US Only teams are truly awful. Literally couldn’t get even a single win since yesterday. At this rate we might see amraam or aim-9ps are much earlier than expected.

AIM-9P are already in the game…They are export 9Js

Not trying to be his advocate or something like that but i strongly disagree that he’s “russian biased”, his reports are covering vehicles from all nations regardless of whether they result in nerfs or buffs, don’t forget that he was the one that reported for the f-15 to be fixed cuz on the devserver it was performing close to something like the mig29 smt…

oops. i meant aim-7p
Aim-9Ps have a slightly better guidance and resistant design due to the discovery of Soviet “Dirty Flares” and P-1s are reduced smoke signatures. That would be kind of cool to assist lower tier fighters I feel.
If Aim7s retain neutral control fin reset after a target track is dropped, it does not matter what variant of the sparrow comes to game. Do not worry in the upcoming patches though (I know everyone keeps saying that).
Good things will come. Utilize the performances GJ at least did give us.
What do you mean regardless of whether they result in nerfs of buffs? If he’s only looking to nerf NATO vehicles and buff Soviet vehicles, that is biased lol. Apparently he’s looking into getting the Vikhr buffed, because it’s ‘underperforming’.
Look through his posts in the Gripen JAS39 performance thread if you want to see a real comedy. I knew he was bad before, but in the last week he’s genuinely blown my mind. Tempted to make a compilation. He assumes he knows better than everyone, whilst at the same time professing his only qualification is that he’s a war thunder player, and demonstrating that he can’t even read the thrust-to-weight ratios on the WT wiki correctly.

I have known the guy personally for years. He is definitely biased. China is number 2. Soviet Union is number 3.
who’s the number 1

Alas, the thing he desired most, he would never have…
I need to send you some of the stuff he did in the Gripen thread Ziggy, it is going to blow your mind.

I just think you guys take things too personal, even more when we consider it’s just a game afterall… For me the recent f-15 report just debunks this narrative of him being biased or something like that, but whatever

You are absolutely right.
However… just a game you say??? I have never invested so much money into something that offered no monetary return outside a sports car…
Lol we are not players anymore we are investors at this point!
(I want my in-game title)

The F-15 change was a tweak, buffed in some areas, nerfed in others, and it made it more accurate. We also have no idea how many of these fm changes the devs were planning already.
Generally I would be inclined to agree with you, but when you’ve seen the way he consistently behaves, it’s hard to draw any other conclusions.

The limitations with that is that transmitter comes from the F4 phantom, it has 200W and lower gain. Higher energy output is more range. The APG-63 uses the the null filling horn to for similar purposes the difference is that the sparrow sees the return from the main antenna and the null filling horn provides the reference signal incase the sparrow has to move outside of the main beam to lead or something. The main antenna has a higher peak power(5kW pulse peak power) and gain than the 200W illuminator, all this allows the seeker to pick uo the target at a much more farther range than 22N.M for a 2m² target
If by time-division manner you mean like how the N019-N001 operate, 10ms for tracking followed by 20m.s for CW guidance then no so no warning. It doesn’t mention anything about a change in signal other than HPRF nor any implication in doing so in the F15-34s nor in the armament manual. If that were possible then there wouldn’t be a need to stay in HPRF, do the 10ms in MPRF to allow full aspect tracking tracking.
Only time I would think are for update MSIP2(85’-87’), updated APG63s to apg 70 standard, which also came with Range Gated HPRF(like MPRF processing). Denoted with a Hi+ on the radar scope(See bottom left). And
And its not a new 90s 2000s stuff as the APG-65(F-18A 83-84) came with NCTR, TWS and Range Gated High PRF in 85. The F-18 also able to do fire using the RG HPRF.

The F15A needs a buff.
How
HMD would be a start idk
Isn’t that an upgrade for MSIP F-15Cs?
