There’s no chance we will get a MICA-NG to compensate the advanced missile, all we got for a realistic scenario is MICA-EM actual range.
Means seekers aren’t accurate, Russian seekers are better than they should be and US/NATO seekers are weaker than they should be.
Should give the Mirage 2000D MICA IRs

The MICA missile now has a new feature, “Full engagement capability”. It will not be restricted to the seeker gimbal limit, and can fire at targets outside of its seeker gimbal limits if the radar has lock. This allows for better notching while firing coupled with the missile’s thrust-vectoring.

Does the r-77-1 also get this now? Pretty sure there were reports on both the mica and r771 getting this
Does the allow the silly angle launches in the short range or is that still borked? (Video not loading)
That aside, have seen new F2 has anti ship missiles. Would it be worth the attempt to ask for exocet?

It should.
Not sure about R-77-1 even though it should.
I think the anti-ship missiles are IR capable against tanks, which Exocet wouldn’t really be. Perhaps some newer version of Exocets exist though that are GPS-capable. Not sure.
They’re ARH according to game card, though I think one shouldn’t be. But I’m not too familiar with the things.
I asked Smin, the Exocets will not be added for the moment.
It seems you can, but good luck having your radar track outside the 77 gimbal limit.
Rubbish. We have super entendard, we have rafale, why we have no exocet
Wow that’s cracked!..
Meanwhile Typhoon players can we have a working Radar…

While I understand why it should be pushed…
Rafale will the single most broken plane in game…
Hopefully F15E and else don’t get 120C
We need decompression first
He indicated yesterday that ARH anti-ship guided missiles are not of interest at the moment in the game because they do not impact the gameplay much and that they are not concerned about them at the moment (even if the Japanese were allowed to have theirs). Personally, this frustrates me enormously
Until we get them, there aren’t going to be targets that warrant them. It should be added purely to enable more variant gameplay. Like actually giving us ships to target. I was miffed when it wasn’t added with etendard, I am quite a bit more frustrated that we get new ones for another nation but not exocet which is arguably the more famous option.

Huh. I wonder what made them think the rafale/mica needed this… At all.
Can’t possibly imagine.

120C wont be any different from 120B apart from tracking times off the rail and it has a limited HOB capability.
MICA Was already the best missile on the best platform buffing close range performance essentially now France have IRIS-T on an aircraft.
