I don’t think it can be considered true “LPI” like as-is on AESA radars though due to the separate TR modules.
True or not, reduction of detection range from 36nm to 2-6nm is a thing.
Do we have any information about the AESA sensor arrays of the DASS being able to keep track of not just missiles, but close enemy aircraft as well?
I’ve not seen anything more than highly questionable speculation on internet forums.

Dont see why it wouldnt be able to tbf, unless theres a filter on to avoid detecting aircrafts, but this could risk interfearing with larger threats like SAM’s.
Still speculation at the end of the day though.

Different numbers, later ones

So EF also has a special rotor blade design and manufacturing process aimed to reduce thermal deformation. Allowing higher temperatures along the whole construction.

Unfortunatelly the time took the photos of what I was looking for
The sources are as stated

Call me crazy, but I think left to right, the numbers represent the numbers of weapons the respective station can take from wintip to centerline…
0-1-0-1-2-0 for AMRAAM would match the current 6x AMRAAM load plus the additional wingroot ALDERU pylon AMRAAM we’ve been trying to prove.
1-2-0-0-0-0 for all SRAAM’s represents the 6x load of SRAM’s seen in-game.
Its actually tragic the picture is gone.
Same loadout as seen here though:

I doubt the picture would show this loadout, I think it was just a ref
It’s a random website so not necessarily reliable though.

I think the sources are the most interesting part of it
Sparrow on the EF?
not possible
I know, say it to the table
Not possible, during development the Italian Air Force had a requirement for a CW illuminator so they could fire Aspides. But the CWI never happened so any weapons charts you see with SARH missiles is based on early development rumours and is not accurate.

And thats good.
I wouldnt not want to grind trough thise missles bwfore getting to the mraams

Welp after doing my daily check-up on this thread to see how things are going and if there’s more developments, I noticed a Coping American player in here a few hours ago shame I wasn’t awake.
I even had something ready for them…
Well the DASS display is certainly capable of displaying of displaying those targets, and I cant see any good reason why the radar shouldnt be able to track them
(My guess for the meaning of FLN would be Flanker, so it probably includes ESM as well)

Only problem is that doesnt imply the MAWS can, as its already known that the RWR on the EFT can ID targets and has a precision of sub 1° iirc.
