Hi, sometimes I noticed that after having launched an IR missile, it explodes in the air before reaching the target. I did not notice any obstacle during its path (flares or something else). I was wondering what could have causing it. The issue happens with the SRAMM missiles (I do not know if it also happens with other missiles, but I notice this because I’m currently playing a lot the Harrier GR1 and the Hunter F6).
that could just be the missiles guidance timing out and self destructing, dose it happen about 6 seconds after launch?
Sometimes it happens well before 6 sec
Maybe try bug reporting with a link to a replay?
I just had a look, there is a bug report open on it:
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/GkZMurPlSh76
Probably worth trying to bump it up to get some attention on it
Thank you very much. So it’s a known problem.
well, it’s a reported problem, it isn’t marked as accepted yet which is why I suggest you hit the “I have the same problem” button to try to get eyes on it.
But it is a bug that is affecting others, so not something that you are doing wrong with the missile.
I hit it. Thanks again
Does it happen completely on random or after something specific?
I’m asking because the SRAAM does self-destruct right after its booster stops.
Random. And it took my attention because the explosion occurs sometime immediately after the launch
