With guns, the mig23 has a pretty hard gun to use, the 23MM on it has pretty sht velocity in comparisson to the other guns at the BR, however it’s something you will pick up in time, try lead more, also dogfighrs at that BR are a lot different from the older dog fights, you’ll need to manage your energy and try keep the plane at a decent, but not too fast speed.
Roughly about mach 0.8 is where I like it for dogfighting, youll need to manage the wings as well.
You can extend away from literally any plane you come across, remember that
(that means you can out run anyone at the BR)
Ok I think i have to end my career on the Mig-23M it very painful espically on dogefighting and I want to countinue use my Su-17m4 which will also give more boost grinding the Su-27 and since it can carry more guns and extra things all in one… so you got any tips? With the special skills i learned from the Mig-23 will surely make me a better flyer in a better dogefighter, I know that the Su-17m4 is avaliable to create an energy trap while maintaining very great turn rate, also with crazy amount of countermeasure it has a weaker engine too… so What else can you make me fly better for the Su-17m4 and I also know about the CCRP and CCIP I think that how you spell it. So base on both of this 2 bombing modes I basically just sent my bombs like 5Km away and then start dogefighting. People Call me cheating are you not allowed to use CCRP or CCIP in the battle?
Yes but how do i use it??? Lot of time my team just die and became 1v1 with the enemy for the Mig-23 I can detect it and head it direction but how about for the Su-17m4?
for earning SL, you just need to play as best u can, unfortunately I cant really give tips on how to earn it, folks say spam a prem in naval, or use a prem air craft n base bomb, which sure gives SL at the time, but youll always lose SL playing normally if you dont learn to play at the same time.
shifting up a BR step as well, you will usually lose SL to begin with as you are into a new area of gameplay. e.g 9.0 to 10.0 or rank 6 to 7 especially for air as it introduces more agile platforms with more dangerous missiles.
SL hasn’t been an issue for me since the economy change, especially if u have some premium time as you literally cannot lose SL
The radar of Bis is better despite lacking MTI mode which is glitchy.
It has an ACM mode to quickly lock targets, and you don’t need to do the clumsy target switching/spam mash the lock button. That means the bis radar is way more practical for radar slaving IR seekers.
The biggest problem of mig 23m is it’s lack of flares, only 12 of them. To me this isn’t enough for fast missiles with small seekers (PL-5B/magic) and you can’t be focused on looking back all the times so pre flaring is a requirement.
