? No problem flaring R-60s and rolling away.
I don’t really see an inmunity from flares, perhaps only R-24 but that’s it

It should not be able to lock through a mountain, and yet I’ve had BUK/Roland/OSA lock me through mountains and lately I’ve died to Roland missiles that phase through mountains. Missile clearly blows up against the trees and I dip behind the hill only to die from an invisible missile from the same Roland I was dodging.
RWR Deadzone isn’t a thing when its locking me from only slightly above the aircraft and not 70 degrees above me.
When will the OSA spam and fire on the move and lock through trees and not using search radar and intercepting everything including sidewinders and etc. end?

I would also like to suggest modifying this event to fit world war 2 aircraft.
The reason being is that ww2 got left behind for no good reason. This sort of deep strike game mode with big bombs replacing the small and medium-sized nukes would work well, and it would hopefully pull the ww2 part of the game out of the beginner’s swamp.
Too many events are focused solely on modern jets. And this gamemode would finally facilitate ground attackers, unlike Air RB and AB, while also giving an important role to bombers. Bomber escorting would also become an actual thing people do, as bombers would play an important role in destroying the industrial plants and AA sites.
Map size and spawn types/locations would have to be adjusted ofc

Dodge cracked AI AA then the MBT will dome you with its 2 sec gun traverse speed vs mac 1.
Fly above trees- not really as 30 M trees are still 50 M- which ones? Random so even more fun.
R60s are now straight up RNG
Spawn in “NEW” game- get nuked 5 seconds later
Rewards should never be locked behind a random event ever again. Its torture

I had taken the freshly stock F-15A out and completely spaded it only in this event. It doesn’t record the stats for me.
Playing this event has no consequences on your personal service records. You can go suicidal, head-on jousting at the center of the map and collect kills in the process. Rinse and repeat.
MiG-29, on the other hand, is cracked in this event by doing exactly the same thing.
Oh, and you cannot farm kills to unlock your aircraft camouflages, unfortunately.

Me when I join a game that will be over in 5 mins and then I get a 10 minute crew lock for leaving and not even spawning

Should add account bans to punish players for devs mistake
S-300s are on higher elevations so their radars can see more. A lot of the US systems are in valleys and depressions which limit their effectiveness.
Because you shouldn’t shoot missiles when in furballs or when friendlies are crossing back and forth in front of you or the enemy you are shooting at… that’s common knowledge. Missiles lose lock and actively seek to relock.
I’ve suffered multiple teamkills with my A-10C’s 9Ms purely because when I fire at someone in a headon, some dumb teammate flies in front of me right after I shot. A lot of the US players at the lower bracket lack awareness, which results in teamkills and more deaths to SPAA.
I don’t know, but it’s unlikely that there will be anyone in their right mind who will deny that a crowd of MiG-29s takes out everything in their path in this event.

Oooo nice map too. Do you know if there is a higher resolution version of it?
Going to add this to my map post. Also going to see if I can translate the text into English.
Translated version:
(Trying Chat GPT for translation as well, as this Google Translate version is not perfect. Good, but I would like better.)
Instead of AI nerfs can we lower the rewards for player kills and increase them for AI target kills?

I have a suggestion for balancing fighters.
Create a new vehicle class “Light Fighter” Light fighter - Wikipedia
Light Fighters would have a 0 SP spawn cost, while normal fighters would have a small spawn cost of say 50 SP (arbitrary pick, could be higher or lower)
This would encourage the use of a wider range of aircraft which are normally ignored due to “meta”, and I believe would fit the escalation style gamemode well.
Strike aircraft would also keep their normal 0 SP spawn cost, but I believe that strike fighters like the F-15E and Su-34 should adopt the 50 SP spawn cost, to keep it balanced.
