What's up with the long range aa missile on the mirage? It behaves like a laser guided missile when it is fired (how it lines up with the target, almost like it is on an intercept course).

Not a complaint though, on the contrary, looks really cool and i really like using it.

No idea, code-wise it behaves the same way as other AA missiles with just some slightly different settings?

DogACTUAL · 2017-10-06, 18:40

When you launch the mirage long range aa missile, it definitely looks different than the other AAs. I mean the way it flies towards the jet, it does these rapid sideways movements that the jet laser guided missiles do when they are launched on a lase. The way it lines up towards the target.

Humm, the only real difference I can see between the long and short-range missiles is the long range one has "ObjectTemplate.localPredictOnClient 1" in its code, which would change the way the player firing it, sees it?

Any pretension to implement a roland system?

Never seen these on falklands before, damn. It's armed with .50 cal with posibility to change RPM from 450 to 1050, has one step zoom and no thermals. Perhaps Goose Green ALT could feature this?

Unfortunately, the LVTP-7 (the early version of the AAVP7A1) was only used during the initial invasion of the Falklands (which is represented on the Skirmish Alternative layer) and then went back to Argentina before the British Task Force arrived so wouldn't really be right to have them on any other layer/map tbh.

Layer 32 is named Alternative for a reason

It seems to have exact same physics as laser-guided air-to-ground missiles, so it does very steep angled movements instead of the more gentle turns that all other A2A missiles do. Also it has the same smoke trail as AGM-65 etc. A2G missiles.

Question:Is the frigate going to be added in v1.5?
