what’s the whole purpose of flairs in the game with they are deployed to a heat seeking missile it does absolute dog water
Actually they are massively overperforming compared to IRL.
Most missiles should be far more resistant to flares than they are in game.
By any chance are you flying something with BOL (tornado ADV, Viggen D, F-14B, Gripen, etc) or a Harrier?

He is using the tornado ids wtd61. It is the only plane he has ever played, other than 1 match in the he51 c1.
This is a case of someone buying their way to top tier. His top 17 played vehicles are all either premium or squadron. His most played non-premium is 2 battles in the panther d.

Probably flying in a straight line with afterburners on to bomb a base then, those players made up a good amount of my AIM-9E kills.

All that with less than 400 battles 😭

that’s literally the average gameplay for the f-4c cause it got 0 flares
Tbh we need a min. Rank to be able to buy premium rank (whatever)
So you can only buy a rank 7 premium vehicel if you have 1 rank 6 vehicel bought (for exemple)

that actually makes quite a bit of sense its already there but it doesn’t apply to premiums
Thats what I meant
That could work, but it will never happen because Gaijin wouldn’t make enough money from it. A more reasonable change would be mandatory tutorials for jets and tanks when people buy them.

Yep, large calibre flares should have no issues dealing with most things
can confirm f-111a can juke a su-25’s missile with a single large caliber flare
Yep, unless you are intentionally trying to get shot down, or perhaps are facing something like an IRCCM missile are reacting to it really poorly/it was fired under ideal conditions. 1 LCM will defeat most things.
Being a Tornado WTD61, not a lot to worry about that cant be dealt with 1-2 LCMs in my experience.
Wouldnt be surprised if actually tried dumping a load of chaff or something

Best part is that the F-111A doesn’t even have large caliber countermeasures
Though standard ones work fine too, cutting afterburner is more important than anything, and of course preventing relocking by getting out of the fov before reenabling the afterburner.
or that :D
Looking at his service record above, if I am reading it, he’s only earned 4600rp in the Tornado?
If I read that right, I would doubt he’s unlocked chaff, and @ 11.3 he’s facing a ton of SARH missiles.
