How do I effectively use the vark family?

Currently I have the two varks, basically spaded the A version and stock F version.
I’m using the faardvark and grinding it stock as a absolute PAIN. It’s a brick and don’t even try to turn or lose all your energy. I try to base bomb now and then but rarely, probably 1/10 games you get to actually bomb a base because either some random fighter beat you to it, you get touched by enemy planes/missiles, or you’re just too heavy.
Don’t even think about uptiers because you’ll always get killed by a radar missile The AIM9L is decent but it’s not the same as a R27ER, R27T, or any other radar missile of its BR which will probably always get a kill compared to the IR missiles the varks get, which get distracted by some flares, small or large. Gun fighting is viable but rare since most people will just sling missiles at you and turn away before you engage.

Like, inappropriately touched?

Every time a missile touches someone it’s inappropriate.

You base bomb and you pray. Less you wana go full fighter in which case good luck with that.

Still waiting for the snail to give me air SIM EC instead of whatever the hell naval EC is

Alright I just wanna say, I understand how to vark now. I didn’t understand how to vark before, but now I’ve learned the ways of the vark.

I do not understand…

Avoid confrontation; carry a combined load of bombs and napalm

You won’t reach the bases, so use the bombs against vehicle columns, then drop the incendiary bombs on the respawned bases. Don’t fly high

Use the terrain or fly at medium altitude without using radar

If you’ve dropped your full load, you can still engage in air-to-air combat

Yeah I just realized that lmao. I’ve only been doing this

Battle selection —> Sim —> mode selection

I was being stupid, should’ve clicked on “room list” instead of just using my eyes and seeing if EC is “avaliable” on the menu
(P.S. I finally got the F15E)

Basically what I did for the F111A vark since I couldn’t really do shit against other planes in terms of PVP. The F version on the other hand, I just “orbital striked” people by climbing around 5k meters then flying straight until I see enemies below, boom and zoom missile sling, and pray for a kill.

Don’t we all get railed by Aim-9’s tryna go up our giant hole in the back of our plane engine, which makes our planes bust explode everywhere?

Happens a lot to me
