I wouldnt call the aim7e a meme missile.
Besides, his argument was “planes without chaff cant defend therefore op” to chaff-less planes, the aim7e is also just as much of a threat.
It is an event plane that just became available like 2 days ago. The spam is normal.
In terms of the range and speed, yeah. Though anything with flares should be fine against it due to its lack of IRCCM.
Again, in speed and range, sure. But it has no data-link and its tracking is much worse. Plus its radar holds the missile back.
I feel like this is going to be like the other jets similar to it. It will do great in down tiers and struggle in uptiers. It might go to 11.3 eventually but the 12.0 group is an issue.
Personally, i enjoy the aim7e family. They do have their “aim7 moments” but i think they are some of the more consistent ones. Aim7f and above do some weird things at times.
Its radar is weird. It struggles to lock things because of the wide and slow search and its locks are 50/50. Sometimes, i lock and missile ignores chaff. Other times, i lock and even without chaff, the missile ignores the lock and goes for the ground.
For high alt head-ons, it works really well.
The R40RD is the strongest of its missiles, i agree. They do rely of the enemy not seeing it since they are easily flared.
They are the biggest reason i could see it go up.
It if got 4 of them, i would see this at 11.7.
Until you fight anything with decent SARH. Thats the issue.
I dont know who that is and i dont really trust youtubers. I could go make a compilation of me getting 4+ kill games in the F4C and say the same thing.
Funny note on this. I had a match earlier today where i ripped both of my wings off and made it back to base and landed.
Im surprised you dont know who he is. He drops a new video every 10 mins lol.
Personally i could live with the 25 at 11.0.if it didnt have the IRs but even with the best awareness you are still getting surprised missile from space every game
Removing data linked spotting system would fix it but.aint happening as they would at least have more effort finding targets.
If you think that MiG-25 is in RB battles OP then you should see it in arcade. That thing is there on BR 10.7 and radar of that ignore ground even from high altitude because thats how radars works in arcade. Its massacre of everything what is not MiG-25.
The IRST helps alot. If you use narrow beam IRST, you can lock a target pretty fast, then switch from IRST to Radar and it’ll maintain the lock with radar after switching.
