Very Big “IF”
And what does the MICA’s range being fixed change about any of this? R-77-1 still outranges the MICA even if the MICA’s range is fixed.
???, the mica has a better seeker, better turn, only loses in range, and with a nearly straight line, the mica should have less drag.
Was talking more about the increased turning ability, if I remember right it should be improved by like 80 percent or something over what it currently is with better time to target which I think would come with the new motor and all that.
(Like 60 degrees a second of turning ability to like 100, almost double)
I don’t think they should do it unless they overhaul all fox 3s at once. (Aam4, amraam, r77, etc)
Range idrc about, they can add increased range and I don’t have much qualms about that.
It was probably about the other report about the energy being too low and not doing enough g i guess ?
But at some point people have to move on, an air launched missile at mach 1, can’t meet the GROUND launched capability, that is crazy…

I listed all of the reports for developers to choose the reports that they would like to implement. If you support one of the reports, doesn’t mean you automatically support the implementation of all the other reports either.

But how can you defend reports if you say that an R-77-1 is better than the Mica missile?
Yeah, I’m fine with it getting more range cause r771 exists.
Better time to target and increased hobs capability not really, as it would make the discrepancy between it and amraam jsut utterly comical, I would like to have most missiles fixed in this aspect before mica gets fixed here.
So basically what I’m saying is that I’m fine with mica getting completely fixed if other missiles are also accordingly buffed

Except no AMRAAMs have reports for increased HOBS capability afaik. So are you in favor of indefinitely postponing the resolving/implementation of MICA’s reports? When should it be fixed, when AIM-120D-3 is added? When AIM-260 is added?
Really? Low k surprised, swear i saw one talking about increasing maneuverability to hit a target, might be misremembering then.
Eh if that’s actually true then they might as well fix it now, along with a rework of aam4 and r-77 though, cause at least for those 2 missiles they have outstanding reports on their motor, seekerhead and maneuverability like mica.
Didn’t realize amraam is that cooked lol

Is that supposed to be a bad thing? Rafale players will be isolated and get to enjoy facing themselfs, while everyone else will be free from the Rafale.

With limited vision, Mica can become a missile that complements a range of
missiles, as in the case of Rafale, which can have Mica and Meteor
Mica is still the best missle in the game.
In no way does it need further buffs

The report was to fix “terminal maneuverability” after the missile traveled some ranges but who knows how Gaijin will fix this, maybe slightly increased loft or delayed turn-down from loft, or any of the other solutions they could use.

No. Worst missiles at top tier should get better first. MICAs are still pretty much a meta missile within its intended usage.

Considering aim120s pull less then aim7M in game you know something is wrong.

Then put in a report, but it is not acceptable to say we should wait 10 years for developers to finally fix the AMRAAM. Developers shafting the AMRAAM isn’t an acceptable reason to shaft the MICA.

I personally will never do a report since most of them that get passed don’t get addressed for 2 plus years so I ain’t wasting my time with that.
It absolutely does if there’s viable MCM tactics as well as competitors having greater increased missile counts as well as increased missile quality. I refer you to the thread again:
In contrast with this, France realistically does not have the option to increase missile counts as the maximum is 8 on the Rafale. Missile upgrades were inquired and understandably denied by Smin, as MICA-NG and Meteor missiles are not comparable to AIM-120D. See below:
Some of you may then ask, why specifically is this thread made when the MICA is still a great missile in the current meta?
- For realistic modeling of the kinetic performances of the missile
- For medium term planning of the evolution of the game allowing France to have breathing room in relevance of missile quality as they will always lag in missile quantity.
So MICA shouldn’t be buffed because AMRAAM is shafted, but you won’t lift a finger to help fix the AMRAAM? You see there’s something wrong here and it’s not this thread?
