Weird thing is, sometimes as you say it will lose lock, sometimes it continues normally as if nothing happened
It is very inconsistent and weird. On su30mkk, for example, I have never ever such a problem, despite them having worse radar.
Well its a newer premium so they gave it a cookie ofc…meanwhile ADTW being older premium is used up thus none cares
Yup in current meta it’s pretty much turd
Almost 9/10 matches, F-2A ADTW will get uptiered to 13.7 or straight 14.0, it can’t do jack shit
The only worth 13.0 in current meta are Kfir C10 and F-14 Iran cos Fox 3
Because that all 13.0 are equally turd
The only real way to fix BR 13.0 is massive compression of 13.3+ aircrafts

Even if you dont get the full 14.0 uptier…13.3 provides plenty of options to get spammed by fox 3 and 99% of the battles they are in with you…its just a matter of luck and map (if you can mask their radar with terrain) that determines the outcome of your battle, experience and success…yeah in some cases you can spank the unsuspecting enemy as always but 9/10 times if you dont fly suicidally you end up with a 0 at the end of the battle and shot down because avoiding missiles, spending time in the battle doesnt give you anything nowadays if you dont hit something…
F-2A does just fine wdym
It’s literally one of the best 13.0s
See this for my explanation: F-2A ADTW should be 12.7 - #22 by MiGoon_Fox-3
Its not turd
You’re just bad
It’s absolutely great in air RB too
You just need to learn how to maximise sparrows’ performance with the FM
Yep, im sure it is, I beleive its the only ESA equipped SARH slinger, which just sounds like actually interesting combo too
Look through my explanations of why it’s good here
I am absolutely fine with using it at 13.3 nowadays and I’m fairly confident I will survive at 13.7 now

The T-2 is the same, but lighter, also 2 missiles less, you will do fine on it
Yeah… but id not want to touch it until they actually fix the Hawks, especially the Hawk 209 with its missing radar I’ve not even played the 200 or 200 RDA yet, cba to grind the SLs
How about you share how to play it then? In a FOX-3 lobby. Not a generalist explanation? We will all gladly appreciate it.
For example, su-30s on your videos never act like that for me, they usually will sling a missile towards you and instantly go full notch, so even if you commit to the aim-7ms radar, death from a pitbull is assured.

Yeah, that works vs lvl 10s in their brand new Su-30MKK flying like absolute retards because they are still trying to figure out how anything works except for how to bomb bases, the F-2 will eat shit the second you face someone with some skill

TRK MEM is a thing you know
generally I will just shoot at then, wait as long as I can in a crank before notching. this gives my missile as much guidance as possible before TRK MEM takes over
once I notched their missile I will just instantly turn in and shoot the next AIM-7, I use the sparrow as a pressure missile, force them to do something. I’m not letting them just push me without pressure
next thing is positioning
F-2A has the second best 13.0 radar, you get amazing awareness, it lets you position extremely well in order to avoid having to face flankers in 1v1 situations often or you can find them and shoot at them before they can see you which more than makes up for the speed of the AIM-7
I am not saying the F-2 is some godly plane that will beat a flanker any day (the premium ones are 1000% undertiered)
but it is definitely more capable than you are making it out to be
you need to work on your positioning and awareness while learning missile mechanics first, then complain about a great plane being “terrible”

This plane have to go down on battle rating definetly, or it needs to get some fox3s, btw if i need to say about top tier planes at the moment su30 mkk is op as F****CK, MAKE IT 14.0!!
no it does not
its stronger than a few 13.0 fox 3 planes.
main issue is BR compression

It is substantially stronger than any 12.7 at the moment (even including the F-15s that should be 13.0), the only way it could go down is with nerfs.
Which would instantly make it 13.7 btw.
