ASRAAM will be superior to aim-9X in every respect and ASRAAM should beat out IRIS-T in anything but point blank range.

IIR looks like it’s going to modeled as 2x IRCCM rather than IIR based upon rumours/leaks, but they should all be relatively equal in that department

What was the G overload for ASRAAM?
Cant wait to see the 60-70G / 100G overload of the IRIS-T xD

Neat, cant wait for the day we get them

It works fine, i can’t speak about the gripen since i don’t have it but the EF radar works absolutely fine even in sim

The core strength for the ASRAAM is speed and range. Whilst irist is undoubtedly the best in close. like 5-10km. It’s far less of a threat past that point. ASRAAM though is deadly out to more like 30km.

The real question is how the IRCCM will work at range. Because if stray IR signatures are enough to defeat an ASRAAM past 10km, then that balance of power could shift back

Yup, you can make it work, but you need 10x more effort than any other radar to just get a shot off, let alone properly fight a target. And forget using the radar in WVR

Gripens radar is better than the Typhoons currently and I’d count the typhoon’s radar as the weakest/hardest to use in the entire British TT. F3s radar destroys it entirely

Vs the Radar of the Su-30 which is literally Saurons Eye

yeah im suffering through the gripen C atm and god is it awful I couldnt even pick up an SU30SM 10km in front of me at 7km altitude

Yeah, it’s one thing to compare the Goldfish-M to other M-Scans, but with E-scans in the theatre too, it’s hopeless. Especially as that’s all you fight in the FGR4

Before Su-30 and Rafale were added
Disabling the Radar and going full stealth mode was your best option knowing that Darters have 6km range and using your HMD.

In SB I still do it ))))
Full Stealth mode for the Win )))))

Just a shame the IRST is so weak at the moment

Ah, but need that LWR 😜

Eh, just an Gimmick…

Nah, did actually save me from a ka52 in a GSB match before

It is as half the things that target you dont set it off.
Gaijin thinks passive tracking systems like those found on the 2S38 use no kind of ranging laser.
They just know the range…
