Should it not also be able to pull such high aoa that it practically falls out of the air enabling to pull the necessary lead for it’s 30mm cannons for when it really counts? Another thing not possible while it’s missiles are somewhat gimped as well.
Flight control system stops nose authority at 30-32° iirc but can exceed this in stall conditions.

Did anyone submit a bug report for lack of MPRF TWS mode for RDY? It can scan and track in MPRF PD mode but only TWS available is the HDN (HPRF).
Yes, two reports are submitted on the missing MPRF TWS. There’s also missing air to ground modes. Hopefully we should see it with the next major patch.

That article you provided says that the RDM can “track moving ground targets”, and “find and track naval targets”.
2000D and C have RDI in game, think they could get these modes too?
The RDM was quite a bit different from the RDI. While it was less powerful than the RDI, it had more air to ground modes, and the RDI never received these modes despite the RDI being a successor. The RDM is more equivalent to the RDY in the multiple modes it had while the RDI was a dedicated air superiority radar.

Evidence has been found that Mirage 2000’s roll rates are significantly less than they should be.
This video shows flight demonstration of the Mirage 2000. At the timestamp of 1:15, the Mirage 2000 does a roll in level flight while maintaining altitude. While being at 740 feet and 410 knots, it manages to do a 450 degree roll in 2 seconds. In-game, it took much longer.

About 2 seconds for me. Pardon the 20FPS, it is a 500Kbps video.
The conditions are wrong, you want 225m or 740 feet. The speed is right. Even then, the roll rate is over 2 seconds for 450 degrees. I’ll have to make a footage in-game, and use the youtube video, and do a side-by-side video.

Mute the audio as well to end audio bias as well, and you should be good.
I did one on minimum fuel just in case.
You can put this on as well. It’ll help you prove if fuel weight is a factor in this comparison or not.
That was also the case with the Mirage III wasn’t it ?
But they told us they don’t accept video evidence

Video evidence can be used if properly cited and such. Can’t leave out any variables however.
Anybody notice much higher flare resistance from the R60M these last 2 days?
I’ve had several completely ignore flares despite engine <50% when it’s usually a 1flare missile even with a/b on, wondering if it might be a Mirage issue since nobody seems to see it
R-60M always seemed to have decent flare resistance in rear aspect against afterburning targets.
TY for the great insight, i’ll be sure to keep my afterburner off when engine power is set below 50%
Thanks for the sarcastic reply, I was sharing my different experience in relation to the specific portion of your statement wherein you claimed “it’s usually a 1 flare missile even with a/b on”. I have not noticed any improvement recently and sure enough, nothing has changed in the missile data in the last few days.

Would a change about the heat signature of a specific jet, its flares, or the heat seeking code model in general all show up in data mines?
I believe so, it’s all there. I don’t think it is a server-side thing.
