Yeah we will have to see just how well 65Ds do once it goes live and then base it off of that, will also be interesting to see if US winrates even touch 40% now that they have AMRAAM + the 6x 65D and 2 GBU loadout on the F-16C.
Yep. Thats gunna be hella strong CAP/CAS combo. Especially as both weapons are best employed from the same location

Don’t worry, I’ll be denting them in my CAP role now that I have a strong F-15J to use with TWS and ARH to slap orbital CAS (and harass helis)

I really hope TWS + ARH Can be used vs helis
I tested them with a friend. They work, as long as your radar can pick them up (i.e. they’re not just hovering or moving left/right relative to you). They can multipath you but that also means they can’t shoot at your team being so low. Also they do have MAWS that can dump loads of chaff, but again, if they’re moving and you have a lock, you’ll see through it, both SRC and TWS.
I do recommend locking though because I’m not quite sure when it goes active against such a small target and locking ensures they don’t change locks to chaff or something.

Which is incorrect radar behavior. Helicopters should basically be unable to notch as their rotors give more return to PD radars than anything else

I’m just saying it as it is in game.
We all know helis are modeled very simply and to a certain degree coddled as IR sams struggle to lock onto them.

This is why all f15c should be equal or have diff BR
Only if it costs 200 sp
why can’t I put r-darter on the wingtip pylons?
Because those pylons weren’t modified for that. I couldnt wven find info on how many A-Darters the SAAF gripen C could mount but id assume it was most likely two, four maybe but the out pylons arent made for ARH. The grip E i believe can mount with the 10 missile upgrade for holding more equipment.
it’s just the overly long pylon filled with a short sidewinder is super irksome for me to look at personally, and I’d like to fill it with a longer missile so it doesn’t look as off-putting
Wingtip pylons are IR only
Is anything being done about the abysmal performance of R-Darter?
Beg for AMRAAM
Welcome to Britain. Absolutely no surprise R-Darter is the worse ARH
Eh, who cares you have both gripen and tornado to choose from. Besides wont be long before we get typhoon and the Indian Rafale then we’ll have all three euro canards making two other tt’s redundant lol. Regardless just ask for aim 120 since gripen C can mount them. You’ll probably get quite a few more ARH slingers before December tbh. Maybe we’ll see an Aussie F111 (pls)
Actually I’m not expecting a single.ARH slinger between now and typhoon
Yeah, true, I’m intending to only play the FA2 and F3, but still no surprise that R-Darter is the worse.
