Previously all missiles could be slaved to radar, now only certain ones can, so I've added this to the stat card. While I was at it I've changed the ''Uncaged Lock FoV'' field to ''Seeker gimbal limit'' and halved the value to try and make things clearer. Before the value represented the maximum FoV of the seeker when it was gimballing (in flight or otherwise), as this most noticeable affect of this was the size of the outer ring on uncaged seekers that was how I labelled it. However what this value truly represents is how far the seeker can look off-boresight. Thus it also affects how far off-centre the missile can track a target while being slaved to the radar, and how far off centre it can track a target while flying. To put it simply a higher number will produce a bigger outer-circle for missiles with uncaged seekers, let the missile look further off-boresight when being slaved to radar, and track better. I have tried to update this field to better represent how it affects the missile. Not sure if I've been able to word it great in the annotation though, so if you've got a better way of getting the point across (without being too wordy) then feel free to suggest improvements.--[[User:U13682523|U13682523]] ([[User talk:U13682523|talk]]) 20:10, 22 November 2019 (UTC)</ins></div></td></tr>

(cruise phase) and get 2.1km. So with the same 900km/h target we need to fire at 1175m. Add in a bit of drag and the missile maneuvering and it'll be under 1.1km.

In the SRAAM the limiting factor is the lifespan (it will reach 3.7 secs flight time before it reaches 3,000 m distance), I can't say that would be the case for every missile. There isn't really a good way to get the number from maths; if you are going fast and your target is going slow then you can fire the missile from further away (about 1.2 km), but in most combat situations where you and your target are fairly close in terms of speed you don't want to fire much outside of 1 km I think there are too many variables to work out a hard figure with maths; it's also not clear to me how Gaijin model missile acceleration (although I would certainly like to find out). I have filled in the rest of the page and for the time being reworded it slightly to make it clearer that it is a recommendation and not a hard fact. --[[User:U13682523|U13682523]] ([[User talk:U13682523|talk]]) 10:37, 9 November 2019 (UTC)</ins></div></td></tr>
