DEV - F-15C incorrect AIM-120 amount // Gaijin.net // Issues

Man you have got to be kidding me.

Question is now, is it any different from the existing 63 in game.

I have sac sheet. Its will be proof for 8 aim-120s

Chronologically

Original Apg 63

1979 - Apg 63 psp(they removed the hardware radar signal processor unit 041 in exchange for a digital psp unit 042, memory was increased 4x, 24k to 96k, removal of some modes like LPRF and introduction others like RAM, )

1985 - MSIP happens (TWS, NCTR, RGH. . . memory increased to 384k, removal of RAM)
Apg 70(for strike eagles and last 43 C eagles coming from production plants in 1985). Apg 63 and apg 70 have basically the same A2A capabilities with the 70 having A2G.

1987 - (MSIP2?) memory increased to 512k, faster ADC, 2in1receiver exciter, amraam, MH sparrow, Vector Mode, expanded azimuth from ±60° to ± 75° during STT )

UP TO HERE the detection performance remained practically the same, 77 Nautical Miles(143km) for a 2m² target in RWS HPRF

Early 90s - apg 63 v1
Hardware changes to both 70/63 using VHSICs and other modules, new modes, updates etc.
Performance increased aswell.
164 - F-15Cs got retrofitted.

Beyond its v2 and v3 which is classified

V2 is 2000, 1st generation AESA

V3 is ~2010, current use

And if you want to go further,

APG-82v1 uses the V3 as a base and builds off of there with expanded A2G and other improvements, can kind of look at it as -63 to -70

Cool. What is the source?

And that but the real details details like those mentioned above we will not know till the 40s probably

On dcs forums, confirmed by a wso and someone with the -34-1-3(1995)

Definitely sekrit.

Link pls.

I think on one of the msip -34s I have you can see the az bump line that I can put

It is F-15 manual from 1995 ? I must have it ! :)

As far as I know there’s a 87’ -34(A2A) and A2A -34 from the F15E(99’, 01’ or 02’ I don’t remember) out there, go hunting

For me, I believe gajin change new radar to AN/APG-63 PSP radar for F-15A (USAF) in dev server.

and F-15C Baz Meshupar from Israel tech tree equipped AN/APG-63 PSP radar

I have F-15E, 93 and F-15C 89 ( and PW-220 AIM-120 changes) but I guess time has moved on and more manuals are available, cool.

In WT video with F-15C i see 8 AIM-120.

Will you be able to bug report it?

Just noticed, you can see the LAU-106 “eagle claws” sticking out from the CFTs
