simple gaijin thinks F14 is to strong due to it haveing aim 54
Well, i honestly think that gaijin just forgor. Because F-4J\S have 19km ACM and HMD.
un ironically the F4J radar performs better at guiding sparrows then the AWG-9
Well, i don’t think that better sidewinders is a way to solve F-14 issue. Simply because F-14 is not a platform that loves to be at Sidewinder range. And after how many years of F-14 simply dominating i don’t even really care if it should get buffs or not. I use IRIAF, it’s pretty allright at 13.0 with 4 Fakours and 2 R-27Rs. Maybe radar should be less schizo, i dunno, it works well enough for me.
B model is was the best dogfighter at its br before the F18 with its AOA limiter was added making it obsolete in CQC dog fights and The F14 has a AOA switch but gaijin says no
Oh no, another jet became obsolete after gaijin introduced something new, literally never happened before. Not every jet should be or stay meta forever.
well the meta they added wasnt a meta that should have killed it the F14 had same AOA switch as the F18 a paddle switch on the stick which made it so you could defect the Elavators on maxium Angle allowing way more pull and at this point it wasnt really meta anymore aim 120s thrashed it in BVR same R27ERS it was its only gimmick now its just a heap of metal every american pilot has to get throug to play the F18
it is only the HMD their ACM is still at 10km
and only after several months of F-15s dominating the bracket with 19km HMD while MiG-29 and Su-27 were stuck with a 10km one.
still doesnt make sense the ACM range on the F4J is farther then on F14A or B

that is my understanding as well bc the HMS slaves the radar and IRST into an direction and they then try to lock whatever is in that direction
so the HMS should be limited by the sensor you are currently using
well, i can’t confirm right now, but i saw info that NATO HMS is actually programmed to have 19km range or something like that.
Like anyone with hmd uses the ACM. Of course it’s the HMD
another similar buff

‘similar buff’
it has nothing to do with the radar at all
and also it dosent have anything to do with the dev server just like this topic
so it will just get deleted once the update goes live
For F-14 cases, export restrictions are not the only issue.
The NATOPS supplementary manuals containing descriptions of armaments and radar, sensors are literally classified.
Particularly with later manuals, some have been digitized, making them impossible to find unless you were F-14 pilot/RIO or Grumman employee.
You mean the F-15 HMD being limited to 19km?
when everyone else is limited to 10km
