Strike aircraft are supposed to suck against dedicated fighter. You have GRB and Sim if you want to use them. This moronic train of thoughts is what gave us 10.0 Aim9L and 11.3 Aim9M on A10. This is bad for the game. If you don’t want to die to fighters, you have to use a fighter yourself. That’s it. gaijin should NEVER balance strike aircraft so they “'have a chance”. It just make things worse.
And on top of that, you can’t be freaking serious by comparing the lower tier attackers with the top tier that includes F15E (currently the best aircraft ingame in term of flight performance), a freaking M2000 (same flight model as the S5) and a Su-34 which is just a fat Su27.
It’s insane you are equating using an advanced IR missile against jets with lots of counter measures and can fly Mach 2.0 as the same as 8.7s being forced to fight A-10s and Su-25…with all aspect missiles.
They will both consistently face top tier aircraft or near top tier aircraft.
Lower tier is irrelevant when they will face top tier aircraft in all game modes. Asking for an aircraft to be able to defend itself isn’t overpowered (or should we just remove all short range IR missiles on ground attackers?)
That’s your view if you play top tier you will see that ground attackers are food, and not worth taking
Imaging IR seekers in WT cannot be decoyed by flares or DIRCM. If you have ever tried to kill a Ka-50/52 with a AGM-65D with IIR seeker, it will happily ignore their flares and DIRCM.
Now swap the missile from a flying 250 pound bomb with a short burn motor to a very agile AAM with a significantly longer burn. It pains me to admit this but MICA IR, if added to the game now would be far too much. Mechanics need to be modified or added before the game can handle IIR seekers on AAMs.
that was kind of my whole point add the missile but the irccm and other stuff can be tweaked to make it lees powerful and they only 2 man like the lest plane that carry missile is j39 with 4 good fox3 and 2 good 9m like what are we even arguing about that’s what i didn’t understand
Okay guys.
In the pas 40 messages at least it’s been 20 posts of people repeating the same arguments again and again, followed by 20 comments on the F15 and Typhoon.
Please go back on track or use DM, or go the the appropriate thread if you want to talk/argue about things not related to the mirages
With the update coming today, I guess the countermeasure of Mirage 4000 will be still under suggestion instead it will be implemented, just like F-16AM PIDS Pod can carry missile.
Well at least we got Mirage 2000 historical countermeasure count, Mirage 4000 is dead anyway in a 13.0 Matchmaker that always got fully uptiered.
hey @WaretaGarasu, looks like there is naming or modelling mistake, looks like the 3d model of the M2K D’s radar is modelled after Antilope 5 TC, not 5
