thats kinda the same logic tho of saying 80km on the aim120 when your never gonna hit that kinda shot on a real target, the devs are most likely going off the logic that the target would need to be flying at you with decent speed and not turning to hit 40km.
the Target list in the right corner has something satisfying xD

(talking about the 40km range) Timestamp in case the set one wont work: 3h 2m 42s
I dont get BVVDs Idea with the High, like sure, an Missile launched at high Altitude has more range, but how does this match with an Ground launched Missile?
Like, these 20x40km are for an Ground Launched Missile, not an Air launched one.

When its according to BVVD just 15km under Realistic conditions, (instead of 40km)
Shouldn’t the IRIS-T SLS also just work at like 3,5km Instead of its 12km when we use the same rules as from the SLM?

you think it works beyond 3-4km on supersonic targets? nope.
Dunno, havent tested it realy with the SLS
Hmm, so IF we would realy want the 40km we would need something like the SLX which has 40km Altitude and 80km range :(
Should check if it can even hit a 20km target rn. I kind of doubt it considering the numbers ive seen. This thing seems to be massively underperforming kinetically
Hit an Hovering target at 25km, after 75s the Impact was with 510 km/h
It does hit past 20km(stationary targets, or me in an a10 going 300 km/h), it can go up to about 25km right now.
But Only when you use Launcher 2, Launcher 1 is bugged, the Missiles explode after 40s
you did hit hovering yeak141 yes that good to know we can hit heill at such range but the missile was probably going 500km at most can even hit prop with that kind of speed
That impact at 23km is at 143m/s or roughly M0.417.
In fact, the missile appears to be subsonic (less than ~343m/s) through the entirety of the clip, starting from the ~13km mark shown in the vid, sitting at 289.2m/s(M0.843), suggesting its likely not much of a threat to any jet actually maneuvering at said range.
Im actually kinda curious to see what cutrent in-game missile speeds are out at that range actually, cuz i have a feeling stuff like the Pantsir and VT1 missile might actually be faster🤔

SLM can barely do Mach 2 after 15 seconds of burn when it should be Mach 3.2 at peak velocity and this speed should be on the 20km not after 6km only which is insane for an irist

Sorry, meant 20km alt, mistyped

yeah, pantsir missile can still pull 17g at 19km and still holding high speed of 1.3 Mach yeah to think still that fast at that range is scary what did they think of when they add it with no counter even tho things like TV-3 upgrade of the TV1 with 16km range and Mach 4.5 could be added with it
Lets see if the next Dev-Server Update will solve some issues of the Missile (Kenetic) wise
ah yes lets see
?
(Yes, its an sentence)
