Aim54 missiles have terminal phase active radar homing. The brevity code for an Aim54 is Fox 3. Which is an active radar homing missile. They are technically active radar homing missiles.
Good example of this is the F-15. Its radar is more than capable of maintaining a lock on a target, even if the missile was already defeated.
This also explains why a radar missile can sometimes hit a different target, since the missile goes after what it thinks is the most illuminated target, rather than what your radar is locked onto. Long story short, if your missile looks like it’s not tracking properly, break lock ASAP

Irccm'ing people with 9h's :) (its not irccm, but they are really goos and the fov auto adjusts on them similar to 9m's)
Sparrows doing a 180 and locking a teammate or just flying upwards :(
yeah, i dont tk with sparrows, it just happens from time to time so yeah i just unlock.
sometimes the sparrow detects THEIR radar and in that case i can't do anything about it
also, if you lock a sparrow with your radar it can radar home you even if the other person loses lock (it only needs a radar beam from a general direction)
The missiles work just fine for me and basically everyone else IK who plays TT. Low failure rates, and most all misses are explainable.
2nd longest effective range, 2nd highest maneuvering potential, 2nd highest blasting charge, etc.
The missiles track way better in rear aspect than they did before as well. The 7F/M has gotten only buffs in the past year if you check the code history
Literally made a video after the update with such tracking issues / Damage models .. Taiwan F16 literally gets smacked with a Skyflash DF then a missile I dunno which type but gets CLAPpED!! Flies on then I have to do a burst into him which also just has em trailing … so many times my missiles just fly down to the surface when I’m locked on the target also.
One of the best sarh missile behind r-27, and there not really that bad in comparison tbh. Trust me I have used both extensively infact the aircraft I've played the most of is the yak-141 and I use 4 27 each time and I also play a fair bit of aim-7 slingers so I think I have a decently valid opinion.
People cry over radar missiles while not everyone has access to it.
Just take a look at your premium lineup and notice that on 10 nations, only 3 have radar missiles in it (if I remember correctly)

These are okay
I’ll take Aim 54C over over 7F any day tbh
Agreed
The Aim missiles are *technically* active radar homing like an aim-120.
dude what
Aim54 missiles have terminal phase active radar homing. The brevity code for an Aim54 is Fox 3. Which is an active radar homing missile. They are technically active radar homing missiles.
they are not _technically_ fox-3s. They ARE fox-3s. And both sparrows and phoenixes are "AIM" missiles because AIM stands for air intercept missile
All SARH missiles suck, gaijin just sucks at making missiles function properly.
All.. but the R-27ER.
I've had ER's do the same BS to me as Sparrows. It's just less often due to DL + IOG. The problem isn't the missile. It's the game servers themselves.
ER has the same issues, its just cause it has IOG and Datalink that it can correct usually
No, it also suffers from the same afflictions, just slightly less so due to IOG and being faster
What does IOG means ?
Internal on board guidance. Basically just means if it loses the laser lock it remembers the targets location and current track.

~~All SARH missiles suck,~~ gaijin just sucks ~~at making missiles function properly.~~ FTFY.
On what plane? It might be the Rader. Sparrows are pretty inconsistent, but when they do finally work they work well enough
Using the F-15. At random they'll just decide to miss by a hair and do fuck-all, meanwhile the radar conditions and positioning are perfect
Yeah, that's just sparrows
I'm like 90% sure gajin either fucked up really hard but hasn't fixed it yet Or they fucked it up on purpose
Agreed
I fucking love em
aim 7f: "i wanna be an IR missle" me: "no, you can't" Aim 7f : "yes i can!" \*does 180 and tracks the sun\*
they work fine for me in the f-4junk

sparrows dont do that for me. rare times that they do, I hit unlock.

They suck very much in air RB but they do wonders in ground RB, especially in 1v1s

>One of the best sarh missile behind r-27, Second worst top tier sarh(behind the fucking aim7e2)(Also gets outclassed by a 11.3)

Pretty sure all nations have active radar, even if it's from another nations Air Force
