The F-16C scene is just to show it getting a proper HMD look.
Those are more AIM120C
The A/B variants (B being just a hotswapable software update to the missile, nothing special) are just active seaker 7Ms essentially
For range at least
That’s only for late C variants. AIM-120A/B had shorter max range than late AIM-7s. R-27ER/ET would overperform them kinematically by a mile.
Which is what they were designed for Iirc
Also real curious about Japans new SPAA- Hows the range on that puppy?
Advanced MEDIUM Range Air To Air Missile :)
Yep but you can shot and go in defence or fly to the ground.
No, I mean the R-27ER. They were designed to hit the target before the AMRAAM went active. Which is why they have such crazy speeds
Oh right on, misread <3
7km but an effective range of 3Km
Ok then fair, ill admit i was entirely wrong on amraams, i just thought that they are gonna change the game in a way that might push a lot of people away fron toptier, especially when you can do the same in dcs for the same price of a top teir premium (or less in some cases) with far less time grinding as well
No real surprise there.
allo
Ough that sounds pretty rough still. Are they SACLOS?
Not like you can break a lock with R-27ER… oh wait.
Same can be said about defending against AIM-120??? Or literally any radar missile…
is there any chance that gaijin will add m109 for germany too?
Yes i know ER has datalink
i dont remember tbh but they are guided normally or they can be fire and forget
Max is 14km effective being 7~8km since these are the IR ones.
AMRAAMs I suspect will be alot like how it was when F-14 was first added.
But now imagine they fire AIM7Ms with IR seeker tracking and manueverability, and are immune to flares.
16 v 16, each team has them. All planes firing them.
