yeah same happens with the KD-88 for china, both the IR and TV variants
The bit that left me unsure was it also impacts spice 1000 for some reason. Doesn’t impact PGM 500s, which you’d have expected it to have similar issues to spice 1000 given PGM 1000 has issues. Just very peculiar.
leftover copy paste code if i had to guess
i dont know tho because i dont have anything with the spice 1000

The radar + TGP with SPICE250 is bugged, you lock the spice then the cross hair flicked randomly to the POI (changed by the Radar)
This bug has been on-going for months and months now without any acknowledge/fixing.
This is unrelated to radar. Radar issue is a distinctly different fault.
Which brochure is this because i can’t find anything to do with even top speed
And for reference in game at mach1 SL launch already at 25km its faster to impact and impacts at twice the speed
The “double speed double range” Orbital ATK one
And what does that even mean?
So I have seen the Alpha Jets are getting a HEDP round for their DEFA cannons, any chance the UK could get them for some of the ADEN cannons do you guys think? I am thinking specifically the Hawk trainers to help bump their tank busting capability.
AFAIK both cannons can use the same ammunition, and its not like the basic Hawks have a CCIP to guide it like the Alpha Jet does.
it doesnt get much clearer
everything else about the missile’s design points towards it being faster than legacy AARGM or HARM as well
i mean it could
is it double the average speed or double the max speed
but the range is pretty clear
when they just say “speed” its almost always top end unless specified otherwise.
the bomb rack thing is extremely clear too yet they denied double rack AARGM-ER
That is completely your imagination. It has no meaning
ah yes the words “double speed” in nice big letters on the missile fact sheet mean absolutely nothing.
The missile being a total propulsion and airframe overhaul, an upgrade in every way concerning speed and range, that means nothing too right?
I’m sure you also see no issue with it being slower than the missile it is a complete upgrade of.
If you can find a time when they use “speed” by itself to describe some average speed or terminal speed for a modern US weapon then maybe it isn’t much faster than base HARM
Yes it does? There is no information about it is.
There is 50 different things it can mean:
- top speed
- average speed
- time to target at X range
- hit speed at X range
Its literally not, I’ve shown literally few posts up above 25km (SL mach1 launch) its already better time to target and twice the hit speed

You are just adding things before “speed” to suit what you think. Speed is how fast it goes, simple as
Terminal speed makes no sense to list
they dont specify “top speed” here, everyone knows that speed listed by itself refers to that

This looks like it would be hilariously evil for air to air…
Possibly, though I just want to be able to do funi things with the Hawk and to help it stand out vs the generic fighter-bomber types in that BR zone for the UK.
I see Hawk T.1s no longer get a centreline bomb, is that correct or gaijin just doing gaijin things?
Feels very much like its got a really limited loadout and limited CAS capacity for GRB.
Technically correct: the same as it missing outer pylons. The centreline hardpoint was only used to carry the gunpod, and the T.1A’s weapon selection console has a gun switch and 2 weapon pylon switches (port and stbd) to support this weapon layout.
Selector console is in the upper left of the cockpit, above the radio
The T.1As can be configured for 5 pylons, but in the RAF they weren’t
