No way typhoon players can complain when they’re pulling 16G’s at mach 1.5 with nearly double the missiles, while having the objectively best fox 3 in game

about the only way i got kills on the dev against Typhoon’s, would always put in chat “now why did we do that”

Its stupid good with broken radar… once TWS is fixed, it will be able to reliably spam 4-6 amraams at 30-40km at multiple targets and properly guide them. They are already hitting with that trash TWS.

They never seemed to use their range advantage on dev. Was a bit odd.

There’s no need to make this personal, bring out personal stats, or argue about stuff that doesn’t belong in this thread. Please keep this conversation on topic and respectful since we’ve already dealt with some messages, let’s not cross the line alright?

i never really tried, i was like “man this is a MICA, im only gonna use it within 10km”
Unless they implement a (distance / energy) table, we’ll never be able to warrant using them at range.
so very sad
As a matter of fact, it lacks range, and the seeker is a bit too weak too.
Good on you for pointing that out.
If they could give it its missing 37.5% of range, it could in fact compete with AMRAAM at long range like it is supposed to
After all it’s only fair : Rafale gets less missiles, doesn’t it.

Could also probably resolve some of the issues by having thrust vectoring turned off until within a given range of the intended target. Not exactly ideal, but it’d at least give us some range and retain short range agility.
Less missiles, a radar that isn’t even properly modeled, and at the same BR as the typhoon which is straight up better than anything else, especially when you consider that this is with all the bugs related to its IRST

i always thought it could fixed by not letting TV be on until it reaches a certain G threshold then TV turns on

mentions it. It is not a primary source, but tends to be reliable.
The ±70° seems to come from “Pilotes de Rafale” - Edition Atlas, i unfortunately don’t possess this book myself

It would be a bit hard on server, because you’d constantly have to poll distance if you wanted any accuracy out of it. But it’s about the quickest way to get the missile functioning better.
yeah, hopefully one day it will be a long range missile
Regard this topic; Its the most reliable 3rd party source you can find.
The ±70° is correct, I’ve seen the sources myself.

It wouldn’t get us much more range, but we’d at least be able to take ~20km shots as opposed to 10.
Most matches are not really long range. Its still more or less a short range furball.
Maybe people should stop getting hyper focused then, they’re not forced to fly into 3 people, especially when those people have missiles suited for short range. Any plane carrying amraams has no excuse for being in a furball at 5 km’s other than their own choice

If this is the game, then its the game. You know how the maps are designed. Everyone sooner or later ends up in the map center and there waits a blob of Rafales with undefeatable MICA’s.
