F14B needs attention

F14B is also missing it’s CW illuminator slaving to the TISEO (which would dramatically improve tail-chase and beam aspect reliability of the Sparrows with the AWG-9)

And //technically// the F14A was tested with VTAS during AIMVAL iirc

There’s a lot wrong with the F-14B, like how the TISEO is supposed to help slave the radar on a target and help guidance even if you lost lock, or that the AIM-54C is supposed to have a reduced smoke trail. It would probably fit better at 12.3 if most things were fixed and given AIM-9M.

And I just remembered the TISEO is supposed to have a scanning pattern like an IRST to lock aircraft.

this is clear proof that the soviets are better at top tier since very 11.3 for the sole fact their flares point upwards AND are large caliber. This makes the flares live a lot longer than NATO whose devices point downwards making the countermeasures eat the ground as soon as they’re expelled and being left behind in case you are slightly higher. A single flare is enough to deter an aim9m from side aspect and a couple of flare pops can deter a magic 2 from a 1.5km rear aspect full burner target. Meanwhile NATO has to cope with the standard caliber flares which should actually be hotter and burn longer than russian’s LCCM because it has been reported that being large made them start to burn later, reach the highest temp later and also spend all their energy on powering up rather than keeping the fire on.
But that’s what it is. Gripen OP? How OP? Russian mains have all the power to kill it without engaging. It was just a distraction. Now look at it, basically a block 10 with a HMD and a blue cockpit instead of mexico yellow filter.

a lot of sarh missiles in game? It has lower track rate than the 530ds which are awful. What do we have at that br? Skyflash Super T.E.M.P. which are worse than the 11.3 abomination that is the r24r coupled to a radar that vastly surpasses all nato aircraft in the game.

and for those that say nah you’s just an ameritard main coping I say no, i fly the mig21 smt and even despite getting constant uptiers i feel it does better than the f5e at 10.7 itself.

What track rate are you talking about?

Drop the “ameri” and you’ll be correct, it doesn’t matter what nation you play.

Queue the personal attacks that you’re known for!

What else would I expect from you?

Kind of hard to tell at this point… You have 102 topics, all of them consisting solely of whines and copes, 13 of which were made in the last week.

Scrolling through your topics, I don’t see any remote correlation. You go from whining about a flavor-of-the-hour aircraft, to “nerf these objectively better guns!”, then to the BR of another random aircraft.

My personal favorite is Do I have horrible RNG?

I don’t see a name in the files for “reliabilityoftrackingatarget?”
I didn’t ask for a list of missiles, I asked for an explanation.

of course, i spend the whole time on the forum insulting people calling them dumbasses/stupid/retarded and that they have a skill issue, right? right.

and all of them are right. Or do you really are that delusional to think that the aim7m which randomly runs out of energy out of the damn nowhere are balanced to r27er’s that literally act like AMRAAM 5 seconds before arriving to the target?

huh? I’ve been consistent on my “copes” because the problems have been equally consistent. Not my problem if you have zero experience with these or flew them when they were meta.

Le me when muh files

(AIM7M)

(super 530d)

t00k me only 5 minutes to look it up.

actually the 530d’s have worse track rate than the aim7m, but the radars guiding it are usually better so, who cares.

(empty space so that you can fabricate a personal attack towards you)

Yes? You are?

Yes, I’m sure they are. That’s why in every topic there’s a dogpile against you, and you seemingly go silent less than 50 messages in with a majority of your topics.
Correction, on average you have 6 comments per topic.

The hell are you talking about?

The only thing consistent about them is the amount you make, and the fact that you get unimaginably dunked on in each and every one.

And it’s clear you have no clue what you’re looking up… rateMax is the maximum slew rate of uncaged seekers. It is entirely irrelevant to SARH missiles.

Do any of these have mechanically aimed antennae or receivers?

Sure mate, you seem to have mastered it in your other several hundred threads.

“wahhh, my only point of contention was proven wrong!! What should I do?!!?!”

Ah, yeah, say I’m gaslighting.

So much for being right though, don’t you think?
