Once you get the missiles with gnss things will change, as you dont really have to provide DL all the time. Also multipath gets less noticeable.
Meteor:

Idk i think the meteor will be kinematically superior, and exists on better BVR platforms, but the PL-15 has an AESA seeker and that will make it signifigantly more scary than anything we’ve had so far
Unless China gets meteor via Bangladeshi Eurofighter
*realistic multipathing
old stuff is very susceptible, new stuff is almost nonexistent
fuck no
This is technically modelled in files too. Has a way higher track rate than normal PD seekers
Or at least, I assume that’s what this is for:
Compare vs other missiles visible. They’re all 60°/s vs PL-15’s 600°/s

I’d prefer if the game shifted towards using terrain features to dodge missiles rather than the 50m invulerability bubble…
And this would finally weed out some of the legacy maps that should not have a place in top tier
So you are playing f14s and not having DL issues? My f14 just drop the DL in a 60+km shot in NE and i cant even reconnect the DL because Gaijin didnt made it so you cannot reconnect DL for some reason, Every Fox3 except Aim54a can reconnect DL irl and i am not even talking about 2 way DL yet.
I said remove not realistic.
Gaijin can’t even make an RWR that doesn’t give you a new guy tone for everything with a low scan rate 😵💫
I figured GNSS would help a lot
track rate is just how fast the seeker itself can move around in the radome; it doesn affect anything really
you would only feel it if the track rate was like under 10°/s, as then you could outmaneuver the seeker itself
Making it realistic would in effect be removing it.
Yeah it does, the PL-12A is by far the most consistent fox-3 due to its GNSS and decent maneuverability + improved booster
Multipathing depending on missiles and radars, I would agree with, but a minimum height should always remain
yeah no. low BR radar missiles still need their realistic counters when planes don’t have chaff or are very unmaneuverable
BTW aesa seeker missile cannot be notched, then nato players gonna cry that their meteors are getting notched.
They need to finally trim down the unrealistically tall trees and give more maps interesting and complex terrain to follow
