Dassault Rafale - Variants, Characteristics, Armament and Performance - Part 2

On top of that IR/PD switch bug is back, so sometimes the lock won’t even let you shoot the missile.

I tested this with the Rafale and was able to shoot in IR mode, are you sure?

Part of the issue with the rafale will be how “AESA” works in game, where it updates the target every 0.04 seconds (0.022 for russian ESA apparently, for some reason.). What will happen is when the missile is launched, the “update” will begin to update the (faster approaching) missile, causing it to entirely lose the jet until the radar scans back over it when it should have just created another track when the velocity disparity got too high.

Basically, your radar thinks what it’s tracking is that same jet.

Yep, noticed this on the Su30 and 29SMT just this morning, it just keeps switching like it did back when EFT/Rafale released.

Edit: If you meant on Rafale only, no I haven’t tested, but the bug is now occurring again for the others.

Yes. Looks like it’s deserving it’s own bug report then. Is one done ? If not, I’ll probably do one later next week

Since EFT and SU30SM were able to shoot through IRST only until very recently but not the rafale, it looks like there’s a somewhat different code between the rafale and other planes. Maybe by « fixing » the EFT and SU30 bug they broke radar->IRST, but the rafale using a different code was left alone

That’s what I was thinking, they might have just gone back to the old code for those jets, bugging them again.

Usual spaghetti code ig.

Yeah thjs change happed recently having the same issue on the Typhoon it is back to how it was before

What seemed to allow the Eurofighter to fire in IR mode before was something to do with GMTI mode that it got same with the Su-30 which is why the Rafale didn’t do it

So it seems they just reverted the whole fire in IR when it makes you switch to it

I can no longer fire AMRAAMs at targets while in GMTI. The ability to fire ARH in GMTI and IR track may somehow be connected lol.

The image attached opened my eyes. That is truly a new gold standard of bug reports.

Truly WT relevant.

I mean, it got accepted, so there must be logic in this madness.

Probably my favourite one, I hope that in the future they add a Croatian or Hellenic one, those are the best imo.

I mean the sources are relevant and primary so there’s that.

Still, the image hits the wrong way
