Would’ve preferred the AIDC F-5E T 2000 as a F-5 event vehicle, pretty decent though still. Camo is sick though, we need more camouflages which apply to missiles and other ordinances.
I’m probably not going to get it for myself, the Penguin missiles are almost useless and the removal of AIM-9L/Is make it more of a F-5E SCU than anything else
The Penguin couldnt lock onto tanks historically. Is this going to be another case like the Korman ASMs where everyone grinded it out and then they changed it so it cant lock onto tanks? Did we not learn our lesson after that?
Kormoran can only lock on big targets irl since it is a radar based system, also i think active radar systems should have problems locking on groundtargets with groundclutter etc., meanwhile a infared based tracking system if sensible enough should be able to lock on the heat source of a tank
Kormoran doesn’t lock the tanks in game I don’t think, it just follows the data link of the ground radar, which means it hits the general area but isn’t accurate, which is fine really.
The penguin might see a tank, but it’s programed specifically to ignore it, so it shouldn’t be able to be used as an anti-tank weapon like they’re advertising
No, this is not just a thermal camera, if the thermal blob s not a ship it rejects it and moves on.
This is a fire and forget missile you’d launch overland, you don’t want it to go after a lighthouse or coastal defences
The only way to fire at a tank is if you use manual mode and throw it at a target.
If it can lock and track a tank it’s not a penguin missile, it’s something fictional.
