Fine-tune your laser aim? You’re not forced to use the standard lock…

You mostly do not fly without atgms at top tier it’s just not worth it
And tbh it does help you as you Dan spot your targets easier and plan on ambush
maybe later in the match, but if you do it early in the game you’re gonna know where ppl generally are in my experience
helis in general aren’t worth it tbh

Russia has missile that have more range than the pantsir so a su 39 or su 25 sm3 can just stay 20, 25 km away and fire the Kh-29 or Kh 38 that will come in this update
and all of them are subsonic without thermals would rather use something like harrier or f-16 instead of su-25 …
if su25t and su39 had its historical thermals would be better

The pantsir can still hit you in an F16 but if u have a missile that goes 25 kms that is not a problem
if the f-16 is flying straight yes otherwise good luck
Of course I expect you to dodge the panstir but it is kinda weird because sometimes it works and sometimes you just die
And all but Japan have GBUs with more range than Pantsir.

Really?
yes all gbus can go absurd ranges in game
Well that explains a lot tho, thanks Alvis you are helpful
Yes. The effective range against fixed-wing aircraft is not 18km, it’s rather less.
And GBU range exceeds the effective range of Pantsir. Of course stay defensive, the missile still has some maneuverability at those ranges.

you can still work around the lack of good optics in russian CAS, its not like most of my CAS was ever given optics either (I never really unlocked the later stuff, mostly used MavA/MavB/GBU-8)
