I’ve literally had a guy roll and move maybe 10 metres left and it caused my falcon to just miss the missiles are trash only useable against someone stalled out and at that point well you’ve got a great gun anyway
(talking about the sps-k like it’s a threat when the 21S exists. Like, hello)

That one is better vs dumb newer players who fall for the radar headon at the start of the match. Spsk I feel is better vs more competent players
With its worse than MiG-21F-13 flight model and picking between either not having a gun and only having two missiles or picking to be a MiG-21F-13 with a worse FM that happens to get 2 R-60s? How exactly is this dangerous to anybody?
Mig 21S is a 10.3 airframe FYI. It dogwalks practically everything it faces bar the ariete/mirage IIIC (IIIE is a heavy pos that no one should ever touch)

sps-k acutally has an advnatage over the 2
yes… 2 missiles, with like 4 major downsides that do far more than balance it out
While it’s still overperforming quite a bit in terms of lift and AoA vs it’s real life counterpart, downgrading the FM to justify lowering the BR would give it the same issue as the F-104A; too unmanouverable to easily score a kill, too fast to be chased and killed.
It’s a lot more comfortable in EC air sim since compared to f100d or f106a it has a powerful radar with iff and one of the best ingame gyro gunsights, but that doesn’t matter for air RB.
Yeah, Im still hardpressed to justify it being below 9.3 given its supersonic.
With decompression, it should be on the bottom end of supersonics, but I think 9.3 should be the hard minimum currently.
But yes, they should get FM nerfs too
My R2Y (maximum attainable speed is around 900kph) getting hammered by supersonic F101C… (it got put to 9.0)
How do I have a skill issue, I was just saying that the “uncatchable jet with missiles” doesn’t have missiles.

I still prefer way better weapons over an engine upgrade, but that’s just me personally
He’s kinda right you know? Most of the time I get a kill with any of those missiles, a short cannon burst would do the same job, since these work only on very slow and out of energy targets
I like the radar missiles to delete the odd fat bomber without risking my own jet, but that’s about it.
Different playstyles, I get it. Personally I prefer performance at those BR’s, allows me to pick and choose my fights and the insane acceleration of the 21S for 9.7 allows for easy exits from crowded areas or losing situations to reset. Plus the R3R is genuinely a formidable missile for the BR, not many jets get the luxury of carrying 4 all aspect uncaged missiles.
