F-14 Tomcat: History, Performance & Discussion

Might also want to reference;

Since;

Техническая подготовка командира взвода ПЗРК 9К38 “Игла””, И. Акулов, В. Байдаков, А. Васильев, 2011.

Doesn’t exactly seem like a “Western” Source now does it especially considering;

Directly contradict the article(s), they themselves have published, and also impact NATO ordnance / vehicles.

That is why I submitted reports for both sides.
Incorrect HPRF minimum range for Russian Radar (N001, N010, kopyo-21, kopyo-25 and every Russian Radar introduced after 1985):

Are you sure that wouldnt be a issue for N001? Its basicly upscaled N019

I think so. N001 was introduced in 1985. That hotfix seems to have already been applied before 1985, the year the manual was published. Page 128 of that manual stated:

"To eliminate this uncertainty, a method can be applied when the slope of the LPM changes in the second measuring cycle. All combinations of filter numbers are analyzed in the BTSVM, and the corresponding distances in two measuring cycles are determined. If the distances calculated using any combination of filter numbers for the first and second measuring intervals differ by more than 8 km, then such combinations are considered false and excluded from further processing.

However, this method has not yet been implemented in the radar complex(N019E), and uncertainty recognition is achieved at the stage of analyzing the trajectories (routes) of targets in the SNP (TWS) mode."

[Для устранения этой неопределенности можно применить способ, когда во втором измерительном такте крутизна ЛЧМ изменяется.Все варианты сочетаний номеров фильтров анализируются в БЦВМ, и определяются соответствующие расстояния в двух измерительных тактах.Если расстояния, вычисленные при каком-либо сочетании номеров фильтров для первого и второго измерительных интервалов, отличаются больше чем на 8 км, то такие сочетания считаются ложными и исключаются из дальнейшей обработки.

Однако данный способ в РЛПК пока не реализован, и распознавание неопределенности достигается на этапе анализа траекторий (трасс) целей в режиме СНП.]

Incorrect HPRF minimum range for the F-14 radars. (Updated)

I have complied with the feedback of the Bug Reporting Manager in the previous post.

Thank again for your swift response, Gaijin, but what does that even mean? I provided two sources in the report.

The same response was used in another ticket of mine, “Incorrect HPRF minimum range for AN/APG-63 PSP (Update)”, where I provided two sources.

This game is so cooked

Would be crazy if they fixed this within a few updates while letting the older buff-fixes rot

You’re responding to the wrong comment but does it even matter in this thread? They still haven’t given the F-14 it’s IR-T capabilities, and they probably won’t.

However, in the current game, this nerf will not affect much as most F-14 players becayse they usaually take x4 AIM-54, x2 AIM-7s.

Now give it the Fatter missile as well and it will be fine. Not many info on the missile though, still you can expect AIM-9P5 performance at the very least. In game , AIM-9P with 9M seeker.

That would be alright ig. I would rather R-73 though. Both are good. So the fatter would be only 20G then?

I can’t find specifications. I assume that is the airborn version of Azarakhsh missile from the SHORAD with the same name.

Here’s some wallpapers for you Tomcat Lovers :)

I don’t think people realis that this is more of a buff than nerf
