Depending, either a slight buff or a big nerf.
they were literally broken
So is CLAWS but i dont see fix for it?
whats wrong with claws?
Is there a bug report for it or something? Or is this some artistic freedom decision again?
Theres literally 5 bug reports accepted for it 5 months ago
It’s just another nerf with no explanation and no reason behind it.
The lock range of the seeker should be up to 25km since according to Saab the lock range match the max range of the IRIS-T.

They think it’s another marketing lie XD

The only thing i could think of is that Gaijin somehow found a source on the ballistic cap that the IRIS T SLM has over its seeker, which gets blown away for the terminal approach but 4km sounds insanely low for a 2022 IR missile
may or may not be a variable thing
No, guys, you don’t understand. That’s like a massive damn nerf. See, now ALL kh-38 slinging trash will be able to just escape with ez, while leaving you 6 quickly approaching presents. You still can’t kill mi-28. And your radar sucks as well, that’s iris-t’s death pretty much. Mind you it’s one of the slowest top tier spaa missiles.
Germany now doesn’t have neither working cas, neither working SPAA. Very nice.
Well in the game rn the missile will lost their memory once enemy disappear from radar too, and when the enemy appear on the radar again the missile will be like “nah definately not my target from before” then decided to use IOG until end or hit the ground. And push the player to launch other missile and enemy keep repeating this strategy until you lost entire your missile to thin air. This missile wont work like how it should be until they fix the radar behavior (Look-forward and look-back) and this missile amnesia issue.
The ballistic cap is jettisoned at the optimal distance/range to the target for maximum aerodynamics but I still don’t truly grasp what the change is all about, it seems to me that the lR lock range now kicks in at 4km instead of 10? Either way, this thing is still seriously underperforming.
I’ve had enough of top tier, the game feels like it’s held together with duct tape and gum and I can’t go a game without encountering bugs and glitches that break half the game and ruin the experience. The game just can’t cope with the complexity of modern equipment.

Pretty much a hit on the nail.
Yeah I know, the ballistic cap is just the only reason I could think of why a 2022 Ir missile should have a worse seeker than a stinger
Seems like some sikrit dokumints pulled up
Yeah seems like it. I guess someone didn’t like that there was an actual threat for his CAS
im still convinced that they’re trying to make it more reliant on the radar and this is a game limitation but this is
1 - just a bad way of doing it
and mroe importantly
2 - absolutely horrendous because the radar tracking is so bad
