IRCCM Specifications

Gaijin should include more detail on how missiles are IRCCM.
At least the type in the card and the details on the Wiki.

The AIM-9M should say:
IRCCM: Yes, Tracking Suspension
Temporarily shuts off the missile’s seeker upon detecting flare deployment, relying on IOG to continue tracking the target’s trajectory until the flares have dispersed.

The AIM-9X should say:
IRCCM: Yes, Pixel Focal Plane Array
It uses a 128x128 pixel focal plane array to create a detailed image of the target, allowing it to distinguish the aircraft from flares based on shape, intensity, and motion.

The R-73 should say:
IRCCM: Yes, FOV Gating
40° – 60° OBS seeker narrows it’s field of view to 0.8°–1°after launch to ignore flares.

The 9M37M (Strela) should say:
IRCCM: Yes, Contrast-Seeking Guidance w/ FOV Gating
Dual-channel IR/Optical seeker is highly resistant to flares. 30° seeker narrows it’s field of view to ~0.5°–0.75° after launch.

The 9M336 (Verba) should say:
IRCCM: Yes, 3-Channel Optical Seeker
Views targets in UV, near infrared, and near infrared to distinguish it from flares. Highly resistant to laser jamming systems and IRCM.

The IRIS-T SLM should say:
IRCCM: Yes, Pixel Focal Plane Array, DL, Tracking Suspension, Home-On-Jam
It uses a 128x128 pixel focal plane array to create a detailed image of the target, allowing it to distinguish the aircraft from flares based on shape, intensity, and motion. If the seeker detects a flare, it can temporarily shut off or ignore the signature, relying on advanced algorithms to maintain lock. Capable of switching to a guidance mode that homes in on enemy jamming signals if DIRCM is detected. In addition to the IR seeker, the missile uses a datalink for mid-course updates, allowing it to maintain trajectory even if the seeker is temporarily blinded.

I know I didn’t include all the IRCCM missiles but you get the idea.

You could add this to the wiki yourself in the details parts.

As for the game, i assume they wont add it but who knows.

Attempting to add more missile parameters in the statcard is a lost cause. There are simply too many parameters to fit on what is meant to be just an overview. Either Gaijin designs a new GUI including all parameters of the relevant guided munitions, or they just leave it as it is now.

Aim-9X should be IIR and not IR. With also LDIRCM resistant.

That’s why I am saying just the type at least, not the details, like FOV Gating or Tracking Suspension.

I’m a Russia main, I did the bare minimum research for the US stuff.

Dont worry. Still got your point.
