why after the new update the mig 23ml radar sucks so much?

[XxXmarioXxX]

i cant change the radar mode Between src ,src mti

[NO MORE FOOTJOBS]

its a new "feature" litterally no idea why they did it. you have to be in a dive bomb above your opponent now to use mti radar, it automatically turns on when your nose is below the horizon/below 90 degrees, and if someone is flying level/slightly above you near ground clutter there is nothing you can do to lock them. awful change.

Gaijin fixed the various MiG-23 radars to reflect how they actually work.

Welcome to Soviet radar design.

MTI could only be used in niche circumstances so they effectively automated the process so the pilot didn't have to worry about managing it themselves and trained the pilots on how to engage it when they actually needed it.

MTI will only activate if you're below 1200m and you're pointing your nose towards the ground. If you're pointing in a positive elevation, the system will use SRC. If you're pointing in a negative elevation, the system will use MTI.

Which is how it worked in real-life. And that's why F-4J went to 12.0 and MiG-23MLs went to 11.7.
Thanks for the awesome explanation like always :)

wich can be manual overwritten by the pilot but the snail did not add this till now
