mica are better than any fox 3 at this br and even with only 2 can deal some pretty damage
You do realize an AIM-120A and a MICA are not the same thing right?
MICA can be really strong yes, but is it strong enough to make it OP at 13.0 with two of them (plus two magics) ? the F4F ICE has 4 aim 120 and 4 aim 9l/i at the same BR, and at 13.3 you can find premiums SU30 with 6 R-77 and 4 R-73, or even F-16’s with 6 AIM 120…
Yes the MICA is one of the strongets fox 3, but having only two make it really limited, you can’t waste them. You have to make them count otherwise any planes around this BR will crush you, because it would be its only strenght. If you find someone that notch your two missiles then you’re cooked.
Of course, seeing 12.0 is an issue due to BR compression, but it affect everything around theses BR right now. i would argue that the F16’s and Su30’s at 13.3 are a bigger issue than what a Mirage F1MF2000 at 13.0 would be.
This aircraft might get MICAs but with only 2 of them bolted on to what is probably the worst airframe with Fox-3s, I think it’ll be quite alright.
They are not godlike. They are not more OP at 13.0 than the Magic-2 is at 12.0. Plus you have the IRIAF F-14 with 4x Fakours.
Plus at 13.0 you also have planes with more than double the total number of missiles. The F-18C Early and Su-27 can carry 10 AAMs. The Su-33 can carry 12.
The Mirage F-1CT can carry only four total! I’m guessing the MF2000 would carry at most 2x Magic-2 and 2x MICA.
I mean if you say so, I main France so it’s not like it would affect me negatively…
Comparing Fakour to the level of MICAs lol
I really don’t get the hate for the Mirage F1C airframe, its fine for its BR, better than the mig23 or F4 airframes it will encounter, higher top speed than the f16. You can either fight the enemy jet or outrun it and it gets tons of countermeasures.
because when it first released it was a fat bus of a plane, now adays, well for the past 2 or so years it’s a pretty nice plane for it’s BR flight wise.
just make sure you don’t bleed all your energy as the recovery of it is way more difficult than retaining it.
12.3 with mica?:D
MICAs against F-4E and MiG-23s would be something
If 3 years ago might 12.3 and gaijin not ready MICA Air-to-Air Missile
But currently to 13.0
Even at 13.0 it would be insane, imagine a F-4J against a MICA carrier
13.3 would be fine, fm is ehh the only thing that will carry it is mica’s
just remember that there is prem su30s at this br
also huge +1, need asap
fair and balanced…
and mig29g fine in same br? no fix 3 missile…

?
