what part of English you don’t understand?
what I’ve said is

and how the hell F-15E can’t use AIM-120C-5

you are implying theyll get it this update, which this thread is about, without any basis other than “it came to me in a dream”, its like saying yeah the Ef is gonna get the irist cause it could use it irl

I’d be surprised if only one nations Hornets got C-5 AMRAAMs

I didn’t say they will get it
I said they should get it as well.

from a balancing perspective, no they shouldnt

you really dont understand what he’s saying.
He is implying that such technology is capable of being fitted on the planes and the way gaijin adds missiles, (like the 9M), it goes to everything that could use it

Not really per the stats that exist in game already. It gets a bit more Delta V from the motor but everything else is largely the same.

Currently it also has worse seeker stats than the other, already equalized ARHes in game so I’d wager that will change on dev.

DeltaV does not mean much other than the maximum speed differential

It has around 40km more range

untrue just looking at the AAM3 (F4EJ kai), R77-1 (Mig29SMT, SU34, idk about the 27sm), Aim120 (F16A MLU for china)

ofc there are exceptions, it still doesnt make my statement completely untrue

IRL, yes.

This is war thunder however and as already stated it’s total delta V is only a minor improvement and said delta V for similar missiles is very important to their performance. Its also a overall heavier missile to boot, the change will be far less than the likes of the R-77 vs R-77-1 who got a substantial boost to it’s delta V.

deltaV as i said is irrelevant

i am talking about actual in game performance

Delta V is not irrelevant to missile performance, it is the measure of the entire efficiency and performance of the missile’s motor in comparison to it’s weight and diameter.

That is it’s actual in game performance pertaining to it’s motor.

DeltaV is the maximum speed differential to the launch platform

No its not. Please go and educate yourself.

Heck I’ll get you started, here is the formula to calculate the delta V of the 120A.

So wrong yet so confident…
