The close-range rudder effect and angle of attack of the AIM-120A&B air-to-air missiles should be strengthened

Well done, you repeated exactly what he said for no reason even though we’ve already discussed that just because a missile doesn’t hit an aircraft doesn’t mean he’s already at a disadvantage because of his positioning, you’re late to the party…

So it’s fine for you to use a strawman but when it’s flipped onto you it doesn’t matter? You’re pathetic xD

what?
thats exactly what u said

Bro… do you not even understand your own point anymore?…

do you understand what u said or are u ragebaiting
cuz im pretty sure ur doing the latter
everyone has been saying that 120A/B isnt as effective as you think, and u keep going the wrong way
just say u did a oopsie and move on, its not difficult to admit that ur wrong
unless i hit ur nerve(which i didnt cuz i dont know u)

Maybe Because the Aim-120 is fine as it is when people want to buff it even more? Which is literally what the entire point of this thread is.

i mean
buffing AIM-120 would mean buff everything else
which mean more miserable top tier but also mean more accurate
C-5 prenerf was damn good, now its basically an 120A+B=C(which they are basically the same thing now +/-)

I didn’t even get to see the C-5 pre-nerf, but looking at it now, there’s honestly no point in even adding it considering Gaijin want to ‘help’ the worst performing 14.0 aircraft

they add it cuz C-5 is on the SLAMRAAM
the SLAMRAAM is even shittier, it cant even reach 15km or kill slightly manuvering target at 10km

Yeah I thought that’d be the case, launching an AMRAAM which you already need to be flying at 1000mph for it to go a good distance, from a SAM was never really gonna be very competitive

cuz they are nerfed
it creates a dilemma because gaijin add C-5 to planes
If C-5 on ground launch can reach 20-25km range(base on publicly available source), they air launch would be 3-4 times better due to speed and altitude, but then that wouldnt be balance, so they nerf C-5 to match the balance but that would also mean to nerf the SLAMRAAM C-5 too, which mean that it would suck

Nerfing only air C-5 would create rant, bcuz muh C-5 ground good but muh C-5 air bad, why is cuz they are the same

And ofc if air is too good then its unbalance, but since gaijin code them the same, then if nerf C-5 then nerf for both, but buff would also be for both, because “muh the same”

Currently C-5 on planes is more balance now, but ground? Absolutely ass

What I don’t get is that they could’ve gone with the 120C-3/4 on aircraft and put the 120C-5/7 on the SLAMRAAM. But they chose to bite the bullet and go straight to the C-5 for the aircraft which has forced them to nerf it.

they dont want another “unecessary” flight model modelling
so they chose the riskiest and most lazy route

Not even surprised honestly, it’s why I don’t have much hope for top tier in the future, the community will constantly eat up the newest hot technologies without punishing Gaijin for not updating core gameplay mechanics to accommodate the new technology

given that they working on the 9X to work they probably gonna add it too
so more miserable top tier, but not for me heehee

Yeah I’m waiting patiently on the new IIR missiles, I know that Gaijin won’t model them properly, and I know it’s going to be miserable gameplay, but why not
