AIM-120s are too OP

Yet everyone is acting like its impossible to dodge but its pretty easy.

I think the key difference though is that even a decent SARH, can likely be defeated kinematically, especially if it was fired off-boresight. A missile like AMRAAM, is very hard to be defeated kinematically when fired at close range and can be fired off boresight to great effect. Addtionally when used in a dogfight, its hard to get the right notch to defeat it. Where as an IR or even SARH missile in the same situation would have been more readily defeated.

Notch + chaff is working quite well for me, its just sad when you have to face fox-3 missiles with fox-1 or 2 only.

I’ve seen people complaining about multipath not working, it still works for me, but a good implementation would be if they add altimeter radar, as the altimeter we use are barometric based on sea level and most people don’t know exactly how far from the ground they are.

Edit: just a tip, if you’re trying to use multipath, do not fly towards the missile. For a missile flying high your plane will cover the ground reflection and the missile will go directly towards you.

Yeah, Ive been exploiting MP just fine, but I play SIM with Radar altimeter in the HUD. Would be good in third person too

Sure they are a lot better in close up combat but they still act the same with tracking. Its like when R-27s were added and everyone spammed threads about how OP it was, but after awhile everyone learned to counter them like they will with AMRAAMs. Everyone hates it cause they have to change the way they play.

Doesn’t matter. It still has the same flaw, low to the ground capable of detecting you due to the Radar waves detecting the ground and other stuff.

要是你每把都被120杀死就是你技术问题了

When their carriers go to 14?

so how? I do mean its impossible to fight with F16C now. Su17SM and J11A has a shit missile like R77-1 and a shit Radar such as the N001 and N001VEP. Also the Su27s lost its speed quick and sharp. And what happend when you try to speed up? Your flight even worse than M-2000! Thats what you called BALANCE?

As he said. Learn BVR tactics. If u want you can watch Growling Sidewinder

所以宁的平衡就是只要有几次不被120干烂就算行了是吗?

Iv tried to fight with F16C in a Su27SM. you know what? When the F16 take a shot by a AIM120A, the N001A cant even catch the wave from the F16. And the distance are 22km! I do the lower one. Thats so balanced.
As USAF players said the AIM7M always miss, but now the Su27 even blind. Anyway its better to take a shot than keep your missiles under your wings right?

我又没说平衡,是你自己说的,120确实强,现在天上120乱飞,双方都有,不应该好好学学怎么防御吗?

那确实是这样的
