The AIM-4/26 Falcon - History, Design, Performance & Discussion

That is extremely misleading for in game
its at 40,000ft, subsonic and chances are the bomber lacks an afterburner so two of the greatest generators of heat are now minimised or excluded, the only thing going for it is that its likely a multi engine and large aircraft but without information its not much use

And?
Compare to the AIM-9B launch envelope which can also be side aspect, at even longer range

Thats fair but the lack of info on the target remains so its really still some guesses
Theres a chance it uses a lower micron range so i have no idea on its full aspect ability and its not included in the description of the missile
Edit: Micron band is 3-6 which is similar to most missiles of the era and actually slightly higher and greater width which can cause both greater lock ranges and more clutter but it is the seeker used on RB28 and therefore the swedes and even the initial GAR 4A SMC disagrees with that output
The SMCs clash but the more modern one is usually used which would be the one you used and i did in the first post

AIM-4s have been added to the missile sheet

RIP 27Gs. This missile is rarely going to hit anything outside of high altitude zombies lol
Well, it’ll see its success against the vast majority of 9.3 and 9.7 planes since they don’t have RWRs or CMs.

it should be more and less

I mean it does have a few things going for it on the radar version (if it isn’t changed) over the Aim-26.
Namely, it gets a .5 second guidance delay and a CW seeker instead of a 2 second delay and a Pulse seeker.

4s sustainer on such a small missile looks to be hilarious.

That was only a one-time modification for some testing.

And?

Sounds like a totally valid reason for the test bed aircraft that we are getting for those mounts to be added, given, unlike a number of other vehicles, these mounts existed and worked.

Doesn’t need it and would ruin its great looks.

27gs is plenty wdym. Stingers have 13gs and they hit targets

aim4 would be nice, but your missile should hit within like 7 seconds because then the max g possible reduces drastically, not to mention its slow speed
