Bad energy retention and bad acceleration. That’s a very bad combo to have when fighting planes like MiG-19, Ariete, and Hunter F.6.
its perfectly mediocre, youre comparing it to some of the strongest flight models in the game and an aircraft with pretty op missiles
you’re fast enough to not fight them if you want to
that’s just straight up wrong tho, the SRAAMs are good at Extremely close range only, close enough that you can usually avoid getting there at all
MiG-19 and Ariete both have a Lot of Downsides that can easily be dealt with in the F-106, if you know how to avoid them
That’s absurd, since they’ve got buffed they got plenty of range, more so than aim9b/e
Can this be confirmed? I just used a SRAAM recenty, maybe a week ago, and it didn’t even reach 2km…
the seeker yes but the missile will run out of energy and explode after ~1.3km
Can definitely travel more than 1.3km, I’ve been hit when 3km away, and it’s more a matter of effective range, the aim9e doesn’t really have much speed to work with.
that’s just wrong then
Effective range of a SRAAM is ~ 900m because the missile simply Requires TVC to manoeuvre
Please show a Valid source like a Game replay or similar
Stat shark doesn’t have access to the Actual Game API
it doesn’t calculate the same way Gaijins servers do and this Guesstimator doesn’t even use a Realistic scenario
For something as simple as this it’s pretty good.
no because it gives you False results
that’s like Asking my Recruits, sure I’ll get an answer but I can almost guarantee they got absolutely no clue what they’re talking about
It doesn’t.
and you have Nothing to back that up
You’re discreditng without any sources either. It uses datamined data, statshark doesn’t work for anything resembling a complex scenario. But for something as simple as straightline perfomance against a stationary target? No reason it wouldn’t give a good enough result.
The only thing I find dubious is the total time it was on for, which I doubt the sraam has 6 seconds of burn time
wrong, my SRAAMs regularly reach out up to about 2.5 km
launch conditions really matter for that missile, off boresight shots cut down range by a LOT
here a Game Master asking you for a Confirmation source
I’m not the one that needs to give a source because I’m not the one that claimed this absurd range
show it to me please
I want to see it
I’ll try it out myself tonight but I just Have extreme doubt
Have you ever tried them since the buff?
regularly on the Harrier
really like em, at very close ranges 900m max
800m practical no escape zone is just good if you can get into range
