thats a statcard value that has no impact on performance
Which radar. The rubin? It’s not good in game either…
Meaning they should finally model the different seekers. This will only nerf the 7F.
Not modelled correctly at all, I agree.
bs
r-27e is better than all aim-7s, why does this surprise you.
Zhuk is hardly modern

Sources on the AiM54C being hypersonic??? The only 2 thing I know it had was a replacement of the analogue guidance system with an electronic one and the (not so) smokeless motor
It’s not a hypersonic missile, it’s just near the limit. IIRC the 54C later variants had a better motor
The Rubin is definitely not bad in game, as war thunder air rb is basically the situation the MiG29A was designed for: Take off → full speed towards contested air space that is less than 100km away → have ground radars spot targets for you (in our case we know more or less where they are since we know when and where they take off → lock targets and fire under 40 km → be good in close range fights
The rubin is easy to notch. Range doesn’t matter much in war thunder meta
If the G-pull is still only 17G more speed would only make it even worse anyway.
It’s not so easy to notch, it’s definitely (and rightly so) more resistant than the AWG9 and other longer ranged radars. And yeah, range does not matter, which was the big weakness of the Rubin in real life

Zhuk “Signals” Values (su_n_010m)
APG68v7 “Signals” Values
Spoiler
Looks like 20m/s for the American vs 24m/s for the Russian (Edited because I’m dumb and don’t know my rooski radar designations)
I’m glad more people are doing these satire threads, I didn’t know I’d be able to get such a laugh from a game forum. Y’all should get paid for this!

I know what you are trying to say. But this needs to stop.
The Zhuk is from the late 80s so it is arguably very modern. Modern just means “of the modern era” this is a timeframe from 1500 on to the 20th century.
Historians don’t have a consensus on when it ended exactly, but we do know that it is indeed over.
The discussion is whether it ended with the second world war or with the establishment of the internet (starting the “information age”).
We also do not really know what the current age is called. In practise contemporary age is used.
But we also have names being thrown around.
-information age
-postmodern age
It wrongly used as a synonyme for “current” or “late”, that’s because it was able to be used for such a long time in this sense, since the modern age started after the middle ages and did go on just until recently. So 400 years of using the word that way needs deprogramming now. But that era is over, get used to it.
MODERN
1 a : of, relating to, or characteristic of the present or the immediate past : contemporary
No one is talking about ages or eras.

If a soceity lives in the same age for over 400 years, the name of the age becomes a Synonyme for “current”… i already explained that. Language is a living thing and dictionaries donnote how words are used.
Right until 50years ago it would still be correct… not anymore.
I mean the same dictionary says a “theory” is :
“an unproved assumption”
As you can see here.
Even though the actual meaning of a theory is wuite the opposite (gravity isn’t an unproven assumption is it?)
See the dictionary has it as an unproven assumption because that’s how idiots used the word incorrectly for so long the wrong (i mean it is literally the opposite) definition became accepted. That doesn’t make the theory of gravity an unproven assumption. And it doesn’t make whatever comes after the words “i have a theory…” an actual theory, it’s still just a guess not a theory.
Same with the word modern. Only because people use the words “this is modern” doesn’t mean it actually is.
Fly low and you good.
Is it at realistic that you can break the lock and lock the Target later so that the 27ER can be shot basically as TWS?
Technically. You should be able to fire all missiles without a lock
yes, but the big question is, can the missle Lock the target again afterwards?
The missle has a Mem of 4 seconds, but if you interrupt the lock Manually, the missle is trash, as far as I know
what does the video have to do with my question?
