I wish we could have realistic RWR sound as well
I submitted this as a request during the community survey, I even went as far as requesting to add individual plane noises such as the mig 21s missile lock tone vs the sidewinder tone in the f14 or f16. I really hope they implement this in the future
If you are playing on PC you can download sound mods from live warthunder
@@bpop2148 Yeah i know but for some planes there are no sound mods
It literally sounds like McDonald's rn 😂
@@bpop2148yeah but it would be nice to not need a mod at all
I'm a Telecom Engineer, and I work on compliance/testing of radio devices like RADARs.
The explaination of how sidelobes work, the unwanted reflections by the ground, the separarion in bands...
dude, taking into account that WT is a videogame, this is perfect!!!!!
Now we need antiradar missiles in game to lock on to AA

The multiple guides and videos from other people were already great but this is very helpful, and quite entertaining so thanks a lot Gaijin keep it up!
Also quite nice to see these things visually shown too!

5:25 the flanker will also show up as a mig29 as of right now (unless it was *just* changed, and afaik as someone else pointed out they use the same radar), however it works out fine, as no matter which plane it actually is you can assume it’s gonna be an ER flying at you
It’s supposed to be that way. The Su-27 has the MiG-29s radar. Same reason that the Italian Harrier shows up as F-18 on RWR.
@@carterscott6500 No they don't. N001 on Su-27 versus N019 on MiG-29. Possibly the same telltale frequency and other attributes, however they are different.
They designed the su-27s radar to have a lot of commonality with the 29s radar, hence why they both show up as the same. Plus, given that both planes carry the same weapons, people who design RWRs never bothered to differentiate them.
Please implement the SPO series rwr inside cockpits for russian planes. It would be so cool to play without HUD. It would also get a buff since they can know if the signal is close or far.
Nah russians don't need more help
Funny how they won't model that into the normal rwr hud 👀
@@thetaundertone1313 that too ^^
I was wondering why they couldn't just make the targets question marks and display their distance. ussr getting double nerfs on the rwrs XDD
Needed this as top-tier battles dont last long enough for you to learn anything.
Get better
Top Tier...so, u go the iron way or the golden way? Just learn the game from Scratch I played 1500h since march and now i often dominate ground and air on first place and match my friends out that play that game for 10 years. I explain them stuff and they tell me "dude u studied french tech tree?" yes i did. U will always have suffer in this game, but without suffer u cant get happy. Oh no i realize something, i have to go :D
@@grahh7234get better.
@@grahh7234 that's... what hes implying he wants to do? If top tier was less cluttered and stimulus filled it would be a lot easier to pick up on these smaller details that give you a sharper edge.
@@ricewith30mmguns51 Do you think im smart idiot
Hey Gaijin,
Thanks that Turkish translator for subtitles. He did a great job in this video.
Would also be nice to have a guide from you guys that talks about evading incoming radar missles. They are so complex and keep getting updated it is hard to know how to dodge them.
Just fly as low as you can. You’ll dodge 99.99% of all radar guided missiles in war Thunder. The rare chance you still die will because you were still within the splash damage radius.
@@PvtPartzz me and squadmates have been trying to figure them, what what weve discoverd, there are three POSSIBLE methods to defeat a radar missle:
- Chaff
- Notching
- Dropping Low Enough
But the issue is, NONE are consistant, not one, sometimes a combnation will work, sometimes it wont
@@BugattiONE666flying low is 100% consistent. If you are at or below the tops of trees, you’re fine. Fly more perpendicular to the target while low to reduce the chance of taking splash damage.
@@PvtPartzz not in the games weve had, Aim7Fs and R27s ignore terrain completely.
@@PvtPartzz Flying low wont save you from a PD assisted Semi active, if that PD radar is locked on it is almost certain to kill. The only reason it would miss is if it hit terrain, or got out manouvered somehow.
Day 5: when will we See the B-52?
I want the euro fighter, germany top tier is very lame(I dont have it yet but its just mig29)
When B2
@@Phantom21452its still too advanced, its gonna have to be added with stuff like the rafale
@@DDrac0 Sad, how ever sometimes they gotta make it, i am just gonna wait it and get top tier air for germany
@@Phantom21452 sorry bro but you're getting another F-4 next
It would be very good to see in the simulator the activation of lights in the vehicle when they fix you or launch a missile, if you add the alert beeps to that, it gives a gigantic immersion to the simulator, then there would be other good changes for simu such as being able to load fuel in air or that the map feels more alive but it would be deviating from the topic, excellent explanation and very good work Mr. Snail 🐌 ❤
Finally, I've always needed this
Thank you i started playing high tier air rb a week ago and really needed some explanation
A much needed video for many players!!!
I don’t know why anyone isn’t pointing out at that during the scene with the tornado the RWR Shows that there’s an F18 in the area. Sounds to me that Gaijin is trying to tell us something.
Edit: nvm it’s a harrier 😢
Would still be cool to add 👀
It's the AV-8B Plus you goob
Great video, very informative.
Thanks for the breakdown!
those are all things I already thought might be the case but reeeeally wanted to know for sure, thanks! :D
This is great, useful information while entertaining, keep it up
Great video!
Fantastic video and supremely helpful, if only we could have this kind of clarity and tutorial standards in the game itself! :L
Amazing ❤ can you also do an updated guide on air to air missile using Radar? Or a new guide on planes with radar?
Great video!
Would it be possible to add an option to disable / fix gyro gunsights in place? The wobbly sight often makes aiming more difficult in simulator matches.
thx snail that help't a lot
1:00 Say it louder for the people in the back! For real Ive been playing so many top tier air sim matches and would lock up an enemy and some goober types in chat "hey stop locking me!" And I break my lock just in case it is friendly and verify but 9/10 times it was just a friendly flying into my beam. A little annoying but I also understand why players would be confused
If someone lock me i just use the follow me voice command
Nice video. In future do you think you could do these when you update big things and not several months after lmao. Would be nice as for the longest time I had no idea how RWR workd.
I have a little question. I am no rwr expert ( even tho i kinda feel like one after this vid ) but i wanna know if more advanced rwrs are going to be added to more jets, just like the f111 has now or like some of the helis, where it shows the heat missle warning (sorry idk how this is called).❤
Would have been nice to mention too that the Launch warning will go off even if the missile launched isn't locked onto you every time.
wow didnt even know that part where you can go to controls help menu and it gives the full list and I thought it would have to be a pull up the wiki to find it. "Nice to know"👍
The new sound of the a10 is soo nice
Good work gaijin, keep it up 👍
Bro💀
good job
Thx for the late lecture. Recently, I witnessed a player accusing the other players of hacking because they were sharing intel using their more advanced RWR. It's sad to see there are still players who don't know what or how RWR works at BR 11.0
can you make a video about IRCCM missiles and how to counter them.
Super-Etandard having a better RWR than the Mig29 is quite funny
helicopters that equipped with an/apr-39 are also better than super etendard
nice
Can you guys do more in depth explanation on how to counter those radar threats? Like what to do if its a pulse dopler, or if its a velocity search, yknow those kind of modes
Give them 2 years and they might, idk why their vids are so late on the topic
Do you plan to have different data base for different aircrafts ? Currently, the J7E I believe still appears as a question mark even if you are flying a J7E yourself. It's the same for the CW wave of the mirage 2000 when guiding a r530 I believe as well
Im already hyped for the new stuff we get next major update…even tho we hadn’t any dev-blogs for it. Keep the great work going🫡
Hey there warthunder person just wanted you to know that in the new volcano map there is a floating tree that has actual colision physics
Hello Gaijin. When will the "new update" "Smoking Snakes" featuring Brazilian tech tree arrive? Your Brazilian fans are looking forward to it!
Sehr hilfreich 👌
Me remembering people probably bought premiums with these days ago and probably have no idea how it works
Lmao. Oh well it's useful at least
awesome
Please make a tutorial on how to evade missiles launched from the front at long distances!
Also, do you plan on adding electronic warfare aircraft (like the EA-6B Prowler) to the game? Not necessarily has player vehicles, but as AI ones. It would be exciting to fly our attack aircraft near such planes to avoid detection a little longer and give ground pounding in air battles a bit of a kick!
Keep your speed up, turn off after burners, and drop countermeasures. When you approach for a head-on, shoot a bit above your target and perform a maneuver to shake off incoming fire.
will the russian SPO-15 receive it's full capabilities? like range detection and inclination of the target relative to the detecting platform?
War thunder finally taught me how to play war thunder
Well i can say this for certine war thunder is getting better and better and i feel like there will be way more in the future🎉
when will the radar ground reflection be reduced a little? the planes in war didnt hug the ground because the radar ground reflection isnt that powerful irl, PLS FIX THIS
I wonder when we'll see more MAWS like on the Aardvark.
좋네요~!! GJ
When I spawn in at the beginning of a match and I see the launch warning when I'm still 10-15k from the closest enemy, does that mean I'm just picking up a missile launch directed at someone else, or is that specifically at me?
Does it warn you if the missile launch is not for you? Like the f14 bulldog cause its really hard to Dodge so i would like to know how to dodge it.
Q: Why War Thunder does not support CPU Multithreading and will it ever support it ?
Need more explanation for ground radar like kopyo radar on SU-39
can you demonstrate how to reliably defend against r-27er? for planes with limited counter measures?
Pray for gaijin
Would this explain why I sometimes don't get RWR from a Mig23ML in MTI, when I'm flying my Su-27?
Ooo informative...
Hi it's clear when you lock up with an air to air radar guided missle but wath is or is't hapening when it's IR guided but radar slaved??
Will the live war thunder camoflage featured on thunder show will get to be added to the game?
Question: Will there ever be plans to add the British IFV "Ajax"?
PLZ ADD THE SUPER TUCANO
can somone pls answer this question? So I am currently working to get the F 16C. I was getting a little bit worried if that you were in first person mode, there wouldn't be a signal or a warning that a missile is being launched at you in first person. Does this update add that? I was really confused on what they were saying and just want to clarify if that is what they are talking about. i would really appreciate it for whoever answers so I can confirm. Thank you.
With the updates to the RWR is there plans in the future to update radar cross sections to accommodate stealth aircraft like the F117 and the f22?
Its highly unlikely they could ever add any stealth aircraft because all of the are *highly* classified and would end up being unrealistically broken or unrealistically bad, so I wouldn’t get your hopes up for a RCS update anytime soon.
The f-22 ain't coming in a long time
1:30 so this is my mig 23s keep throwing lock signals to literally everyone on the map in sim? I could have just lifted off and a friendly mig 23 on the otherwise of the map is giving me lock tones while he is locked onto an enemy
Are you planning on adding clear RWR signal strength (Range) indicators for the russian RWR's that have it IRL? As well as RWR that discriminates between friend or foe for Sim battles?
Iff rwr are already in the game
Q: there are Hungarian voice lines for radio messages in the files. When are we getting them?
Im still not sure if turning your radar off stops you from appearing on rwr.
All well and good talking about how realistic the game is when there is no opinion for realistic match making
It’s almost certain at the end of 2024 or start of 2025 we’re getting the F18
I wish yhe f15 had its actually radar and it's bol pods and the rest of its thrust
Mostly, RWR and radar functions as intended. I'll give the devs that. However, while I understand being in close proximity to a plane will set off your own RWR, I feel like some are notably exaggerated. For instance, from experience, and the experience of all my friends who play high tier jets, the Mig-23's Sapphire-23 series of radar seems to have MASSIVE side-lobes. I should not be getting a lock tone from a Mig-23 7,000m below me scraping the deck who is targeting someone directly below me who is also scraping the deck. It makes it impossible sometimes to tell if a threat is actually for you if you're picking up every single Flogger in the general area even if it's not looking a target anywhere near you.
Hey gajin how do you get 3 defent color smoke at the same time?
We would like you to add more information about missiles to the wiki, for example, we would like you to add more and detailed information about where and how to use aim7m or R27er missiles.
Q:When are you adding Poland as a full tech tree to the game?
question: will the panzer 2 luchs ever be in game?
Assign Dollar plays to the Lithuanian voice acting for the game!
Cool beans.
Will there be a tutorial on this in the in-game...?
Thank you, Gaijin! This clears up some confusion and answers a few questions I had. Very helpful video. 🫡
Question why doesnt war thunder have dinamic tank campaign or single misions with tanks
Q: Hi WT,
Are we going to get stealth aircraft in the game?
Hey... is there anyway to view the replay of a custom match
Will we get more bombers such as the B1 Lancer in game?
A lot of people would like to see those types of planes. they need to add them even if they are only good in sim in the end. Something like mig25's is wanted so bad too.
I just wondering why the F-4S radar can only detect "?" And "HI" ?
@Warthunder 4:32 i can see the sam site in the list WE GETTING LONG RANGE SAM? :}}
3:45 F18 teaser or just the harrier radar?
Harrier
Q: FOX 2 AAM's can evaded using flares but how to evade FOX 3's (ARH) and does flares work on FOX 1's (SARH) ?
Flares dont work on fox 1/3 missiles
Chaff work against them
@@commandergeokam2868 but in fox 1's if we break the radar lock we can evade the missile right
@@cookiegenius_1413 yeah that is correct but if he relock you after a very short period of time the missile can regain track and hit you the best way to dodge any missile is by making it "tired"
@@commandergeokam2868 Cheers mate!👍
Does anyone know what the "IFF" means when inspecting a RWR in the hangar? I thought it was the same as for radars but I don't see how that would work
It tries to filter so friendly radar contacts dob’t get shown
Why Chinese Helicopter’s RWR Can’t Distinguish Targets
What is the largest tank in terms of size in an American tank in War Thunder?
Gaijin! Do you guys are planning bring F18 any time soon??
My friend told me that you can exchange the GE to irm money
Is that true (it can be in free GE for WT)?
you added the ability for RWR to discriminate friend from foe to Air RB, but what about Air SIM? a gamemode that could benefit infinitely more from such a feature given that we dont get player tags above aircraft
Some of the more advanced RWR systems have IFF and it will show using the symbology on the RWR display in sim.
On the air superiority update they said this feature wasn’t coming with sim, did they add it at some point cause I don’t remember seeing it in a changelog?
Question: How is it fair to drastically reduce the effectiveness of certain aircraft’s RWR without also adjusting their battle ratings? Aircraft like the F4J and F14a almost exclusively see opposing aircraft with PD radars which they can no longer detect.
This change has made flying those aircraft almost impossible in Sim without consistently taking SARH’s to the face with zero warning.
This change should not have gone ahead without adjusting the sim battle ratings.
Yeah yeah yeah the f18’s radar is on the av8b. But it wasn’t before. So. I think that means something…
Since the rwr update it did always show up as F18 and there is still no f18 so it didn’t meant anything i believe.
Did they forget to cover the distance of an enemy aircraft on the RWR indicator?
Maybe they did, but im sure its focused on the points that people get confused and complain about
Hey Gaijin please change Turkish "launch" alert. Because it is showing "başlat". İt means "start"!
Add body armor for the soldiers in tanks (Nations that do so!)
Q: how to notch R-27ER and ET as well as IR missiles with IRCCM at various Altitude and Ranges?
You cant notch the et cause it is a heat seeker
You can't notch it and oftentimes you won't even see it coming for you
For russian missiles you need to get your flares in the seeker OR in the intercepting trajectory. For american ones you hope for the best ^^
@@goliath3413 R73s do not care. They'll do a 180 towards you
@@Thunder-pain as they should but still. Can be flared off
Make jet matches smaller please.
