The radar guidance on the Vikhr needs a buff, and the Kinzhal-S should be added to the Su-39

Yeah SACLOS are generally radio or laser guided

44

but not radar guided

45

RAdio
Detection
And
Ranging

not the same radar guidance like the mmw one

47

Interesting I’ll have to check that

48

if they would be the same they would be affected trough passive systems like MUSS as well

lol no

Oh yeah my bad I forgot that radar on most SACLOS AA guides the sight not the missile.

51

in that regard i am gonna hit you with the same SACLOS (semi-automatic command to line of sight;

52

I was thinking LOS with the radar not a sight.

53

R73s on 29a ? They are historical, yet they can’t be added for “balance”. Warthunder doesnt have a rule on additions ti aircrafts , so why not?

54

Cause there are already 13.x Mig-29s for us to use instead.
There’s no reason to make 9.12 and 9.13 copy-paste.

55

Slaving the gunsight to the radar on the khrizantema is not equal to radar guided missiles

56

You aren’t getting the point.

I don’t have to prove nothing. You are the one objecting the historicity of the feature, so the Onus of the proof is yours. If anything you know less than I do about the vikhr and the Su-39.

Missiles can beam ride the radar waves, one of the versions of the Khrizantema can do that.
The only thing that can be a bug is the fact that you can use datalink to guide vikhrs using the TWS GMTI.

58

What historicity xD u didnt even prove that one yet.
I am asking you to show us its possible in reality with the vikhers. I dont need to prove the opposite that aint how it works

I mean, it would be an unique addition, it wouldn’t be that strong considering you would need to keep your radar pointed at targets + accuracy would suffer because of how radars work i imagine.
But the vikhr has no radar beam riding capability mentioned anywhere, they had to make other versions of the khrizantema to be able to radar beam ride, so where are the vikhr radar beam rider versions if they exist?

Sadly I haven’t had any luck in finding these informations about any capability of radar guidance on the vikhr. Probably they would be in the same places that there is more info about the specs on Kinzhal-S.

61

So much to that, so you have shit and cant prove any of your statements

62

I said it before: the Onus of the proof is yours, you’re the one objecting the historicity of it – claiming it is a bug.
