I mean I’m always willing to play, though imma head to bed soon
its not the meta missile because mica exists
it is better than or equivalent to amraam in pretty much all situations
Wouldn’t really say the Rafale can match the F-15E/Typhoon and AMRAAM combo, it wouldn’t do as well using the same strategy as it doesn’t get up to altitude and speed as fast as they do, the mica suits better for what the Rafale is better suited for as well, brawling at close ranges
Except that it’s not? Its on the Su-30SM, which has undisputably the 2nd best radar in-game (or flatly the best depending on your opinion of the RBE2) and even despite being on a worse kinematic platform, exceeds the AIM-120 in kinematic performance, while carrying dramatically more magazine depth, to the point that it can literally BVR straight at you in your EF-2000, shoot down all your “sooooo powerful BVR AIM-120s” and still have half its missiles left to chase you home, sad and stupid with your tail between your legs.
I don’t think you realise how sluggish the SU-30 is in comparison, it didn’t get the SU-27SMs engine thrust, only getting the ability to TVC whilst the airframe also increasing in weight. And you mention about shooting down missiles, not really much a single SU-30 is going to do vs multiple F-15s and Typhoons at high altitude lobbing missiles at people who are staying low before they get a chance to shoot, it isn’t as clear cut a strategy as you might think it is.
I’m not talking out of my ass, unlike you. I actually have all of these aircraft.
Oh so now it’s not an ARB match, but a coordinated flight? My my my how the goal posts move.
But if you really want to imply that it is an ARB match, what are all the Su-30SMs teammates doing while it’s somehow being singled out🤔. Could it be they are closing the distance unopposed to trounce those F-15s and Typhoons with dramatically higher PK missiles!!?!?😱

The engagements around this ‘muh 120 is the best’ dude has been an entire psyop frfrfr
These are stats you can literally look at in the X-ray alone…
Haven’t moved the goalposts at all, the only planes flying at high-altitude are F-15Es and Typhoons, and a LOT of people play them… you’re just making stuff up lol
it actually dose
And you’re claiming it’s sluggish, having flown the worst flanker a grand total of 5 times as a comparison…
Spoiler
This could be used for basically your entire argument as well.

And so comically easily you actually are better off using the drop tanks to keep from ripping your wings while you do it
When did I say I had flown the flanker and was using that as a comparison? Again, making up an argument cause you’re angry… The SU-30s sluggishness compared to the SU-27SM is widely known throughout the community, because it takes a single brain cell to figure out less thrust + increased weight = worse kinematic performance.
Which would matter if the R-77-1 didn’t do so much heavy lifting it doesn’t even matter

its actually really funny that you said this considering you flew face first into the dirt like 3 times trying to multipath during the 1v1 lol

Just trying to be reasonable tbh, also considering the amraam already has had its aoa nerfed earlier
Because I said something doesn’t mean I’m going to pretend multipathing isn’t currently a thing (even though it shouldn’t be.) I mean you said that an AMRAAM wouldn’t even go near a moving launched at 40+km, yet you still had to notch and dodge missiles which ended up getting you killed multiple times… rather ironic, isn’t it?
okay so it turns out you actually WERE firing from those ranges but you know what is HILARIOUS about this? they were so ineffective i didnt even NOTICE! i was closing into below 30km to fire (a range mica can hit from if your curios) and STILL your missiles didnt hit me a SINGLE time.

???
So why were you notching and chaffing in your video then?
am i supposed to keep flying straight when my rwr goes off or nah?
Everyone tells you that 120AB can’t pull 35G, you still want so much without nutrition, don’t talk nonsense, like a child.
