he is talking about the r-530f
which can be one chaffed due to it not having a CW seeker but a Pulse seeker
the same reason why it dosent give launch warnings
1 Like
becasue its a pulse missile
and you know what that means?
a single drop of chaff and the missile is going to be trashed

Do people not just pop a chaff whenever they see a mirage 2k lock them? Like ive only ever died to one due to a sarh missile once and that was because i had run out of chaff lol. Its not like they are hard to dodge either.
its not even about the M2K
but the Mirage F1C
I always say 2k when i mean f1… dont ask me why but yeah.
the missile not giving a launch warning is something that will fool somebody once and then you should just know to drop a single chaff when locked by a Mirage F1
Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me
also if u launch the missile in a blind spot of ur enemy’s RWR it will be easier to kill him, and if u lock ur target at long range they will not expect u launching a missile that far away, which means u can get closer without them caring of u and then u have the perfect oportunity to launch it. whatever if an ally launches a SARH missile that has CW at the same enemy, ur 530F is probably cooked except ur enemy is dumb and relies in multipath.
yeah i forgot about the name of CW, i remember it almost perfectly due to the Kurnass 2000.
Ive managed to get a handfull of kills with the r530 on my 10.0 mirage 3c let alone anything at 12.0 lol. I would rather bring the ir 530 and just hope they dont see the massive smoke plume coming towards them lol.
yeah this post is so old im not even worried about F1Cs anymore so im not trash-talking about them anymore (plus it’s been a while since i saw one).
