@GitGood

gotta love me my IOG+Datalink on a Fox-2 missile, wonder how this even works

The aim9x simply inherits the datalink from the aim120d

@kizvy

Well imagine a missile that can be fired at literally any angle. That’s because of iog (as you can see by the ±180 degree launch limits when target is captured on a trajectory).
So a plane can literally be behind you, you can still launch your missiles if you have a track on them (really only works for su57 as that has 360 degree irst vision)

In a bubble sure, but real life with datalink? Ground radars allied aircraft all can give you the ability to get a solution on somebody outside your own sensors

@noister

The 101-KS-O DIRCM turret also doubles as a IRST.
