Should EF2000s get AIM120C5?

(Proceeds to buff the MOST ABSURD missile in game) 😭 It’s actually insane I can just fly the Rafale straight up the middls, fire all 8 missiles at anyone under 20km regardless of altitude and get 6+ kills untouched as I turn around, lose no energy, and out accelerate the average missile 😭

Then it’s not really underperforming, is it

Maneuverability just isn’t important enough in the current top tier to nerf everything else like that. A dogfight using only fixed-forward weaponry at top tier nowadays is like a knife duel between two troopers, for that to happen, both of them has to lose all other weapons, etc. There’s a well-known example

It is important enough to the point an F15C with micas wouldn’t be as power creep as a rafale.

Besides, the majority of stuff you face still has amraams and 9Ms, so with the same weaponry the better platform wins.

The radar is also not anywhere near as bad as people make it seem to be.

It’s just an average top tier mec radar

At this point, your trolling has become too obvious, there’s no point in continuing this conversation

believe what ever you want about me
In my experience the radar is fine, maybe a bit buggy with the big scans, but the problems get fixed for the most part by using the narrow scan pattern.

Mind you i play air simulator battles, the mode where supposedly the avionics play a much bigger role than any other game mode and as far as i’m concerned the radar almost never disappointed me.

But sure, the radar is dogshit and the plane is unplayable because it’s weapons are abysmal, the flight model is underperforming and the avionics are subpar.

XD, explain this, ill wait

lol even Sea Harrier radar better than EFT and Gripen radar lol (and Gripen better than EFT)

Yes, I told about this earlier, that the mechanical radars on the F-16, Gripen, and other top-tier aircraft work MUCH better, even some former top-tier jets have better ones, if we’re talking about the same modes at the same distances. But the guy is just trying to troll. This time I managed to catch him with a specific example, let’s see how he tries to wriggle out of it.

wow, your PD radar cant find a target in a notch, definitely terrible and not a consequence of relying on relative velocity to find a target

The velocity vector indicator at the bottom of the lock-on box just exists, also this genius

yes and it shows that the eft couldnt lock in the second clip because the target was notching you

Hello guys

To update you, the Eurofighters will be receiving AIM-120C-5 also.

why literally making the game worse by buffing one of the most dominant planes

Really good !

Considering that the C-5s just got giga-nerfed, it doesn’t seem like that much of an upgrade lol.

true, but makes them less likely to be buffed (they should have significantly better off bore capability that 120A but dont in game right now)

Yeah its unfortunate.
