They pretty much always release updates on Tuesday, if I remember

I think July 1

Missiles being classified by generations seems kinda dumb to me, it should be by their characteristics or seeker type, “generation” to me is arbitrary. But oh well, that’s the way marketing goes.

I think so to but I hope they cook for another week before releasing it beause there are still so many issues.

Normally of the time its the next Tuesday after the dev closes

But I mean R-73 is a gen 4 missile, so is FB-10. However FB-10 has IIR seeker vs base R-73’s two element IR seeker. So I wouldn’t give too much to just missile generations.

i dont.
i just go by the marketing because thats all i got in terms of sources that are specific to the part itself and not “just” a study talking about the general technology and its benefits/ limitations.

r73 is a 3rd gen missile iirc

talking about gens is stupid. wether for missiles or aircraft…

This report should also affect the SLM lock range if passed:
