the correct one should be 72 because the 40mm launcher should be the same ones of the Eclaire pod (at least by taking a look at it) so 18 flares per launcher

To my knowledge small should be 1x18

me neither, i mean 8 MICAs aren’t that bad of a change but i’m not a fan of this hybridization of CMs
I think Dassault and India would disagree on the less missiles because they both thought 8 missiles was the way to go
I am not sure what do you mean by smart, could you please clarify?
Rafale can for it’s dispensers have different configurations, let’s take into account the one we have now;
8x60mm CMs or 18x40mm CMs. 60mm cartridges are MTV, 40mm ones can be normal or Spectral.

So that still means the updated CM count is wrong then and should actually be 16 large + 36 small + 112 chaff right? Should that be bug reported?
This is whats live in game right now.

I guess I see ‘smart’ being thrown around but spectral is the correct term.
@ WaretaGarasu do you know of any plans that would allow us to pick between small and large countermeasures for the SPIRALE system? Or should I ask a suggestion moderator?
as stated above in this thread, smart flares are advertised as CMs capable of jamming IIR seekers of modern FOX-2s, afaik they’re capable of mimicking an engine thermal image or something
don’t ask me how, i’m not the one who posted that info
Then the claim made of 60mm countermeasures being “smart” is incorrect. What you are looking is for Spectral ones and 60mm ones are not.

i only answered your question about what they mean by ‘smart’ flares, actually idk what’s their caliber and i’m not making claims about it :/
If i’m not mistaken, they mean the spectral flares used for defeating a type of IR/UV seeker we don’t currently have in game.

Okay I’m sorry y’all I saw someone earlier say 32 small and I thought I was going crazy over these 4 phantom flares.
No worries buddy.

Probably, yes. However 60mm countermeasures are not “smart”. 40mm can be Spectral which can be used to defeat IR/UV Seekers.

oh so that’s them
tbf i thought “spectral flares” was something related to the spectral system (like automatic release or smth) not a that kind of smart flares
Went back and edited my statement to mention that only the 40mm can be spectral. Sorry for any confusion.
No worries! I just wanted to clear any doubt as in this days I’ve saw this statement a few times
