yak130 doesn’t even have countermeasures to decoy the chaparral’s missiles which is at lower BR

Milan doesn’t have them either. Where’s my Nord 30L?
When it can actually use them
That’s a relatively mote point in a discussion about a 9.3 plane.
And my Type 93 actually hits things now! (sometimes… If I pray hard enough to the Omnissiah)
48 more hours and it will turn 11g!!
I wasn’t the first to bring up the 9.3+ plane in the discussion.
I must have missed that part, it’s been moving very fast, my apologies if I missed the context of you comment.
Very convenient! To bring a 1996 plane into the 1970’s party.
Its a flight trainer, dates are irrelevant
It seems they’re doing it on purpose.
What kind of argument is this? :D

There’s a lot of hidden model stuff, added “just in case” its ever needed.
If they ever want to add a Belarus Yak-130, event/squadron/premium/etc, the model with countermeasures is there in the files
Otherwise, the Ru model can’t use them anyway, so they’re hidden
Only thing that matters for BR’s is capabilities, not service dates
Exactly! The plane with more capabilities than other planes in the BR should not be in that BR.
Nope, weaker attacker capabilities than other 9.3’s like the A-4E’s, much weaker than 9.7’s like the Hunter
There are SPAAGS with both VT and AHEAD rounds at 9.0, lacking an RWR is a MASSIVE disadvantage as the only way to know they are targeting you is the RWR.

RWR works only if SPAA uses radar. If I shoot IR missile or just guide SACLOS Roland - it wouldn’t matter.
AHEAD requires radar lock (or IRST but said SPAAGS do not have it) to set the range for the rounds to detonate. both AHEAD and VT are more accurate using the lead indicator the radar provides.
I am referring specifically to the PGZ09 and M247, both of which are lethal and only alert you that they are engaging via RWR, sure the M247 can still proxy fuse (unlike the PGZ) without using its radar, but that drastically reduces it’s accuracy.
SACLOS guidance SAM’s can still trigger RWR, even firing with the radars off, the guidance signal is broadcast by the tracking radar.
There’s still the big smoke trail to spot anyway, but regardless
nah they need to add these vehicles in their entirety or not add them at all and decompress the brs
Nah, leaving out the R-73’s is perfectly fine, the Yak-130M will get them
