Do you think we’ll get a DM-73 on 2A7V or 2A7+, which is bound to be in this update. I just understand there is little information on the Dm-83, but you can still find it on the Dm-73, because we need an obps to break through the dz relict. And how do you think the developers will be able to give us 2 tops at once. In the form of 2A7+ and 2A7V in this update. But I think how the upgrade to 2A6 will be (EX), and to 2A5 TWS II or modification of other countries. We must regain balance and comfort for ourselves and our eyes.
You are right, just looking at what is easily available the R-40 has a similar range to the R-27R, and way less than the ER, given that I think it would be interesting to put it at a much lower BR, like 10.7 with just the R-40s and R-60s, it would fill an interesting niche of being an even worse dogfighter than the F-104 but with a PD radar and longer range but not very maneuverable missiles it could fill that early interceptor role quite well, the kind of thing that has good early match impact but if it ends up in a 1 v 3 at the end stands absolutely no chance. Just a thought.
this is exactly why I see the MiG-25P as an event vehicle
from what I’ve heard DM73 had 20% more penetration power than DM63 and DM83 should also have in turn 20% more than 73
but that sounds so much like Sales speech that I wouldn’t call it usable info
MiG-25P is the earlier version without the PD radar, I honestly don’t see them adding it at all, it would be so so bad, basically a pure bomber hunter when there are no strategic bombers past 7.3 really.
When you mention “early” F-15, are you meaning in terms of radar and weapons (so like a gimped MSIP II F-15A), are FULL early (with no CMs as well)
It wouldnt be the first time gaijin retconned flares onto a jet F-5A anyone?
I mean the F-15 as it was when it was first put to service
An F-15 with no countermeasures sounds horrible, it would be too good offensively to be anywhere below 11.3 but too bad defensively to be anywhere above 10.3, like how do you balance that?
maybe f15c
Yeah…
That do be a certified USAF “air superiority aircraft/interceptor” moment
From what I remember, only like one or two squadrons’ worth of F-15A/Bs were upgraded via the MSIP II program in 1985, since the original MSIP I program (dedicated to the A/B models) was cancelled.
Funnily enough, F-15C was the same as the A until 1985 with MSIP II, so no CMs…
Ah, then that would mean a “no Countermeasures” F-15A
So the R-73 was in service before most F-15 were carrying flares, that’s wild
We have era “relict” with settings from booklets of developers. That may work in two sides…
Yep. I think the Israelis had their own program in the early 80s to put CMs on their Eagles, but it may have also been around the same time as MSIP II
Maybe.
Possibly not depending on if Su-27 is superior in internal testing or not.
@someweirdname
Mig-25s are at best 11.0.
Mig-31 for a better one, but even then that’s still 12.0 likely.
well seems like su 27 is a long way away then if those 2 should come first
So where is todays stupid guesses at leaks? i wanna have a laugh at peoples stupid fakes
Missed these two that seems to have slipped into the trees today, as well:
Is this from the F-16 loadout server leak
