LOL, good job…its a nice, different plane.
I missed your offer, yes, I would like to see some dogfights in it if you get around to it. It seems to suffer from uptiers and its current BR.
To be honest, I dont know whats up in any of my planes mate, it seems out of my last 50 battles Ive had about 40 uptiers and 40 crappy teams. I am “usually” one of three left against 8 or 9 enemy planes. I will tell you a great plane that always gets with crappy diarrhea teams, …F15a, man, 27% winning percentage in it, and its a great plane, can compete with 13.7s with good radar coupled with great radar, and a million countermeasures, speed, …etc, always me and a mate fighting 10 enemy planes 2 minutes after battle starts.
Some of your dogfights would be nice, anything on YouTube is a year old, and a lot has changed since then. Thank You
I do well in it and im not a good air player 🤷♂️
Thank You
I played a couple matches. I guess my teammates decided that they actually wanted to help me today because I could hardly get any time in a 1v1.
I did have some defensive flying at least.

Just use your insane climb rate to outrun people and use the redtops at 1.5km max (2km if you have good speed and altitude compared to target)
Remember to lead your missiles.
Thank You, I appreciate that.
Thank You, I do appreciate that, I noticed at about a 20 degree angle, even in an uptier, not many of the planes deal with that well. One thing about the Red Tops, they have a wonderful lead circle and are pretty quick.
Well done, reminded me of the story of the old fiddle at auction nobody wants until The Master picks it up and plays it, “The Hands of the Master” LOL…
Yes, I see your speed only dropped below 800km/hr only one time after engaging the enemy, you used its climb rate very well, and did a pretty deft maneuver over the Hunter.
I dont have a lot of experience in it yet, but it seems to not compress very easily, and handles very well.
Also as a side note, I see when you landed you didnt bother with the landing gear, all Vets know that.
Well done mate, I am glad you took the time to send me that. YouTube vids are so old on it, and you know how much the game has changed just in the last six months. For instance when I started flying CL Mk 6 it was at 9.7, now its at 9.0 I believe.
Thank you mate!! Very Helpful, I am a little tentative in it, because of the lack of gun…but I see you have to take it to them and think out of the box.
Thanks. If I am good at one thing, it is defensive flying.
I usually use free look and look behind while using the keyboard flight controls. And dont forget about air brake and flaps.
Ironically, i usually land the sea vixen on the gear but i was in a hurry.
I guess i do play the first pass rather aggressively in it. It is pretty easy to dodge headons so i feel safe to do it. But some jets will be able to turn around and catch up, like a mig19.
Mate Im going to fly my Sea Vixon a little later on, but right now Im flying props for first time in a while just for some “relaxiing” flying…But when I spent a little money over the holidays I picked up the Chinese P51C-11-NT. Mate that thing is a monster, whether its in a uptier or not. I really never liked P51s, Im a Me109 guy, but there is something about that plane, it maneuvers well, holds its speed like a Sabre.
I do not know if you have one, but its worth checking out.
Will probably fly Cannon Chaika as well, Me109 G2 trop, I love that thing, just havent flown props in a minute, in a mood to tonight.
LOL your video got me hyped on flying the Vixon later on
Markimash youre a really good pilot BTW. I like chatting with you on here, because you are good, but not always talking about skill issues. Always a genial conversation.
Im chat banned…for about 9 more months. Bad thing is I was responding to some Trolls and Teamkillers, of which there seems to be more nowadays… and so I miss discussing planes. My chat ban started in a battle where I said “Good Luck”, and then stfu followed from two trolls…three days later, Year Long Chat Ban, but I understand it from the language I used LOL…Its funny when I first started in Beta, in chat you would see, “Play With Honor” a lot, now…thats lost.
Arent there all kinds of good planes in game?, …I see you crushed it in F8E. Im going to go with the 7.7 Meteor tonight at some point, 24sec turn time, good climb rate at 7.7…flying a little of everything tonight, from Chaika to F15c…
Good Luck and thank you for your info and help.
I have not played prop air rb for a while. I also dont have much of the Chinese tree rn.
Thanks but i am only good at a certain br range. outside of that, i suck.
If someone is willing to learn, i have no issues helping. But i will push back on those that just come to complain and give every possible excuse on why it is the vehicle’s/game’s fault and not their own.
True. But you have two choices. Either keep it alive or let it die. Personally, I still do stuff like not engaging enemies that clearly have no way to recover as well as leaving pinged bases to those that pinged it.
There are certainly some fun planes to fly. As for the f8e, the aim9c is such a fun missile to use even thought its guidance is bad.
No problem. Enjoy jumping around the tech trees.
If you want to chat, we should probably move this to DMs so it doesnt clutter this thread.
