lol, understandable. I find the SMT funni tho
what is altitude?
and missile its like apfds
The new changes on dev-server to the radar display allows for MCM to be a more viable tactic.
What is mcm
Missiles counter missiles, shooting down missiles with your own missiles. The person with the missiles left over wins (Su-30SM2 usually).

Is this a thing irl? Like, is it considered a viable tactic for self defense?
I don’t think so. I think the high speed of missiles as well as the smaller cross section of missiles makes it very hard to shoot down missiles. I suspect radars and radar missiles tend to prefer the larger cross section (airplane) that is showing up behind the missile being targeted.

with very specific missiles that are designed for it
only one that comes to mind is the IRIS-T

yes, IRIS-T slaved to MAW

Except in-game where they tend to go for whatever is closer regardless of size.
Yup, I suspect they will have to fix it whenever they add towed radar decoy since the whole purpose of it is to present a larger cross section than the aircraft it is defending, but if missiles still keep going first for whichever is closest then that’s problematic.

Maybe…but it is Russia vehicle ; after they join to official server usually gets buff…
Model is there but it doesn’t have a proper skin. It’s using the one from 9-13 I think. So parts like the slats and airbrake look a mess on the 9-15
Somehow developers have time and effort to model new missiles and do their research on new missiles but not the time and effort to remodel old missiles with provided sources

Yep. Pretty apparent with Starstreak changes this update, which will likely need an issue reported and only fixed a few months ago re-reported (dart spread)

New missiles such as AIM-120C-5 and AIM-120D requires:
- Obtaining documents while researching the missile dimensions and performance
- New 3D visual model
- Modeling the missile’s performance
Resolving current reports on missiles such as AIM-120A requires:
- Remodeling the missile’s performance since the report already provides the source so research is not needed.
But guess which one takes more time according to Gaijin?

other missiles caliber is close to apfsds, right?
If I had to guess the new 9-15 would be a premium right ? Or at least it being a squadron
Yeah I’m think a squadron vehicle too. Although this is Gaijin we’re talking about so it’s probably a premium.

Yep I did a quick research on it and defo seems more suited to them than tt
