What’s even that wrong with the technique it was just a simple baseline metric to compare multiple planes and missiles.

Flare in a straight line - see if it hits, do it multiple times to collect and average.

Flare than evasive flat turn and flare at different times in the turn - see how many it takes to miss collect average.

they themselves said that it’s not impossible after saying its impossible
like i said,

feel free to argue them if you don’t like what they said

you defeat irccm missiles differently regardless because they are fov based rather than heat
yes heat plays a role however it is more about aiming your flares on the seeker rather than just dropping them
and the heat of your own aircraft matters less

I dont see the word impossible anywhere except coming from you. also that’s not how irccm works

“you can throw every flare and turn as hard 90 as possible and it will still track regardless” aka impossible

in nutshell it is, you defeat irccm missiles by aiming your flares
if you think im wrong then watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4PMaFA9Obs

I don’t even get what you are arguing about.

So I will ask you 1 question.

Is it significantly harder to fool IR missiles in a Harrier when compared with other jets.
Yes or No.

Specifically non-IRCCM seen at 11.0 and lower.

so you are shoving words into someone’s mouth, cool you do you

for me? no
for you? who knows. keep the skills in check

don’t claim that something is impossible to defeat if its defeatable by clicking the flare button a few times and turning. exaggerating is same as lying

if “you can throw every flare and turn as hard 90 as possible and it will still track regardless” doesn’t mean impossible to defeat feel free to tell me what it means

Show me your stat card and how much you’ve played in the Harriers.

honestly not really but that’s cause my harrier is at 9.7 where missiles aren’t really that good yet and it gets 240 CM that I use on periodic, I know other harriers that are higher BR do have issues though


i can go around and record videos of me defeating r60 if you want

your answer: extremely difficult and a pain in the butt to do

So I get 60 at the most and they drop 2 at a time.

yeah im sure tapping the flare button few times and pressing S is extremely difficult and pain

So you have a whole 186 battles in it

Go ahead and do it with 2 flares or less like everyone else.

yes, and i have no problem with r-60’s
got a problem with that?

“go defeat r60 but be dumb and only drop 2 flares even though you could easily drop couple more”
lmao

I just don’t have the same experience as what it shown in that footage.

I know that it’s heat sig is high, but having a hard time believing that it’s that high.

exactly, you get a low CM count compared to the AV-8A I can set my CM to 4 per release and I use it at low interval too
