The AIM-54 Phoenix missile - Technology, History and Performance

yeah even at mach1.6 11km+ altitudes it just enough to reach mach4, then quickly losing speed once the burn time is over. The ECCM too weak to track.

Maybe, I can think of a few things but half of it is not doable.

Gaijin must hand over this document to the playerbase. I’ve looked all morning and can’t find any hint of what this came from:
IMG_4536

It was used in response to this bugreport, as usual with no context.

OK so… They modeled from Mk.47 data but, didn’t add low smoke motor?

That’s really bruh

It may warrant a BR increase, though.

thats mod 0. what you were thinking about is mod.

i did the shot from this image in game to see what it would be like in game

the expected result was 134.3km travelled distance and i got 138.5km, so i guess war thunder’s aim-54 is accurate for this shot (a difference of only 3.12% for distance travelled), i can’t check the maximum altitude the missile achieved in game. i made sure that the bot and me were flying in the correct speed and altitude.

IIRC If you pause the replay and fly the free cam to the position of the missile and take a screenshot you should be able to extract the X, Y, Z co-ordinates of the camera from the screenshot metadata. It’s a bit of a convoluted method but it can be used to give a rough idea of how high the missile goes.

that’s cool, i had no idea screenshots had all that info. the maximum altitude was around 29452m, it was supposed to reach around 31546m
