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

So true switching from TWS to PD track and then ACM mode to try and lock the thing infront of you is an absolute joke. Give the Typhoon a 30km HMD and it would fix the issues with the Radar.

Yes based off my knowledge (outside of war thunder) It should be a direct upgrade to the F/A-18 that we have in game. The US should also get this upgrade but they did adopt it later (I assume) Becuase they used the super hornet for more of the roles these upgrades where needed for.

maybe make the HMD lock less crap too. its a joke how bad it is even at an optimal range

Damn well I guess @KhorneFlakez1337 needs to argue how France is now Unfair becuase they have the best dogfighter 1st best IR missile and the 2nd best ARH missile

Gaijin GM: we fix cockpits in major updates

also gaijin: refuses to that in major updates

i had to play like an absolute bot for it to hit me in the su yeah lmao

Best IR missile? The Magic 2 isn’t even close to being the best IR missile.

That seeker definitely needs to put in more work.

I cant say for th US since i dont know if they did any of the upgrades the titanium keel was only done for a fact by the fins and the Swiss. So it should still weigh less than the US on top of patria using smaller and lighter computers for the CAS when they were ripped out originally by the US.

I would think so really good maneuverability great IRCCM decent range. Doesn’t shit the bed as often as other missiles. It is in my opinion the best becuase it does everything amazing but nothing perfect. But like i said this is MY OPINION.

The swiss hornet had all CAS capabilities removed in real life they should technically be removed in the game.

YES super earth is saved!!!

The Magic 2s range is abyssmal, the IRCCM is easily defeated and the maneuverability is about on par with the R-73.

honestly, ever since they let the irccm kick in on the rail, ive found these two to be extremely hard to counter, both me firing them and having them fired at me. so long as theyre in the usual ranges where its already hard to flare them if they did get a successful lock in the first place
granted, i only played a few duels because i couldnt be bothered with warthunder for a while

See ive heard that but ive also seen them conduct CAS tests i believe they just dont use CAS as its not a goal with their hornets so i can’t say yes or no

I suppose AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-4 stat card launch range same AIM-120A & AIM-120B/RB99 but overload 40G

EF-2000, F-2000 and Typhoon FGR.4 could received AIM-120C-5

But wait 5 years gajin add EF-2000 and F-2000A (T3A) with Meteor

well, President died btw

it is what is is

My experience with the Magic 2 so far has been that they are very hit or miss when it comes to their IRCCM. However, even if my experience is just an outlier and the IRCCM is better than what my experience suggests, the Magic 2 still is worse than the R-73 and AIM-9M.
