That paper is specifically talking about early AIM-9Ms when faced with slow rise time flares used by the Soviets.
The AIM-9M was developed and tested against American flares (as they were readily available), and apparently performed very well against them. They later found out that due to a design flaw in the seeker the IRCCM circuit would not properly trigger against slow rise time soviet flares.
Once the issue was discovered the seeker design was updated with AIM-9Ms produced after the fix no longer having the issue
that would be too boring, choosing two datalink ir spaa but do nothing.
and, I guess it’s hard for iris-t to function without DL, after all it’s VL. you can’t point it to enemy
With the push to model more turret baskets and the like, I hope we can eventually see more properly modeled autoloaders that briefly adjust and lock the barrel into a certain position for the reload. As well as the barrel salute for some vehicles.
In 1976 Lieutenant Viktor Belenko of the Soviet Air Defense Forces defected by flying his Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25P “Foxbat” aircraft from near Vladivostok in the Far East of the Soviet Union to Hakodate Airport in Hokkaido Prefecture of Japan.
Thus Japan having captured a MiG-25P making Japan able to have a MiG-25P for their TT.
Well… I think Gaijin can better test the vehicle by adding it as an premium vehicle to Japan first.
Look how it plays through stats, and then add it to the Russian TT.
