Any news about active/passive defense measures of tanks in BS??

[chucklin]

After looking a bunch of tanks scrrenshot be released recently ,

beside those high LOD what somthing new will be added?

 

We all see those smoke generator modeled one by one and so is reactive armor but who know if it function.

How thirst I am for looking 'Smoke screen' from tank will interfere my Air to Ground missle.

 

However it the improvment on model would be in vain if the reaction of tanks we are attacking is idiot the same as 1.2 .

 

My native language isnt eng,plz inform me if there is any wrong grammer or use.:)

It will interfere with your kh-25ML, the Vikhr won't be affected by smoke screens, maybe those laser jammers, but it has to be a powerful one, directional and stuff, like, high tech even by todays standards, and the game is set in a 1994-alternate universe timeframe.

[Pilotasso]

But arent those 2 missile systems using the same type of guidance?

[GGTharos]

Nope... in fact, FF has it wrong.

The 25ML will be *directly* affected, and the Vikhr will be *indirectly* affected as the smoke screen would cause the SHKVAL to cease tracking.

[Force_Feedback]

But I was talking about the guidance, who needs teh Shkval? Or is it impossible to guide a missile without that stupid CTR screeen? Can't we just designate some point, and the Vikhr will fly there, without any TV gizmos?

 

BTW, I think the pilots ought to have little pointy beards and behave even more evil than Bender :lol:

 

And we need a torture booth with a Sidewinder sticking out through the top :P

[GGTharos]

And how are you going to aim the laser beam? The Vikhr is a beam-rider.

[Weta43]

If rather than locking onto the target object using contrast & tracking it, you just stabalise the laser inertially somewhere close (which is what happens before the 'lock') and then steer it manually to hold it over the target (like chasing a moving vehicle with the laser in an SU25 - but through the imaging system), you could still steer the vikhr in on its beam...

[Alfa_Kilo]

Someone should add a mm radar to the plane, as well as the missiles, like the longbow system in AH-64Ds.

The Su-39 (-25TM) can carry a belly pod with Kopyo-25 radar, but I dont know how useful this is against mobile ground targets......my understanding of electronics is very poor.

[Weta43]

Gyro stab works great, as long as your target isn't moving

 

with a bit of practice you can just keep moving the box on with the moving target - or jump slightly ahead, wait, jump, etc - keeping close enough that the blast still does the deed.

At least that's what I do with the vanilla 25 against moving targets - Also - if they're moving that fast won't they drive out of their own smoke?

Here's (my, at least) most recent answer to the same question:

Thats using the 25ML though. The Vihkir is spin stabalized, once you move that cursor, since it moves faster than the tracking, the missile starts flying wide.

[Weta43]

If you can lock on one target, launch one Vihkir, then launch another while that one is in the air & after the first one hits swap to another target, lock, & have the missile already in the air hit the second target - which you certainly can in game & apparently should be able to do in real life - you can pan as I suggested.

[Weta43]

You've played it & I haven't, but if the lock can follow a car doing 70km/h I'd have thought the missile could follow the beam if you moved it in little steps?

[GGTharos]

Yep, it will. I'm not sure how successful you would be firing several missiles though - the laser's operation is automatically counted down. I think it's possible to manually set it 'on' so it emits as long as you want it to, but that isn't healthy for the laser.
