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

Technically not “advanced”; the Scorpion HMD is made to be customisable for the specific operator(s) to display relevant information for a specific mission profile (if needed). The Rafale’s for example could do all that and more, so not that different (would be weird for the country that made them to not have these features, no? :P)

Doesn’t really fix that but IASM by Viko Husky makes them sound a hell of a lot better.

The Patreon version is a multi-RWR system that has individual sounds per plane.

They sound incredible, especially the British Typhoon with the custom RWR, MAWS and VWS.

It’s also fully compatible with RCSM the whole game just sounds so much better.

Booooo bring back black and green. Kids these days ruining a classic :P

That looks (sounds) amazing, gonna look into that for sure

Not having the US placeholder VWS is awesome. Only shame is slight limitations like it just says “flares chaff” regardless of whether you’ve only dropped flares or chaff or both. But its funny that a modder has done what Gaijin couldnt in a year+

Several modders too (and all for the Typhoons).

Melk_Z_dek for the cockpit button lighting.

And Sean74218 for the interior HID tint.

And also Sean for actually accurate (and great looking) German Typhoon skins.

Yeah… Gaijin is getting humbled by the community when it comes to Typhoon modeling

That’s actual dedication for ya

There probably are some equally motivated and dedicated people in the dev team, but Gaijin would rather have them work on other things

Not true at all btw, integration is required on several platforms, including earlier F-16C blocks. Some come with it delivered integrated as standard, others do not. The Barak are one of these cases

These were Rafael’s loaned test beds, and other than just photo ops they had to test the missile somehow. The Barak Is were how this was done. They also tested the I-Derby and I-Derby ER in recent years.

Seeing as it hasn’t been entirely completely specified yet since this message: they said it’ll be a case by case basis for each individual vehicle. If a vehicle has a tie to a specific nation, such as their upgrade F-5S and F-16D Block-52+ being tied to Israel, they’ll likely appear in that nation. Gaijin could also do what they did with the logic on that Swiss hunter way back when, where they put a vehicle wherever they think it’s most needed.

A Question for the ages!!!

^^^ So how can it be that the AMRAAM ER can pull 40G of over load with smaller fins then the larger fins found on the C7 and C5??? Would love to get some clarification from an official on this!

The AMRAAM ER has thrust vectoring while the C5 and C7 don’t

Yeah sure it’s ai…but are you 100% sure it does???

In-game it does, at least according to the missile sheet, which is based on datamines

IRL it seems to make use of much improved control surfaces to achieve a similar effect

Very very very very very Gaijin is all I’ll say :/

they prob cant code better control surface so they just code tvc on it

Its possible the actuators are hooked up to a TVC system. But that’s just a possibility and I have no evidence to back it up

They don’t model dual plane maneuvering, so they have to make use of existing mechanics to emulate certain mechanics like that

So why can’t they emulate it for the AIM-120
