Ruhrstahl X-4

Its tuned to the doppler shift frequency

Idk lmao I was making a meme more than anything

But in theory if it is tuned to the B-17 engines then nothing but B-17 engines should set it off. Concessions could be made though I guess

Is this even modeled in this game?:

You mean every single aircraft that uses the ¿¿¿(Pratt & Whitney R-1690)??? should set it off…

I mean yes but how many of those are realistically going to be fighting something with an X-4

Idk. Lets see how many aircraft can carry the X-4

Off the top of my head it was an Fw 190 A-5 (I think), the Me 262, and like maybe one more that I can’t remember

But also the whole “just B-17 engines” thing is a meme I have little to no doubt they’re just going to model it as radio proxy similar to the AA.12

I think they’re was a ju-88 too

As for the mechanism…
Who knows?
Gaijin sometimes surprises us

In addition to all the craft mentioned above, there is the Do 335, Ju 388, & perhaps the Ta 183:

Yeah add it right now,

It’s pointless enough as it is trying to use the R4M, Wurfgranate 21cm rockets and terrible velocity 30mm Mk 108s against enemies the Me 262 was never even supposed to face IRL like faster F-84s all with air spawn, an extremely maneuverable 1960s Swedish trainer jet with radio-guided fuse AGMs and 30mm gunpods with 1400 RPM or a freaking F-86 Sabre or MiG-15 for that matter…
