Automatic white balance disabled due to incorrect colors. Adjusted: PL-5EII performance and warhead. You mean like F18 pilots lofting 120s from 40nm then instantly turning away with 32sec mag ins. The configuration was largely to keep the flutter in check and the remote air-to-air contingency capability was a bonus. AIM-120 AMRAAM seeker fixes and adjustments to be less susceptible to break lock conditions. Aim-120, Aim-7MH, SD-10 produce 0 hit chance against non-manuevering hot target with blinking ECM+chaff resolved Aim-120, Aim-7MH.

Most certainly, the odds of an air-to-air encounter over Iraq were very low. This is the TLDW (Too Long Didn't Watch) for my Fox III Basics Video.To learn how to use the radar more, click here.

Our loadout for Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2004 was all air-to-ground (laser-guided bombs and JDAM), yet look at our wingtips. Edit: Ok so old thrust was 16703N for 8sec, new is 18084 for 6.5sec, but yeah the mass flow rate changed so the thrusts changed.

Going further with regard to the flying characteristics when carrying AIM-120s vs AIM-9 on the tips, the Viper is a beast, and in my opinion, if you're ripping the hell out of it in a BFM encounter, you're not noticing if the roll rate is so many degrees per second slower or faster, you are trusting your skill, and the jet, to maneuver to the control zone of the hostile for the kill.īut it really is more about wing flutter than anything else. The equation iirc is ISP (Thrust)/ (dmg) so a higher ISP would mean either higher thrust or lower mass flow rate for the same thrust. DCS World is the PC simulation environment that the F/A-18C Hornet simulation. Still, it was not anything I specifically recall making a big deal about in any tactics briefing. 120nm 145nm 130nm 100nm+ 220km 270km 240km 180km+ AIM-120 AMRAAM B C C variant has clipped wings for internal carry on the F-22, resulting in slightly lowered manoeuvrability. In which case, having the moment arm of a bit heavier (than an AIM-9) AIM-120 on the wingtips would affect performance. AIM-54 Phoenix A Mk47 A Mk60 C Mk47 C The Mk60 engine offers higher acceleration and speed, and thus lower time on target, but also lower manoeuvrability. In fact, the minimal IAS at intercept for an AIM-7 is about 700 km/h. Naturally, air-to-air missiles are not designed for such low air speeds. This is just a test thought of the autopilot and aerodynamics of the missile. (IRIS-T and PYTHON-5 used with prior permission. The missile's autopilot dampens oscillations more quickly than with autopilot turned off. Specifically, the AIM-9X-2+/AIM-2000 IRIS-T/PYTHON-5 and the AIM-120D.

The AMRAAM is primarily a beyond-visual-range weapon, and would most likely be off-the-rails before entering the merge and turning with an adversary in a within-visual-range dogfight scenario. Updated for DCS Open Beta 2.6 Modern Missiles Mod v1.20 This mod will swap out the AIM-9L / AIM-9X and/or the AIM-120B for more advanced versions of the missiles.
