R60M vs prop planes

Hey, in Helicopter PVE, I can’t lock prop planes. I know their heat signature must be much lower but are they impossible to lock with R60/M missiles?

Not impossible, just much harder. When I am using RU planes they usually only lock at about 1km. And that is prelocking the prop plane with radar or IRST to slave the R60M/MK to it first. Might be 0.5km lock range without a pre lock.

It is that dramatic huh? Damn, people are using IR missiles to kill 1 plane every 3 second…
