America needs new missiles

For R-77 changes were only buffs…
At least after major update

Might be misremembering then. Fair enough.

I cant wait for this guy to find out that Aim-9X is likely going to be one of the weakest 5th Gen IR Missiles. The cope is going to be hilarious.

I should be able to have the 2 best ones in the british and german variants, both of which i will be exploiting to their fullest upon release, I adore the typhoon, best fighter aircraft ever :3

Yeah, Im tempted to start working down the Italian line just to try out Typhoon with IRIS-T.

But ASRAAM + PIRATE on the british one is going to be hella fun

They don’t realise they already peaked

Flanker + ET but on crack, anabolic steroids and a hefty dose of Yorkshire’s finest

they peaked with the F-4E like 3 years ago lol

I didnt say anything in that regard earlier because I wanted to not antagonize blud for the sake of arguing in good faith, but yeah.

Holy shit they are so cooked. AIM-120 is it. this is their peak. Meteor, IRIS-T, PL-10 and PL-15 are gonna be one rude fucking awakening.

Edit: PL-15.

Beyond that even, the second they realise that every Euro and Sino aircraft will start outperforming the american counterparts with the addition of the J-10s and Eurofighter/Rafale, basically all 4.5 Gens from around the world (bar russian ones since they peak here too) are on par or better than anything that America puts out, it will stay this way forever too since the F-35 will be a more competitive BVR platform than the F-22 and I would much rather take an EFT into a merge than I would a raptor

You need volumetric flares to flare off missiles that use ultraviolet to supplement their infared guidance. If the AIM-9X was added right now the only way to avoid it would be to fly outside of its gimbal limit. Meaning you have to be behind planes that have it. It would be undodgeable if fired at you.

Rafale M F.3R is gonna absolutely murder them, 13 missiles, you can do 6 meteor for long ranges, 4 MICA EMs for Medium and 3 MICA IRs for short.

They’re gonna want the NGAD lmao and B-21 premium to grind it

You’re right, America should get the f35 right now, for balance or something.

Rafales with IR micas (Assuming give MICA full capability) and Meteors would be fun for them to compete with too.

fr tho, America is so underpowered. I find my MICA’s out ranging AIM-120’s by like 300km in my 300km bvr fights, really depressing tbh.

Being behind an Aim-9X doesn’t save you. They are capable of firing on targets on your six. But hardened flares would be more important meaning people would have to take smaller flare loadouts.

The game would also benefit from non-mixed battles being a regular rotation. Just like we see SB maps, we should also see non-alternate reality battles. It would make the game fun to get to fight migs and SU-27s. Take away multi-pathing for any missile that isn’t effected IRL by it. Give us non-mixed battles. Let the players enjoy some true way it was intended fights.

So you want a complete death bubble 5km around every US top tier plane?
