What are the differences between the three versions of the Sidewinder available for the F-15C? Can't seem to find a link nor does it say anything in the F-15 manual (actually mainly talks about the Lima then a Mike briefly...) Are there differences in game?

L will go after flares / sun more easily.

Sidewinders (and all ir missiles ) are ok in Dcs , but radar missiles not so good.


I5 8400 , 16gb , GTX 1070 oc , Win10 64bit . Virpil T-50 27" monitor with 2560x1440 rez ... DCS + Oculus CV1 + Samsung Odyssey . (odyssey is better for flight sims)

I know that this isn't exactly the answer to your question but this document shows the development of the AIM-9 and a lot of other good information. Haukka81 is right about their performance in the simulation.
