My air-to-air missiles for the Type 81 have IRCCM capability, but when I get a lock, the IRCM activates and gives me a ‘guidance corrupted’ warning, preventing me from firing the missiles. **How ridiculous is that?
Probably because it uses same irccm as r73, magic 2 which get defeated by IRCm only aim9m is possible to go through ig
No, I was targeting a Mi-28 helicopter.
Yeah it has ircm
according to the missiles data it uses both fov gating and seeker shut off
only photocontrast mode is not affected by russian DIRCM
Oh okay I didn’t know that. I can’t look it up either. I’m nit hime rn so I had to take a guess
IRCCM only helps against Flares and IRCM Jammers that can be found on the Mi-24s, some Apaches and Cobras etc.
It doesn’t help against DIRCM on the Ka-52 and Mi-28NM.
And Type 81 missiles are optical. I don’t remember Mi-28 being able to fool my eyes either.
Seems more like the automatic mode selection got stuck in IR. It does that sometimes and optical has to be selected individually.
