Probably won’t be is what I wanted to say 😅
Dont we have the ± 60 value?
Isn’t it for the EM only ?
I’ll have to look again actually
No, we dont know EM at all.
It’s in the Modern IR thread?
But when you compare the 9M to the R-73, PL-8B, or even Magic 2 the gap is about the same to the AIM-9X (30G vs 40G vs 50G)
That is largely based off secondary sources that probably wouldn’t be reportable. It’s great for a general comparison, but I’d not necessarily base what they’ll be like when added on that
Perhaps, but just because r73 and magic II is better in a dogfight than Aim-9M doesn’t mean that now the US can be better in dogfight with aim9x.
Also the only issue with Aim-9Ms that truly affects the current balance is their ahistorical lock ranges. With that fix, they’d be fine. I do consider them balanced though, just they have different strengths and weaknesses
Except the US (and nations with only the 9M) only have 30G IR missiles and have to use AIM-120As/Bs for dogfighting due to them having more pull, even though the MICA and R-77/-1 pull harder.
Yeah, again though. That’s just where you have to play the aircraft right.
Typhoon I stick at range as best I can rather than being dragged into a dogfight and then when they can be added. They can give everyone gen 5 IRs rather than just giving the US aim-9X b1
There’s a MICA IR seeker datasheet floating around online somewhere which confirms its gimbal limits are ±60°.
ASRAAM & AIM-9X are ±90°.
Taco bell’s revenge
cool. German 3rd rank scout when?😋
Please revert, change, or fix Naval Arcade. Thank you.
I’m curious to see if these new modern SPAAs will be the test bed for the more modern missiles. At least to me that makes sense before giving them over to top tier aircraft. The SLAMRAAM uses 120s and 9Xs (there’s even a more modern-ish variant that tested AMRAAM-ERs) and we know the other revealed SPAA used the IRIS-Ts.
These missile only SPAA are always meh to play. Just remember how dull gameplay is with Ozelot or Strela. Brrrr.
Probably a huge truck with IRIS T SLM launcher which ofc can’t be even used as last ditch weapon vs. ground. Its the most boring gameplay and on most of these small maps you can’t even cover it up. You get shot in no time. The Iris launcher will be very high up, sticking out on every map … players easily spot it, laser range it, and lol shot you.
The Chinese one has a 30 mm rotary cannon at least.
Always funnier than to get bombed the moment you spawn in with tank and move two centimetres…
i wonder if it will go BBRRRRRRTTTTTTTT
The Falklands/Malvinas are in demand, but we’ll see what becomes available… According to what Stona writes, it’s Port Stanley-Port San Carlos-Goose Green, but the islands are much larger…
PL-10 and A-Darter very interesting missiles.
