Next Major Update - "Eagle's Shadow" Rumour Roundup & Discussion (Part 2)

Thats my point, unless your already in a notch from seeing them come in its quite hard to notch from the rwr warning alone. Ive had it a couple times where ive seen it going for my friendly for it just to switch to me and im going mach 1.5 in an su airframe. Last thing im doing is getting into that notch in time.

So yes, they are an awarness check but that doesnt mean they are easy to notch as other missiles as the rwr doesnt give you enough time to get into a notch.

fair enough

GNSS says no, im going to stick to what i know and notch and crank otherwise ill have an f15 or f18 on my ass with 12 arh missiles that they will spam at me untill im dead. I need the ability to fire back and keep them at bay while i get close to finish them off.

@Smin1080p_WT Are there any plans to add the F-15JSI, since it’s almost the same as the F-15EX?

completely different aircraft btw

Its not almost the same they just share radar and EPAWSS but the rest is a whole different thing and there is little to know about it

I mean, in War Thunder terms, the F-15JSI is just a worse version of the F-15EX. The F-15JSI has weaker engines and shares the same airframe as the old F-15J MSIP, since it’s just a modernization.

Why say “since it’s essentially the same plane as the F-15EX” to begin with then?

Since it’s clearly not.

why are they even modeling it? is it a test of super long range missiles that could be added? I don’t know what they could add to other nations, as the PL-15 still seems a lot worse on range than the meteor, but leagues better than anything we have in game right now

It’s been in the files for ages. IIRC this is the only time they updated it. A player tested it, as you can with literally any asset not in the game atm via some minor tinkering.

Also, missiles generally don’t just spawn into existence.

@Smin1080p_WT I apologize, Is there any plans to add radar sights on the aircraft they were installed on, and radars for bombers? At the moment, some aircraft are literally just regular aircraft with a free-fall bomb, although in reality they had some systems that gave them the ability to carry out all-weather attacks and precision strikes.

It will also be interesting to see if the system for releasing bombs from the bomb bays will change, since at the moment most jet bombers with bomb bay drop bombs from high altitudes with great inaccuracy. So much so that a bomb can land 500 meters from the bombsight’s crosshairs. This greatly complicates accurate strikes.

This needs to be the way

One thing i have always wondered is how many of the people asking for DCS-esque gameplay or features in WT have ever actually played DCS.

thanks

In a lot of cases, I do believe they probably did

But even if they never played DCS, they seem to not understand that people wouldn’t play WT, if they wanted to have a much more realistic gameplay experience

Huh? Even Big Ahh GaN based AESA radars can be notched in game, such as Captor-Es, J-16’s one can be notched, why wouldnt a much smaller onboard radar unnotchable?
