never seen this before, what part of the aircraft look like this?
Seems to me that Gaijin can’t decide on the scanning pattern of the PIRATE. It’s been changed yet again lmao
things on the side are canards, so you see some legs of your pilot
Has nothing to do with the MFD camera display
MFD camera position is too high. Compared to the dedicated view and sensor position.
Appears to be on the SU-30 HUD.
Of course it is
But as you can see from these images the radar has never been so bad before. this update made it even worse

This update is a bit of a lemon for me, not many improvements for the radar or armament and I’m not going to stick around to get pounded into oblivion by 2 Kh carriers in GRB, maybe when we finally get some FnF and Priority Track it will be better.
I can’t wait for when Gaijin reaches the limits of adding new stuff and focuses on refining systems and gameplay.
Until today with sidewinders it only worked as long as the target had an engine running. Since today the range has increased, but I don’t know by how much yet
The actual idea of interception (at least in the game) is not to hit the missile, but to fly close enough for its detonator to detonate itself.
What I’m curious about is this. The Rafale was tracking the target in the upper hemisphere. Where is the IRST, which is logical. If the aircraft is equipped with a TGP, then tracking continued in the lower hemisphere?
Dopuble pylon on su-30sm is not real
You can see a prototypical version in the following video of the LANTIRN navigation pod, where it slews Left & Right, yes it might be displayed on the HUD not a HMD but it’s not much further to having it cue to a HMD LoS like the PNVS does for the AH-64.
We even know that the Basic F-16s for example could have been wired (As per MIL-STD-1553)for it, had it received a HMD.

Eurofighter turns like a boat after Mach 1 now
Is this the same if you have a TGP mounted…that would make brimstoning helis easier 😃
You still need a laser designator though
Yeah I’ve noticed that, feels like an F-15E
What the hell have they done to its low speed handling, its like the stick is connected to the flight control surfaces via a bowl of custard
I noticed that too, and it feels so limited compared to before. I should be able to pull lots of AoA and even tumble out of the sky in full real, but no, it feels like a Mig-29.
Well, new MAW system is completely useless, fails to flare, well, everything
UPD. - The radar is also worse now… Somehow… It takes half a year to get a TWS contact + It completely misses the vector at first + it drifts by A LOT afterwards, ghost contacts etc. are still present.
Woooooah, what an update.

Played a few games in Typhoon, now let me preface this with I do not have another 14.0 aircraft.
My only reference point is Typhoon.
Changes to the FM have turned it from being a fast, agile jet to a fast ponderous jet, it doesn’t turn well at all at any speeds…(G limitation is not indicative of ability to turn)
Canards feel like they do not influence the FM at all and instantaneous turn rate while over performing in the last update doesn’t feel like that Gen 4.5 unstable airframe (I have the Su-33) and that currently has a superior instantaneous turn rate…Even clean the Su-33 is far more responsive.
Typhoon feels like it is being artificially held back and the FM is clunky and feels incorrect.
I shouldn’t have to use the AOA button to turn better.
Radar is improved, still not close to what the Russians and the French have but it is improved.
It does find things.
MAWS range detection for the ADATS in the test flight arena 3km before the MAWS saw it in level flight…
So much for that 9km range or the new “missile heating” mechanic.
I see the Typhoon needing further refinement or we are all going to have to fly in full real controls to be unlock the performance.
