post a clip where you actually did it.
Give me a few.
pre flare and get yourself slow. record it when you flare em
I’ll do another run under those conditions.
I guess I got really lucky the first time. Wait time was 30 seconds haha. This time it took about five minutes.
fact are, for arcade : AIM 9M is impossible to flare, each time i made it miss, it was by outmanoeuvering it, bleeding its energy or making it crash in a mountain, it just never see flares all the time.
One point that say it all is the fact that you can fire them at will, whatever the preflaring the target is doing it will ignore them and go for the plane.
to the RB players that don’t belive it : you can just do a few AB games and try to flares theses 9M like in RB… and see the result.
could you record how you flared the 9m?
I sent you a message earlier this week. The testing I did was fast and hard turns. You had asked for me to meet certain criteria:
Which I couldn’t get anyone in a match to help me make happen. Hopefully we can meet up and do some tests and make recordings of it. It’s just ridiculous to wait 5+ minutes to get into an arcade matches these days -_-
When I asked for help - people thought it was really funny to use radar missiles instead.
As a us main i find this Hilarious… AIM-9M actually sucks once you even encounter someone who knows a bit about it… compared to the R-73 which i don’t see you complaining about (russian main bias)
that shit is so hard to flare it’s not funny. it doesn’'t suspend tracking with the seeker once it sees flares. no it can do a 180-270 degree turn angle in a dogfight and cause you to lose… Try doing THAT with a Aim-9M.
(for some reason using rockets is a kind of counter to it- zunis preferably- but who would want to sacrifice a hardpoint just to counter some IR missile anyway right???
anyway to the video i saw. i rather just use a radar missile if i had one with what you did. because unless you can notch. it’s GOING to hit. not having a chance to hit with the IR AIM-9M.
