iran is flying their F-4Ds without an RWR iirc so, take that as you will.
you can literally dodge every missile going defensive, the accel makes it way harder to go defensive??
Fair enough lmfao (can’t wait to watch the F-35I’s sealclub them all without even trying)
The F90s and AIM-54s are significantly easier than any other equivalents because you get a massive ass launch warning and a huge motor trail.
I’m not sure if you know this but I’ve stated this for me explicitly. I don’t know why you’re trying to argue with me over not liking a missile lol
you’re saying something is a gimmick when they’re some of the best fox 3s in-game lmao
if you’re worried about people dodging them keep in mind you can launch them from like 15km and they’d reliably hit
The standard F-14A could as it’s just a F-4J with a slightly easier to use radar, and a tad better flight performance; Fakour-90s however are vastly superior to AIM-7Fs, unlike the standard AIM-54.
F90 is one of the best Fox-3s in game???
Yeah no.
I refuse to argue with that point because it is made in bad faith. You know it is not one of the best, not even close.
Have a good one
if more planes had access to fakours than a single event vehicle they would be used so much more, literally longest range missile with good acceleration and fox 3, any plane would want to have them
- best range
- best accel
- dodging takes actual mental effort
- hard counter to climbers
- incredibly good accel makes it hard to dodge in 15km headons
supposedly not good/a gimmick???
To be honest it need to go up too 13.0 same as F14B it gets way better ARH and is completly braindead
No they can’t I’m not sure if you tested the fakour 90 after buff to 20Gs but they are now almost better than some top tier ARH
The only redeeming quality of the F90 is it is fast.
That’s literally it.
Every other top tier ARH has at least 2 redeeming qualities, so the F90 is at maximum half of the missile those ones are.
TT F-14A could stay at 12.3, its not as good as the Iranian one.
Uptier wise I do agree with the guy is pretty likely, although my point is that Fakour, despite not able to turn very well does have by far the largest propulsion in game, as to notching barely works, so could easily outrange everything but PL12/AIM120 really. Normal F14A though, kinda sad.
Of which it does have a significant advantage in terms of average speed even against R77. He did not say better, but more than half as good as the seekers are all the same, and it is simply poor manoeuvrability which in compensation you get a massive warhead. Worse than top tier for sure, but not by half to say the least.
This is some good bait fr, thing should be at 13.0 imo. The 90’s are just crazy.
Well it can’t hit close ranges like the R-77 or MICA,
Long ranges like all other missiles it’s useless against people who know how to defend (hopefully all top tier players)
Medium ranges everything except the R-77 and MICA will fare better against a defending target because of their G pull, AOA and the fact that they can actually hit cold targets
All missiles have scenarios where you would say “I wish I had X”, the F90 just isn’t one of them.
thing is all of those are at 13.7 the fakour is at the whopping br of 12.3 currently
even if it was at top tier itd still compete,you have never used them if you genuinely believe they’re a gimmick
The only thing it’s good at is long range shots against non defending players, that’s a gimmick.
