Yeah it has 0.5deg gated fov + seeker shut off IRCCM which is pretty cool
That’s Taiwanese and it has the Sky Sword Missiles
Mixed irccm is also found on the stinger and Mistral but the gated fov is above 1 so not that Great
They work fine, the problem with stingers is that they’re slow and don’t turn well making them easy to dodge even without flares.
100%
But still funny when people try flares only and get clapped
But atlest they got buffed from 10 to 13g
Are you sure you want to use the KD card of an aircraft that broke itself before the G-force tolerance buff? When your stats card looks like this?
I would ask for your KD in any Crusader, but you have none so idk whats your point.
Whats wrong with your quote is that the IRCCM of the R-73/Magic 2 is the best at the moment + thrust vectoring missile, every missile is easy to flare if you know how to flare properly tho, but it is definitely way way better than a R-60

Indeed, but whats your KD on the F8U-2
The 9M is better in side aspect, which is a lot easier to get in general when you use it to third party compared to the need to get an almost perfect rear launch with the R73.
R73 is good for very high off-bore launches but I really wouldn’t call it the best IRCCM, 9M is a lot more reliable in my experience.
Magic 2 seems to be more reliable to the R73 to me, but I think it’s because it’s much easier to get in position for a good 2km launch with the planes carrying the Magic 2.
Honestly it mostly comes down to the planes carrying them. I do wish the R73 had the 0.75° seeker from the acquisition however, so it would be harder to pre-flare.

Yeah cutting out and do a Rank Filter on the Stat Card will make you way more trustworthy.
Just use my Overall stats and you‘ll see i am not a bad player.
If i use the F8U-2 i will have a better KD than my F5C i guess this thing is one of the Most OP planes in this BR Range Right now.
In my Opinion AIM-9M > Magic 2 > R73
And yes the R73 has TV but thats also a downside sometimes when missile Kills itself with the Death wobble
My take is Magic 2 > aim9m > r73
But take into account those are different missile types so the aim9m will hit things the r73 won’t and vice versa
Aim9m is worthless against su25 and similar aircraft because they can just drop flares and pull like no tomorrow so the aim9m will always miss
Unless the aim9m is launched from very far
Maybe that’s the biggest difference between the two
The r73 should be launched has close has possible while the aim9m works better at longer ranges (but that also increases the risk of finding blue targets along the Way)

Most played planes or best KD didn´t looked good either ngl.
Ok
You dont even have a single plane that has AIM-9M, so your opinion is not only wrong, but it is also worthless

Your KD looks a bit worse than mine huh? if my kd didnt look good either what yours looking like? :)
(Both KDs are without Ground Kills because you cut them out)
i thinks thats a pretty good KD ratio
you know that there is sometimes a DEV Server?
your kd is trash and your opinion is worthless because you dont even have top planes

Spawns is not relevant to KD. It is by definition Kills per Death. Or the abbreviation would be KS.
Yeah you‘re right but i don‘t to that much Math just for that case.
In that case He surely has a better kd
I Hope you are Joking.
I guess you Don‘t See the SU27SM as top tier but thats Not my fault. (I don‘t like playing Top Tier cuz of FOX3s and my Friends don‘t have any Top Tier Planes)
Its because the Magic 2 accelerates way faster meaning it can close the distance faster and make use of the 0.75deg fov much more effectively.
Not the best way to gain experience with the 9M lol. Most of the enemies in the dev server are bots that don’t flare.

Here you can find your actual KD from last month or since day 1, i will let you see what your KD is and not your KS.
For any plane yes, for the most OP plane on its BR ever, not really.
Congratulations, you just proved that your opinion doesn’t count. 8/10 shooting yourself in the foot.

Ah didnt know That thanks.
Was one of the Most OP before the Decompression. But at That Time we didnt Play realistic.
Its still good but the missiles are kinda meh in that BR
I Only count the normal players which Flare Not the Bots Cuz thats free Kills. Even you stated the Killrate Almost precise, the AIM-9M Did about 8/10 fired missiles Hit. That was better than any IR missile i used. (Another Time Only normal players because bots would be 10/10)
They did seemingly buff flares or nerf seekers ability to maintain lock a while back, but im more waiting on Matra R.550 Magic 2 getting the better IRCCM it seemingly should have over the R-73. Per sources on the bug report that gave it IRCCM it seemingly has a 4 element seeker over the 2 element one of the R-73.
But yes seekers in general should likely be better

They also nerfed flares a while back as well. Flares needing to ramp up in luminosity.
