because there is still a chance?
you know if you dont shoot that there isnt any chance of you killing it
you could have also easily killed the guy here by simply shooting your cannon
in side aspect
there is a thing called minimum engagement distance
ofc the missile will not hit a target HOBS at 700m, when you are supersonic
Yes, I know the minimum distance, but your IRCCM is nonexistent; you’d have to be very careless to die to an R73 or AIM9M.
As someone who has never touched top tier, even I can see you should’ve gone for the gun kill, and your plane even has a ballistic computer for guns so it was literally a free gun kill bruh
Honestly, skill issue and it’s crazy to hear me say this
Wasn’t there a friendly fire from a mig31 with a r33 that hit a mig29 at 240km or more ?
The R73’s IRCCM is garbage, it was nerfed a long time ago, the AIM9M has also been nerfed for a while. The issue isn’t whether I used the cannon or not; I have over 5,000 battles on platforms with the R73 and good stats in most of them. I know very well what I’m talking about when I say this thing is a piece of crap; it’s just an R60M with TVC and greater range.
IRCCM values are ok, i think the main issue with the R-73 is that it’s just slow compared to its competitors, Magic 2s and PL-8Bs just accelerate so much faster an closing the gap faster making the IRCCM much more effective
r-74m and r-74m2 both have increased thrust motors so they will be better at least
I hope some more detailed info about 2019 modernisation program for R-27 would surface eventually. Only vague info about new seeker, new guidance system and new fuel charge for the rocket motor is mentioned with some bold claims of it being comparable to 120C
It would keep flankers uniqueness as the platform with effective SARH missile at top tier
has anything been done about the Su-30SM2’s missing countermeasures?
If i remember some had made bug reports on it, yet none were accepted or acknowledged as of yet
It has been accepted but nothing ever happens
I like how irl the SM2 doesn’t have Al-41 or ibris, but it DOES have the extra CMs.
And in game it has AL-41, Irbris, but no extra CMs…
It got forwarded as suggestion
Aka an endless limbo where you might as well age 90+ years
they got a secret guy interviewing someone inside sukhoi. they know something we dont
“forwarded as suggestion”
here have it as a proper gif
thank you, i couldn’t find the proper version
