    And as CJ says, Ah shoot... here we go again! ( I like this saying so imma keep it at this point xD )
    Well as the title says, i tested out the amraam a bit on the dev server, and to be honest this time I used it it got better, im guessing that it went under a couple of updates so that would explain why. About the thumbnail; the aim-120 AMRAAM is totally usable with tws however it is not advisable to do so and I show why in the video.

    While there certainly has been some overhype regarding the Aim-120A/B, I think there has also been some overhype in the community regarding the capabilities of R-27ER and the means of play. ER has more range and speed. Maybe even a better ballistic coefficient. But since Aim-120 is ARH, the pilot can afford to push a bit closer before shooting to offset that and then notch for safety since Aim-120 doesn't require mothership terminal guidance, and R-27ER does. Gives you first shot priority too since the ER slinger in question may be too busy defending your at that point, very dangerous Aim-120 to re-lock you without likely dying. Feel it's a worthy counter (In its final, polished form), but it must be used correctly, and you've gotta know your missiles well.

      @@hemendraravi4787 R-77 is extremely close to Aim-120A/B. The argument I see being made most often by people downplaying the Aim-120 is that the ER is just better, and the AMRAAM isn't that good. Yes, R-77 exists. But if you shoot a Fox-1 at super long range and then follow it up with an R-77 from closer range, that isn't exactly the wombo-combo you think it is. Dude with the Aim-120's gets closer, shoots, and notches. ER plane then defends launch, or shoots R-77 and goes cold (He is now 2 missiles down for similar PK's). That other ER is now less useful since you can no longer leverage the range advantage and need to hold lock all the way to impact. It'd honestly just be better to take 6xR-77 since ER has more limitations and R-77 still has range competitive with the other Fox-3's. These will be the great equalizer

    "The games not ready for AMRAAM's they're going to be OP as fuck". Literally every person that's been talking about them since before the test server. Just like Spikes they though oh F&F missiles are goin to break the game. Everyone is going to be doing the exact same stuff as before hugging the ground and watching as the missiles dive into the ground. Possibly they might even notch whenever someone locks on.

  • @ashrodrigues3571
    @ashrodrigues3571 3 місяці тому +1

    No they are not. I will point that out that since the introduction of SARH misseles america has been stuck with a slow responding/bad G limit for almost 3 years now, not to count countries that used variantions of the sparrow they suffered the most, since America has received "upgraded" versions of it the UK and Sweden have been stuck with basically an AIM 7E-2 at top tier. So that comes to help them a lot and getting the 120 means we get
    1. A faster response missele
    2. Better G limit
    And 3. Something to make top tier "balanced"
    Since the ER was added what happened? Ppl just flew low bc what's the poont of being high if an ER is headed towards you all u can do is notch the radar? That's unbalanced and left USSR dominating top tier for almost 1 year now( mind the fact it was added back in the 1st update of 2023)
    So in conclusion it's not overhyped it's a needed addition to either make USSR planes go low to or get ppl to climb again and try to do BVR kills again

    tws is kinda bad and i had a better experience hard locking with search or hmd and then break imidiently. Yes also the amraam is slower than the r27er but it can counter it cause you can defend the er and the amraam can track, thats my experience so faar. btw accpted the rules but i still cant see any voice chats on the dc or more.

  • @TackshooterOG
    @TackshooterOG 3 місяці тому

    If the AMRAAM isnt the best in class at top tier then there is zero reason to blame other than russian bias. The AMRAAM was inarguably the best Radar missile until maybe the advent of the PL-15 and will likely remain the case as the AMRAAM-D will be the last variant or upgrade more than likely. This is due to several long range programs scheduled to deliver a potential replacement for the ARAAM-D, The intent of the missile will be to compete if not dominate the pl-15's range using a dual prop system like the EU's Meteor but able to fit inside the weapons bays of F35/F22 as well as the NGAD. Hope Warthunder and I live long enough to see some of these planes in game.
