Update 2.47.0.128

still no RP back for my AIM-7 Modification on F-16A ADF Blk15 USA

no bro r77-1 is better than almost anything other than a mica

Imo r73 only works bc its on the flankers. The flanker sucks at dogfighting so you can just stall out while getting into position and launch an r73 and pray that it hits.

See, i absolutely suck at rate fighting and using cannons with supersonic aircraft. Im talking worst aim known to man. So I do whatever I can to keep my enemies at distance. So if I end up in dogfight, I tend to rememeber it.

Over the course of the event, I had two games where I ended up in a dogfight with Sukhoi.

Once in 18C early vs Su-33 and second time in EFT vs. Su-30SM. Both times enemy sukhois turned off their AoA limiter and tried to go all Mihaly Shilage on my ahh.

Judging by how well it went for them, id say stalling out in Su is the worst possible thing you can do.

well if ur using a flanker you jsut cant ratefight anyway

Well the button is just for emergency. Using it normally is just a quick way to go back to the hangar.

27SM actually can ratefight, and for some reason even does that better than it supposed to. Not against UFOFighters and Rafailures obviously.

Found the best way to beat the AIM-120 carriers in a BVR engagement with the su-33 is to launch R27ERs at around 48-44km away and making manual lofting for the missile by pitching up right before launch, it scares most of them in to an defensive move before they can fire back since the R-27ER outranges the AIM-120

Gaijin,
Please be fair. Mig 29 SMT has ARH, IRCCM, and HMD. Why F-16 only got ARH with 9L and you bump to 13.3? Even the F-16 MLU only got aim9P REAR ASPECT in the beginning.
Please don’t be so biased.

Maybe, just maybe because MiG 29 SMT has one of the worst flight models in the bracket? Alongside ARH missiles that struggle to fly past 15-20km even at high altitude?

have there been any changes to the BR-changes due to the given feedback? We mostly give feedback as GJ wished (every post related to one change) but my impression is that the BR-changes were applied like originally announced…
btw: In the BR-changes thread there are more than 3300 posts…

bye bye Peacock - it was mostly pain to play here at 4.0 but now it will be rusting in the harbour - how many soviet coastal ships went up in BR in the last 5 BR-changes???

To where? the Pr.206/SKR are already 4.3, like the Peacock.

I bet you were not complaining when your Peacock was bullying PT boats, lol.

While the Peacock going 4.3 is dumb, implying it’s somehow because of russian bias is dumber.

The Peacock has a heavy DM with a PT spawn, enabling any semi-competent player to behave like a pitbull in a daycare until the DDs roll in.
This is merely Gaijin shafting the Frigates further because they have no place in the current naval landscape.

An amraam will still hit you if you turn, you have toy totally flee to avoid it

You clearly haven’t played sim. Aim-9ms are invisible, you just have to always assume one has been launched. They apparently don’t care about ircm which is a bit bs. And flaring they also don’t care about, and can often be launched at a flaring plane and score a hit.

If the enemy is low iq, and allows a dogfight, yes then the R-73 is good, but only then, in every other circumstance it’s merely a slightly harder turning R-60M

Yea bro. I haven’t used mica, but I loved using the aim-120bs, now I’ll have to get the Cs.

Why don’t they just reduce the matchmaking bracket from 1.0 to 0.7? That would solve so many issues

Yeah, I agree. Feels like such a simple fix

It would not only fix that but overall the game would be so much more fair, like bruh why do I sometimes see some poor spitfires when playing my Ouragan?
