Why in the ever living hell are there Radar missiles bellow 10.0?

Genuinely.

I don’t mind heat seakers, at least you get some warning or atleast KNOW when they are gonna be launched due to how a plane behaves.

Yet radar missiles are just completely impossible to predict, and you just get slammed face first by a Aim-4 or Aim-7 you physically can’t dodge before its too late.

I mean the Aim-4 is just EXTRA insulting to have under 10.0, a mach 3, 9km range radar missile, with a 27G overload, WTF is any sub 10.0 plane supposed to even begin to do about that?

Great idea, IF WE HAD ANY WARNING THEY WERE COMING.

multipath

You mean spend the entire time on the deck where the American’s or Russian’s will always just pick you apart with their guns? Great idea.

then pre notch

Maybe Radar Missiles shouldn’t be fighting Supermarine Swifts, F-86s, and Other 8.7-9.7 planes.

Because they are sitting DUCKS.

Same reason why there’s 20km range TV missiles at 10.0 and laser guided even earlier, balancing high tier aircraft is difficult and the devs certainly don’t know what to do with em.

You keep repeating that like it means anything. You Notch you are just gonna get gunned down, or eat a IR missile at that BR, you aren’t fast enough, or agile enough to do all those complicated manuvers, They have 2nd Gen Jet Fighters being thrown against Super sonics with radar missiles they have no hope of countering.

knowing what to do does change a lot

genuinely, go play something like the Swift F.7, or Scimitar. You will just get picked off by radar missiles you genuinely can’t counter in any way.

Or god forgive the javelin.

Hell the brits, or basically any other tree don’t get Radar missiles till 12.0 or above. WHY do the American’s and Russians get the privilege to just farm people with theirs at way lower in BR.

its not Difficult, Just don’t give planes weaponry they don’t need, if they can’t function at a BR where that Weaponry would be balanced.

Just because it has that weaponry IRL, does not mean it NEEDS it in game.

Holy fuck imagine not being able to counter an AIM-4F or AIM-7C 😭 insane levels of skill issue

if you genuinely think that having all Aspect Radar missiles anywhere near ww2 era, and post war Jets is a “skill issue” Then you need to re-evaluate things

The Aim-4 does MACH 3, and has a 27g overload.

And the Aim-7 has a Longer range, same speed. The only difference is it has a alot less maximum overload.

It can *technically" pull 27G but it will be slow as fuck and any chance of it hitting will be a miracle

Also, it has no proxy so you can just… outroll it

If you get super slow that’s on you dawg

Let us know what 10.0 got 20KM tv missiles.
And now speaking realistic range.
