Major Update "Leviathans" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

It does, but again. PIRATE also provides ranging data (actually that is somewhat modeled in game now) but still cant be used to guide an AMRAAM

Not saying Tpods shouldnt get that ability. Just saying, lets fix IRSTs first and then look at breaking (because lets face it, it will break Tpods for a while) tpods afterwards

Right, but being able to track through the notch with the “auto change” system and now being able to launch when auto changed is still an improvement the TGPs should have benefited from.

Typhoons radar can track through the notch just fine when it STT.

So I dont think ive ever had it auto swap to IR.

With how many issues are surrounding Tpods anyway. Like the fact they cant even get FLIR + Tpod to work at the same time and they have to disable any built in systems if you have an external tpod

(Tornado Gr4, Harrier Gr7/T10, Rafale, Typhoon, etc)

I think they need to overhaul their code before trying to pull soemthing off like making Tpods double as IRST

irl since the baz meshupar never got its radar updated it would be nice if gaijin moddeled it like it is irl,giving it spice 1000 and 2000, updating its cockpit with what is acctualy is irl, giving it acsess to python 4 and aim120B replacing the aim120 a it uses now. also with the changes i mentioned its br dropped to 13.0 -13.3

I would agree with you. Top tier compression is really bad at the moment. For example why play the 2a5, 2a6 or pso when the 2a7 exists.

f5’s, phantoms and f104’s vs aim9x and slamrams is crazy

Spyder aio only runs I Derby SR/ER. Why was only Derby got?

Either give it Python 4 and keep it at 13.7 or leave it as is capabilities wise and move it to 13.3.

It shouldn’t be both at the same time.

Its a placeholder
Also im not sure i derby will have a diffrance in the game cuz gaijin doesnt model ecm/jamming (if it will be harder to notch then it will make a diffrance)

We got r77-1
We got 120c-5 (even for ef2k wth?)
I think we should get derby er as well

The Typhoon has the most underperforming radar at top tier. It needs something to keep up.

Not sure on the 17 as the LMUR requires additional antenna to guide it.

Yes LMUR isnt fully fire and forget, for stationary targets…yes for moving targets the gunner manually guides it.

The biggest difference is the range. I think Gaijin just hates the Israel tree.

like any other modern LOAL missiles, but ok with just FNF, though a waste of it’s range, same for SPIKE NLOS in AH-64E.

Actually an Mi-8/17 variant was the first helicopter to use it (Mil Mi-8MNP-2)

Ok, I think I’ve got it this time

Report is live:

RAH-66 Comanche missing RWR, ALQ-211(V)3

“ALQ-211 is the name for the complete self-protection system, not an individual RWR.”

“SIRFC consists of two required sub-systems: the Advanced Threat Radar Jammer (ATRJ) and the Advanced Threat Radar Warning Receiver (ATRWR)"


"From this point on, when the name SIRFC is used, it will refer specifically to ATRJ and ATRWR, which are major sub-systems under this program’s development .”

any update about mig29 sniper?

We ll a radar fix would have been nice, instead of more power creep.

I personally dislike that the EF gets the C-5 (presuming it will changed again and gets more range).

I think we all saw what happened with the Mig29 after they gave it a better missile (it shouldn’t have)

Spyder is currently extremely WiP on dev server.

Virtually nothing about it is finished. It’s just a husk of a vehicle with placeholder everything.

“Type81c”, which uses an IRIS model, is presumably a placeholder for Python 5

“Derby”, which also uses an IRIS model, is presumably a placeholder for SR or ER, we still don’t know which, but given SLM is getting a 40km missile, there’s no reason not to add ER which is also 40km.

And this is why players shouldn’t take war thunder as a historical game as this is a very clear stunt of gaijin do what they want as it’s their own game

Iirc the EF used the C-5
