They are just trash players.

I’m not.
I’ve been playing for long enough to realize that playing BRs that I don’t enjoy is just masochism.

TBF, unless your already in a notch youll probably take a fakour to the face unless your in a small and maneuverable jet. You get minimal time to get into a notch against them due to thier speed.

Just don’t only notch once you get the rwr ping
you can see them as they’re being launched from 40km away and even just press tab

Fakour is an awareness check, nothing more
You actually do get plenty of time to react, provided you’re not relying entirely on the rwr

I feel like we as a society need to get back to diving into denser air and saving chaff with S turns 🥀

Thats my point, unless your already in a notch from seeing them come in its quite hard to notch from the rwr warning alone. Ive had it a couple times where ive seen it going for my friendly for it just to switch to me and im going mach 1.5 in an su airframe. Last thing im doing is getting into that notch in time.

So yes, they are an awarness check but that doesnt mean they are easy to notch as other missiles as the rwr doesnt give you enough time to get into a notch.

fair enough

GNSS says no, im going to stick to what i know and notch and crank otherwise ill have an f15 or f18 on my ass with 12 arh missiles that they will spam at me untill im dead. I need the ability to fire back and keep them at bay while i get close to finish them off.

@Smin1080p_WT Are there any plans to add the F-15JSI, since it’s almost the same as the F-15EX?

completely different aircraft btw

Its not almost the same they just share radar and EPAWSS but the rest is a whole different thing and there is little to know about it

I mean, in War Thunder terms, the F-15JSI is just a worse version of the F-15EX. The F-15JSI has weaker engines and shares the same airframe as the old F-15J MSIP, since it’s just a modernization.

Why say “since it’s essentially the same plane as the F-15EX” to begin with then?

Since it’s clearly not.

why are they even modeling it? is it a test of super long range missiles that could be added? I don’t know what they could add to other nations, as the PL-15 still seems a lot worse on range than the meteor, but leagues better than anything we have in game right now
