The MI28NM problem

Ok. It makes them viable then. Helicopters are slow and cannot evade missiles as well as planes. If they did not have DIRCM, why wouldn’t I pick a CAS plane over them?

Ok Gaijin can make it so that these systems can be overwhelmed. Sure that’s good.

Then the helicopters would get destroyed and there would be no reason at all to play them.

Adjust with BR

Although Close Air Support really isn’t a thing on a modern battlefield, at least not in a plane + heli combo

Hey maybe ground RB will finally be Ground RB, who knows

It kinda is. With all the new SPAAs CAS abilities are greatly reduced. Unless nobody on your team has an SPAA, I think that CAS isn’t as big of a threat anymore.

Or make them competitive? So anyone with CAS munitions on a plane can just ditch the heli? That’s not balance, that’s not fun. Why cant you let there be a variety of aircraft with air to ground abilities that are viable to play for people to choose from?

because sim is a dead gamemode balanced like crap, su27sm is fine nowadays but the bad radar coupled with the double scan bug made it unplayable in sim. i wouldnt use sim as an example for anything considering its completely neglected.

im sorry to diagnose you with dementia…
see the following (its from the past)

nope.it does not.
i think its most likely a 34 rather than a 30SM

then the environment is to be complained about. because yes, it favours NATO aircraft. its not the REDFOR aircraft are worse. its gaijins lackluster gameplay initiative. they make gamemodes that suck

you seriously are forgetting things…

im not complaining about BA-11, in fact i support its addition. i would even go and say give the Z-10ME 16 of the BA-11
but the LDIRCM is the issue. not the TY-90 or the BA-11

i only mentioned those weapons to point out that those 3 helis do have ways to defend themselves even without imaginary fake force fields. unlike other helis at the exact same BR without any of those three qualities (gun, missile, LDIRCM)

already proven that IRIS-T is immune to LDIRCM

yeah good luck justifying fake additions because there are many countries that dont have this feature and wont for a VERY long time

The picture in there is indeed a Su-34 as seen by the landing gear

Since when the 30G aim9m is superior to the 40G r73???

I know some people say it has better ircm, but the truth is with enough flares both missiles can be dodge, especially frontally.

Agm65 appears before russian counterparts. What about the su25 with kh38 and even mig27k? They also has decent cas armament.

Finally, yes russia does not have targeting pod ingame and irl at top tier. So only that point in ur favor. But still calling russian cas mediocre is because the guy using it just sucks.

Well, from the very beginning, the AIM-9M was superior to the R-73 because it had a better seeker. And the R-73’s overload is useless because the missile is limited in its maneuverability.

this shit doesnt make sense at all
9Ms is one of the worst IRCCM seekers in the game, it has piss manuverability compare to everything else
it doesnt pull as much as r73 either

An invisible 9m you don’t know that’s coming, and waste flares assuming it is coming, or, R-73 that can be easily tricked with 1 flare.

Why is Sim relevant in a thread specifically tagged with GRB?

Lmao I never said their cas was crap. In capable hands anything is usable. Thanks for the jab there telling me i suck.

In sim, the aim-9m is vastly better. You don’t get a big Diamond telling you it’s coming.

Idk someone else brought up some point about Russian cas

Looool, cause you keep saying that a laser that protects a side that can´t physically protect (and cover against multiple missiles) is ok because “it makes helis usable” or something like that.

It’s the same in ground RB in this case, also has no markers.

Was answering this comment

Oh and I meant Su-30sm giving us a hard time, got confused with the Su-33 lol

Really cant understand this comment, I got killed several times by R-73 even when flaring and also while doing close dogfights.

You have any video that shows r73 being useless with the 40G overload??

There are plenty in YT that show it works

I think we should just focus on the helicopters matter and let everything else for the after.

The R-73 before the nerf and now are two different missiles.
