It is very easy to die without perfect situational awareness, the AIM-7M dont work sometimes, how can I do better in the F-15A?
Stick with 9M’s since so many people still decide to brawl at 13.0, you dont have the range for AIM 7M vs R27 for the most part so id say if you see Gripen A’s follow some of them, you’re essentially a less mobile version of them but with usable radar missiles. Honestly the F15A is pretty boring because AIM-7’s just dont have the range id want personally but they definitely work, while flying low to the ground look for people high up not paying attention and just sling a missile at them once they are in range, just be careful that people aren’t around you.
You pray for a down tier or you try and sneak in into a furball without anyone noticing
Stay up high no matter what in a downtier. In an uptier, stay low and use the Aim-9Ms. Personally, I had the most success acting like I want an ARH carrier. I climbed just below contrail height, locked the person flanking on the opposite team, lofted my sparrow and fired at 20-25km. Then just played off of my Aim-9Ms until late game. Then you can climb wherever you want.
