Mitsubishi F-15J

Will the aam-3 seeker off bore sight be repaired?

There seems to be a lot of misinformation in this thread, I don’t really have time to touch on all of it but just know the F-15J in the game is more or less as accurate as it can get currently. The additional weight is fuel.

I’m not surprised that these were turned down. Armament reports have to be quite comprehensive. If you guys want to DM me sources and whatnot, I am willing to help work towards getting sufficient information for a report.

Maybe we can cope it just knows problem and it will be dealt with in second dev?

i think we will not finish if we list all the cool liveries the F-15Js got XD

How is a video showing a side-by-side comparison the 9M and the AAM-3 “not a source of confirmation”??
It is LITERALLY a direct confirmation showing the AAM-3 only being slightly better. How else would we prove it?

Hey, an update on the F-15 thrust situation.

23,840 lb-f thrust is only permissible for up to 5 minutes.
21,360 lb-f continuous.

Since the Eagle in-game uses the continuous 97.7% trim rating we can assume the bottom number is the maximum uninstalled thrust. In-game it has 18,761.34 lb-f static.

This comes out to 12.2% channel losses for the intake… which is much more in-line with the other numbers.

If it’s accurate, that’s all that can be asked for.

Thanks for your help!

Is it possible to manipulate numbers in those tests? I know they had to change stuff to even do a demo like that. Perhaps the devs don’t want to take that as evidence because the values could be edited? Or they just want documents for both 9M and AAM-3, so they can directly compare?

Yes the values can be edited for those demonstrations. They can put a AAM-3 skin on any file data or custom missile file.

reporting AAMs is notoriously difficult. I remember R60s had a super long term problem where they would waggle back and fourth so they wouldn’t get the distance or energy they should have. But Gajin was horrible about accepting reports because it wasn’t just a stat card. Also some mods will accept datamined materials, some won’t. It’s rather bizarre, there’s zero consistency. And if anything this new report system has just shown how much of a mess it is.

that digital pattern looks so good. fingers crossed for it to come

Are you able to provide any update on this report?

I feel there is strong evidence of the F-15J having the PSP radar

Do we have the opportunity to obtain HMD for F15J in this update?

It’s still open, I don’t know anything more than that
