why can’t i switch into this cam view full screen? 11b
also why is the irst so bad compared to j11
Because it’s the same abysmal irst as the one on the Mig29

They fucked up the copy pasting job. Instead of taking code snippets from the N001 radar, they took it from N019 or N010, presumably because the rest of the radar is based on it. A similar thing happened with the Su-30. It has the older version (by about a year) of the OLS-27 code and thus has the old bugs (worse range, slightly different scan pattern, etc.).

can’t someone just bug report it should be identical to j-11 then?
Nope cause we can’t prove that…
Yep. They originally did copy the entire thing off N001, as a placeholder, and then they took the F15E radar’s stats.
Left over of the placeholder since they likely copied it off (made the placeholder) prior to the fix.

I tried, it got immediately closed before I could even edit as not enough info (I saved/posted it and was still editing it to avoid accidentally deleting everything). I managed to get it reopened (Gunjob helped), but by the time I did the frustration from having two reports closed on you while you edit them killed all steam.
The issue is that they want concrete evidence of the performance of the IRST to correct the stats they already implemented without actually using any themselves (it was a copy-pasting issue, after all). It is natural that one would implement the J-11B’s IRST to be the same as the Su-27SK’s when they have no info on it and the plane is an upgrade of the SK. However, that does not pass with them. If a more sympathetic tech mod reads the bug report then it will, so if you know anyone like, please tell me.
Also, filing 4 reports on the OLS-27’s significant under-performance and being told time and time again that it is fixed (it is not) does not do wonders to my motivation either. Frankly, most IRSTs are under-performing, especially in afterburner plume detection ranges.
Rant over.

Yup, from the N001 (or its other versions).
Can you link the report? I bet if it gets enough attention it’ll be fixed

This is the first one, my profile has the second one, but I have not finished it yet.

Here it is.
Don’t know if it will be enough for now, tell me if you want to add anything to it. Anybody have info on the Su-30SM’s or J-11B’s IRST? A manufacturer’s website or even a news article without any stats will do (just to show that is is the same or upgraded from the OLS-27).
Also, any tech mods that specifically deal with Chinese Air bug reports?

you should maybe also mention what ammount of CMs you brought

you right, added
the Su-30 does
the J-11B dosent
yk what irst the 11b uses?
