I think people are over-estimating what htey will be like.
In terms of kinematics, we alreayd see what they will be like with the MICA
In terms of seekers, theyd be no stronger than those on the SAMs.
And no missile in game has anywhere near the seeker performance it should have.
Aim-9Ls for example should be unflareable in pretty much any aspect if you are sat on reheat. Ive seen pletny go for flares even in a short range rear aspect shot against something hot on AB
Well the answer is, as always, we’ll see what gaijin does.
Maybe I am fearmongering but based off of irl knowledge of IIR performance, the current 16 vs 16, 14.3 matchmaker would not be able to deal with that threat
I’m not sure whether or not chaff is over or underperforming, haven’t looked into it. seemingly a lot of people overestimate alot of these radar missiles, saying stuff such as “radars should be unnotachble even look up with chaff” lol no
They are probably not entirely wrong. At the very least I doubt modern radars would be tricked by chaff as instantly as they are ingame. If “turn 90 drop 1 chaff” was really that effective, we wouldnt need things like BOZ pods
Let alone the fact that a lot of radars should be switching between radar modes to maintain the lock far more than they do currently.
