the radar produces a high res map of the area and compares the silhouettes to a pre-made log of silhouettes it can engage to eliminate the possibility of blue on blue accidents, which acts like an IFF system, i will have more info to add as im still researching abt it
it has a self-destruct feature if it cannot find any targets, and it can be programmed for its MMW seeker to not engage while flying over friendly forces
it uses similar tech to the AGM-114L LongBow since they both share a MMW radar
we need EW/EA or atleast HARMs and jammers, w the bmpt update the addition of giving everyone a free spaa has ruined cas above 10.0, we need anti-spaa weapons BADLY
We know ARM is coming, hopefully next major, and whilst I would be interested in seeing a preview of ARM sooner rather than later, its ECM im most intrigued by and how they could implement it and what affect it could have. Gaijin has used the April Fools event to test such mecahnics in the past
it’d function the same as IRCCM, no? like the IRCCM on helis that scramble the ir seeker, or on tanks how it makes the missile hay-wire and loose control, it’d be a mix of that i assume
EW is just an umbrella term for EA, EP and ESM, we already have a variant of EW ingame, and its the IRCCM on tanks and helis to combat missiles and IR missiles, radar EA would be interesting to see how they work it, would it make the vehicle unlockable, or make its position be off by a few meters? or would it damage the radar or make guidance really hard
ST-1 is the KV-2 inspired walker from the original version of the event, and might come in it 's USSR/GER/USA variants again.
LBM Bulldog and MBM Trixter briefly appeared in WT 's files in the 2.7.0.55 CDK accidental release event ( 2.7.0.55 new - Album on Imgur ),
and(w/o the modular weapon stations seen in WT 's files) along w/ MBM Victor, were used in Enlisted 's 2023 " TITAN RISE " April Fools event. They’ve remained in the files there for usermission support
The one w/ the M41 Walker Bulldog turret is not the basis of the mech named " Bulldog ", which is actually derived from the M19 GMC. Which is not strictly relevant, but I wanted to make note of it.
