- I don’t see any instances of what you are talking about there. You spawned 2 planes without flares, you successfully flared 2 R-60Ms in the F-8, and you died to an R-60M you didn’t see while you were in your F-5E.
- I don’t see anything out of the ordinary. You died to missiles in aircraft without flares, and when you spawned your F-5E, you died to a missile you didn’t see.
- It’s mostly the same thing that happened in the 3 previous battles. You died to missiles while in plane that don’t have any countermeasures.
A couple recommendations: Do not bring 9.7 (F-104A), 9.3 (F-100D), and 8.3 (B-57B) into 11.3 matches with your F-5E. The F-4C is also vulnerable due to it lacking countermeasures. The F-8U is 9.7, but atleast it has countermeasures. I’d ditch the phantom and F-5E, and just continue to play 9.7 until you have a fuller lineup at another BR.
i guess there is a language barrier. i didn´t say someone locked you on. i said your AIM 9E going for a target nearly 8kms away never gonna hit it.
It’s likely just a tactical reload, he wants to get his timer going to get back to 2 missiles and had nowhere else to put the missile
Oh i forgot in Arcade you reload you ammo while flying
Yeah could be true. Tactical reload

skill issue in this case cause they work fine for me most of the time those they don’t are usually cause I messed up with my throttle
probably an ir missile and it was probably ignoring your flared cause your engine was a hotter heat source
It was not. He spawned in, and like 10 secs later, he fired both of his missiles at that target.
This was an somewhat common thing he did in the replays i watched. Firing both missiles within a second of each other and often at targets over 3km out.
I dunno, I didn’t watch the replays I was just offering solutions.
That’s really weird behavior though.
It seems like he is new to missiles. I would say it is just inexperience.
Just something that will take time used to. He should start by not firing over 2.5km out and not firing both in such quick succession.

i’ll try to…
Its something you will get over time. If you have any questions about missile stuff, feel free to DM me.
I dont know if you do this, but dont look at the launch range. That is just how far the missile will fly before self-destructing. The missile will slow down well before that. Most of that range is the missile going less than 700kph.
