Too add technically they are different missiles using different algorithms and prob different methods to reduce smoke yet the difference is more on the level between a aim120B and aim120A technically different missiles but for war thunder doesn’t model the difference. For what I know about the missiles and what war thunder cares about they both use the 9L Body and base seeker and same theory for irccm and smokeless
“clear marketing lie”.
Aight that’s it folks, OUT with the realism

We never said there was a problem? Just that the missile is not yet in game. It’s still under consideration.

@Smin1080p_WT I have a question about the 90mkIV, why it doesnt have APS and the 40-50mm cannon which is regularized in swedish IFV-s if it gets the 50mm cannon it could easily go up in BR to the level of the hstvl
ah ok, since gajin is aware of the missle and its capabilites etc could u be a quick dear and accept this report for it then
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/ZANmbDZn5Nx8
and would you recommend i make a seperate report for aim 9ms, since they dont need to have been used they only have to work seperately? Since those wouldnt require implementing a new missle.
It’s not going to receive both AIM-9L/i-1 and AIM-9M. That makes no sense as 9M cancels out 9L/I-1. It will be one or the other if it’s added.

yes, but preferably the smokeless ones would be added of course,
and seems like the report got denied on the basis that swedish missles are wong most likely and there is no sources for the smokeless part. So can we expect the RB74(M) to get nerfed ?
It seems like its being handled weirdly

It seems like straight up renaming a missile or copypasting one is harder to do than with entire vehicles ( and then giving accurate loadouts lol)
I guess we learn something every day.
Good morning, @Smin1080p_WT during the stream there were mentions about improving the Rafale Air to Air ordinance, but Magic 2s are being denied in bug reports due to the one in game being the F.3 configuration… Is there any chance Mica-IR is being considered then?
@Smin1080p_WT are there any planes to update the visual model of the PL-8? As of right now it has the model of a PL-8B, the capabilities of a PL-8A and the name of the PL-8.
Here is the current model, it says P8B on the side signifying it’s a PL-8B as well as the clouded seeker.
Here’s what the model should be, the seeker is clear and it says P8A on the side.
I tried to find sources about the seeker color for a more detailed bug report but Chinese seekers and sources are a pain.

that would make me wanna play Dutch ground
MICA-IR is not planned to be introduced for the time being as we have explained.
Would be best to submit via a report and we can pass to the Devs to investigate.

It’s not currently planned for this major as far as I’m aware.
