It was something they added a few months ago iirc. ARH missiles were having an issue with ground clutter or something?
But yeah, in shoot down situations, if you can, maintain radar track on the target

I’m surprised no one is talking about changing the game mechanics in a more realistic way to reduce the effectiveness of the Rafale.
There’s two options:
Remove multipathing, this would benefit longer ranged missile like the AIM-120C-5 over the shorter ranged MICA EM
Increase map sizes, this would again benefit longer ranged missiles like the AIM-120C-5 which would finally be able to “stretch its legs” and fire from further distances and have more opportunities to re-engage and fire again from longer distances.
People cannot be complaining about a short ranged fighter excelling in the arena the aircraft was designed for, and not consider changing the arena.

100% agreed.
It sounds like you want the Su-35
That’s a given. They’ve already said Air-RB EC isn’t coming anytime soon though, so naturally this is the next course of action.
Yeah it’s one of my main wishes for the Russian air tree
Rather stupid how France gets either a fairly strong 14.3 or mid 14.7 while the rest of us are stuck at 14.0, if not lower. The average yesterday-miragef1c200-basebomber manages 1.25 K/B and 1.7 K/D in it according to statshark. For comparison, Italian typhoon barely touches 0.8 and 1.0 respectevly.
“Muh minor nation players”, might have been true for the first month or two at most after the update. Also funny how that doesnt apply to said IT typhoon, is it not? Go see French teams at around 12.0 at any point during the last half a year. And then consider the fact that the raflale alone has more games in it than, for instance, all three Japanese 13.7’s combined, which for all intents and purposes of our current scope is just as mainstream as any other. And yet here we are.

Even if Gaijin try to do so, the player would simply just rush mid and creating furball once again.
There are absolute reason why Phoenix and Fakour-90 used to dominate the battlefield, there’s no hard counter to it rather than notching.

Remove the USSR from that list, Su-30s radar is literally an equal.
???
I’m going to assume this dominance you’re talking about happens after the introduction of ARH missiles, otherwise its just the final nail in the coffin around a cope post.
what you on about ??
multipathing keeps game fair and fun whats a stock plane supposed to do with no flares and chaff just notch 24/7 ?
we need newer planes for most countrys like later gens of them
the top tier meta needs a rework BFM should be meta why anyone likes BVR is beyond me
Yeah that’s one of the downsides of reducing multipath, ideally stock planes would get full chaff/flares.
Also don’t disagree with this, multitudes of newer planes should be added and rushed to be added.
MP was a band-aid to a problem they should have fixed years ago.
things like no stock chaff could be easily resolved. Though its also not like the chaff mod is a late unlock. Its pretty much the first mod for 99% of aircraft and to be honest. dictating top tier gameplay for 99.99% based upon the 0.01% that havent got chaff unlocked yet kinda sucks

even then you only get 2 radar missiles stock not a lot you can do with
FOX-3 honestly ruined the game Aim7M vs R27ER/R1 was far more fun than this hot garbage
Stock grinding sucks. That is what stock grinding is meant to be like so people spend money. Its money generating aspect of a F2P game. It serves no purprose outside of that for 99.9999% of vehicles.
Dictating spaded vs spaded gameplay based around stock vs spaded gameplay just feels… bad
like yeah aim7M is worse than ER but all russian planes with it are Poor dogfighters so it balanced out
Strong disagree there personally.
Tornado F3 with Skyslugs vs Su-27/Mig-29 sucked.
I’ve never played the game more than when fox-3s were introduced than ever before. It’s far more balanced right now than it was in the past. All missiles have their own rock/paper/scissor balance.
thats the one minority plane shouldve stuck to cas
