Su-30SM balancing, implementation of the AIM-9X

it doesnt have an imaging seekerhead, but that doesnt matter for wt because all iir missiles are modeled with gatewidth + seekershut off anyways. And in game it would be probably the fourth best iir missile, only behind asraam, mica ir/ng and on par with pl-10, while sitll being better than stuff like asraam in min range (also has 360 degree firing envelope but so do most missiles anyways)7

pl10 would be better

eh who knows, pl-10 looks to be fairly similar to mica ir, which is why i said it would be on par/similar to pl-10 as pl-10 seems to be a slightly worse mica essentially.

pl-10 has 3.5 s burn and 95 kn/s impulse, fairly similar to mica ir 3.5 sc burn and 98 kn/s impulse if i remember right

It would be a solid 143.

do all IIR missiles have DL ?

No

MICA EM and MICA IR share the exact same motor.

Yep, though the IR drags more so it has less range

still should be second longest range ir missile

Second? Which one is first?

ASRAAM probably

(this is a sentance)

My 10 seconds googling told me the asraam has a range of 18 km, that doesn’t really seem to be more than the 60 km usually stated for the mica ir.
Could be wrong though, after all this is from a very quick searching

R27et

And it can still get a better seeker which is crazy as well

Oh right forgot that thing is ir

Can we get IRIS-T?

new gen IR missiles will probably be the next meta, so I’d say it would be better to first “finish” this meta before adding those. But once everyone gets their fair part of this meta then sure, IRIS-T and others missiles of this class are the next step

It’s gonna be so ass

Iris t? Yeah it’s gonna be ass if it’s modeled the exact same like it is rn on the Swedish Sam
