It’s that bad? Yikes.
BOL chaff is currently 1/4 the strength of a regular chaff (should actually be marginally stronger)
and iirc, someone previously told me that large chaff was about 5.5 x more effective than a regular chaff.
If that is true, then 4x5.5 is 22. meaning 1x large chaff in theory drops the same amount of chaff as 22 BOL currently.
So yeah, unless ive made a mistake somewhere… the current state of BOL is extremely bad. Though thankfully, with how its all modeled, that amount isnt required.
afaik, there Is no difference or very little in effectiveness between bol chaff, large caliber chaff etc.
That only applies to flares
they are definetly modeled to release different amounts of chaff and thus the subsequent RCS signature is smaller
Wait… Did the very detailed forum post about the ahistorical BOL nerf from Flame2512 get deleted? I can’t find it anymore and every old link points into nowhere (“Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.”).
Dev forum threads only remain viewable for a short time, Here is a copy
Huh, would be better to make an “official” forum post out of this, otherwise you won’t be able to find it anymore ^^
Could be worth it
I’m confused why the Gripen HMD is so useless when IRL it’s all about sensor fusion, it should have something like this, no?
Sorry, off topic I know
Gripen E lacks many features such as:
Sensor Fusion
Double Racks for A2A missiles under wing pylons
VWS
Really loving the custom VWS from VikoHusky’s IASM sound mod that was released today.
When dropping CM’s:
FWÆH FWÆH FWÆH
HOLY, I need this in my life, link please?
Not sure whether the WT Live version has the VWS but the Patreon version does along with their multi-RWR system.
It’s also fully compatible with the RCSM sound mod which is amazing.

Also has one for the German Typhoon too.
Mateeee this is great! 10/10
Makes the Bitchin’ Betty placer holder feel like this haha;

Honestly IASM is an absolutely amazing sound mod. Especially the multi-RWR version on Patreon. It adds so much.

I cannot recommend it enough it’s phenomenal.
And also now that they have worked out how to keep the mod updated when Gaijin doesn’t update the github sound repository without using masterbank files it means it will be updated much quicker now.
And now you can also combine IASM with RCSM for peak experience
