Missiles running out of energy

Post by Stealth2017 »

Hi,

I would just like to know if something has been changed with the dynamics of AAMs. Somehow I have a feeling that it is very easy to outmanoeuvre the incoming missiles. On one occasion I have launched 6 AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM P3I.3 from a mid range 25-30 nm, 5 out 6 missiles were running in the straight line, the enemy aircrafts did not undertake any countermeasure like dropping chaffs, nothing.

I would just get the following message:
25/07/2018 01:32:47 - Weapon: AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM P3I.3 #2508 has run out of energy... self-destructing

25/07/2018 01:32:47 - Weapon: AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM P3I.3 #2509 has run out of energy... self-destructing

Why is this happening? I have never noticed something like this prior to v 1.13 build 972.6. There are so many missiles that just keep flying without undertaking any manoeuvre. I can tell with a great certainty that the first salvo is always going to miss a target, and not because of the defensive measures but just because of running in the straight line. The same goes when an enemy lunches the AAMs toward my aircraft/s, the first missile is always going to miss, I do not need to do anything in order to dodge a missile. I would like to mention that a target is always illuminated, so I have a lock on a target all the time. A missile keeps running toward an enemy aircraft, an active radar seeker is turned on, but because of some reason unknown to me it just keeps running in a straight line as mentioned previously.

25/07/2018 01:30:46 - Weapon: AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM P3I.3 #2505 is attacking Dragon #12 (J-10AH Vigorous Dragon) with a base PH of 95%. Dragon #12 has nominal agility: 4.9, adjusted for altitude: 4.9. Agility adjusted for proficiency (Veteran): 4.9. Aircraft has a weight fraction of 0.44 - Agility adjusted to 3.61. Agility adjusted for rear-oblique impact effect: 3.1. Final agility modifier: -31%. Final PH: 64%. Result: 70 - MISS

Prior to 1.13 it had been so common to see such message, but now I see most of the time "has run out of energy... self-destructing". Any thought about this?
