I think it’s best to not give any acknowledgement to the two offenders and set them to an ignore list. They’re being quite distracting and not reading the thread.
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”
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.
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.
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
