Rabbisaur Posted December 18, 2019 Posted December 18, 2019 Hi, Does the A2A radar gun sight has a significant delay? Or it is not giving the correct lead. I find even when I stationed the reticle right on top of the target for over 3 seconds, all my rounds still fall short. I find it is much easier to hit without using the radar gun sight. Could developer give some comment on the radar gun sight? The radar gun sight on F-14 from 1980s work so much better than the one on JF-17.

Rabbisaur Posted December 18, 2019 Author Posted December 18, 2019 Thanks, nice to know what is going on. And even better knowing that dev is working on a fix.
AeriaGloria Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Like the Mirage I assume it is lead computing but NOT predictive. Took me a while to figure out you still need some guesswork for deflection or snap or head on shots.

In the attached track I only managed to score a hit at closer range and I hit his right wing while aiming at the fuselage. Also the "doubling" effect on the gunsight can be observed.guns3.trk Hardware: VPForce Rhino, FSSB R3 Ultra, Virpil WarBRD, Hotas Warthog, Winwing F15EX, Slaw Rudder, GVL224 Trio Throttle, Thrustmaster MFDs, Saitek Trim wheel, Trackir 5, Quest Pro

Did you record this track after the OB update? The duplicate gunsights should’ve been fixed IIRC.

Rabbisaur Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 It is pretty hard to believe on such a new aircraft the radar gunsight is significantly worse than the rest of the system on board of JF-17. Computing power is rarely the limiting factor on modern aircraft. Radar gunsight should be really accurate and in real time. M2k may be too old for that. But JF17 can do much better. Even Xiaomi phones can do all the computation of that in real time.
