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

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:

a cartoon character with a purple face and a yellow ring around his neck|833x465.959375

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:

missile info

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
