Wheres the ECM POD Gaijin

I don’t think they do although I have not played them cause I have killed loads of them with PL5B. But even if they do, surprise surprise who is the only one that got it modelled? Ka52.

Weird of you to make false statements…
Unless you mean as part of the damage model and are claiming Ka-52 is “nerfed” compared to the other vehicles.

Yes but I have 0 trouble locking onto AH64s whilst Ka 52 is just a load of trouble (non irccm)
I haven’t killed that many Ka 52s just by virtue of them having 9M127 and outranges me.

AH64A/Ds don’t have IRCM IRL or in-game.
On top of that, HRSS does not function in-game at all at this time.

I know HRSS doesn’t work but it’s just the fact that it is pretty much the only one that really does have IRCM modelled except the other Russian planes (Su25s)

Having it on the damage model doesn’t mean anything other than it can be damaged.
AH-1W, Mi-24P, Ka-52, OH-58D, MH-60, AH-129D, AH-60… are some of the aircraft with IRCM; just most don’t have them as part of the damage model.

Is that so?

Explain to me what this is then

All three of US Apaches have that in game as well

No tail number to determine which Apache that was.
You also have to remember that 1- I always speak about base models, and 2- Apache models have blocks and modifications.

“95037” or “…87”

The point is
IRL, Apache has the ALQ-144 IRCM (nicknamed the “Hot Brick”)
Above one should be AH-64D albeit without the Longbow radar

All three Apaches have the ALQ-144 in game, you can check

Oh and this point is kind of moot, especially when you have F-14A and F-4E being mashups of few different blocks

I also believe the D has IRCM (it’s on the model by default), just that it is locked behind the flares/chaff modification. Though I’ve only heard that secondhand from my friends, so I’m not sure if it’s entirely true.

Fair enough. Haven’t flown my Peten outside heli PVE in years.

i thought the HRSS was the reason we couldnt target helis with stingers from over 3k.

The apaches definitely have working IRCM in game, it’s just less effective than the Russian DIRCM, due to it being much older.

Having HIRSS/HRSS [whichever the abbreviation is] does not change lock range currently.

helicopters can’t be locked over 3-4k by stingers.

Me failing to lock a heli with the type 81 (11.3) at 2km while using optical tracking

You aren’t looking hard enough! LOOK HARDER

I wish i could hug whoever made the type 81 and all stinger vehicles fail to lock a heli from 2km away. Because they clearly arent loved and im here to help them feel better.

dont forget the stingers missing its 22g turn ability.
