Will the aim120D really "save" US top tier?

Apparently the Aim-120D is worse then the Aim-54.

isnt aim154 an air-to-ground missile? its not even in the game

dont u mean aim54?

guys actually the extra battery life on aim120D is really game changing cuz it will annoy the enemy RWR for a minute longer

US top tier is really saved omg why didt i think about that

If the missile does not fall out of the sky that is

but that isnt a requirement for them to nerf its performance

they can do that purely off vibes, to the point that it no longer reaches its known G limt

As pointed out by Flame in another thread, HOBS means something other than what people think it means.

In addition, the AIM-120D will have increased range and third party targeting which expands the HOBS launch envelope.

We know how this works. HOBS maneuvers are just GPS enabled English Bias. So it’s basically precomputed prior to release, and tell it where to look and what to look for.

AIM-7 English bias

Hes right though. I see fellow American pilots firing on opponents who ware nearly notching already

not really a point that matters as iv seen rafales launche micas the same way at the end of the day the conversation is about the stats of the missile something every nation that uses the missile complains about not just the US.

dont worry they’ll cry enough for it

Yeah. Alot of my kills are using my amraam so they cant notch my sparrow

Now short answer was. Its bad similar like a C-5 and have a bad seeker then C-5.

[DEV] AIM120D lacking HOBS and other performance issues // Gaijin.net // Issues another report denied these mods need to be screened or something.

I am sure they did screen all comrade’s already

Its almost funny how they made the internal ammo rack for the bmpt external (at least for a while)
despite the source saying the opposite

But we have to fight to get a better aim120c

No he’s not. How is it US pilot fault/skill issue that they can’t perform as well as the Rafale/Su-30SM2 when they’re stuck with inferior planes and inferior missiles?

You think Rafale and Su-30 pilots don’t do that? Lol, lmao even.

Not only that but calling skill issues on others when you personally rock a K/D of 0.5 in the F-16C and 0.3 in the F-18C is funny. And you can’t even say that ground RB is polluting your air stats judging by the really low amount of ground kills you have with them.

I never claimed to even try to be good. I just like the pretty plane. But clearly you dont understand people play games for fun. Plus my best plane is probably the f4c. But idk i never check player stats.

I sure can. Most of the deaths are getting spawn killed by pansir. And another reason is because i go afk to smoke. But yeah.

No issue there, I haven’t played War Thunder seriously in years either. That said, it’s not reasonable to tell players who are clearly more experienced than you to ‘learn to play’ simply because they point out that a mid aircraft with mid missiles is, unsurprisingly, mid.

Using ‘skill issue’ as an argument is already weak in most cases. But if you’re going to rely on it, you should at least be prepared to support that claim with your own performance.

Good news(ish), 120C5, C7, D have all recieved a slight buff to their turning performance.

The distance from CoM to stab was increased to match that of the 120A/B

Any changes to seeker?
