There are no ERs there, its just Rs and AIM-7Ms, my mistake.

So I actually took the time to look at the track, and geez, does it not occur to you the WCS gives LA for a reason? Stop firing ETs OUTSIDE of seeker range. Quit overriding the LA. Its not done in the real jet. Of course it flys straight ahead at launch. THE SEEKER SEES NOTHING. It turns towards the target when it DOES get in seeker range, and follows PN as it should. Stop spreading misinformation.

Yup, reactive defending is dead at decent alts now if the bandit takes the shot properly, you HAVE to pre-emptively defend. Though using avaliable tools to determine when he launched does help SA, and for better RMD

Did you launch using the manual LA override?

So I checked and it turns out the mission was 1984, but regardless I dont think he fears the S530, the ER is far deadlier

Pepin, the big initial turn in DUE to PN. PN CAUSES it. Nobody claims the ET has zero PN.

FWIW tax is a flanker pilot in DCS, so this isnt a case of "F Pilots" pepin. You need to be more descriptive, else as far as ED is concerned theres nothing to change.

Afaik this isnt a bug, but I'm not 100% certain

Yep. If you look at blueflag its the same. 1.17 KD for JF, while F-16 is at 1.3, and F-18 is at 1.45. F-14 is at 2.2 (!). So yea in no way is the JF OP

The ET uses PN rn pepin. Pure PN causes that big initial turn, which is why you have upgraded versions like APN, or a variable PN constant.

Im 99% sure he is going for a specific time period with this server, not for balance, I know the guy and the server. The super was not in service in 1981/83 (forgot which the server was for exactly), but no this isnt for balance. Which is why the 14s have AIM-54s, but no ERs for the flankers.

I found a copy of the one for the R a while ago but its really low res. Anyone have a higher res version?

No im not denying that it was upgraded in some way, but for all we know it could have just been a PN constant tweak, thats certainly an PN upgrade if its tuned better, and improves efficiency. My question is what do you want ED to do?

So if we dont know what was upgraded, why are we insisting ED upgrade it? They literally have no idea what to do.

Can you tell us what updated PN is? Or do you legit not know?

I thought i recall reading one source that listed the MiG-21 having a head on RCS of 10 m^2, which would reasonably allow the JF-17 to be at 3m^2 (which sounds reasonable) and still be less than the MiG-21

What was updated in this porportional navigation? Can you give us insight since you know what it is?

Yea I dont see how a FF F-15C would be low-demand at all.

Just to back up what GG said:

Im still curious pepin, what exactly do you want from this upgraded PN?

I agree its one of the better PvP servers out there. Shame the numbers of players on it have been low-ish over the past few weeks.

Can you post a track/tacview of this "simple defeat"?

What Cmptohcah is saying is only true above max STR speed. Below that, slower speed = lower sustained turn rate. Same for ITR and ITR corner.

Afaik this "pure pursuit" is a psuedo-datalink that really shouldnt be there, but it is anyway. Its telling the missile, at launch, where to look for the target, but it doesnt take into account where its moving, just where the target was at launch.

Can comfirm, and it only seems to happen in MP. It doesnt happen in SP. If someone from ED would look through this track you will find that AMRAAMs that showed as being notched from the server-side AND client-side in fact hit me, and were actually not notched. In fact, in a track that is too large to link, I visually confirmed that the missile turned away from me from the smoke trail, and was flying BEHIND me, yet I still blew up. This also shows up in the tacview, which I can link for anyone interested. Can someone from ED comment on this?
