Can’t forget AESA seeker
Is that confirmed?
From primary sources no, secondary sources did state that Meteor MLU would use a derivative of MICA NG EM seeker and that is confirmed to be AESA by MBDA.

Interesting stuff. A (very) long ways away from any possible implementation of that here, though. I think we’d probably cap it at just the ‘base’ Meteor for simplicity sake lol.
Moving on, it’d be interesting to see if this “50% increase in performance over the AIM-120C-5” the AIM-120D apparently is capable of is reflected in-game. I’m sure it will, or at least surpass the current performance of the AIM-120C-5 by a decent margin. The fact things like RAAF F/A-18F gets 12 of those (and maybe USA’s E variant? iirc someone confirmed it; some other unknown and new US jet will receive it as well) will be annoying lol.
Huh, I interpreted this picture as the NEZ around the firing plane and not the target plane…
Yes because they will nuke the missile to the ground
The ELVO Kentaurus was an armoured infantry fighting vehicle made by Greece but sadly it never went into service because of economical issues. I recommend you checking out the wiki about it
I’m sorry, but if the argument is always “some missile is significantly more advanced than that other missile”, then what of R-27ER/T? That missile is significantly more advanced than AIM-7M/P, and if you try to claim they are not… lol and lmao even (significantly faster, longer range, more G-pull, larger explosive mass). Besides that, there is no respective missile to R-27ET currently in game, non.
then name a compareable missile to it IRL
ASRAAM, using CAMM data in Statshark, it outperforms 27ET in multiple scenarions (speed cap removed)
and how is a missile that is ~25 years newer and has way better IRCCM compareable?
the ASRAAM is litterally using different seeker tech
by that logic there is also already a counterpart for the r-27er and that would be the AMRAAM

fair, i skipped the comparable part
Point is there isn’t comparable missile to R-27ET, so why is it in the game and why is “there isn’t comparable missile to this missile” even an argument here?
@Smin1080p_WT first of all hello and i was wondering will we get a fusion or a display of both the radar and the irst ? or is it not planned/being considered ? also do you like what is gonna be added this year and if yes why ? will we get more QOL for naval only or for every gamemode ? and do we have any news of infantry ? anyways have a good day and thank you if you read that and took your time to respond.

so just becasue there isnt anything compareable to a system it shouldnt be added
so the LOSAT shouldnt be ingame either or the VT1-2
lets give everyone just the exact same equiment
lets scrap unique equipment and lets give everyone just F-16’s with aim9l’s
I love this dance with you. So when I point out there are clearly some missiles in-game without counterpart and are more advanced than other, you ask me to name comparable missile irl which has nothing to do with my subject.
Then you argue with someone else how ASRAAM using CAMM would not be comparable because its more advanced (one could argue R-27ER was incomparably advanced fox-1 before AIM-7P variant came catching up to it slightly, and R-27ET is more advanced than any other long range IRCCM missile in game, because there is non other btw). And now you say I’m basically telling everyone to have same missiles in a post where I originally don’t even reply to you, nor do I at any point say all should be same.
Again, why is “there needs to be comparable missile “X” in-game/irl so that some other missile “Y” gets to be added” an argument from WT community manager when that is clearly not the case is my point which seems to go over your head and wasn’t a question originally asked from you.
this is a sign from above for me to start pilot training. I’ve been holding it off. Thank you.

The comparison of R-27ER vs AIM-7M/P is nowhere near the same as AIM-120D vs Meteor / MICA NG.
These missiles are significantly more advanced in every single aspect and respect, by a far larger margin.

As a war thunder esport player, I have never seen such a gap in missile performance. The simple fact the r27er is still the META missile in tournaments 4 years after its introduction is a testament to how overpowered the missile was/is.
I highly doubt there will be such a margin between these future missiles.
