It Will come the smookeless engine for the aim54C? It had some guidance values changed, i dont know if is it good or not
From 2.29.0.111 → 2.30.0.15 changes:
This means Phoenixes should be harder to notch now, right?
probably I assume it might be related to chaff rejection aswell especially the rate limit
This was a change added for basically ever ARH/SARH missile so we don’t really know yet.
The phoenix has a few listed that others didnt get and the others got
“Guidance table heavily adjusted”
While the Phoenix’s did not. Time will tell.
we will get a smokeless engine for the aim-54C?
Doesnt look like it
This isn’t indicative of Russian bias.
I can say that this is a myth,
snails simply introduce technology and weapons without collecting enough information about them, and then they simply ignore it.
for example from a recent one.
completely unrealistic aim-9m, smoke and resistance to ircm should depend on the missle version, also has better acceleration than the irl missle. because of this she is now close to aim-9x block 1
completely incorrect losat, with a bunch of incorrect things, bugs, and shortcomings. I counted 18 problems.
Artificial nerf to engine power and maneuverability of MIG-29
also nerf r-73, r-27t, r-27et, r24t for “balance”
What nerf are you talking about?
The IRCCM on the R-27(e)T should be different (dual band instead of reduced FOV) but since dual band IRCCM and flares are not implemented it’s not really a nerf to those missile.
I’m talking about missiles leaving on flares at long distances + target acquisition distance.
That’s normal since the IRCCM modeled is the one reducing the FOV. So it’s usefull at close range but useless at longuer range.
If they modeled the rigth IRCCM (Dual Band), the missile would be almost unflarable for older jet that only have single spectral flares but the IRCCM would be useless against the latest plane using dual/multi spectral flares.
But since Dual band and multi-spectral flare are not implemented in game, we’ll have to see.
Unfortunatly all IR missile in game suffers greatly for acquisition range so it’s really a nerf on all of them.
Most small diameter IR missile (9L/9M/Magic 2/ R-73) should be able to lock to 10km+ rear aspect and 5km+ front aspect
The R-27T should have the TGS " Geofizika 36T" seeker with 17km front aspect and 70km rear aspect.
So yeah it’s unfortunate, but the russian missile are not nerfed, all the IR missile are wrongly modeled.
since the IRCCM modeled is the one reducing the FOV.
that is, in essence, they are not modeled at all and are in no way different from missiles of the previous generation.
The iterations in-game use the 36T seeker… Not underperforming afaik.
You sure about that?
I never used the R-27 but saw lot of people complaining that the seeker had a really short range. AT least not the 17km front aspect and 70km rear aspect.
Yeah that what i wanted to say.
We’ll see if WE get upgraded seeker for those missile in the futur
Regarding IRCCM, not underperforming afaik. Need more documentation to prove that.
Otherwise yes… seeker range underperforming according to my report.
If the Aim-54 C and A have basically no difference in-game, can the F-14A get it then?
The F-14A we have in-game is the 1977 SAC model which did not use AIM-54C.
And? The 3D model is that of a much later remanufactured block 130.
This has been reported, devs are aware. The intended model is the 1977 SAC equivalent. The ordnance available to it matches the SAC sheet… which is AIM-9H, AIM-7F, and AIM-54A. This isn’t my opinion or something… it is the previous statement from the devs on the old forum. I can’t be bothered to go dig for it.
Unless they change their minds, that is all we will receive for F-14A.
You never know we might get a Late, to go with the Early model at some point. I just really don’t get why they call it Early then don’t even add it in anything resembling an introductory configuration, it first flew in '72, first combat sorties in '75 and retires in '80~'87 depending on the CSG the squadron was assigned to and we get a '77 of all things.
And it doesn’t even have the option to equipt the IRSTS or TCS for some reason even though in practically all images the fairing should still be there until older airframes begin to be remanufactured.
The main differences outside the 3D model issues (and unimplemented mechanics) for a '75 would be the ALR-23 and losing access to the AIM-9D. an actual block 130 could also have the Bombcat mods that the -14B has access to.
