yeah so it doesnt say IRCCM but it acts like it has IRCCM pretty often
yeah the stat card lies
according to missile spreadsheet it not only has IRCCM but has better IRCCM than R73
20g and 1.69kg of TNT and it will explode at 4m. dosen’t look very good mostly will only critical damge you.
also known as almost useless above 1km unless rear aspect

maybe for R73
but 30% lower FOV than that makes it much more effective at range
true, but it still is just a narrow fov irccm, meaning effective IRCCM range is at best like 2km in a headon, if we are really generous. And if you go towards the af it will be headon
also most planes can afford to preflare for half a min, and you might even try to glide through with engines off
not really, this is starting at 10.7 br matches so there are even some flare less planes that will face them
and in that br range most planes dont have a huge number of countermeasures and will have even less when its at the point in the game where they are pushing the airfield
I thought it start from 7.0 Early jet era. No?
id say most of the popular planes have enough to get at least one pass, you dont need to preflare from max range but really only in the 2km range where the IRCCM starts cooking. Besides, most maps allow you to dip behind a hill, making the deathbubble essentially 1-2km max.
and thats exactly what it should be, making it difficult to make a gun run
its not like missiles are particularly effective against planes on the ground
you know it wont work if the player is only visible at 1km and the spaa has to line up for the shot so it wont stop straving
I already had the AF being camped by planes that could sit just our of range and smack you as soon as you tried to take off. Its an improvement but not enough. Something with a bit more range mixed in with the Strelas.
Good news for anyone complaining about high tier AA! You can use: Long range IR missiles, glide bombs, IR and TV ATGMs, laser guided bombs and missiles, even rockets and dumb bombs with CCIP and CCRP to kill someone on the airfield.
Airfield camping would be much less of an issue in the first place if people weren’t circled by vultures just because they needed ammo, fuel, or a repair. Sorry your 10 minute TDM match got slowed down.
80% of the maps are just made to spawncamp…
Low tier AA being a death bubble and the top tier AA being useless can both be true, but everyone wants to go to one extreme or the other it seems
Most people want to go to one extreme or the other, that is true, and it’s unfortunate. There’s too many CoD-minds and No-Thoughts-Head-Empty kinds, as well.

best airfield strave were 4 kills in one run, 3 of them were on the non spaa airfield

Which is why I will never land at the front airfield unless im forced to. Nice work lol.
well they also wouldnt have survived at the protected airfield, just saying only died since I wanted to end the round and did an run which was not covered…
