No, it matters.
You can fire it at a longer distance, and it will give you a higher chance of getting undetected.
That is why I prefer AIM-9D/G to AIM-9J/P or R-60.
Have you ever flown with Yak-38 for a single time?
R-60 has 800 m-ish range, and you need to be completely exposed with that subsonic brick.
Magic 1 has infinitely better range than R-60, and your A-5C is a supersonic jet.
Well, it might barely be supersonic, though. At least you fly faster than true-subsonic like Bucc or Harriers.
It is quite bizarre that you blamed other opponents as ‘you never flew with A-5C’, but you brought the Yak-38 into a problem. Sounds quite like double standards. Isn’t it?
What you need to get with A-5C is not getting buffed down for ravaging flareless subsonic planes freely.
What you need to get is, send underrated bastards(F8U or J-7D as an example) up with decompression, which will make A-5C less suffer.
r60 actually often hits at about 1.8km range in a chase and against early jets like we find in 8.3 you can even fire at 2.5km
and with your tactic of climb and dive that range is for sure higher than “800m”
r60 launched when flying 1000km/h can hit a plane flying 900km/h (typical speed for mig15s etc) from 2300 meters
and when you both fly 900 then r60 can hit from 2200
weird how suddenly you consider that yak38 is a flying brick
just like a5c…
TBH all the Q5/A5 deserve a lower battle rating except the early variant at 9.3

You are the one who brought Yak-38 into ‘this’ warzone.
I never told that Yak-38 were manoeuvrable.
No offence, but I really think you don’t know what you’re even talking about. :/
I mean that you taken into account that yak38 is a flying brick when you considered its missiles at its br
same thing applies to a5c but you somehow consider it free kills suddenly
You are completely ignoring the speed differnce between the fuselage.
Supersonic brick is better than subsonic brick.
And R-60 is worse than Magic 1.
Also, Yak-38 don’t have coutnermeasures
So, bringing Yak-38 for defending A-5C is a bad idea.

you’re right it should be at 11.0 *just like the F5E.
the difference in speed isnt that huge, a5c will almost all the time top out at around 1200 (at maps with higher alt) only rarely hitting mach 1.0 and guess what, yak38 will also stay around 1000-1200
yes, r60 is worse in distance than magic 1 but its much better at short distance
and you are fogetting yak38 is at 9.3 so it can face 8.3’s
a5c isnt that much different from yak38 and yet its 10.7
There are alot of flying bricks at 10.7 that wont even make it to the base, because of A5Cs.

As I told you earlier, A-5C nowadays has some problems.
JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER 10.7BR ATTACKERS.
I don’t understand why the hell you just want special treatment on your A-5C ffs.
I would’ve agreed if you were discussing buffing Q-5A/L instead, but not A-5C.
A-5C need decompression, not undertiering it instead.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Do you really think that SPO-10 and 4th-gen grade RWR are same?
That is why Decompression is the only proper answer for A-5C.
You read nothing in reply, and vomiting whines instead of a reply.
Nobody cares.

bro played warthunder in 1970
and since that is the default value for timestamp = 0 I guess you dont have a single battle on your account
f3h that can fight 8.0, Mig19 that can fight 9.3, mig21s that can fight 8.7, f4c that can fight 9.0
None of which isn’t compression issue
Bruh “just avoid”. Yeah why not just shoot everyone down at the first pass.
I now think alwis is good, at least I am thinking about logical spirals when debating with him.

Now that is probably the worst take i have seen today.

It is not, the magic is better at everything
no, its not
magic turns worse at short distance
Huge knowledge issue moment
Magic 1s are probably the best rear-aspect IR missile in game
