like what radar missile ? sparrow or pheniox both are pretty easy to dodge as F14 has a weak radar
Just pre flare when u see magic slinger and for God sake don’t let them come close if they are under 1km u barely have any chance of even dropping flare
I wouldn’t mind giving the F-14B the aim-9m to make it more competitive with the F-15A
they said no because of the stupid pheinox missile which is a glorified paper weight
Easy when only facing solo f14 not f18 and su33 and f15 . Also the great rwr of f1c is beyond dumpster fire
True I would agree with the decision if the aim 54 had its 25G of maneuverability like it’s supposed to but the phoenix is to weak rn to use it as justification to not give the B the 9M
Like you can see in this short, a fox 3 missile can still receive a DL update if fired top down.
Nah, still there, still working, if i remember outside of stuff like A10C and Su25SM3 and similar, the chinese flanker has MAWS as well? i dont remember anymore
Python 3 doesnt have IRCCM if i remember, so that thing is just defeated by anything. 9M requires you to get out of the path when the seeker shuts off and R73s have FoV IRCCM so they are very deadly at close ranges, especially when you count in the TVC they have.
btw those stats are somewhat hampered down by the fact that its a vertical launched ground version, so its performance is worse.
i am very doubtful SMT could do anything to rafale in a merge, that things FM is just sad. Su27SM on the other hand with archers could get a TVC R73 off and those missiles perform the best at close range.
yeah gaijins just mean.

thats there whole reasoning
huh. i was under impression that currently the missiles dont switch back to DL, only to IOG. Guess i was wrong then.
unless its another bug added in with Leviathans (and jesus there is so many of them) it should still work when top down.
That vid from Migan is from Dec 2024, but if that hasnt been broken it should still work. On the other hand currently anything with DL (and even without, so IR and ARH included) can get spoofed by someone firing a missile or dropping a bomb. Gaijin said they fixed it for IR, SARH and ARH but thats not true. Ive had amraams switch targeting to R77s, 9Ms just lock onto enemy missiles after being fired at planes, Sparrows going to Narnia (tho arguably that could just be sparrows being sparrows)
Also is not that if u break the lock once and re aquire missile will lose the dl ?
That it’s 17G g limit is to strong even tho it’s supposed to have around 25G?
yes but gaijin is lazy and wont model duel plane which really benefits russian missiles as some or most dont use it from what i heard
It’s about the game engine have no ability to do the dual plane pull that phnx do for 25g
You need to cut afterburner and have the flares be hot and visible to the seeker, so you are like shooting the flares at the missile basically having them between your engine and the missile, and you have to take into account what direction your dispensers are popping them up/down etc. Popping flares while turning will get you killed since the flares are going hot by the time they are outside the seeker.
If you are side aspect turn into the missile and pop flares.

Yeah you are right about it they are still switch target even after gaijin said they fixed it . I love sparrow bird hate the missile
Remember manpad nerf they did because if igla cannot have higher g neither can any another manpad
should just add duel plane as a place holder stat make game a lot easier
I dont even have the mig29 yet but sad to hear.
Any chance of it being un- nerfed any time soon?
