i mean magic 1 ? fav missile btw

Oh, in which case, better than Aim-9G (at least that is what the RN considered going into the Falklands) but nothing much to right home about. A fairly average rear-aspect missile for the most part

i feel its a pretty good equal to 9L

Ah yes, rear aspect only missile equal to 9L

to be fair for the head on thing why not just use the gun ? at that range

to be fair just pop flares and use gun

Nah, 9Ls slaps it silly, unless in a rear-aspect shot in a hard turn fight, at which point, the higher G missiles like Magic 1 and R-60 come into their own. But then thats just employing the 9L incorrectly rather than it being inherrently bad.

Make up your mind dude

only time you really need all aspect is at gun range so

For various reason, maybe you’ve not gotten your guns to bear or want to hit the target before getting into gun range. A short range, late fired R-60 or Magic II is pretty potent and very hard to defend against.

Considering both missiles acceleration yeah

exactly the only time i have trouble dodging these things is when im in a dogfight with more than one plane as they can just boom and zoom and i dont have many flares as im a F4-J so preflaring ends with early death

Right?

This is fairly standard for basically anything.

it happens alot cause your team uselly dies fast because Im A F4S and i GOT BOMBS DURRHHH

At which point. Why are you going low and slow?

If you are outnumbered, the last thing you should be doing is commiting to slow dogfighting where its easy to get BnZ’ed / third partied. Keep your speed up and use your BVR

And thats the magics fault how, being 3rd partied by anything isnt special its rather your average match. And going slow in a Phantom is also your fault here
