i had no chance even if i didnt go slow as mig 23 can chase me with ease and mig 21 can meet me in a dogfight

because had it been any other missle than something irrcm i would have lasted longer but its the one missile that i couldnt flare normally

wasnt even a 3rd party it was a 4th party already soloing multiple other migs

Magic 1 or Magic 2?

magic 2

Assuming you were fairly low and slow, likely sat on AB to maintain power in a turn, anything would have probably killed you if fired in rear-aspect from close range.

But Magic II isnt really all that special other than its absolute rear-aspect performance and good off-boresight performance at higher BRs

from my experince at least it usally wouldnt have hit me like R60M

And here lies your entire problem, not the F-1C having magic 2 or magic 2 being too strong at 12.0.

my problem is he died TEN SECONDS after by flying into a mountain

he never should have one had he had any missile that required skill he would have died

That’s just American Mains.

hes a F1C 200 he slammed into the mountain behind me he was level 5

So 1 noob bombing in their 12.0 Fighter gets killed by an idiot who pancakes almost immediately afterwards.

Yep, that sounds like a perfect summary of the 11.7-13.0 BR range, from experiencing the uptiers I had to that range when playing 11.3 the last couple days.

to make it worse i only get the annoyiing crapping flare pods that shoot up and are less effective

im not bombing im in a F4J i was in a dogfight the noobs bombung where my team

I thought for a second that you actually meant I as in yourself. That was my mistake.

Still, the F-4J has different strengths over the F-1C so both are fine as they are when compared directly.

I mean seen how much he is ranting about it, he probably was.

first it was .5 now 1-2? Make up your damn mind mate

i saw it and flared at .5
