because in that map ground forces are in a bowl and planes are outside of the bowl so they can’t be seen unless they fly high in line-of-sight
IOG go brr + High loft after launch + RWR deadzone?
It wouldn’t. TV is line of sight/contrast seeking. ECM only affects radar and/or radar missiles.
Endless clips of R-27ER going dumb if you try to maintain lock on a bomber???
I dont know man. I had a f4s stall climb then hit me with an aim7f. and yes, i was also chaffing.
Sounds like a deadzone to me (yes, those exist), although I don’t know if Gaijin modelled it that far beyond just a radar jamming bubble.
I know for a fact attempts to try and lock in a head on almost never works or isn’t stable enough to maintain a SARH missile lock. I haven’t tried in a chase or directly under/above a bomber (although this is mostly because the opportunity never presented itself).
I would like it so much better if they would just remove the makeshift ECM from the strat bombers and instead make it a mandatory objective (with according rewards) to destroy mid- and long-range AA (BUK, S300 and HAWK, Patriot) before you can spawn in strat bombers. So SEAD+DEAD as a mandatory playstyle for bombers to enter the field.

Still doesn’t solve the issue of said bombers becoming completely defenceless in an AO where everyone else has missiles.
IF something like the B-2 was in the game, sure, let stealth do all the heavy lifting in terms of defence, but these are Cold War-era, slightly modified strategic bombers lol. They can’t defend themselves and would ideally rely on escorts IRL for that.

i rarely, if ever, i got that map in rotation. I think i have a minimum of 5 matches on it at most.
Ok, I just entered another match at the very end. Please stop this from happening Gaijin. It is unbelievably frustrating.

I guess I am a very unlucky dude.
okay bro why do i get put with F18s and F15s when my br max is 12.0 with only F4s, this is ridiculous
Only took 7 skipped battles to find not ongoing one xd
it 50/50 when you have 12.0 aircraft. Just leave and rejoin.
Every ongoing battle kills any desire to play this mode

One of things I dislike about joining ongoing battles is fact that aa already advanced far enough to camp you as soon as you leave center airfield.
when you know R-60M is more flare resistant than R-73 in this mode but you can’t prove it

Yeah… no it’s not lol.
The only weird thing is Aim-7Fs. They seem to be acting like they’re ARH.
I fired 3 last night, swapping to 3 different targets, in an F-4S, and all struck.
Range: first was fired at 6.3 mile range, last was fired at 4.6 mile range.
