another post ofc if someone is brave or petty enough

Actually if gaijin finally decides to add multi spectral flares that would also counter it but those will probably come with earlier IIR missiles

it cant still counter it, as i said it can change from IR to electroptical if it has the need to, rn we dont even know what counters it effectively that isnt an active weapon, has a lot of systems against countermeasures either by messing with its navigation systems via high radio frequencies or anything dosent work cuz of the external cover to protect it against that

You do know what multi spectral flares are right? They can obscure even EOP

Because people do make those posts. Gale Cleveland comes to mind for clear and easy bait posts.

Its easy to make bait posts that rile up the community and for the poster its easy to just sit back and watch.

yeah but this dosent mean they counter them completely they basically overwhelm the sensors to confuse the missile, IRIS-T’s IIR seeker allows it to create a detailed image of the target, and can filter the flares due to the advanced signal processing unit it has, being capable of filtering a target based on shape, size, and movement patterns

who the heck is gale cleveland now lol? but now you say it that’s true by that mean then he is a troll
