you mean the flanker that when it was added would lose a dogfight to an f4E? The r77 having 25 more overload doesn’t matter when it doesn’t have the enengy to even get close to you. Also funny you american mains love to forget NATO platfroms are much faster so the aim120 will have much more energy off the rail so more range than the r77-1 regardless

It’s fun that you say so in general when the ONLY thing Russia doesn’t statistically dominate ordnance-wise is in having the best APFSDS round perfornance (that belongs to Germany/2A6s or A7s).
Anything else, from having the best Helis/Planes AGMs, SARH, —now— ARH and SAM system belongs EXCLUSIVELY to Russia, as opposed to what happened to the 120 where up to at least 6 nations were fitted with it.
Yet Russia get new missile France doesn’t
Despite being similar Missile
yea it was horrible but they are still complaining even with all the buffs in particular for the su27sm
the missiles arent bad they just dont perform good at longh range
its like calling the aim9m a bad 11.7 missile because it cant keep up with the r23et/r24et at 10km+
mica(haven’t used it but it seams like a better r77 on the stat card ) and r77 are amazing at short to medium ranges (which is were most fighting happens in-game)
I’m going to be honest the MiG-29 is not fine at 12.7 since it doesn’t have the radar to efficiently use r-27er’s or the flight model to use r-60ms its a pretty sorry plane all around
leave the mig-29 out of that list its flight model is dogshit

I’d prefer if Denmark wasn’t completely unplayable for redside please
Zzzzz
It’s amazing how you think there are only 2 nations in the game…
I don’t even have a grinded Russia, the only 2 Russian vehicles I have is a Yak3P that I got in a box and an event Su25.
I don’t even play Russia…
This just proves the point that most USA mains only knows how to complain about everything and cry about russia.

that was exactly my point that the big 3 always believe they are the worst
(or big 2 given Germany is pretty bad until getting the euro fighter which has its own problems apparently )
Debatable, in GRB rn, FnF carriers like the Spike Hawk and Tiger UHT is just overall better due to being mostly immune to SPAA
I’ll give you that
It’s only better against an AMRAAM in a straight line, due to its massive drag it will be worst at notching targets, MICA is a better WVR ARH
You can blame doctrine for this, yet besides that even the best SPAA in game suffers from CAS no matter what nation of CAS
You failed to mention the following best btw:
Best plane (is it also russian?)
Best tank (I wonder if it’s russian)
It turns out it’s even worse, you’re based on assumptions rather than personal experience.
I’d pretend to be suprised, but given your previous ‘arguments’ about calling out mains into the matter, makes sense that you never played anything in perspective.
wth is this argument? AIM-9M is a SR IR missile, why are you even comparing it to LR IR missiles? It can fair well against R-73, especially since it has debatably a better IRCCM.

but Russian plane have big problems, compared to nato aircraft.
the few Russian aircraft that I played in the Chinese nas Hugarian Tt have a huge gap when compared to NATO aircraft.
the r77 yes it is the second worst missile in the game for bvr, it only loses to derby, Russian radars are horrible, The j11’s RWR is archaic for 13.0, the radar scan speed is also another problem, the number of countermeasures in general is much scarcer than on NATO aircraft (with exceptions).
I’m grinding USA now as my 6th nation, the difference is stark from the other nations…
the US mains had to be ashamed of saying that they “suffer”

The mig29 radar is absolutely fine for what it needs. You also have HMD and TWS which is great for 12.7
The r60m is better than aim9L for an aggressive playstyle. If a target is aware of you id rather have r60m than aim9L, wait wait…I’ll explain.
Both are easily 1 flared in most circumstances.
But the r60m is better for chasing down targets and spamming them when you are at 0.5km or less from their rear, in case they are nose countering your gun shots.
Then it is also much better in headons.
Now regarding its FM, its still great for 12.7, a f16 or a yak141 will crush you in a duel but you can hang with everything else. Most of your duel strategy is forcing 1C with verticals, can even work against the average F16 player.
In my opinion the mig29 is a better 12.7 than the F16 ADF just because of the 27er
Hasn’t even been released yet and already the anti USA “IT’S NOT FAIR !” whining has begun. Easy decision tree with you USA haters - is it Russian? BUFF is it USA? NERF ! And your logic usually involves throwing a dart and painting a target around it. Where were you Russian bias balance hawks when the Su27 was stomping everything left and right with R-27ER? Not a peep from you then huh?? Gawd I wish Elon Musk would buy Gaijin … 🙄
This has been a bi-product of compression for a long time!
Harrier FA.2 and AV8B+ at the same br even tho one is better by every metric
F4JUK and F4S at the same br but the F4JUK is worse in many aspects (and these are both premium)
F/A-18 A and C have marginal difference between them, and whilst having 10 missiles at 12.7 is quite a few (big number = scary)
12.7 - F16ADF with better flight performance and the same missile kit (just less)
12.7 - YAK 141 with similar flight performance
12.7 doesnt really have as many options for air, the aircraft are all pretty compressed and sandwiched between FOX3 br and High performance IR, with lots of them having neither.
I do think decompression is a must, becuase at 12.7 the A and C will be good, but killable (60cm). At 13.0 they will be awful and youll have another F14B situation but without the extra countermeasures and AIM54C.
TLDR, they will be fine at 12.7. If they turn out to be super oppressive move them up
Yes, they crazy. Because F/A-18A should be at 12.0, F/A-18C early should be at 12.3, and F/A-18C late should be 13.3
apparently on wifi in the hospice
It better because of TVC make it very good at close range really but not by much 50G on R-77 might not pull hard as mica but most of missile need some distance all MICA can do better than R-77 is off bore shot at close range which missile will pull soon after it off the rail (really how many times people shooting fox3 at extreme angle anyway?) nothing more both of them have similar range maybe MICA even less due to TVC nature of this game overall kills i get from MICA is around 7-10KM which is basically any missile can do that
I don’t know much about how it performs on Rafale because I use it on Mirage 2000 but probably not much different.
Extreme Angle is one thing but having great maneuverability is important to avoid what I experienced with the derby a while ago
We’re the missile just passed above AND below the target aircraft because the of the rail pull just wasn’t strong enough
