for now its identical to the c-5

From previous loft testing, the max target omega going up is very good, the loft angle going up and the target angle going down probs not so much. Max target omega was the one factor that always had the most positive impact on long range performance, though it needed to be paired with semi-decent other values (loft/target elevation). (granted my previous experience with loft profiles was all air launched).
The missile pulling a 90 deg to horizontal before it begins lofting is pretty bad, massive waste of energy They likely need to fixing to that “orienteering phase”.
The increase in min range and decrease in wing area multiplier is bad, not sure why they thought that was necessary, pretty sure both are just straight up nerfs.
The missile likely could do with some energy management code like seen on fox 3’s and some fox 2’s, where the control surfaces have reduced max use depending on time to target, which helps smooth out the flight path and mitigate energy loss from minute target flight changes.
Finally, the fact it seems to stick to pure pursuit throughout the flight envelope probs needs to be checked more. That would have a significant negative impact on its ability to hit moving targets, along with its long range energy conservation.

Seeing how some prop planes sometimes reach Mach 10 while spinning out of control, this might be a way to prevent weird desync or glitches to make the missile perform horrible wrong.
Never!
Soooo apparently the Pantsir is also getting buffed along with the new SAMs?!
Slight increase in thrust, reduction in drag, and improvement to maneuverability.
Obviously the Pantsir was too weak, it needs buffs to keep up /s

its 1% better than before
Its stupid they snuck it in there at all, it didnt need it

Wasn’t it already overperforming the range department? I mean, yes it’s faster and smaller but due to it being light the drag and speed bleed would be much higher. Higher than it currently is, especially at high speeds.

Range is better now but still not correct. Loft Profile and Radar need some work. The Radar hud is nice but cant see whats friendly in the target list. Firing in the Radar hud doesnt seem to work for me.
lemme guess you try to fire with LMB?
you have to change it, then the firing works

yeah i didnt change it
Also intercepting munitions doesnt always work, sometimes the slm just goes off to the side completely missing it.
You can press the place where it shows all the options below the center radar square. So the “fire main caliber weapon” is actually a button and not only a tool tip.
Those additional ~70Ns look like a game changer to me.

does anyone have access to the SLM? i wanna see how good (or bad) it does with it’s new buffs against the Su-30SM
i mean thats 400m more range
which sound insignificant but its actually something
i would like to thank to all gentleman and ladies(i doubt)that worked hard on this forum to get our spaa system presented right in the a vritual game, it is all of you who accomplised in youtube in reddit in here raising your voices and sources,againts to one sources that break down everything. it is you who fought your way to win.
I am only wishing for more forums like this to bring out realism to this game
so now time for phase two getting it to actual specs completly and get dircm report passed

After some rough testing with @Dontkev-psn and my Rafale ; I was not able to defend against the SLM within 20km, beyond 22km its too slow against maneouvering targets.
