The missile was launched at 10 km, and after the 8 km power stage, the speed dropped very quickly. The su33 in the video made a large angle turn, causing the aircraft to have no energy and no maneuvering, so the missile could hit successfully

Currently, the performance of the FB10A in the game is truly abysmal. With low-G tolerance, slow speed, and being effortlessly outrun by top-tier aircraft, it also lacks imaging guidance—a feature even the much lower-tier Strela-10M possesses. It’s shocking that a top-tier anti-air missile fails to effectively counter drones. Currently, this missile can’t even effectively engage targets within 10km, rendering its effective range far below its claimed 17km in-game. Furthermore, despite its 160mm warhead diameter, it carries a dismal payload of just 1.2kg of explosives.

No radio command control, no declared speed, no range, no overload. This anti-aircraft gun can do nothing against helicopters. Capture starts from 4-5 kilometers depending on the type of helicopter. The Orion drone was captured only at 3 kilometers and this is for 12.0 brothers!!! 🤭

another view on the energy maintenance of the FB10A vs AIM 120C7
The only way I found to shoot down high-altitude aircraft is to launch 2 to 3 missiles. The first 2 will force the aircraft to maneuver to dodge the missile, which will cause a loss of energy, thanks to which the 3rd missile will be able to shoot down the aircraft. But of course, the FB10A remains very underperforming compared to reality.

The performance of CS/SA5 in war thunder is far below what a 12.0 BR should be. Chinese vehicles developed by war thunder consistently underperform in terms of capabilities.

crazy how the correct research gives correct data. if only the bug report devs would accept something like this

From testing, the FB-10 rocket motors burns out at 4500m and the FB-10A at 7500m, coincidentaly the data of max altitude of these missiles are also 4500m and 7500m respectively…

The FB-10A is absolutely abysmal It’s can’t lock a drone (MQ9)>3km
It’s clear as day that the FB-10A has dual mode guidance, you can’t make an IR missiles of this class without it.
All available material mentions “IR staring” so it uses a FPA or “staring array” sensor and “update command” which sounds like Datalink.
And then there’s the fact that Gaijin gave it 8 DL channels which does nothing

Reporting DL is imo the most important thing atm.
We just need to somehow proof what “update command” really means, since that is what gaijin hides behind to not change anything.
I dont know how to proof that and for westerners like myself it is quite difficult to find anything(I tried).
My theory is that Gaijin simply haven’t finished or even started making the “real” FB-10A since they launched the vehicle without even having a model for the FB-10A.
The summer update is usually a mess since alot of the Devs will be on summer vacation

lets hope so
A domestic Chinese vehicle being poorly modelled, underpowered, and completely unrepresentative of its real life historical capability? Heavens.
At this point it’s fairly obvious gaijin has some kind of vendetta against the nation/tree. It’s way too common of a pattern to ignore.

I will get this car, but I will definitely not play on it. The ПАНЦИРЬ is still better, despite the fact that little remains of its original power.
Either lower CS/SA5 to below 12.0, or accept player submitted data to fix FB-10 to its true capabilities. Stop arrogant.

Also, some potentially useful info from a 2021 paper testing SHORAD missile frag warheads: While we can’t confirm if the tested warhead relates to the FB-10 missile, the dimensions do match closely (both 5in diameter). Relevant stats for tentative reference: Total mass 8kg, explosive filler 3.2kg, kill radius 6 meters

it’s more possible to be PL-5’s
but considering that RAM shares warhead with AIM-9, I guess FB-10A too

i agree
Still no fix?
did u post it in the issue?
