Do yall know how radar works?

Completely curious… let me use the bias so i don’t get banned… Why does my Ka-50 get radar locked while on the literal helipad? The Iris can and has shot me down on the literal helipad… How does radar see through forest and mountains to kill me being stationary before i even take off? I’m so sick of this garbage.

Do you have the replay link? The IRIS-T can track and lock at targets very close to the ground, and depending on the map this may be easier or harder to do (for the IRIS-T radar in this case), if the “IRS” appear in your radar warning reciever, doesn’t means it have you locked. Maps like Carphatians, IRIS-T have the full advantages against targets coming from the south, this same applies in Sands of Sinai and south part of Sinai.

I’m also sick of those garbage hovering on helipad and shoot missiles at tanks, some maps are worse because they can shoot missiles at spawn. If they can do that so f them they deserved what’s coming lol

It is a very strong radar with very strong missiles.

It just needs one ping to launch the missile. After that, the missile will go towards that ping then pick you up once it gets close enough.

Ooooh, a Ka-50 player getting spanked so hard they can’t do anything? Love to see it.

Good ending. Always a good ending.

Side note: New Top tier SPAA have radar good enough to pick you up from the first heliport spawn. Either stop spawning helicopters or spawn further back, though you’ll still be outranged - Deservedly so - So just don’t spawn a heli.
