Alright thanks, because the latest info was that Gaijin was still deciding details like how many could be carried.
I was just afraid R-77 arriving first would be a bad sign, but I guess it’s fairly straight forward to copy the R-77 laodout from the Russian one.
~3 months is nothing…
Aster 30 is the name of the missile, not number of reports
The wider ranges were added for those radars simply because sources can verify that. Sadly it can be added without some sort of evidence.
I misread.
No US AESA radar to my knowledge has a gimballed swashplate, which is what gives the European offerings their scan angles, so unless you can find evidence that it was gimballed then they won’t be buffed, because there is nothing there to be buffed
Yeah that’s what I kinda expected sometimes I’m saddened by how good are USAF security is sometimes.
Now the the golden eagle got the MRML racks, will the dual amraam racks on the belly also be added? And will these come to the f15e?
No it doesnt. Maverics use the same infrastructure between models and are integrated with the Gripen from the get go. Its not technically capable but actually integrated with them. Same situation as AIM-9L/M compatibility.
There is currently no evidence of these racks being functional or integrated on the GE.
Will the f15e atleast get MRML?
Were they ever functional?
Pretty sure there are FCS and Datalink restrictions on that many AMRAAMs
yeah info being classified on the actual radars itself also doesn’t help, like I joked yesterday imagine we see the F-35 with the same 70 by 30 TWS.
I made this while I was waiting for response so even if its worthless now ima post it.
It doesnt have it in real life. You are thinking of the EX.
Right but you don’t need classified docs to see if the radar has a gimbal or not, of which I don’t think any US arrays use one
Lets just add the EX next update;)
exactly, problem is we don’t know how wide the scan area of the radars itself is, I don’t really need the 180-200 scan of the EFT’s with the Gimbal i just want a radar that scans the whole area that I have the right now, like the Rafale tws that scans the whole avilable area for the radar.
would you want them???
further edit: don’t get me wrong some aircraft can make them actually quite decent, but the Gripen like the f18’s is not one of those airframes.
I am so confused. Why add them then?
