Can I use this source to buff all Bri’ish stuff into oblivion?
Already reported has been for years now.
Edit: Ahh you were joking haha. I see now ahah.
You can seek a specific signal… If I have a seeker that’s looking for a 10Hz signal it is seeking that signal. This is a weird hill to die on. Is an ARH missile seeker not seeking specific emissions from its on radar?
Yeah, its just a tomato, tomato situation.
Another point, @Gunjob
the R-27ET & all IR missiles are only wing mounted on the Su-27 because the HMS does not work on missiles tucked away on the fuselage.
The seeker cannot see through the aircraft above the nose. That is why all IR missiles are technically incapable of being mounted on the fuselage. They will not work with HMS
How does R-27ERs “seek” through the fuselage of the Su-27 above the nose with this “PD HMD” mode?
Because it’s entirely fake
The R-27R & ER will not launch without its seeker/RF receiver not able to establish signal with the target.
How are these magical missiles able to seek through solid objects? Because the HMD mode is entirely made up.
Yes, but it is actively pointing in directions looking for a target. A SARH has no ability produce a signal & look for it. They just receive a signal that is bounced from the Radar of the launching aircraft. The radar on the aircraft does the seeking for it. That is why they are referred to as Fire Control Radars.
The R-27, just like the Sparrow locks on to targets after launch
How is it that the R-27ER can see targets above its nose? If IR missiles cannot be mounted on the fuselage & work with the OEPS-27 HMS because the seeker cannot see through the aircraft…
How does can fuselage mounted ERs see through the aircraft?
The R-27 is not a sparrow nor is any of that modelled in game.
I demand you prove it too.
now you’re just changing the subject to a game limitation applicable for other missiles
They don’t. As I said just like belly mounted Sparrow missiles the missile seeker (or receiver if you want to call it that) is told the direction of the target before launch. Once the missile is launched and is clear of the aircraft it then looks for and locks onto the target.
No they are lol
IR missiles are not able to be mounted on the fuselage of the Su-27 there is not line of sight for the seeker. The R-27R must establish a signal with the target to launch.
That is why 3km is the minimum launch range.
Multiple threads are filled with this guy arguing with other people
I suspect that’s because the IR missiles lack English Bias commands so require LOS to the target. Atleast with Sparrow/Skyflash, the missile receives EB commands to orient the missile to the target vector so the seeker can pick up the CW emissions. I suspect R-27 works in a similar fashion but I’m by no means an expert in any system let alone Russian ones.
missile sets the speed gates before launch , so when launched it can pick up the emission and starts updating.
sparrows on phantoms and F-14 are embedded in the fuselage. seeker half way obstructed.
at the same time sparrows should be able to be turned on without lock so it can be setup immediately after radar lock is achieved
I will keep looking into it, But the ER must establish connection & why is has a 3km minimum launch range. They never had PD HMD support. If they did, The R-27R & ER would be wing mounted only as well.
The R-27ER in aft position cannot even see to its right or left. This all comes down to the fictional HMS capability for radar missiles.
The radar had very limited ability to direct its beam already, let alone shoot high off boresight R-27ERs that are tucked away from receiving a signal.
We are left bending over backwards, splitting straws in attempt to justify bad modelling. There is no such thing a “PD HMD” mode for a radar that uses a modified Mig-23 Radar of 1960s design.
Thanks, but no thanks to straight-up propaganda.
Bruh we are left at this point of the conversation still believing that the R-27ER not only had high off boresight capability beyond the limits of what both the radar & IRST can see (even in game), but now they also lock on after launch for that extra spicy high off-bore sight capability???
High off boresight 350kg (771lb) SARHs that lock on after launch? That also go Hypersonic?
Hypersonic medium ranged SARHs with high off boresight capability? That lock on after launch?
@Flame2512 @Gunjob is this the level of realism in the game we are at? This is not realism, this is delusion.
Catapult launchers are used under fuselage, rail launchers with coolant are used under wings only. R-27T/ET can be used only on rail launchers.
So lads.
We came from Mig-29 flight model suck to Mig-29 can’t use R-27ER to Mig-29’s radar can’t use HMD and now we slowly approaching Mig-29’s can’t use any radar’s slaving weapons ?.
mig29 didn’t had wings
