Yeah pretty sure Rafaels website for the Derby ER says it has satellite assisted guidance
I can only find 2 way DL. Can you post the link/image?
Can we just find source that Rafael have claim derby er have better seeker capability than derby, therefore in game there should be some difference.
?
Bud u are late to the party by 2 years
The i in the i derby /sr/er is for the better seeker
We have been through this a few times already u are more then welcome to do a quich search
If u want there is the i derby er page that says it has better eccm
https://www.rafael.co.il/system/i-derby-er/
Tbf even the normal derby has eccm that isnt implemented in the game
Did you enjoy saying good bye to that ability lol
I haven’t start playing the game seriously that time…
Yea I know. Its kind of sad, gaijin is very inconsistent on seeker capability.

Rather, they are consistent with preserving current status quo, as all seekers have the same notch window.
You could do some mental gymnastics and link “improved ECCM” with chaff rejection (narrower seeker FoV, tweaked angle gating values) given chaff is earliest form of ECM, but it will be just that, mental gymnastics to warrant some buffs based on vague quote.
Then it will open flood gates, every other modern-ish seeker also likely would get this treatment and Derpys would relatively return back to square one.
SAMP-T somehow have 95 degrees of elevation, french are simply built different. Then ESA is limited to track radar only, no SAM have ESA search radar in game. New Panties SAM seemingly is crippled by its own missile fusing system - no proximity fuse, relies on tracking radar to give command to detonate, then missile sends shrapnel in a cone instead usual sphere akin to AHEAD rounds. That or score direct hit for contact fuse.
Chaff, by definiton, is not an ECM.
It is a device intended to trick/interfere with electronic systems of radar variety, just like flare is intended to be infrared decoy.
Yea i dont blame u im just saying we allready cover this
There is also a suggestion for air i derby er u can look into
That’s not a description of an ECM.
Derby cant hit a high flying Mi-28NM but other ARH spaas can?
LD"IR"CM by the way
Ingame should be called LD-ARH-IIR-CM
No? Isn’t some missiles like mica got 7 degree of notch window, bukm3 got 3.5 degree notch window? Especially air to air mica is the only missile with 7 degree of half angle sensitivity.
Anti-everythingIRCM, gotta love that blades don’t return any doppler signals.

7 degrees is seeker FoV, its not the same as notch window which so far remain consistent at +40m/s to -100m/s
Think of gatewidth IRCCM (R-73, Magic 2) but applied to radar, while angle gating acts like tracking suspension.
Since a smaller FoV still makes notching harder I will count that as a better seeker capability.
Notch window remains the same. What changes is demand for chaff, as missiles with narrower FoV any released chaff leaves seeker FoV sooner → missile resumes tracking sooner, assuming angle gating triggered correctly.
Pair that with average MICA being launched in your forehead within 10-15km, while missile itself has very high acceleration off the rail and is carried by one of the quickest airframes in game and you get perfect meta statstick to spook you before you get to defeat it properly.
Why only MICA gets to use it as far as AAMs are concerned, thats snail grade question.
the spyder still sucks to me
