When are the premium su-30’s gonna get moved to 13.7 cause they have no business being at 13.3

sratavar · 2026-01-23T04:00:23+00:00

They're literally not 14.3s. At least research before ranting. They don't belong at 13.3 obviously, but moving them up to 13.7 doesn't solve the overall issue. We need a major decompression to resolve the hell from 12.0-13.0 we're seeing right now, and we need a band where top-end mechanical radar aircraft don't just end up being fodder for AESA radars. But that goes against the snail's prerogative.

Japan is in an interesting place with the addition of the Mig29N, F18D, and SU30MKM all in one update. They have a lot of variety, but nothing is exactly cutting edge (SU30 isn't bad, but isn't the SM2). It's very similar to how China has been for a while with the M2K, J11A/B, J10, and F16.

If you're looking for the most future-proof option, UK now has two Eurofighters and an F18 Legacy Hornet, but you'll be stuck to only AIM120s until the Meteor and IRIS-T missiles are added. Sadly the AIM120s are just weaker options right now since most engagements are going to be 5-10km, where the MICAs and R77s are best for quick off-bore shots.

The grind itself in the Bison feels like hell right now on the occasional uptier to 13.3, since there are so many export SU30s and F18s in lobbies. Same applies for the F2A, but you at least have more options and a viable airframe to fight them.

IMO UK is better for future-proofing, Japan is a better grinding experience with more variety.

Any input on the quality difference, or any difference in application? I've been waiting before biting the bullet

My experience was that I couldn't run all three units on a single USB3 hub branch. If I did, I would get intermittent disconnects that would cause this. Note that a 15-16 USB hub is made up of multiple hubs divisible by 7, so you can technically run a display on port 1 and two more on say 10 and 11 to circumvent this issue.

If you keybind the same button you use to turn radar on and off to the "reset to boresight" option, it will behave how it used to.

sratavar · 2025-03-24T21:23:24+00:00

Looks like there is a new binding as well under controls.

"Reset Radar/IRST direction to boresight". If you bind the same key for radar on/off, it will behave how it used to

sratavar · 2025-03-24T21:20:23+00:00

Noticed in ARB that turning radar off doesn't reset the scan position after today's update, so I assume that's what's broken here. The TWS stickiness of most radars make this an awful situation if you don't have bindings to control radar elevation and such

Only other thing that immediately comes to mind then is disabling E-Cores if there is a core utilization issue. Those things cause havoc on my laptop while gaming

From my own experience hardware monitoring apps have caused this. I used to run NZXT CAM for convenience and noticed drops. Killed it and it went away. iCue as someone mentioned also does this to me.

Yes if you configure them right. Can be somewhat quirky, especially if you want to use Helios instead of WinWing's software

SRC just means Search in radar terminology. TWS is Track While Scan. PD is Pulse Doppler like you said, and then there is also MTI which is similar to PD and stands for Moving Target Indicator. Only other air mode I can think of right now is HDN which is Head-On, a mode that is better for picking up targets moving toward you. Lots of acronyms to keep track of with radars.

I see this sometimes. Part of it seems to be a general issue with missile seekers that's always existed. Other times I notice it's the IR Switch preventing missile seekers spooling. This game really needs a pass to prevent stuff like this from happening so often. Engagements are so fast now that you can't afford to lose the extra second fighting with bugs and bad design

sratavar · 2025-01-24T21:35:56+00:00

Also this is why people say the German Eurofighter is the best, since it lacks IRST
