When will we see various electronic warfare suites in war thunder? Modes like DRFM and Noise jamming would help improve gameplay especially for planes fighting against fifth gen aircraft.

hope you are ready to get your f-4j jammed by a mig21bis

Spoiler

The Iraqis received their first jamming pod of the SPS-141 type early in 1981. It was designed to counter HAWK MIM-23A, since this system dealt with head on targets only the SPS-141 had a frontal antenna only. That type was less capable than the SPS-141 MVG type, and was a little bit problematic in actual deployment. The SPS-141 MVG came with the SU-22 as a complete package and there was no begging by the Iraqis, but rather a forceful demand for such equipment. That system was designed to jam the MIM23B as well as F-14, F-15, F-16 radars in the lock-on mode. The pod will affect the homing heads of the AIM-7M, F, Skyflash as well as the Phoenix missiles.

Stop asking for new mechanics when we can’t even have the mechanics we have currently work.
