Just need to make fa18c 13.7 and then fa18e go 14.0.
FA18E(and fa18c) just too slow thus can’t give it’s missile a good launch speed,lead to missile less efficiency (no to mention the difference between aim120c and those better missile like mica and r77-1)
I’d rather have decompression (or just the F/A-18E going to 14.0) than putting the F-18C late within MM range of the C early.
Hopefully Gaijin will move the AESA equipped planes to 14.7/15.0 to give the lower aircraft some breathing room soon, but I’m concerned it may not happen.
Respectfully, no. They should be where their at because rank 9 is coming, other airframes should move up to 14.7 and higher if those battle ratings appear too!
We can not have an overloaded or cluster of ARH platforms still being able to face 12.7/13.0 which is certainly worse. Like 13.3-13.7 needs to move airframes out into 13.7-14.0 instead of moving airframes from 14.3-14.0 back into those BRs.
Rank 9 is confirmed to be coming so we dont have to worry about the hornet’s br placement, as long as they don’t push it higher that is
check my post of the F/A-18(14.0) all saying skill issue
Are you smoking crack? It still has shitty missiles that don’t hit anything no matter the range…
Yay let’s go BR compression!! Screw 12.7-13.0 planes!! Who needs balance anyway??
Skill issue, genuinely.
It kinda does, I can easily bleed Su-30s out of chaff and then they are either dead with the next missile or are down on the ground where they are less of a threat. I does not take two brains to understand that more countermeasures give you an advantage.
Since I can be lazy with the notches and just dump chaff while the Su-30 for instance has to notch perfectly and conserve his chaff. This also applies to the Rafale for instance. Flight model is important but the F-15 gets a shitload of chaff to compensate.
If you pick dogfights in an F-15 and expect to win, especially in 14.3 you play the F-15 wrong.
What ? The AIM-120s are by far (ignoring the MICA-EM and by extend the R-77-1) the most consistent missile in the game. Use the C5s for long range and/or the first BVR spam of every match and the As and Bs for everything else.
So what I can gather from this discussion is that decompression AS ALWAYS is needed BADLY. Especially in the range from 12.7 to 14.3.
ahh yes if you ignore its competition its very consistent, what kinda logic is that??
“f18c late as 13.7 and f18e as 14.0 simple as that”
Ignore what competetion ? Speaking of logic, how many fox-3 missiles are in game, by your logic the PL-12, the R-77, the AAM-4, the Derby, the R-Darter, the Fakour-90, the AIM-54A, the AIM-54C etc aren’t competetion ??? I named the two that might be more consistent than the AIM-120. You take my words very out of context or you did not understand what I said.
Do you even play this game, 14.3 consists of 4 Fox3 missiles so i don’t know why your naming other missiles that can be found well bellow the br of the aim120c5 and of the Fox3s at top tier the aim120 is about tied with the pl12 for last place
Ha ha good one.
I can already imagine 12.7 folks like netz, F16AJ and M29’s going against mach 0.9 God throwing amraams left and right.
Yeah buddy, no.
So you did not understand what I said, I never specified the AIM-120-C5 variant. Let me make it more clear, the AIM-120 across all it’s variants is one of the most consistent missiles in the game. That interpretation that I exclusively mean the C5 is yours, not something I said, so you get worked up over something you interpreted wrong.
I even said, “the AIM-120s”.
why are you bringing up the aim120 at brs below 13.7 in the first place , the person you replied to is talking about A 14.3 aircraft what logic would there be to then bring up the aim120 as whole at lower brs, sure the missile is very reliable at lower brs but the general topic is about 14.3 .
“Do you even play the game ?” What missiles can the F-15C Golden Eagle carry ?
My point is that the AIM-120s, FOR ME, because it is MY opinion, is a reliable missile.
The aim120 at 14.3 where it is no longer considered consistent compared to other missiles at the BR
The people I tend to play with disagree but that is how it is. I can get kills with it. They generally never disappoint me when I use them.
