@Smin1080p the fa2 should go to 12.0
Let’s compare it to the gr7, and it’s clear that its advantage is the excellent radar (but it’s hard to say whether this will be its advantage, because its airframe performance is so bad that it’s only about 9.7, which makes its ability to use radar to lock on to targets at this weight is very low) with the aim120. Its disadvantage lies in its extremely poor airframe performance (9.7 level).
compared with av8b+,the may be advantage lies in that it has only two more aim120,but players will carry 3 in average.one or two more aim120 will make no difference in the game.however,it has extremely poor airframe performance (9.7 level) which will cause it
peform extremly poor in 12.3
Even with the gr7’s airframe performance (around 11.0), I admit it’s flexible, but it’s almost impossible to attack from low altitude, because it only has an advantage in the first round of hovering, but its energy will be lost rapidly in combat, so the best way for him to attack is to attack from top to bottom and then break away.
But fa2 is very difficult to accomplish even this kind of top-down attack. only a maximum overload of 6G at 5000 m will make it very difficult for the target to enter the attack envelope of the missile quickly, whether it is against the target at the same altitude or the target at a low altitude. (Now even the U-turn is done very slowly.)
To sum up, a 9.7 airframe is too weak for a 12.3, and even though it has one of the best weapon systems in the game, its lack of HMD, coupled with its poor pointing ability, will make it difficult for it to take the lead in the battle。(It is also difficult to avoid any missile of this br.)
i’m wondering whether we can ask gaijin to make it easier to get aim120a,it is the most difficult plane for me to get to a modification that can really come in hanfy,even in the dev service.
i can’t manage to kill any players even with the aim9m,the only useful thing for sea harrier now
aim120a,without it ,fa2 will be killed as easy as an AI for other players. @Smin1080p
Noticed the FA.2 has been made a Fighter at some point on the dev server, instead of the Strike Aircraft it was when testing opened.
FRS.1 remains a Strike Aircraft
Be afraid of your desires
Otherwise they will delete 120B and replace them with 120A))
This change now allows you to fly in GRB on both Gr.7 and F/A.2 without penalty for re-departure. Due to the fact that they now have a different class.
I’m glad that was fixed. I half get the FRS1 being strike aircraft, it’s an edge case, though probably should be changed. But at least the FA2 gets in my opinion, the correct designation
I hope we get the sea harriers changed to fighter, would allow me to finally have something other than my buccaneer as everything else around it is a strike aircraft. shame the phantoms are 10.7 in ground now, as we dont have a 10.7 lineup to use with it.
Just from watching that video, i realised i should probably trust my missiles alot more, as i usualy assume its already self destructed as soon as i lose a lock (although i do know the 7f isnt an ARH).
Also, 60 flares and no chaff at that altitude? who is this man.
