If you are dying to 27ERs then its skill issue. Not Gripen or Su-27 issue. Yes the radar is placeholder atm,its using F-16C radar,which is great. Also 9km rear aspect shots are possible with 9M as i did that multiple times in RB, as for SB front aspect 5 nm launch lead to kill aswell.
UK rn have the strongest top tier jet, backed up by another great jet which is Tornado F.3. And before you start how Tornado is unusable, i have 2+ K/D on it in both RB and SB and i started flying it when it was facing 16Cs and i had no issues with them.
I can barely get them to lock, in front aspect past about 2km with SEAM…
They should have a lock range of 15kms that is fact
The radar is a buggy mess. I already have on report in for ghost contacts (radar contacts that aren’t there) but also need to put one in for it swapping to random targets.
It should be a hell of a lot better than the F16s radar.
Tornado F3 should never be at 11.7. to do so it just a screw you to Britain from Gaijin. Needs to be 11.3.
Iaw Russians Kinzhalnhas Mach 10 speeds but but it is probably jus a bit faster then Isjader M with Mach 6-7.
Well there are debris of Kinzhal missiles in Kyjev and we can presume that they did not just fall out of the sky themselves and something downed those missiles, in this case Patriot.
So there are two possibilities. Either the Khinzal is not that fast, or Patriot is more capable than declared.
There are plenty of “schizo” tinfoil hat reasoning (or alternatively quite reasonable extrapolations) I could provide that this isn’t the case, but so far only US aligned media outlets are saying such things about Kinzhal. I will wait for trustworthy sources (ones not hiring guys who work(ed) for hawk think tanks) to comment or report rather than taking the word of either side.
No Escape Zone is honestly a pretty useless term at this point because no one agrees on what the actual definition for it is.
A lot of people online (and in some reputable publications) treat no escape zone as meaning essentially “a range below which it is impossible to dodge the missile”.
However historically No Escape Zone has been defined as a range at which you can no longer successfully complete a 180° turn at X number of G and run away from the missile. By that definition plenty of in game missiles already have no escape zones. For example (this is from the section of the Tornado F.3 Tactics Manual comparing Skyflash SuperTEMP to AIM-7F):
How could you have possibly gotten than he was asking for the AIM-9X. He simply stated what it’s performance was comparable to. He also indicated if they wanted to add advanced missiles that they should add the comparable advanced missiles to balance things out.
He did not say that the AIM-9M is bad or poor performance. It’s just not comparable to what’s on the Russian side of things.
This is a drastic example of the strawman argument. His argument was what they should do if they want to make things balanced. The argument was not what he wants the direction of the game to be. You extrapolated and over simplified the argument to make him look stupid…
The issue is that your reading comprehension was drastically lacking here.
Thing is, AIM-9X is 30 years newer than R-73. If you want AIM-9X then R-74M should be added. Its simple fact US thought their 9M is enough until they saw East German R-73s post unification and then rushed AIM-9X developement aswell as IRIS-T.
yeah thats why i put “no escape” in quotation mark.
We allready have in game ranges for where its functionally impossible to dodge a given missile. IIR just means the one tool at our disposal, flares, are functionally useless. Unless we get new flare types and can get into position to use them.
