Start from aim7d in war thunder, the sparrows all equip with Doppler filter. Therefore, as long as enemy not dodging properly(f pole) and you keep the lock (even on the chaff), the missile still can find the target. Early rader missiles like r3r and aim9c those don't have Doppler filter one tap of chaff is enough to defeat them.

With chaff and flares especially against the better missiles the countermeasures really need to get between you the defender and the missile or enemy plane (for radar) to pull the attention away. In the example in your video he didn't turn so his flares were left behind and you and your missile had an unobstructed path to the plane. Had he been flying more away from you the flares chaff would have been between you both and likely have worked
@ach3909 Жыл бұрын
Not entirely. One match I had an F1C-200 in front of my F-4J at around 2.5km (and he's pulling away) at around 300m altitude. Out of IR missiles and had 2x7F's left. Couldn't get a PD lock so flew even lower to get a lock on normal TRK mode and fired. He dumped flares and chaff, predictably my radar locked onto the chaff(being non PD lock) but unusually the missile still went for him. Really unusual since we were both so low that the radar screen was full of ground clutter fuzz yet it still somehow worked. At that point the chaff was truly between me and him, now I know it's a 7F and not a 7E so maybe the 7F just has better chaff resistance!? (if you can call it that) than a 7E.
@RedTail1-1 Жыл бұрын
That’s just how the Sparrows work. Any SARH missile. So long as your radar is locked onto the chaff after being locked to the aircraft the Sparrow will still go for the aircraft. It’s “Semi” Active Radar Homing. Meaning it works in tandem with your radar but can’t fully track on it’s own. So long as you don’t break the lock the Sparrow will track. Most people don’t know it can do that so as soon as they see chaff locked they break the lock to relock the enemy. It also works with every other SARH missile in the game. R23/24, Skyflash, and the goddamn R27ER that should not have been added to the game yet.

The ability for certain radar missiles to track despite the radar tracking chaff is realistic, most high performance radar missiles have a “speed gate” basically because the missile knows its tracking a moving target, it ignores slow moving returns unless the returns are similar to the plane, think of it like MTI radar, it’s not actually pulse Doppler, but it is functionally similar (in game). Against certain pulse doppler radars, chaff does in fact work, as the enemy jet approaches the notch, chaff becomes more and more effective, because of how the closing rate approaches 0.

Some missiles, like the Aim-7M, Skyflash, Aspide, and several others, have true pulse Doppler compatibly, with their inverse Mono-pulse seekers. As far as I know the seeker type differences aren’t modeled in game yet.

Oh you're talking about radar missiles. I deleted my other comment as I misunderstood and thought you meant lock on missiles in general. Your radar ones don't lock cause you need to use like 3 different keybinds for that. There's one that allows you to switch the radar modes. And one that let's you cycle through the targets displayed on your radar. You gotta cycle to the target you wanna fire at once they've shown on your radar and it will put that little green box around them. Then you still have to "lock air to air missile" on top of that and keep them locked on until the missile hits.
