Didn’t check last time, as i used my own.
Tho kinda sucks now.

SPAAs randomly intercepting rockets, SAM launch sites are as annoying as before (or even more, since at the lower bracket many planes do not have ANY RWR), no premade lineups.

You guys are great at obliterating every somewhat enjoyable game mode in this game, well done o7

not really you still get SL and RP and the game mode will be permanent your friend will enjoy it

F117 does not even work

Great! Looks like I can finally use the Q-5 early on its intended role!

No I wanna keep using my A-10 for ground pounding. Just don’t allow any loadouts with those missiles or something like that. Also why remove F-117? It’s stealth doesn’t even work because the AIs don’t use their radar for finding targets, it has only 2 bombs, it has no RWR, it has no flares, and it has no air to air ability at all because it doesn’t even have guns.

working fine for me at 31k feet and counting

I think there might be another queue imbalance issue.

Edit: also you may want to reconsider the T-2 being allowed in the lower bracket as it seems to be one of the best planes by a large margin.

Edit 2: I will also not play any more until spawn costs are reduced, as losing 12k sl because my plane can’t take off from the airfield I chose is not fair. Also, it sucks to lose that much SL while a premium plane is 1/3rd that to spawn.

idk i got shot down pretty quickly

Could it use them?

I got shot down once my bomb bay doors open

works fine for me, as long as you stay at low altitude and dont get an IR missile sent at you

F-5E is clearly the star of the this iteration. Being able to carry four AGMs without sacrificing anything, top notch flight performance, guns and modern RWR just prints game score very easily. It even makes dedicated strike platforms such as A-10A / Jaguar A obsolete…

Reds have better air to air missile kit but it doesn’t matter when all you need to do is tap the countermeasures once. Only if China had access to J-7E, now that would be a nice matchup…

Oh, good exuse to play the Pakistani tree then : P

This is a Jaguar that was on display with Alarms and AS.37s

And this is the report that got accepted for adding the Alarm based on these pictures

So yeah, it could use it
Technically it could get the alarm, but I don’t see that happening any time soon

MiG-25 is hammering in NE

Definitely nailed the energy this time around. Without so many Long range SAM batteries harassing players, the mode definitely is better.

HOWEVER, I am still disappointed by three factors;

  1. AI convoys still have desynching issues. This affects the performance of TV seekers and even dumb rockets, as you practically need to be on top of moving vehicles in order to actually track their movements correctly… which is a big issue with the SHORAD escort.

  2. SHORAD themselves. While the Su-22’s new Kh-27PS can see the tracking radar of the M163… The fact that none of the other aircraft within the BR set for this test can see the tracking nor search bandwidth of the ZSU-23-4 is frankly a stupid oversight. While it leaves a less authentic feel, replacing the 23-4s with 37-2s would have been much more acceptable (or use SPAA that operate in the bandwidth of what aircraft CAN see, IDK…)

  3. The mode is still largely unfriendly to mostly stock planes. I have been suggesting for the past several runs that some of the forward positions have tanks removed and replaced with static AA guns/pillboxes and MGs to give opportunities to those who don’t even have rockets.
