Current countermeasure configuration matches your claim, so i dont see any problem in here.

@ 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

“spectral” flares just mimic the signature of the aircraft to a larger part of the EM spectrum (hence spectral). They are used to deceive dual band seekers, which contrary to earlier seekers look at a couple different wavelengths to distinguish the target from false returns/decoys
Are those spectral flares the ones that also “mimic” the aircraft shape too to fully fool those advanced fox 2 missiles ? Because i’m sure i heard something about it on a video with an ex dassault engineer about the rafale.
Yes you now get 8 missiles and more countermeasures.

Hello, is there any news about the tearing speed of the Rafale?
HELL YES, FINALLY !
Any fixes to the radar, or the tracking/locking randomly switching to IR, or HMS trying to lock with IR against people dumping flares ?
No new changes to the Radar or IRST
Dont think so, I thought that tearing speed was already accurate to the IRL top speed?
Yes I know it wont wing rip at mach 1.8 and that it is because of the RAM coating but we dont have that in game.
