[@ThePersianKing]

Explains why fighter pilots don't swing their wings when launching anything. in reality, you can also cause jams or misfires. fully stabilize first, fire, then maneuver.

[@productNine]

And/or why missiles meant for dogfighting (such as AIM-9) are launched from rails and not ejectors. Hence why F-35 can't carry them internally and why F-22 has special rail launchers for them (among at least one other possible reason in the Raptor's case).

[@ThePersianKing]

@@productNine True. However, even launching from rails under high enough G forces (positive or negative) can cause problems. So even a rail-launched missile can malfunction if it's being lunched during a hard bank that puts high +/- G forces on it. But I'm not a fighter pilot, just an aerospace engineer, so a pilot or aircraft mechanic might know much more.

[@productNine]

@@ThePersianKing Thanks for the insight. I’m neither a pilot nor an engineer myself, so any information from people in those fields is valued 👍

[@tuunaes]

Not even close to MLRS. (search for "1/13 Raketinheitinpatteri Rovajärvellä" video)

[@immikeurnot]

Yep. The reason for the EX is like he said as a truck, but with F-35s out front doing the targeting and guidance via data link (apparently DCS doesn't let the AIM-120 use data link). It's going to be even more effective once the EX starts carrying the AIM-260.

[@acasualviewer5861]

[@mkdkkdkdkkks]

USAF procures about 400 Amraam a year, US Navy about 200. Enough for about 1 day of combat.

[@ralfhtg1056]

So you got killed by your own missile???? That is screaming for a round 2!

[@thequestline2227]

I can't remember the channel but I saw a retired F-15 pilot react to a GS video. One thing he pointed out was that GS likes to roll, invert, and manoeuver during launches. He said that's not really how he would do things unless he was really under duress, basically even though missiles are SUPPOSED to work under various flight regimes, the best practice is to launch in the most stable configuration to avoid incidents. In this case the missile came off wonky and GS was rolling into it.

[@robbabcock_]

[@andersjjensen]

As Perun once put it "The United States absolutely abhors the notion of a fair fight". 16 AMRAAMs or 10 AMRAAMs and 2 AIM-174Bs is how you spell out "What part of 'No Fly Zone' did you not understand" for those who are a bit slow on the uptake.

You were up against a flock of AMRAAMs with an Eagle attached. At least your last missile did score a kill...

[@georgeleon1263]

I recall seeing an X post by military expert Guy Plopsky where he showed that the Su-35 can be fitted with two-station pylons at least in its ventral bays meaning it can carry more missiles than its standard loadout

[@NEZQ921]

Да, если российские разработчики захотят они могут загрузить су35с не 14 ракетами а 18, но как наблюдается в этом нет необходимости, так как на СВО, су30см, су35с не используют полный комплект вооружений, они используют 2 р37, 2 р77, 2р73, этот комплект используются для патрулирования зоны СВО и сопровождения ударных истребителей!

[@cgilleybsw]

14:50 - I think that was collision mechanics on DCS' part. Missiles do NOT arm unless two things happen: 1) high acceleration is detected (the rocket motor fired) 2) time delay. Has to be collision mechanics.

F15ex vs block 70/72 F16? Two re-modernized monsters of the airspace would be pretty awesome!

[@ARandomCustodian]

I have a feeling it will not go well for the F16 since it can only carry a measly 6 missiles in comparison to the F-15 EX. The F-16 can't keep the F-15 defensive for long enough and once those missiles run out, the F-15 can just push for the kill without any worry about retaliation until eventually the F-16 gets smacked in the face by an AMRAAM well within the MAR.

[@adioprotege]

[@ph2738]

I was thinking about how chaff can’t produce a doppler shift signal to an incoming Fox-3 because it just floats there in the air and flutters downward. How about a missile defense missile? Something that drags a ribbon or screen of mylar in the general direction of the threat. Cheaper because it doesn’t need a radar or guidance system, doesn’t need a munition head. It just needs to fly level and straight, and avoid terrain. It might be considerably lighter, but it would take up a load point. Maybe I should pitch this to Raytheon, and get a job there.

[@indycustommade3568]
