I have 517 destroyed targets on my account, want to compare stats?
True, my KD is a bit over one :D
MIG is currently at 11.7 on BR in Realistic battles…
So in essence you want a IRCCM missle that people can’t flare so you can get free kills without any effort. Got it

I forgot to mention, I’m not a professional, not an ace, and far from being an excellent player. I’m speaking from the perspective of an average player. So, I ask you to consider that.
And even the average player would realize that the mig23 is quite good. So perhaps you might be below average

Of course, setting the conditions no higher than 3 km, don’t forget about the antipod, and the limit of 2 missiles. And I’d understand if the radar worked like it does now, but didn’t go haywire from a gust of wind, just for convenience.
If you’re talking about the r24T, then that’s just skill issue, simply launch it from a distance when they aren’t looking. And having played a worse version of it in the german techtree i can say that its quite usable. And the radar isn’t terrible either for your information
A friend recently bought this aircraft for me and I love it. Turn your radar to your IRST and use the R-24Ts from space. 2 free kills.

I suspect they were talking about sim
One of the worst aircraft in the game in my opinion. It has nothing going for it after the nerfs came through, even the R-24Ts are kinda shitty and very situational. The R-60Ms are just hopelessly bad.

That’s just completely incorrect, and the airframe is one of the best 3rd gen airframes. It has 2 great SARH missiles, great flight performance and speed, and OK IR missiles.
Use the R-13Ms instead.

Maybe you’d like to use the Aim-9P and Aim-9H a full BR step higher
They’re really not.

If you are struggling with R-60Ms at 11.7, wait till you get to 12.7 with MiG-29.
Honestly R-60Ms really aren’t that bad (especially at 11.7). Don’t use them as if they are 9Ls and you will be fine.
I’d say use them similar to a SRAAM, fire within 0.70km. That way its a lot harder to flare and they will be able to easily get the target (unless you are firing a crazy off bore shot). Preferable fire them at mach 1.10 so the enemy has no time to react.
About R-24s, I don’t have them as I’ve only ever used R-23T and R-23R on Hungarian MiG. If I were you I wouldn’t use R-24Ts and just go for the 24Rs. Use these for long range dueling at beginning of the game and then once you get to the furball, pick off people with R-60M and R-13M1.
Try not get into a dogfight with anything more powerful than a F-4. If a F-5E is trying to dogfight with you, bait them to go high and then just nuke with R-24R.
Otherwise MiG-23ML should be a great plane (never played it, but its obviously better than a MiG-23MF, and from my experience MF isn’t that bad.)

Are you having a giggle mate?
I’d personally rather have 4x R-60Ms than 2x R-13s
AIM-9H is amazing
24T is significantly better than the R-24R when combined with IRST
I think it’s just a normal 11.7BR fighter jet. It seems like it would be okay to fly in.
