contradicting yourself in less than a paragraph, amazing. not only is the US not secretive at all, it also keeps boasting about its weapons all the time, and you can find a mountain of info from former and current service members on websites like Quora et all, which always surprised me because if you were in the french airforce and did this you’d be in massive trouble.

US players would still suck shit and their winrate would still be in the toilet, again theres a reason US mains are widely derided as being delusional and youre the textbook example. US vehicles are still excellent and capable, the players just cant figure out how to improve and refuse to learn from mistakes. No amount of balancing or fixes can change the playerbase, sorry.

a later version of AIM 9-M is all we need where on i believe aim-9M-4 as current one in game is mid The aim-9-7 would be fine probabaly

Even then, that is probably un-needed.

Just need to fix the Aim-9M we have:

Nah let US have it maybe we all can also get it as well on Gripen EFT

Dont get me wrong. I want ASRAAM. But in the meantime. I think we can maintain a degree of performance without adding a Aim-9M (late) to the game. Especially as I think its something they totally refuse to add anyway. They wouldnt even add the RAF’s De-chirped Aim-9Ls which are just Aim-9Ls with extra lock range.

Why’s the AIM-120 unbelieveable shit???
Pulls 25G tops in 2 km dogfight engagements???
Not even 25. It pulls 20. Rarely see it pull more
This happens and then you have the Russian UFO with the R-73s.

It’s also relatvie to how fast you are going and from the point of launch command how quickly it starts tracking. I do believe in game the A and B model have a slight tracking delay.

The C model rectifies this shortcoming.

Russian UFO with r-73s? I mean, sure the flankers are overperforming in sustained rate at medium to high ish altitude, but even then it hardly compares to something like the rafale or eurofighter

Yes. Your AMRAAM doesn’t pull shit and then the flanker does a backflip and launches an R-73 3 km’s away. Flare everything and die.
Don’t get me wrong. I think flankers are cool and everything but when i fire my 35G AMARAAM 2 km’s away that pulls less than a sparrow, you should die.
Don’t get me started on the Rafale mains.

You do know the reason why is because early AMRAAMs had a massive tracking delay? Like, the aam4 is less gs, (32) but pulls much more than AMRAAMs close range because their tracking delay is half (.3 seconds) of the amraam tracking delay (.6 seconds). G pull is also dependant on fin aoa and speed through the air, at low speeds it wouldn’t be able to pull the fin aoa required to hit 35 gs unlike something like an r-77 that has much higher fin aoa.

My honest reaction:

They aren’t

They are tho. Yeah. Long range. Same as the MICA can go at long and short ranges unlike the AMRAAM, but i digress.

They aren’t, still excellent missiles

Shoot at closer ranges, long range shots gives players too much time to defend!
