once you get into a dog fight you need to be constantly flareing as the all know aim9m could be anywhere
Good that F-14D radar is MPRF so it cant be easily notched. 140 degree horizontal scan also helps as the F-16 and other top tier jets have only 120 degrees (with exceptions)
Aight I’m off to bed cya later my dudes
when does everyone think the trailer will release?

there’s technically an “early” because the A’s in U.S. service were upgraded to carry AIM-120s. Hence why the “early”
Same reason “early” is used on so many other vehicles in war thunder despite an early variant not existing. It’s because that vehicle has undergone a lot of change during its service life.
The ones upgraded to carry AIM-120s were called F/A-18A+. So no there is no “early” it’ll still be called F/A-18A.

Btw m8 you forgetten the 1472 : )
Japan has arguably the best top tier jet, and an OK MBT, roughly equivalent to the Abrams in WT

Don’t bring me into this lol.
sorry was just quoteing you a famous author XD
Yes, as I already know. It doesn’t change the fact that it was a tech demo, and was never planned to enter service under any circumstances.
la200 is 7.7 why is the me262 c2b 8.0 and not 7.7
Statistics id assume
Let me try again “StaTiStiCs”
probably same reason the Saab35XS is 11.3 and fights radar missiles with no RWR.
14 hours from now i hope for a teaser.

tbh there’s a lot of cases like this, which is just annoying.
Lot of 9.3s fighting all aspect missiles when they have no flares
shame
the sooner the Hornet gets added the sooner there’s a microscopic chance that the GR7 gets ASRAAM, the Aussie Hornet also uses them, it will also be a good missile for Eurofighter eventually

I’m gonna keep it real with you my friend… The ASRAAM on the GR7 is a case of “please don’t do that”
The airframe is already pitiful at it’s BR and is carried by weapons. The AV-8B even more so.
ASRAAMs would skyrocket this plane to a place it has no right being in.
This is the same reason the Ja37D shouldn’t get it’s AIM-120s

I did better taking it to 13.7 in a squad than at 12.3 with only AIM-9M. It has no radar so you’re not tripping the RWS on the guy you are sneaking up on, it turns harder than all other harriers and can VTOL really reliably without the engine exploding, I get a lot of frags by just stopping mid-air if a merge goes into a two circle.
Maybe if the GR7a or GR9a got added it could have them so the current one stays at 12.3. plus we get a version with an improved engine for top tier. wouldn’t be a large task for gaijin as its basically a copy paste with a retune
