and the MiG-29A’s radar (12.7) is even worse than the one in the Su-27, which is also a bad radar for 13.0 (and that’s why it’s paired with R-27ER), and it’s at 13.3 with it’s mediocre RWR.
i believe the F-14A IRIAF could do good at 13.3, especially knowing the IRIAF’s players and how they play.
F14 fm is not that. It is heavy and take a bit to get up to speed.
Aim54. R77 is good at close range but sucks at long range.
Yeah, russian radars tend to be stuck on that one slow scan mode which makes getting a lock hard. But they do much better at holding the lock.
The only gameplay it would have is firing from 40km+ out and hoping the enemy doesnt know how to play. Any closer and stuff like r77-1 and aim120c will put the f14 into the ground.
Similar reason why the mig25 is not like 11.7. Both jets need alt to work but higher br jets are able to fully counter that.
it sucks most of the time, i had a better experience with R-77-1 doing the same thing i did with R-77 back in time than what i have done with the R-77 nowdays.
what about launching Fakours to multipathers? most Hornets multipath and the explosive mass of the Fakour makes it a very deadly missile even when the enemy is multipathing (no way it doesn’t get damaged by splash damage). that’s what i do with R-77-1s to secure some kills.
I would sure hope you are having a better time with the r77-1 than the r77
Is possible but you need to be at alt for that. When you are up that high, you are a nice target for the top tier ARH

That’s dumb. You should not be going mach 1.3 directly towards an F-14. Learn game sense. Use your radar.Use your RWR. Anticipate. pre-crank. You’re basically telling me to dodge you flicking me in the eyeball instead of me just not letting you get within 1 inch of my eyeball
You’re not making yourself look any better to any outside observers.
because I don’t let that happen to me? It’s extremely easy to avoid. I would have to go far out of my way to have it happen and even then most IRIAF players are launching all of their fakours in BVR and not at 10km
I can prove things too if they aren’t just skill issues that don’t have a direct evidence. I do it regularly.
Never said I was, but you don’t get to say I’m not being valid lol
@ItzMikeyzWRLD-psn
Can I say something?
I reckon Fakour-90 itself is a decent missile ‘for its legacy BR when it was originally introduced’.
AIM-54 with sterioid.
probably better than some ‘short-ranged shit’ such as Darter/Derby?
Still, not compatible with a solid option such as AIM-120 or PL-12.
But F-14A Fuselage limit things off
It seems it is good to punch shits with bad RWR just like how F-14A IRIAF got punched against AIM-120? seems the same bad RWR problem.
It probably could go up to 13.3 if decompression happens and some of the current 12.0 climb up to 12.3BR (With some improvement on loadouts probably)
But not in the current situation of Su-30MK staying at 13.3, and F-15A at 12.7
(140% Joke take: I want to shove it up to 13.3 for nothing but hatred of F-14 series inside WT, while I enjoy F-14 outside of WT, as you know…)
Anyway, I disagree with OP. Even though Fakour has some advantages in some circumstances
Not with the current AIM-9P?
Man, F-14A IRIAF is the strangest shit to balance in this game, IRIAF acts like an upgrade on normie F-14 even on this part ffs. :/
I don’t think she is 12.7BR equivalent such as Harrier GR.7 does, but not good enough to tie them with Su-30MKs.
So better keeping her on 13.0 would be safe move?
Btw,
A sign a F-14 is probably sending you a fakour/phoenix, take notes please
here’s another sign
Here is that radar on the MF1 tracking a F14 22km in cold aspect that you said it couldnt do
pretty sure u’re the only one caring about that rn, outperformer.
prove it then, prove IRIAF users don’t launch their Fakour-90s at 10km.
oh true, u won’t cuz u prefer to yap about random things than proving ur point.
u haven’t proved anything till now.
u aren’t lol.
??? not practically provable, but anybody with a brain knows they are doing bvr with their loadouts and that this is a rarity
rare, a real F-14 player wouldn’t lock ur plane, just a stupid user would for “obvious reasons” u know, outperformer.
i will take note of ur arguments so i can use them against u like i love to do with u and ur alternate reality :)
at 79m/s? bro u sure u’re locking a F-14? that looks like a bird, something the F-35 would lock on a casual day.
what it needs is good irs and to stay at 13.0
Which one could you propose to her?
hell naw AIM-9P is decent if u know how to use and it already has amazing BVR weaponry even if players don’t use it for it (since BVR died when Su-30SM and Rafale got released).
AIM-9L prob.
You don’t need a hard lock, you receive every single TWS scan. It just isn’t going to have a track warning with a dotted line.
Ok?
Yes? It’s the same jet from the prior pictures?
when i lock F-14s the speed is around 300-700m/s. 79m/s is like a missile running from u, except u tell me u and the F-14 were flying at 200km/h at the same time.
I just told you he was turned COLD?
That reading is relative closure speed to the RADAR, not it’s actual speed. Hence why it goes into the negatives when you lock someone in cold aspect.
Given the heading information also available, that means the F-14 is flying away from the F1C at around a 45 degree angle, but the F1C is still fast enough to close the distance by 79 m/s.

in that case it would be 20m/s or negative speed, MF1 isn’t that fast to reach a F-14.
