Sure, and I want to sling PL15s from a J16 right this moment.
Speed is king, why do you think people are complaining about the f/a 18
look again at OP’s post.
he is complaining not only about F/A-18.
He complains about ‘R-77-1’ because he believes that it destroyed the balance and looks like Russian bias.
and suggesting ‘give AIM-120C to F-15E and F/A-18C’ for solution.
hello ?
umm i think you miss this part ?
The USA main is crying
they arent
aim-7f has a smaller diameter than the 7m
the 7m has a different seeker irl than the 7f
because they are alot better than the su-30
inverse monopulse right, same as R-27 and 24.
yes,
or the skyflash for that matter
The only actual imbalance there is in your own skill. The missiles are fine, as well as their platforms.
The AIM-120B is carried by absolute BVR monsters like the F-15E and Eurofighter, which can get high and fast in a short time. The R-77-1 is comparable, if not slightly better than the AMRAAM-B, but is mounted on a platform with much worse acceleration - the Su-30SM.
Up until this update, Russia received the short end of the stick in air battles, like the Su-27 flight model severely underperforming for over a year, the R-77 being an incredibly draggy missile and being unable to compete in long range shots with the AIM-120, the Flankers having horrendous radars that would take forever to display/update information, and so on.
Should America or other nations suffer because Russia did it a few updates ago? No. Should Russia somehow be nerfed more because US mains keep crying they arent automatically winning the game? Also no. You just have to understand that Russia being competitive is not “russian bias” or “unfair”.
You sound exactly the same as Germany mains did a few years ago arguing for historical accuracy and balance because their Tiger tank was facing equal opponents instead of BT-7s and early T-34s and Shermans.
Wait, stuck with AMRAAM? I am only stuck with the best missile, once someone comes anywhere near, I just need to have another OP missile to dominate for another year.
At present, gajin nerf lock-range R-77-1 same AIM-120A/AIM-120B, AAM-4, PL-12 and R-77/RVV-AE
I want gajin increase lock-range 16 → 20 or 25 km for R-77-1, and expand BR to 14.3 for Su-30SM
I suppose AIM-120C-5 (20 km on stat card) for USAF/ USN and USA allies fighter aircraft. but gajin should decompression BR to 14.3 before add AIM-120C-5 on F/A-18C Late and another nato fighter aircraft top tier (except USAF F-16A Block 15 ADF, F-16AM and french fighter aircraft)
Issue is, all ARH are nerfed in game, but is 14.3 enough? I mean AMRAAMC5 definitely has capability to kill from 30km+, then no one can compete, again, no firing back available. I think we need at least sth like 15.0 before AMRAAM C5, and by that I don’t mean waiting for vehicles to fill up to 15.0, but more like decompression of current vehicles + new vehicles. I just don’t think AMRAAM C-5 will be suitable for 14.3.
Or increase max BR to 14.7 this year, and 15.0 in Q1 2026
BR 15.0 before add the early 5th gen WVR Air-to-Air Missile on 4th gen & 4.5 gen fighter aircraft top tier
AIM-120C-5 lock-range 20 or 25 km on stat card ? I’m not quite sure 😔
but lock-range inferior R-77-1 and AIM-120C-7
you mean like how you all whined and complained about the F-15E Engines because they are superior to anything in the game?
Not sure how this is relevant or comparable
Yes but gonna be good, 30km means consistent 30km plus kills, not 30km locks, as u can guide it with aircraft radar.
Similarly we don’t quite know how far is the lock range for other missiles. E.g. PL12 is equivalent to AMRAAM C (pre C-5 motor upgrade), so it is also nerfed to suite current game, differently China wouldn’t have a C-5 equivalent, jumped straight to PL-15, so I am just not confident in that case the game could be balanced if not extended to 1.0 + BR. Also just to say, there’s more compressed areas than top tier, so 15.0 could literally be in game RN.
