updated the mti report in the comments.
When firing upon a target with the r-24 missile, the current implementation in game is correct, with it automatically switching between mti and normal pulse mode.
So currently the radar is low k overperforming when in track mode and launch mode.
Underperforming in search mode.
BS modes is selected for both search and firing, yes.
And I swear to god if I need to have another debate about what counts as passive jamming, and whether or not it can be used in look up I am going to actually lose it.
“detection, acquisition and automatic tracking of aerial targets” obviously this means to also guide the missile. (as it is not specified for all of the other modes this can be assumed true for all of them, unless said otherwise)
Also yes BS is 100% used for ground clutter rejection come on dude, ive gone over this so many times
The specific document doesnt say anything about launching missiles for all of the modes because it is specifically about the MiG-23ML radar set and not missile
The r-24 manual and mig-23 radar manuals never state that it’s for ground clutter rejection though, after re reading the russian manual you notice that it only states for “clouds and interference” (probably ecm and chaff)
And?? It can obviously be assumed it can also fire in that mode lmao, what other nonsense would it be otherwise, even actual MiG-23 pilot has confirmed it in Razbam discord
