OziRekt Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Now we all have had some time, what is everyone's thoughts on the SD-10 post-launch? Has there been a nerf? How does it compare to the AIM-120C? "We carried out many trials to try to find the answer to the fast, low-level intruder, but there is no adequate defense." — Air Vice-Marshal J. E.

razorseal Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 some time? we haven't even had a day with the module yet LOL. rumor is, it's been nerfed. will take some time testing it. similar performance compared to 120C now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrorban Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The missile has airbrakes now. It is funny how after the first burn stage, it just loses energy really fast and plops down like cartoon. I guess the pressure from the mob really scared Deka. Even after fix, I am certain that they will make it less capable than the current AIM-120 which even ED say need improvement. So much for simulation.

People have tested the release version versus what was included in the previous OB, it performs the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for simulation. no changes. what does public think has nothing to do with how they should and are making the SD10. period.

shaHeen-1 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The mods messed up on that first useless SD10 thread. They should have stepped in way earlier. Now ppl are confused and suspicious for no good reason. Bluebois are pissed cuz they don't want to ever play as an underdog. Redbois are pissed cuz they wanted to slap bluebois with a new fancy module for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowFrost Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 People have tested the release version versus what was included in the previous OB, it performs the same. Can confirm down low at 5000 feet mach .83 it was matching previous numbers. Have not tested any other ranges though. But everything looks similar at first glance.

Nothing has changed, according to my tests it performs pretty much identical to what we have seen before release. i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

LF_Luftmanu Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The missile performs as we have seen. Now we just need an improved 120 wich is already on the works and we can really enjoy BVR :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarksydeRob Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 It gets trashed pretty easily. They said its between a 77 and a 120 but its worse than a 77 tracking wise. Energy wise yeah its good. Its CCM in the lua got buffed , this includes the PL-12. It was: PL-12: 0.15 SD-10 : 0.17 now its PL-12: 0.115 SD-10 : 0.14 However its got some of the new guidance and does some nice fancy stuff , pulling 30 Gs off the rail to get on target if you fire near gimbal and such.

Redbois are pissed cuz they wanted to slap bluebois with a new fancy module for once. This... 100% this... so much... while I'm just sitting over here wishing ED would ACTUALLY look at the data presented to them about drag and all the missiles since the "missile mod" team did a crap load of research 3-4 years ago. They completely ignored all of it... I just want reasonably accurate modeling of the missile external balistics. I'm really hoping the new missile API improves the logic behind both the physics and guidance for the 120 and R-27's as well as the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
