Just yesterday I got killed by an R-darter from like 60º to the side while flying in the 30-40m range at mach and some slight maneuvers without leaving the multipath ceiling, I was using the new radar altitude thingy to make sure of it. That was one of those times that I was like, screw it, lets see if multipath works for me and then all my control lines got blasted away from the explosion nearby, the missile exploded in the air close to me
If the missile comes down with a high enough angle, then it will hit you on the way to hitting an MP Target. So if the Gripen was way above you, then the R-Darter had a good chance of striking you.
MP I find it most effective when something is at the same alt as you when the missile is fired at you. Everything else, best to notch
Yes of course, but most missiles come from a high aspect
I don’t really have an explanation other than what was already said, it could just be you’re unlucky lol
R-Darter was known for being very floaty as far as Fox 3s go. So there is that. Dunno, if you went over a dip in the ground you might’ve come out of multipathing.
Only other thing is, is your altimeter Barometric or Radar?
No, always below 60m, I use both altimeters but I’m talking about radar altimeter ofcourse
