flare res doesnt change
might be an unpopular opinion but id say the R-73 is closer to the 9L than the R-60’s are if it comes to their capabilities
one of the suspected reasons the flare resistance is so inconsistent right now is the bugged autopilot, because the missile won’t fly straight it might look worse than it is.
See, I totally agree with you but this is the part that bugs me about the whole discussion:
GB aircraft really are just flying bricks and are easy SL.
So players tend to flank HARD or wait for the furball and then intercept people who’re distracted.
Y’know what else can do that? The F-4 Phantom.
GB does well in statistics because players, like you said, do develop tactics to get kills. But you’re not playing the plane like it was intended. You’re not even playing it differently to Phantoms, F104s, Harrier GR1 etc.
Your survival relies on not being in a fight and kill stealing.
To me, that means the plane isn’t viable. It’s a high altitude interceptor, but is forced to be a low altitude boom and zoom plane. It’s dogshit. No different to the F104s playstyle
dont forget that basically every plane can intercept in warthunder so it aint even something special here
yes I think you’re right however it is also worth noting that the R-27ER is better than the AIM-7F and the R-73 is better than the AIM-9L, if Russia loses the R-27ER then the R-73 could be added sooner, otherwise Russia will have the advantage in both Fox1 and Fox2 missiles with comparable flight performance.
give them the 9M theyve been crying for just like the soviets have been crying for the 73 and everyone will be happy. well everyone that plays those 2 nations at least
While you’re absolutely right I think that the R-73 wouldn’t be too bad to come to the game on more aircraft, especially replacing the R-60M
No they shouldnt be possibly with the R-73 we have in game we know the Encam ent envelopes for R-73 thanks to Australian document
No teaser today
and now you come back to my original point that the AIM-9M was notably absent from the F-16C devblog, no AIM-9M means no R-73.
Bruh
which is why im still pissed off
That was added long before the Swedish tree was a thing.
on another note, are SPAA missiles bugged? they seem to very often just phase through things when hitting them directly and even if they do hit theyll usually be nothing more than a “mild inconvenience” for whatever got hit by it
ik
So why did you bring it up?
Smin denied the trailer (the ones that come after the update), not the teaser, although I’m probably just coping and looking to much into it
is the devbleg just a SPH?
cause i dint know before i brought it up
