The plane recognizes the same planes as the Su-30
In fact all aircraft with NCTR recognize the same aircraft at the moment

6199

Can they all show the fighter model？

6200

As of last update today, most modern radars got precise NCTR, showing model.

6201

The models of the aircraft indicated are those marked in the list above.

6202

Thank you for the information, in addition to the above radars, do other radars not have NCTR function, such as F15

6203

F-15 has NCTR

6204

F-15, Eurofighter, Su-30, Su-34, Kfir Blk60 and grippen

6205

Yay, gripen gets something that makes it slightly less redundant.

I’m back

6207

Nice to meet you, back.

I’m Fluffy.

6208

Is missile lead indicated on the HUD currently and if so mind posting a screenshot? Would be nice to have for sim.

6209

Its only third person as with Sensor fusion it seems.

(I personally don’t see a reason to use it anyway)

6210

boy i sure love the Rafale

6211

Hopefully the stuff comes in cockpit eventually. The missile lead cuz should in theory maximize pK% afaik, just something nice to have, but def something you can figure out on your own as well.

Will be interesting to watch this report and see what Gaijin does with it. In the meantime, @IsurusOxyrinchus has done us a favor and reported the HUD inaccuracies some more.

I mean, im gonna catch flak for this considering the thread, but the SEP it had at high alt was absolutely absurd. Afaik there was no reason to believe the Rafale should be exceeding the F-15E/I or EFT in high alt high speed acceleration considering the engines, TWR, and probs the aerodynamics at play as well. Thats simply not what the Rafale is designed for, not as far as I can tell at least.

The HUD fixes/improvements are gonna be nice if they come through tho.

I mean it seems accurate to change it
And I don’t think it would effect gameplay for the most part, not once have I had those conditions in a match

6217

Seems the lack of range on mica now makes it fiddly to engage just about anything first with Rafale. Not sure why they brought the Russians to parity with everyone else but left us behind. Su 30 SM feels better engaging a rafale than engaging su 30 with Rafale.
