I predict that gaijin might ready 5th generation infrared Air-to-Air Missile for attack aircraft & tactical strike aircraft top tier in the first major update 2025.
And 5th generation infrared Air-to-Air Missile on fighter aircraft top tier for second or third major update after decompression battle rating to 14.3
There’s nothing to suggest that and even if there was, it would still be an enormous mistake. Current IRCCM missiles are difficult enough to defeat once they’re off the rail, anything more modern would be an order of magnitude more difficult. There’s no reason to add more advanced weapons right now and if they want “balance” to exist at all. The only thing I could see being added is the R77-1 for Russia to give them a very slight increase in ranged performance over the base R77.
Most are pretty straight forward to evade. Only bothersome one is 9M and that’s purely on account of sod all warning. Though the sod all warning could just be a network issue on account of playing from Aus.
Would depend on how they modeled the countermeasures tbch. For BOL, if it were modeled correctly, defeating advanced IR missiles should be relatively straight forward. Not too much more tedious than current IR threats. But it would require an overhaul of IR stuff.
I might believe sometime 2025 gaijin could add 5th gen IR missile for attack aircraft & tactical strike aircraft top tier (not all) before fighter aircraft top tier
Sorry might off-topic thread, but at present MiG-29SMT 9-19 only carry R-77-1
I don’t mind MiG-29SMT 9-19 battle rating up to 14.0 if received R-77-1
Personally, I think R-77-1/RVV-SD for russian 4th & 4.5 gen fighter aircraft battle rating at 14.0 and higher
Pretty sure most folk realised this.
I had a suspicion but I can’t access the dev server so I had no way to confirm it so had to rely on others
called it
I can confirm his saying MICA files did not got touched during dev servers it’s just that the servers lag less du to less player load so more stability for the MICA. If we wanted to get wobbling issues out of our way we’d literally have to ask for servers with more bitrate and i doubt gaijin would buy new servers for 1 missile LMAO.
But yeah now this thread should re-activate as we need to find a way to make the devs fix MICA as fast as possible.
Its simple… reduce its diameter, drag and make it actually viable at bvr ranges - stated 80km range. Not where it detonates after 50km. Or they should just create some exemption for mica where as long as its launched above certain range, lets say 10km, it wont activate TVC and will act as regular missile so it wont wobble around as crazy. Just have two spawns (afaik if you launch missile, it literally spawns) for mica - one TVC, one non TVC, spawn non TVC if launch is over 10km.
and i doubt gaijin would buy new servers for 1 missile LMAO.
not for 1 missile really, every missile with thrust vectoring has wobbling issues on live, mica, r77, r73, sraam, and even if they would want to add more modern stuff like asraam or 9X, they will suffer same issue.
its just that different missiles have different levels of the “wobbling” afaik
There’s a LOT more reasons we are in need of better servers
So, with fixed rafales radar, we actually have pretty damn decent BVR platform.
Issue is, missile is literally incapable of this.
I dont understand why amraam gets its supposed range, PL12 aint that far, Darter/derby close to their supposed performance and then there is R77 and Mica… R77 rtechnically will hit over 50km and mica? It cant even pass that range, let alone have decent kinematics at it. Its nez up high is 1/3 of amraam.
Since when did r77 have TVC
It doesn’t but if they’d properly model the grid fins it would handle similar angle of attack without problems.
I talk about range, not TVC.
interesting french players say mica no work corectly… explain me in enemy team is french nation all maches lose but the mica is so bad… really mica neeed nerf… soo
I’m not sure to understand, so you are saying that every french mains whine about mica but in air rafale/m2k5f in the ennemy teams bring them the win ?
Your skill issue is speaking louder than you are
