for the Mig-27 they made it so that Kh-31 loadouts get locked below a certain br
so that you dont have the Kh-31 in the “vietnam” era

they could do something similar to the J22M

did you manage to get into a NE match on the dev server already?

nope, forgot that I was queued up and when i came back to the PC it was a 80 mins

I’ve had a 80 minute que for Ground sim playing Germany, I could wait that long for NE lol

i mean in general on the dev server

not neccessarily now

Ah yes, I’m sure a German main like you is perfectly qualified to say that.

Nuclear escalation needs a full game of players unlike normal dev server matches that fill out with bots. id be impressed if anyone got a NE game on dev

first time I tried getting into a NE match

As a F-35 main Leclercs are very OP should go to 15.0 honestly

oh god I forgot about the Mig27, fighting Hawks and Rolands with KH31s would be insane

@Smugspite do we class this as Sea Skimming?

ya know I think just maybe lol

also I noticed thats a common issue with ASMs instead of hitting at the water line or doing pop up attacks on missiles like the harpoon A, they all seem to fly slightly high and hit the superstructure

it doing 0 damage at the end is the cherry on top

i thought you guys like statistics :(

Well because you can’t aim with the Penguin on the F-5, it’s hard to get a good lock on the target, additionally it just goes in a straight line, only way to “sea skim” is to send that missile along that path, it should automatically do that but it doesn’t.

Irl the F-5s would fire the Penguins with pre designated target areas where the Penguins use their computers to stay low but just above the waves, above 18m iirc. They scran the area ahead of them looking for IR signatures and then using the fuel they have left raise and top attack as fast as possible to get as deep into the hull as possible.

Again in game they act as a Maverick but with slower speed, longer range, same seeker but nerfed to only look for boats within like 3° fov meaning they see basically nothing

When I was in NE shooting at like the douglas boats and such if I didn’t hit ammo it basically did a bit of yellow to the hull or just hits, and that’s if I distracted the boats SPAA by having them shoot me and not my missile.

I mean as much as I hate the French mains overhyping themselfs, we know that they statistically outperform major nation players in the same vehicles.

The rbs-15 actually does a decent job. they sink down to near sea level and hit the waterline fairly consistently

they stay higher untill terminal guidance
