With how easy the seekers are to defeat, the larger NEZ arent that big of a deal. Ive fired 100s of C5s with the target well within the NEZ, easily defeated every time. A Meteor fired at 100km away would be no larger threat than one fired at 15km away.

Launches missiles from 100km away because 100km is within the NEZ
“Why do my missiles never hit?”
Gaijin drag their feet to the last second and then when something is really in need of changed they do something…we are talking about missiles that will make the Fakor 90 look like a 7M…we can agree to disagree though :(
Pretty much :D
I’m so glad you were right about that
We all are extremely happy to see Gaijin spending resources on an entirely new branch of military rather than spending those resources on improving the state of the game

The thing is, do you want 150km+ range missiles to be spammed at the start of the match and knocking out players from the get go, causing them go and play defensive the entirety of the match? It would be quite similar what fox 3 release was people not knowing how to notch and running defensive for the most part.
It would be quite cancer to play defensive all match tbh if it wasnt for the seekers+ notching being a good mechanic.
Im glad the seeker+ notch mechanics are the way they are. Maybe 🤔 being upped to mica level is improvement but not more.
I love this for you too :) o7, snark aside lets wait and see…good day sir
Thats how the missiles work IRL otherwise we may aswell just reskin what we have now and call them Meteors and IRIS-T.
Is it good for gameplay…Maybe not, but then neither is releasing 100s of Su-30 premiums and BMPTS at hilariously low Brs.

People still don’t know how to notch and run defensively
It’s so incredibly sad to see how many people still die to long range Phoenixes and Fakours while flying high
(not that I’m complaining, it makes grinding events so much easier lol)

Pulled from the latest video, not a leak or hint or anything. Just something funny.

Spoiler
F-22 confirmed March 2026?
To be honest, disregarding the BMPT situation lol,
On the topic of air and su30s, at 13.3 isnt exactly bad as they can face 13.7-14.3s which almost any absolutely smack em but you need major decompression so they can find their sweet spot but yes facing 12.3s is a bit iffy, but even smt/Jeff/f-16A/Mlu etc with 6 fox3s exist terrorizing the lower BR.
I think it is a bit low as well, because as a flanker player, those 13.3s arent hard to play at all. (Many thought they were dead on arrival but realized BR placement changes everything)
Anyway, decompression should come atleast kinda like 15.0 so 13.0-13.3 can be dispersed better.

God I love these PL spikes man. First downtier I’ve had in like 2 days and I got slung from 9k alt into the ground in 5 seconds with a crew lock just to really rub it in.
are we going to get another WT wrapped like last year

Exact thing that I was thinking
Tbf, some of the next-gen BVRAAMs are in the files for air section while IIR missiles are still not added to the air section of the datamine which makes me think the probability of next-gen ARHs coming first is higher.
They will add them and remove 90% of their actual performance making the additions feel lacklustre.
I mean they wont remove the range cap on the MICA
You think they will add Meteor anywhere near it’s real world performance?

I don’t consider Meteor as the next-gen BVRAAM but as the one after that.
Next-gen BVRAAM being PL-15, AIM-120D, R-77M, Derby-ER, etc.

To be fair the Meteor in WT could have a good seeker to start off with, since IIRC it’s an improved MICA seeker.
My point is, at the very least, it would have the current MICA seeker performance.
Let’s also not forget that the Meteor, being on the Rafale too, will be buffed by the infinite bug reports of the french Avengers bug reporting team, it’s gonna be op.

Maybe.
Yes it should be C&P of MICA, but this is gaijin we are talking about. Might have a C&P of the Aim-54s seeker because “balancing reasons”
