Jets with IRCCM is just unfair at 11.3 (SU-39, A10C, Jaguar IS, SU-25) There needs to be decompression from 11.0 - 13.0

Damn, how many flares does that thing get?

We’ve also got the Jaguar IS, 11.3, Magic II’s, same IRCCM as the R-73.

It can get 60 with no chaff but I run 40/20 so 20 individual bursts of flare as they pop in 2 instead of 1 like F-18 even though its the same dispenser unit lol.

I suppose the issue might be with jets having IRCCM when they can face jets as early as 10.3.

There seem to be many premiums like this lol.

If you want decompression, then ask for decompression.

Let me change the title lol.

I think this is more fitting as the issue spans a few planes not just 1.

on the harrier its next to impossible because of how gaijin modelled heat signatures on aircraft. Harrier is one of the hottest burning planes in game when it should be one of the coldest of its BRs. as for other aircraft you need to spam a load of flares and you don’t get too many that low down

Having the CM fires off in sets of 2 does not help the issue as you have very limited pre flaring windows.

I dont have too big of an issue with head on missiles as I bait out head ons very early to avoid it (unless I know I can gun them) but I shouldn’t have to chicken out as early as I do

Nah you should get 60 flares not 30 lol

you flared too late.

cant really afford to preflare too hard in a FRS1. you get 30 flares and 30 chaff. they go real fast

My guy I don’t know if you can see it but I was flaring before he even fired the missile.

Even still I flared before launch. You can see my 2 flares far left.

First death that is lol.

It is.

I could somehow agree with you, but cmon. These jets undeperform almost everthing they faced.
If you cant outturn and kill Su-39/25, A-10, Jaguar with your Harrier maybe you just doing something wrong?

The IRCCM can be easily countered if done right.

For FoV IRCCM, you should be able to flare them like any other missile from front-aspect. I have fired r73s at jets from less than 2km out head-on and they got flared.
For rear-aspect, once they get within about 2-2.5km, you cant really flare it.

For seeker shut-off IRCCM, flare then change direction.

The first video is aim9l which doesnt have IRCCM.

Where is the missile in the second one?
