My av-8b na turns quite well, I was keeping up with an F-5E and then I did this near trick where I went into hover mode and he couldn’t turn in enough then he ate an Aim-9L

And they are underperforming like crazy.

There is a reason why IRL the Sea Harrier FRS1 absolutely destroyed F-5Es in 1v1 dogfights but in-game its the reverse.

Harrier 1s =/= Harrier IIs.

Harrier 1s should probably perform more like the Harrier IIs do, and the Harrier IIs should perform even better.

F-5s have 2-3 deg/sec too much STR. Harriers have 2-3 deg/sec too little. They should litereally swap their current STRs. This is also not factoring the fact that VIFF actually isnt modeled. It doesnt actually do 99% of what it should due to game limitations.

The F-5 eating a 9L though shows a clear skill issue on the part of the F-5. That should have been an easy 1 flare defeat

That’s great an all, but I’m not going to read, or believe you. You’re an exceptionally biased person, and have been proven so multiple times, and you been caught in a couple lies.

Calling the kettle black much.

“Su-39 would be fine to get R-77s at sub 12.0”

Reports are there. Cope about it
