topol-m Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Guys, could someone explain how effective are the radar countermeasure (chaff) in tricking the SARH missiles and ARH missiles? Is there a huge difference in effectiveness agains both types of missiles? Also how well is this situation modelled in LOFC? I`m not 100% but it seems for me that SARH in the game are more willing to go chasing chaff... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Boberro Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 If I good remember there was similar thread but about weird thigs like missing ERs when u were close to enemy and he dumped chaffs. I know one thing - in LO chaffs work on everywhere aspect. This affects on ER effectivity. After patch IMHO it effeciency will goes up - and that is ok. With patched chaffs power and blinker method (when enemy blinked u lost ER -.-) ER will be stronger. Finally :) Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
topol-m Posted June 6, 2009 Author Posted June 6, 2009 ER will be stronger. Finally :) Hope so. But what about reality. Which missiles are more affected by chaff? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
GGTharos Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Yes, SARH in LOFC are much more likely to go chasing chaff. In general, the older the missile, the more affected it will be. In particular non-doppler seekers will be affected at any aspect, while doppler-filtering seekers will only be affected in the beam (currently n/a LOMAC) In reality, the AMRAAM is going to give you a far more difficult time than an ER in terms of countermeasures rejection, but I'm pretty sure you'd fight either one just as hard when your life is on the line ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
A.S Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Sometimes i reall do wonder ...why you waste so much time ..in reality and LO comparsions..... .............. :megalol: Is future worth that? 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
