Dying to its 73’s are a skill issue, their IRCCM is weak and can be easily flared even in rear aspect by turning off the afterburner and spamming few flares. MiG-21’s are so overrated, almost nobody dogfights at top tier until late game on equal teams. I’ve been playing that BR bracket for last month and died to MiG-21Bison exactly zero times.
“F-16’s are so overrated” yet the F16 even after all the new edition still hold their ground. I wonder is this the product of skill issue or just pure incompetent on the part of the player skill. Remember , after the ARAAM update , non of the soviet top tier jet hold a candle to what the west have and the F16 still by far way better than their Mig29 counterpart
I said overrated, not over tiered. F-16A is fine at 12.3. What I mean that it’s a situational jet, 9L’s are near useless for any aware targets sine they lack IRCCM which is common in this BR range and flight performance only really shines on dogfights which rarely happens.
This, yes! It needs to be 12.7. It’s not good for 13.0 but too good for 12.3.
R-73’s are way more harder to flare than 9L’s, at close range you need to pre flare and it pulls wayyy more G’s and AOA than 9L or 9M’s. Below 1km it’s unflarable, at close side aspect it’s also unflarable. 9L’s are only unflarable at close rear aspect when afterburning and doesn’t pull nowhere near as much.
Yeah cause you cherry picking the worst part possible and hope people will agree with your piss poor point ? Still ignoring that it is still a Mig21 at 12.3. And with your piss poor logic then F4 can be considered a lower br if not as good as the F16. Still gonna ignore what holding the Bison back as a 12.3 jet and just focus on the R-73 because your skill issue not allowing you to pre flare the thing ? Yeah no shiet sherlock. Also saying that F16 are overrated making any point you trying to make further pretty much hold no value. I can’t believe someone would say such horrible statement and act like he right
