General Japanese & JASDF General Discussion

Which one other information?

further proof the GCS-1 tracks tanks, with data/links from japans mod.go (public info) and such

I’d personally go look for it but that’ll take a very long time (reading alot of text is hard D:)

I hope you will find some of that info

if I find i’ll 100% send, I really want the GCS-1 for japan. it’ll be super unique and fun for japans kit

With ASMs added as anti ship weapon there’s really no more reason to delay them even without that info. The models already exist, so it should only be a matter of time.

its about half way usable in the game as well if u load it into a custom map

it would help reinforce japans kit too, F-1 (10.0) EJ(10.7), EJ Kai (11.3), F-2 (12.7)

ASM-2 can lock target that temperature is 15 Β± 5 degree higher than the surface or sea whatever,
and here also say GCS-1 can only lock target that temperature is 65 Β± 15 degree higher

It is written only about sea surface as I understand

I mean I’m really not sure how much difference they define sea surface temperature compared to surface temperature, maybe same or a bit higher

I mean, its known to have clutter rejection, no? So as long as its above the threshold it should be fine. But yeah 65 degrees is unreasonable to expect from an air to ground scenario for the GCS-1 on most maps.

Seems like HE damage dont work.
Ho-103 using air targets sometimes feels like shooting peas
other weapons also.
am the one who have this problem?

All HE shells are bugged ATM.

Got a bold idea, just combine bomber line and CAS/light bomber line then we can get a whole extra line for the subtree and the result is somthing like this:

I was doing some research finding historical jdam loadouts for the F-2A and I stumbled on 2 things which plagued my interest

AH-64D

AH-1S

AH-1’s for Japan should be having JM261 Hydra 70mm rather than the 19 FFAR’s

I have created a bug report on the AH-1S’s lacking their JM261 Rocket pods and attached the source

Hopefully gaijin will finally correct their mistake and apply the correct rockets

ARH + IOG sounds absolutely disgusting lol. I want it.

Its good to have a not classified source finally, last time someone sent stuff on the forums about the longbow it was classified lmao.

β€œNot enough info” and closed the report

Theres already scarce information about this do they really just want classifieds or something?

Random sites in the net are not sources so yes, nothing non expected

kh38mt’s brochure counts as a valid source, but someone documenting hydras on a cobra isnt?
