F15c lobby here with so many ed testers (F15c pilots) kindly ask ED to implement this and that happens by their initiative. That is fact. All that "cosmonauts" cry to ED every day becasue their TWS and HOJ not work because they losing lock on looong range (not medium)... they want make kills from 70-100km in that time.
When ED change missiles "a bit" they stop flying at all and i saw some are comeback but now they use F14 and AIM54... (yes they rely only on that looong range shots, that's only bvr for them ;) )
Anyway... ECM on F14 is as should be. F15c and Flankers have fictional feature because some things years ago. I want to say that any ECM blinking above 40km have no impact on BVR. And of course that ECM must be allowed to pilots to use it when they need, not wait 15sec becasue F15c TWS/HOJ opportunity.
