Normal IRIS-T + small update via an PC = IRIS-T SLS, thats it

Yeah but that was together with all the other really bad sources, maybe it’s worth a try with prefacing that these are 2 independent studies released by trusted sources that can be used to model the SLM more accurately.
But we should wait to see what they do with the SLM considering there’s an internal report.
Oh i see, i thought SLS was a bit longer with same warhead as regular IRIS-T
yep, all you need to do is have the right contacts )))
but we will likely wait till this report Community Bug Reporting System has an result, we passed also the new and better sources (not visible on report), so see you in 3 years xD
Bigger and more powerful motor that should easily break speeds of Mach 3 :P

Nerfing it the way they have by introducing an artificial speed ceiling makes no sense tho… Its not like launching it from the ground would make its structural limit decrease

It’s from sources. Most sources i’ve seen say SLS is mach 2 and both air launched version and SLM as mach 3.
I think it’s more to do with the delta v the engine is capable of.
Sure, but my point here is they did not change the dV of the motor, they just hard caped its speed to 710m/s if I’m understanding this correctly:
So in this case, its not “the SLS only makes it to M2.0” its “the SLS is not allowed to accelerate past M2.0”

I don’t know how to read the data mines so i can’t comment on that sadly.
So in that document, SLM can reach > M3 at Mach 3. It will also be able to reach 40 km distance as was calculated before, currently around 30. Is the current speed final or going to be increased to Mach 3 based on this document?

we have a special techmod at hand which considers this thrid party and not accepted cause its not goverment or manufacturer affiliated.
Which never was a requirement for authored works yet
and in which bug report it was not accepted?
are any of these useful?

I’ve found a primary swiss source that confirms it can effectively engage an evading target at 30km distance and 15km altitude. It includes a definition of effective range as well.
Will prob be reported tomorrow.

I have played three consecutive versions of Russia’s top tier rooms, and the experience in other countries is terrible. Except for France and Italy, only playing Russia’s top tier rooms has made me feel bored
can you send it to me in PMs?

I really hope the devs listen and buff the missile. The new SAMs were supposed to encourage other players to play top tier but if the SLM and any of the other SAM systems are just nerfed versions of their irl counterpart then… Once again top tier will remain the same.

If the new SAMs come out nerfed then I say its time for another carpet bomb. Top tier should be a fun BR to play at and these new SAM systems are giving players some well needed hope. Gaijin should not nerf these missiles at all.

IRIS-T SLM is so gimped it’s actually hilarious
obviously devs are giving it the stinger treatment on steroids to protect their precious Kh38 gameplay
