  • I went into this video expecting nothing but plane, with a flareless 10.0. It actually turned out to be surprisingly pleasant experience, and I had a great time with my 10.0 magic slinger. There's actually a reason to play it now that it got dropped to 10.0, and I'd recommend giving it a shot.

    Flareless jets with good missiles will never get properly balanced. This is the point where realism could be ignored. Give these aircraft countermeasures and it will make experience better for everyone.

      I agree but they should do something like: weaker flares for them, remove the missile warnings or make them harder to see or make IR missiles more flare resistant like in real life. Allowing everyone to press a button to not get hit by a missile doesn't really require skill and giving planes like Ariete a free pass from all missiles means it goes even further up where only skilled players want to play it.

    Well G'day GL,
    This will definitely be a menace at this BR but the CM less issue isn't too bad if you take the SEPR 841 kit & just pull like a crazy person with that ignited (I feel it maybe an effective strategy as I've gotten out of harms way from R-60 like AAM's, I still need more testing to confirm).
    But yes the SEPR 841 kit is rather fun on this & you'll be high & ahead of many with it, It just sucks you don't get more than one R.530, Just the main drawback is no cannon pack but hey when my aim is shit I might as well take the rocket.

    • @GeneralLee2000
      @GeneralLee2000  Місяць тому +2

    The su 22‘s at 10.7 got R60mks, so can you make a video on the german one with 128 flares and worse flight performence or the Italien one with 12 flares and more thrust? I’m asking cause I find them much better with all aspect missiles and a matchmaker where you get many downtiers. (10.7>11.0)

    It's quite nice to fly now, and I'd probably take it over the IIIE since I've flown the shahak quite extensively and prefer the better flight performance. But it also reminds me of the other flareless 10.3s. Facing rare aspect only missiles is manageable in these planes but for some reason everyone thinks the A-10 is an air superiority fighter and 5+ of them are always on the enemy team if you're facing USA..... all these all aspect aircraft with bad flight performance need to go up in br

    • @GeneralLee2000
      @GeneralLee2000  Місяць тому +1

      Personally yes, the magics are very good now. If I had 9Gs instead of 9Ds I'd prefer the Shahak, but the caged seeker can be very limiting on the 9D. Still a very good missile, just a little annoying sometimes.

      If lots of radar missiles, deck hug. If any missile flare anyway. If rear aspect cut afterburner and flare. If high up go perpendicular to the radar missile and chaff until rwr stops. If IR missile from front flare once.

It is all just "the missile" where I need to cut speed, go perpendicular, and dump both chaffe and flares to get rid of it, whatever it is.
