    My biggest issue with WT is at top tier you dont get the chance to have dogfights like this because someone just comes along and 3rd parties you with a missile or something. Top tier is just boring because of this to me. I wish Gaijin would add a 1v1 or 2v2 or 4v4 or something similar to this for top tier.

You just know that your opponent also has 1 skill, and 2 appreciates the finer things in life. Also, ALL KILL THEIVES HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL. When I get hit with a missile or gunned down. I "J" out ASAP so that person gets the kill. More people need to do that.

Technically the version we have in-game could be a Block 30/32 if the radars and engine match (I’m on mobile right now and can’t look at what it has in-game), but with how effective R-73s are right now we absolutely need more CMs on the 16 or it just can’t outflare the SMT as-is.

    The scary thing about the r 73 is, you loose like 10 CM to dodge 1, the mig still has atleast 3 more, and there are other migs, you will be out of cm after 2-3 missles and after that you are dead to even an aim9b. The r 73 is currently way to costly to defend against, you have to stay low because of the r27er and you have to pre or perma flare to not die to a r 73.

      ​@@neobrandeggenIt depends on which version of the AIM-9M is going to be added.
      The initial version had a better IRCCM capability, which should put it above the R-73A in terms of flare resistance.
      The later versions of the AIM-9M, like the AIM-9M-8 (I think it was the 8 not 100% sure rn) had also an hugely increased G-overload, up to 45g.
      So at best you would have a missile that can pull harder than the python does at the moment, but with better flare resistance than the R-73, and at the minimum just a AIM-9L with better IRCCM

    It only carried the AIM-9M (40G All Aspect Flare Proof) and the AIM-120. The radar can't even guide FOX1 missiles in real life. There's no need for it when you have FOX3 missiles, which it mostly carried 6.

    theres something in air combat called "jamming the wez" where you keep the dogfight tight enough that their missiles dont have the turn radius to attack you. because the f16 is the better dogfighter you jam the wez until youre both on the floor where you can just casually run them down in a 2 circle. if they extend, missile, if they dogfight, thats suicide against a good f16 pilot.
    jamming the wez is extra effective if you preflare, as a preflare when youre on the limit of their view will buy you enough time to get back into their blind spots in the moments that you pop out

    This just proves it you can have a superior performing aircraft (Not saying the f16 is definitely superior so no need to argue) in a dog fight and an HMS but the weaponry plays a larger roll. We can see sometimes the WEZ is jammed and the R73 will not track and the f16 will get the gun kill but when firing high off boresight fox2s there is just 0 comparison.

  • @rileygayming6933
    @rileygayming6933 8 місяців тому

    Sure the F-16C can win most dogfights with the MiG-29SMT, but the missiles are going to make up for it heavily. I mean just look at how much you have to sacrifice just to get a good shot on them, lose pretty much all of your speed and use up most of your countermeasures and gun ammo just to get 1 kill. Sure the missiles aren't perfect, but the MiG-29SMTs aren't going to need to take these kinds of dogfights in 16v16 matches if they can just drop 3-6 people with their missiles alone. The F-16C is good, but the MiG-29SMT is going to be better for the Air RB environment.

    • @AlmightyDude420

      Keep your nose behind his tail. Watch what he's doing and how he's moving. If you're catching up to him too quickly, turn off AB, maybe even airbrake. Don't dive too much, as it can causes you to go fast enough for him to force overshoot. MiG will do anything to force overshoot. Maintain your position behind him always.

    • @AlmightyDude420
      @AlmightyDude420 8 місяців тому

      @M1A2_Abrams_MBT That other guy is just a weirdo- feel free to turn off AB if you want.
      It's common sense that a guy who airbrakes AND turns off AB will slow down more than a guy just airbraking.
      But airbraking does slow you down more than turning off AB, which is what you need if you wanna lose speed quickly. But when the overshoot is imminent (closing the gap quick), you wanna do both. Pay attention to your opponent at all times to see the few seconds ahead what might turn into a reversal.
      If you DO overshoot when going at very low speed, go vertical-he can't follow it if you're already at near stalling speed.
      Remember that overshooting means that you have more energy than him, and you can use that to your advantage.
      If he reverses you while you're doing scissors, then you obviously shouldn't pull back again, continuing the scissors, because that will mean pulling right into his HUD again for a shot.
      After a reversal, dodge his guns and leave the scissors by pulling in the same direction into a rate fight. Don't DIVE into the rate fight, because that is a way for your opponent to get his speed back for the shot-either go into a horizontal or slightly vertical rate fight. Depending on the circumstances, a MiG-29 might be able to even get a second shot after the reversal shot, just because it can pull so much AoA, but dodge the guns and continue fight to your strengths which is the 2 circle (rate fight). Eventually you will get the position and win by playing this way.
      Also remember that the rate fight is BETTER than the one-circle fight, because if both pilots play to absolute perfection, the rate fighter will get the position in the end and win. But it requires patience and observing your opponent's moves.

    • @AlmightyDude420
      @AlmightyDude420 8 місяців тому

      ​@@toyotawitha20mm35 Yeah I saw this one. Nice try-it looks like you're trying to trick other people with this in the comments also, but it's not relevant to your argument. We're not talking about "who knows the F-16 better",, so you don't need to get defensive.
      How about you just tell me *why you should not turn your afterburner off ever.* Right here, just tell me. Because it doesn't add up.
      *Dogfighting to win only proves pilot skill, not your argument*
      And it's completely irrelevant, since the only correct and relevant thing to do would be to test our arguments by each getting into a MiG-29 and F-16 and fly under the specific condition of this strange debate we're having: An F-16 and MiG-29's in a sustained 2 circle fight with;
      -Different closure rates (How quickly F-16 is gaining on the MiG). The MiG could airbrake a tiny bit at the beginning, just to make the speed difference bigger for each example.
      -Each closure rate example at different speeds
      -Each closure rate at said speed with multiple demonstrations of AB off + airbrakes, and AB on + airbrakes for the F-16.
      -Each example of this tested such that the MiG tries to force overshoot to show effectiveness of each tactic, and the aftermath of this (both the result where the F-16 gains in the circle and kills the MiG before reversal AND where the MiG successfully forces overshoot). You'd try the vertical or horizontal rate fight to see if you can find differences by forcing overshoot in different positions. You'd test how often each parameter gives a certain result.
      Make sense?
      And you would not use flaps or missiles, and have the same fuel load. And if you're lazy, you can skip the varying speeds part and just do low "holding down S" speeds.
      I simply cannot be fucked. Please do this with a friend of yours who has the time, and send me the video.
      Even still, this is not something I think needs to be demonstrated-I am completely right that turning off AB + using airbrakes will lose speed quicker than just airbraking, and you and I both know that. Common sense. If you want to get down to your best turn performance speed the quickest or prevent a reversal, you can turn off AB as well. In fact, if you are about to overshoot big time, don't just turn off AB, you can go ahead and *lower your thrust* . You even see Mat doing it in this video. DEFYN etc. Because why not?
      Answer me with words please, because I'm not going to sit here and spend hours testing something that can be argued with common sense.
