Mig-23M or Mig-21Bis

Literally that

how about the rocket climbing strategy those who climb very high on the map and just send radar missle from like 10km away and chaff dosen’t work and multipathing…

What?

Look, did you watch the videos I said to ?

I’ve told you about how to defeat these missiles.

DEFYN also goes into great detail with it on his radar missile guide.

The higher you go the harder the missile is to defeat.

Yes i know the missle harder to defeat but how to defeat missle that send from the top it ignored my flares and chaff. It always the Aim-7f every other radar missle i manage to defeat no problem.

You cant just fly straight and hope to defeat the missile for example.

You have to notch i described above, and chaff.

However you can also multipath it which means staying below 60 meters in altitude.

Watch both this. which is an indepth explination on how to both use and defeat the missiles.
Watch it, and pay attention to it.

and this as its a bit older but still partly relevant.

I bought the mig23ml as a prem about a year and a half ago.
My first battle in it was with a bunch of F16s that still didnt have fox 3, or amraams.
Its a really good plane but you will need the keybind, or control, to sweep your wings.
YES, the mig 23 ml Prem is a super good plane but its drawback is its 4 roMK IR missiles.
Against an experienced pilot they can flare those off, like aim9ls too.
On that plane I would suggest going on test flights with it mate, test flight after test flight…but who cares, its just you …
Yeah, Ive got eleven thousand airkillls in WT, its the mig 23 ML, r24 radar missiles the best at that BR
You have to sit there and study it for a sec.
You just have to learn how to fly it.

Well said,…I only fly fighters, that being said, since Beta, thats what I do…
I pursue other planes…I dont understand the bomber mentality.
Normally now, I go for the dangerous fighter on the team, but hell when I see a “bomber chap” flying along, to me its a free airkill.
Well said and youre nice as I wish I was.

MiG-21Bis is an absolute menace in ASB.

I could be a dck but whats the point, he has to learn one way or another.

I mean ive given about all the ready information i have and know as well so theres also that

Isnt the 23 more of a menace or is the bis at a lower BR? however seeing as this dudes talking about as far as i can see ARB is why i recommended the 23m.

23 has disgustingly bad awareness and will fare VERY poorly against Mirages and F8s.

It’s pretty great for ARB, only issue imo is the flare count.

what do you even mean? its RWR is about the same as the Mirages, and i think the F8 too.
however In sim ive yet to use it so I cant comment.

Yup its not great but that teaches positioning better
and so on

Ok so that defintely help and i would want to know wether this is a good progress or not? and 618k of Sliverlion and where did it all go??? i only have 88k

It goes on repairs and such.

Both use SPO-10, though the MiG-23’s size and sluggishness make it VERY hard to stay aware of enemies.

I mean surely its not that difficult, its not that sluggish compared to the 21 if you manage the sweep

It most definitely is.

Cant say ive experienced it being slugish

Ok I face new problem because after being better at doging missle i have a new issue is gun fight when both enemy ran out of missles i have to use guns and I tired with ww2 and early jet vehicles dogefighting was very easy however with the mig-23m with very low ammo count and very high speed i have very little time to caculate and espcially with this crazy firerate it ran out of ammo fast.

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)
