I still can’t believe the AGM114L will totally destory the GRB, considering the SPIKE now is pretty bad(too slow and will lock the death body first) I am sure the AGM114L will do the same thing. and it even needs use radar guide first to avoid teamkill

it’s an AH-64D thats literally bone stock pretty much
my reply was because people were saying “brimstone can identify so the apache can identify” - yes the apache can identify and prioritize targets based on whether they’re a tank, spaa or such. it can’t tell the difference
this is true
You have not seen any source that will tell apache being able to identify anything beyond “spaa” “tank” etc classification because it can’t. the t-72 or abrams identifiers don’t exist in the weapon system, it can’t even display targets as such.
it can’t tell a difference between abrams and t-72
the brimstone operates at 94ghz
the longbow is at max of 40ghz
Hmm interesting I knew the classifications were under 6 types. But figured they would classify friend or foe within those types given the fact it can tell the difference between an 2S6 and a MBT. It also makes me wonder how did they get a multitude of false SA-8 targets if it can’t tell the difference between systems? You mind sharing that source I would like to read more on it.
An/apr48 radar frequency interferometer
The fcr itself can’t tell a difference between the specific sams in a sense however the rfi can recognize a known radiation source
Except I can’t see how the RFI would produce fake targets. One of the major complaints was false SA-8 targets being detected OIF. And will you share your source? I would like to read more on what it has.
It classifies radiation. While i don’t know what the radiation source was that produced fake sa-8 targets, it is very possible that there was something that was radiating in a similar frequency as the sa-8 causing issues. sa-8 operates in j band.
NVM I found a different source with the information I was looking for.
So yes the FRC doesn’t identify friend or foe. That is determined via the IDM. Which gets it’s information about friendly and enemy locations from one of the more infamous systems from US communications history.

Yes the apache can receive the location of friendly units through something like a command center however we don’t have such things in the game and with the fcr not being able to tell a difference between t72 and abrams the problem still stands
Unless if we go into giving this game command centers that somehow transmit constant xray locations of friendly units and then add a fake friendly target marker on the fcr that automatically prevents firing on friendlies i dont think this will work out
It should be a similar if not the same C2 system that the A-10C has it’s information from.
Which isn’t applicable here. The weapon system needs to prevent firing on friendlies, not just show where they are.
Which exists in game that tells you where all your friendlies are.
The big complaint of people about it’s HMD.
Shows them and does not prevent firing on them?
Germany would also line to get the H145M finally :)
Its been 3 years since we saw it

Nice having gaijin forum fuck up the replies
Regardless, the system has to be realistic and it has to prevent the fcr from firing on friendlies
Showing them on a cockpit map isn’t enough.
Why does it need to prevent it from firing on friendlies. It will identify where the friendlies are. IFF doesn’t stop you from locking Friendlies.
Won’t show up on fcr. This feature is same as looking at a map in realistic. Dumb people won’t bother and will just spam these missiles.
Look at the apache right now and youll see how it is. We have it ingame.
I think you are really downplaying how easy it would be to avoid Friendly fire with it. You would have to be lazy with it. Especially if the FCR is modeled correctly to identify categories as it should.
Not that it would matter the real reason Gaijin won’t add it is because how quickly you could wipe a team so we won’t see 114Ls.
This is going to be mostly used by Americans remember 😜
I get TKed by the F15s all the time in SB
