Ka52 DIRCCM prevent IR missile from locking before launch (your missile lock circle go crazy when u try to lock)
Mi28NM and other top tier heli prevent IR missile from tracking it post launch (swat it away when IR missiles get close)
So basically earlier IRCM and top-tier IRCM are functionally completely different?
Wow, yet another reason to not play past 10.3. At least the IRCM affecting you is rather obvious so you don’t end up wasting missiles.
Yes earlier IRCM is worse than the ones found at top tier. For example, Ka52 IRCM works on most IR missile it faces but does not work against IR AGM, meaning Mavericks, Kh38MT, etc. will still ignore Ka52’s IRCM and kill it. the DIRCCM found on top-tier heli is a different story, they will swat away every single IR-guided missile, including IR AGM.
Correct. Playing 10.7 is just gona get pulled up to 11.7 and Graped to death by BMPT and premiums. Gaijin handled top tier ground extremely poorly and I do hope they fix it somehow
they can and have already, check Puma IFV
they CHOOSE not to model it rn
Puma IFV has DIRCCM? which one? i never knew about this
Puma has a smart rotatable DIRCM called MUSS. not laser based but code wise its the same bar a range band.

How long does that “moment” last?
Same as RWR. Limited coverage.
However, even that isn’t a problem that much.
As a guy in another thread suggested, Mi28 might have a powerful 200W laser, but even if so, the laser is capable of killing the guidance only in the last second or so, by which time, it’s far too late, as the missile guides in on INS.
Whichever way you cut it, it doesn’t work like in game.
Honestly? I think thats absolutely the biggest problem. For the other stuff you need sources or math proving that the LDIRCM cant affect IR seekers the way it does. For the coverage you literally just need common sense and a basic understanding that lasers cant be bent around a helicopter fuselage or go through it. Its such insanely obvious pampering to artificially make yet another shitty russian vehicle better than it should be.
Yeah ok, but even if all of what devs claim is true, ie. they can’t, somehow, curb the azimuth and whatever, even the basics have been done wrong.
since mi28nm was released and safe to say that it will never be fixed (nerf)
what are u even talking about? IR missile can NOT touch mi28nm, ever. Unless it’s guided in by TWS radar like aim9x and IRST, but even then, the mi28nm has to be an idiot and stood still to get hit and is super unreliable, often times requiring 4+ IR missile sent at the same time
there’s only like 2-3 IR missile in game that has INS btw, very very few
Absolutely true but there is some regard of excuse they can give. There isnt really one for the basics physics of how lasers work.
That’s called “selective physics”. :D

Same reason as to why the terminator exists in the game the way it is. Honestly I’m just surprised how survivable helicopters from russia are in this game. Of course, apart of the Kamov series of helicopters which have no DIRCCM
