I bet there’s a mode that swings it only within that angle to make update rate pretty much constant. But we’ll never see it, because it’s an ingame engine limitation

Oh wait, how could I forget the zsu-37-2…
There is a mode like that indeed, it provides 100 degree of horizontal coverage (and -2 +70 elevation iirc, forgot 4D elevation coverage) of electronic coverage.
The problem is, that in stare/fixed/zone mode other radars turn with the turret, for ti’s one, they would have to make a code that lock it to for example the direction you are looking at, and they are yet to make it.
Well I could see where they were going with this, as far as I know the missile uses seeker shutoff + shrinking FOV. As such, activating seeker at 10km still leaves it with absolutely gigantic FOV to see flares, rockets, whatever, thus kind of defeating the point.
Before the change, a common tactic I knew was just pre-flaring at all times 24/7, which exploited said FOV.
Good idea, dogwater implementation.

Yep you could preflare IRIS missiles quite easily. But now they are worse at long range
Wrong, it’s not worse, it’s utterly useless.
Want another funny? Pantsir is literally miles better than IRIS-T now.
kinda happy about that ngl
always was
Maybe BR can be reduced, since IRIS cant fight most of common air threats around 12.7 BR. It needs to be lowered so it won’t encounter DIRCM equipped enemy jets/helis.
Its really bad now. So -1.3 BR would be justified.

Tbh it should and it shouldn’t at the same time, the lock range nerf totally justify a BR change, but we are still talking about the SLM, so at a lower BR you will still have a 16 missile slinger, that might cause a problem to jets at such BRs
Lol, rage baits use to be better than this.

Fr he even’t named the wrong IRCM, DIRCM i thing the earliest we have is like the SU39
having 50k matches on ONLY germany must me next level delusions HHAAH
Yes. What else could be done? Almost every match a Mi28 or Z10 hovers up and kills you. While you just can’t shot them. Theyre untouchable.
Only way is to lower its BR.
you should be silent with your over 2k matches on britain
And i am not saying the sky sabre should go to 11.7 am i?
Dude an 11.7 IRIS T SLM would be able to meet early Phantoms, F5s and stuff like that. Like im mad about the completely random nerf as well but lets keep it real

Make it 12.7, Gaijin won’t fix ldricm. Why bother with it? Also the IR nerf has made it so that it switches over munitions easier. You can’t make this sh*t up.
Edit: Make it 12.3, Gaijin changes BR every week apparently.

Yeah it really doesnt need a lower BR, especially since if you play 12.7 you dont always get sucked into the 13.0 CAS hole.
And if you don’t have the flakbus as well in LDIRCM territory that’s a skill issue.
