Yeah, proper modeling might be beyond them, but I would at least want them to try
Don’t think it would be beyond them, just look at the level of modeling we already have. A really high level for what is essentially an arcade simulator (though, the standards for individual models leave a lot to be desired). It simply will not be a priority, as it will take a lot of time and resources, which they seem to not have, and give marginal results (not much will change, especially for casual players).
Nice to dream though, lol

Yeah, it would be, the day where not having flares on the Harrier Gr1 isnt such a big deal would be lovely :D
Report it?
They’re gonna buff the F-117 instead of nerfing the F-5 series
…I mean, they don’t trust the NATOPS over tertiary Russian magazines for the flight model so I don’t know what you expect.

I would, but I have like a dozen or more other bug reports that I want to file. Having the last 4 of the responses to my bug reports being a clear case of reading comprehension skill issue does not help my motivation either, especially when the replies are closed off immideately and everyone insists on just filing a new report.
Also, I just wanted to do a large bug report on IR signatures and their scaling with aspect angles, but that will take a lot more reading and researching. Reporting the F-5 (in this comparative manner) will just lead them to buffing the F-117, unless anyone here has docs that use the F-5/T-38 for IR missile tests.
PS: If I interpreted the figues correctly (I know, I know, don’t rely on datamines), it seems like the only difference between the F-117 and all other jets is that the rear aspect IR multiplier is 0.5 instead of 1, which seems very pessimistic.

Anyone posted this thing yet?
A better project was just the AIM-7 with the IR seeker attached.

Probably, but this one is just funny lookin.
Wasn’t Israel also investing into something like this? I believe it was with an AIM-9G front end but regardless, it would be a fun one to see.
AIM-9L seeker?
Yep, it would actually be a decent counterpart to the R-27T if it were added.

Doesn’t it earlier project based on 7E motor?
It may have been, I do not recall. I do know that there were AIM-7 variants with IR or combined IR + SARH seeker based on the AIM-7P.

I thought it because photo was made before 7F production and 7F is not certified to be suspended under F-4s wing while that AIM-7T was.
The thing I was talking about was post-7F project
Misunderstanding. I thought you were talking about this.
