Thanks Gaijin, the thing with the rockets and the bases was just unbearable and unrealistic.
Finally this is history. Gone are the days when you dropped your bombs and a rocket player shot them out from under your nose with mini rockets from a distance.
There’s zero reason for you to let AIM-54s be launched on you to begin with.
You don’t know AIM-9Es are launched on you either.
If you die to AIM-54s, you’re still new to the BR and will always die to AIM-120s that are infinitely superior missiles.
I’ve went against many F-14s in my J35XS, died to none cause I learned the flaws of AIM-54s years ago.
" A bug that caused the reward multiplier for base bombing to be higher than it should have been for pods with bombs and rockets has been fixed. Prior to the fix the amount of weaponry in the pod was not taken into account."
Using the word “fix” is naughty, be honest and say nerf soon. You reduced the reward for destroying bases, with Milan and the premium account I earned 29k SL per base destroyed, now I only receive 24k. a 17% reduction in reward. The same applies to research points.
it does not have an RWR, you cannot possibly ever know if one is launched at you from 60km+ out, and you cannot simply flare it or evade it with a single turn like an AIM-9E, completely nonsense argument which is what i expect from you tbqh
You can dodge AIM-54s and put terrain between you and them…
There’s a reason I have zero deaths to AIM-54s in all aircraft except Tornado cause I wanted to see what would happen to my aircraft if I got hit by an AIM-54.
The maximum range doesn’t matter once it’s launched.
If you want practice I’ll get in my F-14 and assist.
The AIM-54 was useless from 2022 - December 2023… not sure how people forgot how to defeat them when they’ve been doing it for over a year, with me doing it in the Mirage 3C
to get any range out of the missile you have to be up high and with the aim-54 you have to be going faster than mach since its slow acceleration. Being up high leaves the 14 vulnerable to being shot down from underneath since that is a blind spot for the rwr.
At the start of the match the f-14 players are looking for people going in a straight line if you are going off to the side your chances of having a aim-54 shot at you reduces significantly. Look up at the contrails when you see the spam turn left or right, do a 180 and then finally back toward the main battle. Best way to deal with the aim-54 with no rwr.
gee that high altitude F-14 sure seems vulnerable to my rear aspect only AIM-9Js with poor range
there’s just no reason this thing should be 11.3 when the J-7E is 11.0
