Anyone got the AESA FGR.4? How’s it perform on live?
I imagine that if an ASRAAM accelerates to a conservative Mach 5, and then starts doing all sorts of maneuvering to catch a target. Then yeah I could see it heating up that much with all that energy now being turned into lift, pumping heat into “just” 88 kg worth of mass. All I can read in my 5 minutes of lazy googling late at night, is ASRAAM hitting about mach 3.
Maybe Meteor isn’t as “draggy” in it’s maneuvering, and it is also a bigger heatsink at nearly 200kg. Maybe that is why it’d heat up less?
ASRAAM (88,91kg) with the same drag coefficient as CAMM* is able to reach mach 5+ in Statshark, 10km altitude, 1200km/h at launch
am i dreaming too much?
Ive got it… But stock grind is just impossible.
Took me an hour to grind out chaff.
Even base bombing in SB just didnt work
It’s funny to hear this from someone who claimed that a 20 degree difference is not significant.
You have completely lost me…
What does 100% stock and thus no chaff, no G-suit, no booster, heck not even expert crew. have to do with having an extra 20 degrees of FoR?
You cant defeat ARH without chaff if theyve fired inside the LSZ

Wow, German main cope has reached an entire new level. Not being able to do well in a 100% stock aircraft is a skill issue now.

Unlocking the chaff is a matter of one battle, on any plane in this game. Let me remind you that previously, the stock plane had nothing but guns.
When you are immediately killed by a missile you cannot defend against there is little you can do.
Yes, for aircraft like 3 years ago, this hasnt been the case at all. Last Typhoons had the exact same loadout 2x Aim-9M + 2x AMRAAM.
Try doing the F3 with onyl 2x Aim-9Ls that was really hard

Hint: in the first battle you don’t have to fly higher than 60 meters.
Hint, MP doesnt work against any ARH fired from above. Or did you not know that?

It doesn’t work if you don’t know how to use it.
Yeah dude if they loft it, mp doesn’t effect it as much thats the reason why BUKs can still hit you when flying low

The BUK has a huge amount of explosives, which is the only reason it deals damage when it misses.
This has nothing to do with the FOX-3; simply avoid flying directly into the missile, and it won’t hit an aircraft flying at altitudes below 60 meters. MP in the game is currently too cheaty; I’d be happy if it were toned down so more people would fly at higher altitudes.
Which is fine, when you realise you have to unlock MAWS to know where the missile is coming from
Yeah MP is rubbish

First game with chaff unlocked. Doing just fine. Top tier, especially with all the AESAs just doesnt work without stock chaff, which is something that has been asked for years now
200 FoR and AMK is gunna be fun

So stock grind becomes even more painful and the meta gets even more stale?
In my battles, I still see that most players use MP. That’s real monotony. People don’t want to learn how to play and use the easiest tool.

Anyone remembers the time with only Stock Cannon?
When not even the RWR was stock, good old days :P

SURELY with r27er now being somewhat meta again gaijin will actually finally fix the MAW dropping flares for SARH missiles (that report is still open btw)
