AESA, Datalink, and Sensor Fusion

Which means exactly diddly squat. A Group is just for organizing personnel. It has basically nothing to do with aircraft.

Yes… And? That has nothing to do with what I’m saying. Outfitting an entire squadron is far more service than “one off’s” or many of the literal single digit production number aircraft ingame.

F-14A, F-4E, both F-16ADFs, both A-10s, A-7K.
I can keep going if you’d like, doesn’t really seem necessary.

Whats more telling is you completely ignoring it being a ‘specific aircraft as displayed ingame’ when shown that ‘specific airframe’ doesn’t even lineup with their supposed date.

Again, for balance reasons, it shouldn’t have the 63v2 right now. But saying it can’t is patently false.

Except there is very much information known for the differences of aim9x block 1 and block 2, python 4 and python 5. I can’t say the same for asraam block 1 and 6

IMO we will probably see the first F-15 with an AESA when we get to adding the F-15E.

You forgot the R-37M.
If Russia starts production of KS-172 missiles, there is a chance they will be added to the game

Incorrect. The F15C MSIP II was outfitted with an AESA RADAR. That is part of the upgrade program. Then in 2006 the program started installing the V3 version of RADARs to them, so an upgraded AESA. This is just wrong. In game it was given the wrong RADAR because well they are bias against NATO vehicles actually being strong.

This is where you are wrong, we have tons of data on its RCS. That’s the downfall of bringing them to air shows. If you don’t think when that thing would travel to an air show that we didn’t have full teams of people dissecting it you are living in a bubble. It has an RCS of 1.0. The F22A has an RCS of less than 0.0001. The F18 has an RCS of 1.0… The SU-57 is as stealthy as an F18. That is the risk you run of showing off your plane at an airshow, especially one close enough to our RADARs for us to get a full 360 image of it.

An even funnier message)
The F-22A actually has an RCS of 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

This has zero relevance… None… Mass produced isn’t a standard for this game. This wouldn’t be a discussion if the aircraft was soviet. All soviet vehicles in game are given the absolute top tier model of treatment.

The number of vehicles outfitted has absolutely zero relevance in this game, and is a stupid cop out at best. soviets are not held to this standard. The Yak 141 is a prime example of this. If one single aircraft got the upgrade, then the soviet tech tree would be at that level of build. It is always this way. You still have soviet vehicles that haven’t been produced yet being added. You always try to make this disingenuous argument. “Oh but they only built one squadron of them” meanwhile the 2S38 sits in the soviet tree having still not been delivered 2 years later than it was supposed to be…

KS-172 appears to be permanentally shut down for now. R-37M appears to be a downgraded export missile with less range than R-37, so not sure if it has any place.

There is however R-33 and R-33S before the R-37, so I’ll amend the post to include those.

Dude. The R-37M is not an export missile.
R-37M - 300KM
R-37 - 200KM
M - modified

The R-37 is an improved R-33.

The list is only for air to air missiles but yes, we’re also missing a bunch of air to ground ordnances. Maybe even more than air to air.

AIM-174 ia already included. AIM-120C-7 to my understanding does not offer increased range over C-5 like AIM-120C-8 and D does. Differences might be similar as AIM-120A vs AIM-120B.

Yes.

Any sources?

Bro, are you looking from Wikipedia?

I hope you’re not looking at Wikipedia, I’m looking at Russian sources.

RVV-BD - export version of the R-37M missile. Remember the R-77 missile, which was renamed RVV-AE - the export name of the missile. But for some reason in WT the export missiles are no different from the original version xD
Ракета Р-37М: что она собой представляет и в чем ее уникальность - Российская газета (rg.ru)

The 1985 upgrade program…? It was a part of it?
Was the F-15’s first AESA not given 14 years later?

I was thinking that.

When was the first AESA radar installed vs when was the F-15C MSIP II in service/upgrade program started?
