Loving the event in general (I’ve played and completed the event for both sides) but I’ve noticed the Mig-29 is still way too powerful. MIG-29 players consistently absolutely dominating with the R27 missiles.

i’ve literally never seen an F-4E with a positive K/d.
Even top scorers end in negatives
Bottom feeder plane.
MLD is probably harder to play for those who never used it before
Hate to break it for you and you may not like this answer but the average mig29 that still has the gut to play that pos is probably going to be way better than the average f18c premoid player and probably the rest of the usa base. It legit functions like the MLD does but with a PD radar so you can actually lock more often. 2 missiles, thats all

i am probably the first b52 to get nuked by a tu95

Multiple questions:
- Why did you miss with your nuke?
- How long did you fly back to the main base?
- Why were you even going there to begin with?
- Did you lose your flaps from overspeeding?
he forgot the nuke at the airfield
he had to get it back

we had 3 nukes for 3 airfields but the guy for the main airfield died when my bomb was already out.
i was first going for the closer airfields but when i tried to land i was to fast and airfield was too small.
then i went for the main airfield with longer runway and then this happened
Just had a match with one player in a Navy Phantom / PD radar / AIM-7F in my team. He single handedly killed 21 enemy jets, while the next player in a preset F-4E had a fraction of that. As soon as the stage changed to 3, he spawned the B-52 and ended it. For no efford other then climbing and slinging Sparrows. Op radar…
The mode is indeed massively inbalanced towards players bringing their own jets. While the preset Mig-23 is somewhat competitive with MTI and R24R, the F-4E is just too bad. As soon as there’s a player jet with PD radar, the preset ones barely get a kill.

I want to know where that guy got his radar, because my radar keeps sending my Fox-1s straight into the ground, even when the enemy is much higher above me.
Like, every time I fire a missile, it decides that it wants to be a conscientious objector at the last moment and fly way off course and smash into the ground for literally no reason.
It’s not like they were popping chaff/flares or notching or evading or anything, my missiles just will not connect and it’s driving me crazy.
that mightve been me ngl XDD
I’m sure Gajin thinks by handing out AIM-9L to F-4E players, they did something significant to make them competitive :) But yeah…the longer the event, the less hits with IR missiles. Ppl get used to it and there are flares everywhere.
Any idea how to disable auto countermeasures. Every time I fly the SU24 I’m out of countermeasures before I’ve got anywhere near a missile
It’s a keybinding named MAW something

Some of the players commenting here pretend the 9L is adequate when it isn’t, not from my experience. It only works in very specific situations, and since I tend to play late at night, the opponents I face are not the braindead Migs that everyone talks about but people who instantly flare my 9L when I let it loose and keep flying low to prevent me from getting a lock in my radar.
On the flipside I’ve faced a plethora of braindead F-4E players who do not flare my R-60s lol, although I tend to let them loose at point blank range (1km and below) which is too close for most people to react and they end up not flaring it in time.), the only F-4 pilots I have issues with are the F-4J and F-4S pilots who pre-flare my R-60s in the headons, however they still eat my R-24s since I can launch them sooner than they can launch their Sparrows because Sparrows are terrible past 6km in a head-on fight but R-24s have the sustain capability to not care about that limiter.
Like the only reason the Mig-23 is 11.7 because it only gets two R-24s and not four of them. If it had four it’d be 12.0.

No the IRST plus having MTI for the radar is so easy to used compared to the f4E
Low key gonna have to grind more russia because I am enjoying the su24 and the mig23
