Callsign JoNay Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) Hey guys, Some time between June 2022 and present day, (probably during the Phoenix Overhaul on Sept 2), the AIM-54 became much more susceptible to notching targets. It used to maintain a course and give itself a chance to re-acquire a pitbull after getting notched. In the current open beta the missile starts a pull up maneuver after the first instance of getting notched almost as if to avoid the target. See below a video demonstrating a before and after: I reported this to HeatBlur but they say it's out of their hands. Can ED please take a look at this? This susceptibility to notching targets is the biggest factor involved in the AIM-54's currently poor PK%, more so than the nerfed adjusted kinematics implemented in the recent overhaul.

I don't save tracks all the way back to June, and tracks in the Tomcat are broken anyway. I've demonstrated the issue in the video., that should be enough for their beta testers to go on. If they expect me to take the time to roll back my install to a June version to capture tracks they'll need to put me on the payroll. They should have their own people for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BubiHUN Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Even after HB said aim54 will be back to business, this missile is too trash. HB said they cant do anything, only ED. Any words on this from ED? Anybody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does it do? Target aspect, altitude & speed would also be most useful to know to figure out whether whatever is happening makes sense or not.
