Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of Mi-28NMs in four-fifths of my games, which are completely immune to Python 5s and derbies. I don’t know how “realistic” this is, but it sucks. (Not even with Spike.)

Same here, I’ve found a way to hit them. Because they are relatively stationary, the Derby seeker has a hard time getting a lock.
What you should do is launch 1 Missile, whichever one you would like, spam LRF, wait 2 sec and fire a Derby. Most of the time they get a little scared and start moving just enough for the 2nd derby missile to lock them. works 80% of the time for me

why doesnt the i derby have better seeker?
There is any bug report on it?

Without data saying what is better, gaijin will not make it better. So just as with many other, the improved will stay the same.

P5 has a contrast mode immune to DIRCM IRL.

IRL helicopters produce giant doppler signature using their rotors, meaning Derby would have no problems locking one. Idk what is the min altitude of Derby, bit it is most likely not the current 60m.

Thats dumb
There ia data saying its better jut not specific stats

Nah doesnt work either with derbys. They literally just sit there launching missiles while being invincibles.

Just saw some bug reports about this modern missiles being blinded by DIRCM. And the bug mods just admits they are overperforming, but they will fix it in the future patches, like we are gonna suffer invincible helis like 1-2 months until it gets nerfed??
