There are several core weaknesses that you have to work around but when you do, it works well. Like the clunkyness of the radar and the weak nature of the BOL. You also have to adapt a playstyle that actually suites the weak HOBS nature of Aim-9M and Aim-120.
It also took me a long time to just adjust my playstyle to one that suites the typhoon. I was so use to mud moving or playing defensively from aircraft like the F3 that basic things like flying at any altitude other than 100ft took massive conscious effort.
Once I adjusted for that, I started doing well.
But still frustrating some of the weirdness the typhoons FM has, like it seems to take a week to accelerate at times and it’s largely random (or at least that is what it felt like)
JAGM-MR has been tested from the ground for sure, nothing public about tests on helicopters. Since it and the GBU-53 have IR modes there must be a good reason to have them on there
Im pretty sure TWS+ wasnt made for data adaptive scanning. Quite frankly, idk why they even made TWS+. Like I said, I only know of 2 radars with P-track, so its really not much work.
Yeah, much like the IR signature issues, I think they are just building upon code written back when they were brand new to the game, with the most basic range finder radars in things like the Hunter or very basic SRC radars like those in Javelin.
These highly complicated radars that have to deal with a million more bits of code and functionality just fall apart
Sounds like “weapons unavailable” probably because they’ve deployed the fuel probe. Also supppppeer funny, my German bros have to listen to what must sound like Maggie Thatcher telling them off.
Yeah, now the radar will straight up refuse to show you targets in some conditions, just played a game where i looked down on enemies from about 20km and in game my radar was blank, neither friendly nor enemy contacts, in the replay contacts show up and instantly disappear/don’t retain at all.
This is definitely a bug, or maybe just packet loss, but i didn’t get a network warning.
Here’s the replay, at the 4 minute mark.
