Chaff shouldnt affect pulse doppler. But only in a head-on situations. Will potentially affect radar lock in rear-aspect, though not all aircraft have all-aspect PD. Aircraft like the F4s probably wont get PD lock in rear aspect.

Wait until he uses the other F-4S AKA the F-14A.
F-4S is good.
you shouldnt bomb in a phantom. they are great fighters especially the f4s
This is not just a you problem. It is a problem that has affected American teams across the entire 11.3-12.3 BR range: the F-4S is one of the most popular rank 7 premiums and by far the most common activity in it is bombing. . . which distorts the statistics of other american vehicles because the America + Japan combo loses due to bombing phantoms. They make a business at losing. They are amazing at losing.
That means the F-5E players are losing way too often when they get uptiered (which is not uncommon) and it distorts F-5 stats, which is why the F-5E is at a BR of 10.7 clubbing the living hell out of everything up to 11.0.
PSA: stop bombing in the F-4S. The plane’s weapon + performance kit is honestly fine and the only better 11.3 plane is the MiG-23MLD.
Then don’t load up on 6 tons of bombs. You have a PD radar and sparrows, that’s enough for good air to air fights, plus AIM-9Hs.
Because it’s easier and you’re more likely to at least get some RP and SL out of a match as running a strict A2A loadout against technologically superior opponents is a hard gamble.
And yet it easily outruns strike aircraft like the Tornado

If you play with a plane of the same rate as yours, Phantom Jet is not bad and you can at least play normally, but I got tired, the rate always goes up in the game and it just makes you nervous.
The only jet rate 11.3 that can deal with high rates is the MiG 23. The development team should really think about this matchmaking. No matter how professional you are, it is still not fair. This game does not only have professional players but also regular players. Radar that most of the time does not lock on the target at all. Most of the players come stuck to the ground. We are really sick of this purchase, never buy this jet.
Definitely, most of the people who buy this jet are not professional players and want to explore America with it.
The game’s matchmaking is ridiculously painful. I’m willing to wait 10 more minutes to at least be in a game that matches my rate.
Even in the tank, sometimes I am top rated and I see people whose rate is lower than mine can’t even do the slightest damage to me and I feel guilty, believe me, this situation is not fair at all and makes the players even more angry. he does. Our goal is to enjoy this game because it is entertainment, but this approach of the Gaijin development team only increases the nerves among the players.
Same problem, every time i play wtih F4S you can see 3 players with F14 and in first wave each of them kill 4 or 3 person aim54 12.3~11.3 br it’s impossible to play . they say radar is good but even with that radar you can lock on anybody when you stick to ground
When the F-14 in to a lower rate, it becomes like a butcher
aim54 can’t even be dodged
F4S only has 30 chafs and 30 flares
You can’t even get close to the F-14. I’d rather have the MiG-29 on my enemy team than the F-14
I am really tired of this situation
Every match I play, F-14 is in the opposing team, isn’t F-14 American, why should I see Americans as the enemy team?
Are you unironically suggesting you have easier time dodging R-27ERs with 35G pull than AIM-54s with 17G pull?

The MiG-29 missile is better, but its radar is not as good as the F-14 to be able to hit from a far distance
F-14As radar is actually similiar to radar on F-4J/S, but it has TWS.
As such its easy to notch, and even then you actually dont need to notch is radar, phoenixes pull 17Gs, you can defeat them by cranking.

It’s the A, so max 10G🙏
I was going by statcard, but if their true pull is only 10G that makes it ecen funnier if people get killed by them.
You cant kinematically dodge a Phoenix at range its got the same AOA as an R-13M1
The A,B and C are all the exact same performance wise besides a few minor differences the only change between the A and B to the C variant is a better onboard radar so the C can guide itself better if anything because of the weight increase the C is actually worse than the A as it has slightly worse acceleration
I swear to God, I’m the only one with the down tire jet, everyone else is up, I’m tired of Gaijin with this matchmaking.
