i mean technically not the best russia has, that would be the R74 which of itself is further development of the R73
Yeah but even so giving them the best ARH missile CAS missile and IR missile is a little insane, and throw SPAA in there for that matter.

fair point
Well, how else are they going to implement a Dual band Pseudo-imaging (Rosette scan) seeker with image segmentation features?
Reactive FoV reduction isn’t the only method it has access to segment the image and reject flares.
You do get that the POST seeker has separate channels for each detector and has other features that accomplish Flare detection and countermeasure, it’s not solely the delta emissivity of detected emissions that triggers countermeasure response.
Especially for the later reprogrammable variants.

oh ok
R73M is defenietly a cool concept as a middle step before R74 or something, but i think this update isnt the one for it
Too early for that
oh ok i got u good point
oh ok
You for real think R-77-1 is going to outperform the amraam
Even the most gimped of dual-band implementation would be higher effort than what we have now, and FAR less simplified to the point of annoyingly overperforming.
I get it… Though that isn’t what’s reflected in-game. Any entity in-game that’s an IR countermeasure is simply ignored and immediately trips the seeker’s shutoff function.
To some degree the (rightful) implementation of the Optical Contrast mode for the Stinger will go some way to reducing it’s performance.

But as usual Gaijin have sat on the report for going on 8 months now
Well to some degree that is more an issue of the way IR signatures are modeled, and the use of a fairly abstracted Generic countermeasure implementation that only takes caliber (volume of active components) into account and doesn’t care for material or mechanism.
What exactly are you looking for?
One issue with the Stinger (and other reprogrammable systems) is that since it’s reprogrammable there are probably, many different threat response configurations that have been deployed in one way or another. And short of actually managing to decompile live code there really isn’t any way to tell with certainty since it’s no longer held to waiting for a new variant for the responses to novel threats to be implemented.

Hence why changes are needed, especially to countermeasure emissions across multiple spectrums (much like how radar and RWR interaction is purely indicative of radar bands and the signals emitted).
I’m looking for something other than “this entity has the name flare3, as it files into the band rejection list of 0.1-6 we will entirely ignore anything that the seeker can possibly see and make it impossible for the missile to lock on to ANYTHING.”

I love the russian airframes and am proudly a russian air “main,” that being said the game isnt ready for the r73m as of yet, maybe later this year or sometime next year. But the player base is still learning how to evade the regular r73 lol
