FOX-3: Active Radar Homing Missiles

Fly 90 meters above the ground and you’ll be safe, if you’re referring to fox 3

Random question, idk where I heard this but

Doesn’t the r77 shut off its rocket motor if it loses lock and waits until it gets lock again to turn on?

I swear I’ve heard this before somewhere.

no

Sorry I had to look it up, it apparently goes and climbs to a certain altitude and when it regains lock it gets back a lot of momentum.

its between 6-12/6-16

not 6v6, 8v8, 10v10, 12v12, 14v14, 16v16

Might as well just delete all the ARHs, since y’all are too scared to make people learn and instead just give them a Multipathing crutch

I my opinion this will be the death of top tier RB as it will drive players away. This game is suppose to be enjoyable and fun these Fox 3’s will destroy that fun…!!!

Looks funny that people consider Fox-3 as fun killing.

Currently the game wasn’t fun if you were playing everything outside russian equipment (R-73 Cobra Kill, and R-27ER/R-27ET out-ranging/out-tracking/out-classing most equipment in game).

The Fox-3 update, while making the game more focused on Fire then Defend, will kill any furball fight as people trying to reach a Furball situation are simply going to get killed before entering such situation.

The game with Fox-3 will result in Macro-Strategy and Micro-Defending skill, as well as Nav-Skill on maps like Pyrenees

You have to enable the switch, and it will depend on number of players vs Servers ability to withstand an increased amount of Matches at the same time.

Dude they are still flying the A-4.

The F-16 was delivered by April but is not operational in their Air Force yet. Think about how long that’s going to take. Again, I repeat, they are still flying the A-4…

16v16 IR furball clusterfucks are not fun

exactly, Air RB needs FOX-3 with realistic multipathing for the sake of the gamemode itself

People have been saying that since the first time jets were added.

“Top tier will be dead because jets change the game too much”

“Top tier will be dead because guided misisles means players don’t need skill to get kills”

“Top tier will be dead because flares make misisles too easy to dodge”

“Top tier will be dead because radar guided missiles will stop people climbing to high altitude”

Everyone has the same head. Gaijin does not cheat on himself

For now,… devserver is not final ^^"

Could we get the RB 99 (AIM-120B) for the JA37D ?

in that case i would suggest moving it to 12.3 BR (similar to the J-8F)
its top air-to-air loadout would then be 2x RB 74 (AIM-9L) and 4x RB 99 (AIM-120B)

then i would also suggest adding RB 74 (AIM-9L) to the JA37C and increasing its BR to 11.3 (same as JA37D currently)

this would change the gap in swedish fighters from 10.3 → 11.0 → 11.3 → 12.7 → 13.0
to a more gradual 10.3 → 11.3 → 12.3 → 12.7 → 13.0

Ideally, the JA37Di would be added with them at 12.3, so another gap wouldn’t be created, however if not, yes, this should be given them.

can’t hear you crying over the sound of R27ERs uselessly crashing into the ground bc everyone flies at the tree tops.

fox-3s will have the same problem and only punish mistakes harder. why go defending if you can just dip to near the ground without changing directions at all?

Every FOX-1/FOX-3 missile have same problem (yet i had been flying 10m above ground, i always got shot)

And i’m not crying, i’ simply stating differences,…

It is still at you advantages, as MiG-29/Su-27 having speed/altitude advantage, can fire 1st, and so keep me flying on the ground,… instead of letting me pitching up for a S.530D launch that i wouldn’t be able to shot from max range, due to being at lower altitude (-> 40km become 25km range)

What i’m saying is that R-27 carriers have advantages that most people won’t even dare to consider,…

who wouldve thought flying very close to the ground negates the multipathing effect
