Lazer been real quiet since this dropped
So true
Its still one of the top dawgs at dogfighting. The Raiju is the best PVP Vehicle in the game besides the Avenger.
I know. Ain’t it great? 😆
@@morganyu812starling
@@pieceofvermin it would be but currently it's immune to Minigun damage
Another thing I think is useful to know: if you want to land as quickly as possible, just point at the ground at full speed and, when you’re two or three airplane lengths to the ground, use vtol mode and pull up at the last moment. You’ll be inches to the ground and almost stationary.
You could probably go straight down and just rapidly pull up and the jet does a cobra to flatten out haha
@@GhillieMaster yes its a cool trick. Was surprised you didnt mention it in the video. Great content none the less
@@Sashok420 He also didn't mention how stealth works in that jet.
Yeah used to do it in the hydra years ago
@@GhillieMaster May you do a video about new smg vs ap pistol?
Me and my friends usually hide in stealth mode and wait for low level players to start selling their businesses, then we do everything we can to defend them from griefers. So far we have a 100% success rate which is awesome!
Real gang shit
Doing gods work
Until they meet a fully loaded ruiner 🚀 🔥
You dropped this... 🎖
I'm a level 260. I do this exact same thing for other players in my lobbies that I'm in. I was griefed by so many high rank players when I was thier level. I want to be the exception, not the rule. I'm trying to find a crew that does this exact thing so if y'all have any suggestions please let me know
The bullet damage bug in this plane is exactly what I'd like to have as a feature for aircrafts in general against PvE enemies. Makes them so much more viable when you don't get disabled from just a couple of engagements because the AI has not only god-tier accuracy but also keep said accuracy over the entire freaking range of their guns. I'll definitely enjoy the Raiju a lot in PvE while I can now that I know of this bug.
Agreed. Its going to comie in handy for some "wipe the gang out" agency missions too.
I absolutely HATE The Insane Accuracy on the Enemies AI! It's Fucking Infuriating!!! 🙃🙃🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
It's not a bug with bullets
NO! Maybe you are not on the same system-I'm on PC . I guantee you there is no bug. I do HeadHunter to try to get my skills up with jets (BTW,I love this jet much better than my Hydra or Lazer-but keep in mind I am beginner level with jets. Even though I am close to level 800). I am lucky to get thru HH without resorting to missiles. The weak cops and weak heli cops bullets put me down. Less often,now that I practice.
FACTS...enjoy it while it lasts🎉
3:49 the true stealth jet, your enemies won’t even know what hit them
I was about to write the same thing, beat me to it lol
They put suppressors on it
This is why I’m in bad sport once a month 😂😂 I can’t resist
It's loud though. Still fun to fight against.
"Immune to bullet damage"
Holy crap, this explains why I battled one non-stop for 30 minutes in my Starling. The enemy griefer was terrible with it, but no matter how many good clean shots I got on him, he would never even start smoking. I thought they nerfed the damage of non-explosive airplane cannons because of this. Thank you for clarifying. As for the jet griefer - he never got me, and eventually crashed into a hill while trying to outmaneuver me somehow lol
The bullet damage bug is only for the body of the plane you can destroy them with (starling) MGs in 5-10 seconds if you just roast the nose, which you should be doing anyway in hopes for a pilot kill.
@@TheCnicus in normal circumstances, you should aim for the body of an aircraft, because you’ll land more shots and your aim should go from tail to nose. However, if you wanted to be efficient and did dives, hitting the pilot would be the way to go. But for dogfighting, aim for the body and keep it on the HUD. Aim for the Flaps and engine.
@@jeaton1224 if your aircraft has Mgs and you aren't good at hitting pilots directly this is very true. However the only way you can destroy a Raiju with MGs from Starling/Pyro/Seabreeze etc is to shoot at the weak spot on the nose, which also might get you a pilot snipe too if you're accurate or a bit lucky.
@@TheCnicus that is tire. I was talking about other aircraft against the MG’s. Although the Checkmate’s engine will stall eventually if you hit the body even a little bit, and could give you the edge.
Thing with the raiju in a dogfight, the turning rate doesnt change if you slow down. So you can make much tighter turns if you unthrottle in a dogfight
Keeping pressure with homing missiles to prevent slow down or vtol works well
It does slow it down just not enough to where it matters in a dogfight. It's much like the b11 where it takes forever and if you aren't patient u end up just shutting it off but it's butter point is right before their
Yeo does anyone know if u can still buy gta+?
@@Sweetness_01 im still going to stay behind you even if you try that
@@sushi_awards4793 I don't do circles, I use realistic tactics to take down other players
Important note, but the armor bug is not unique to the the raiju. It exists for literally every vehicle in the game, but is strangely more common with the Avenger.
It's probably just most noticeable on the avenger since that's an aircraft that's supposed to survive several missiles
I wouldn't believe its necessarily on the Avenger as well, it's noticeable on the Raiju thanks to it lacking, well, armor
the Avenger is nigh bulletproof as is thanks to its Insurgent level durability. You can crash into the ground at top speed and merely go thonk
you can absorb tank shells to the face
The Avenger is super tough
*or it should be if it doesn't randomly explode in a single rocket*
what do you mean it definitely doesnt exist for the laser or hydra
@@alon403 it absolutely does. Literally every vehicle, even a nightshark.
110% correct
Kinda unfortunate that you never showed the Raiju‘s most powerful weapon in a dogfight.
Its enormous speed combined with its toggleable stealth allows you to simply fly away upon first contact with your enemy at the speed of a missile until they loose sight of you before coming around for a pass with your machine gun. Doing that a few times basically ensures a kill.
It’s essentially the first the first aircraft in GTAO that can effectively utilise interceptor style doctrine rather than fighter style doctrine.
Yea but that playstyle is toxic and reminiscent of pre-nerf passive popping with lazers why promote something terrible for the health of freemode. We should be encouraging new players/Raiju pilots to learn proper dogfighting instead of fearing every merge and playing like a snake which ultimately just slows the game down and kills the fun for everyone else.
Hence why even though it's kind of an F-35, it behaves more like an F-22
@@TheCnicusSpeak for yourself, I love griefing lobbies.
Yes. The most OP vehicle in the game
I used it to hunt other Raiju in stealth mode. You can see their lights flashing even though they’re in stealth mode, so it’s still easy to find them and kill them if they can’t find your lights flashing first.
Feels nostalgic in a way when ghillie makes a in depth guide series for a pvp aircraft that contributes in the meta change, I remember watching his starling and b11 in depth guides and they feel like many years ago
Well, because it has indeed been many years. The B-11 is from Summer 2018, and the Smuggler planes are from 2017.
Too bad the game is killing itself
@@fupoflapo2386it’s been doing that for like 5+ years, I think it’s hysterical seeing how many people came back just to fly this plane as if it’s something worthy of taking a year of development time from a billion dollar studio
@@Youllpayforthat that's why I haven't played the game for a year and a half.
I feel like Ghillie as an Og player remembers the Eject kill era of gta when you could use jets and other weaponised vehicles in passive, I think that the Raiju could and most likely will "reincarnate" the eject kill era, especially as it has the stealth feature, and after ejecting the Raiju goes fairly straight before starting to spin around just like the hydra works (main vehicle used in the eject kill era) unlike the lazer starting to spin nearly immediately. I've already gotten a few eject kills as they are extremely funny to get in my opinion.
Dude, I kind of miss going for ejects, I'm definitely going to start doing it with the raiju now
@@hummerguy Yea it can be kind of weird first but it's extremely easy as the jet is really fast and can easily catch up to other jets/planes and even if you miss the plane doesn't get destroyed when hitting the ground like Ghillie explained and showed in the video.
You still can. I send my Duke O' Death smashing into passive n non-passive players for dirty kills all the time😂
@@Italkmadshitlol of course you can still get eject kills on people on ground fairly easily but there isn't much you can do against a jet or another vehicle while in passive, well of course you can use the besra or helicopters but it's a bit harder as the besra and most helicopters are slower than a lazer or hydra I think.
@@Kehtune I just stand there and watch em crash and die usually lol
The raiju seems to have exceptionally high terrain damage resistance which is why it could survive that fall from the sky limit
Yeah most air vehicles are weak as shit and explode the second they hit the smallest thing. Raiju is almost as tough as B11
@@BigGreen945 Well it is nice to finally not get the bs wanted star for jumping out and aircraft blowing up. :D
i smashed into a wall with it, nose got bent yet it wasnt even smoking
Absolutely demolished my 9 million savings but there’s nothing I’d really rather spend my money on honestly
i’ve saved up 37 mil but i’ve basically got nothing i want to buy
I think the bullet and fall damage will stay in the game, similar to the bulletproof window on the Half-Track, everyone thought that was a bug but it’s stayed in the game ever since the release
knowing rockstar the silent bullets are here to stay too
lazy coding innit
5:23 The starling take off is amazing I swear hahahahaha
Another thing is, after this jet has been added I've been combat merged far fewer times than before the update. Since lazers and hydras always die, but the raiju has a chance to survive a combat merge with its armor.
The nerf to Hydra and Laser explosive MG’s helps your survival time a TON. Unless they ram you before you can ditch into that rate fight.
Merges are a much more satisfying way of dogfighting now because of the nerf on the jets, now you need a decent skill set and a bit of luck to win fights with the Lazer and Hydra.
And if I'm not mistaken the B11 is the new king of merges now because of the extra + missile barrage
@@pedinhu18 can confirm. I've only been able to shake good B11 pilots with VTOL maneuvers so far.
@@pedinhu18 The problem is that as far as I've seen fighting B-11s once you hit their tail which is one of their most visible weak spots thus easiest to hit it becomes unflyable
@@pedinhu18 oh the A-10 shoots 8 barrage missiles now instead of 7? I had no clue. I have noticed merges last longer in general, until a random hits you with “I can’t fly” rounds.
as a person who has been dogfighting since 2013 it’s very nice to see it start picking back up. The hydra has always been my go to bc of vtol which is super effective against really everything but lazers.. but like you said a proper pilot who utilizes vtol effectively with the raiju is untouchable. It’s such a hard skill to learn but so rewarding when done correctly.
You definitely have not been dog fighting since 2013😂
Gta online has been release in October 2013. Nobody was dogfighting back then. So stop capping
@@youngmetro3times849 uh what? You do realize you can get a free Lazer from the base back in 2013. Such an L comment lol. If you’re upset that there’s better players than you then just say so
@@ThanosGT500 yea but nobody was doing that back then. Because dog fighting npcs doesn’t count😂
@@youngmetro3times849 literally everybody was doing it. 💀💀💀
@@youngmetro3times849Of course people were dog foghting in 2013 lmao
This video was great!! I'm particularly interested in all the movements it brings to the table with VTO mode - It's so good! Everything about it makes it the perfect vehicle to move, fight and don't be bothered by anyone, I actually use it as my personal car now
Lands easily, takes off immediately, increibly fast, stealth mode, more durable... and let's be honest, it looks sick 11/10
Nice video, I would also add the fact you can just go to stealth to downgrade wanted stars to only 2, even if you had 5, no choppers after you
stealth mode is such a fun mechanic mainly for casino heist preps with such fast jet
It's OP
Stealth mode / off radar shouldn’t be in this game
@@mbtenjoyer9487why ?
@@derboy2083because it's OP
@morganyu812 and where is the problem
The bit about invisible bullets coming from hostile jets is super interesting, and good to know. Another thing that I've noticed that can catch you is the inability to get out of the jet when badly damaged. Not sure if it's exclusive to this jet. There have been a few a few times where I've won dogfights but died because I couldn't eject when my burning jet finally went down 😅
Been waiting on this ! I just love the stealth mode ! Flying up on people out of nowhere feeling like maverick lol
Thanks for all that work, Ghillie!
Nice job with comprehensive coverage!
I've been having a really easy time beating Raiju pilots with the B-11. In fact, it's become my new go-to when I want to take one down.
B-11 was my go to before the raiju. I find them incredibly easy to take out now with the raiju now. Come in from above in stealth mode and strafe with the mg’s. If I miss I just pop back into stealth mode and fly away until they forget about me and then come back and do the same thing
I use Raiju to beat Raiju :P
@@jadenhalstead7290 I tend to stick high with the B11. Easy to see the Raiju coming that way and start turning to get behind it. As they come zooming by on the merge, I can turn much quicker and get on their tail. They then almost always go stealth.
However, going stealth is fine, but if you know to use the camera it doesn't make that much difference.
Having said all that, I don't think I've come across a really decent pilot yet.
@@alexk2967 yea as long as you stay high with a b-11 and are on the lookout for raiju you will be able to see them coming and engage pretty easy. Only problem is then you’re kind of stuck at high altitude and and can’t do anything on the ground
@@alexk2967 Are you old gen xbox? Would you like to do b11 vs f-16 I can fill that gap you’re missing for a good player to fight
With this Jet being so good I really hope ground to air AA like the aa turret get a few buffs
It'd be sick for the AA turret to have a lock-on jammer so it can actually be used, or maybe even a trophy system where looking at a rocket for a second marks it to be countered, since they have the aim ability to do it and bullets do interact with rockets iirc
They do. If you're lucky you can shoot someone's rpg mid flight
The best raiju guide, you mentionned everything I saw/wondered with the raiju
Thanks for this video! As always you make the best content about the aircrafts in GTA and it's not close. I hope you get a chance to to a video like you always have around Acceleration, pitch, yaw and general maneuverability.
I think stealth mode may be bugged in some way, because I think since the Drug Wars update I have had a problem where I would activate stealth mode on the Akula and it would put away the weapons, but not put me in stealth mode. I would end up having to re-activate stealth mode a couple of times for it to actually take effect.
yeah I noticed that too
A way how to tell your in stealth mode is to look at your player icon on the map. If its flashing it means your in stealth mode.
Kind of a shitty thing but what I do to avoid that completely is when I leave the hangar or get in it I wait for the weapons bay to open and then I activate stealth or else it just takes you out of stealth regardless
This is definitely a bug with stealth aircraft
Old bug. You go stealth mode and then wait for the weapons to pop back out in a minute and then when you go stealth mode the cross hair will disappear and the map icon will blink
I’d say it’s one of the best ease of access aircraft so far. Aside from the sparrow which you can call in basically anywhere and it goes like 165+ mph, I’ve been loving using the raiju so far
I love this jet thank you for this guide ghillie
I love how it works now with ejection and not blowing up on impact sometimes I accidentally eject if I bump the controller unintentionally this is like a second chance feature it’s really good
3:58 the jet is based on an f35 with f22 wings. Both are stealth fighters but the f35 is the vtol one. Both planes have gau turrets in the intake vents on either side of the fuselage. So as for immersion breaking; it’s quite the opposite
If the cannons were supposed to be silent, why do you hear the cannons as the pilot?
I haven't even watched the whole video but from my testing and just common sense. The Raiju is the 2nd most OP vehicle in the game!! Thanks Cock*!
Lol
Thanks Ghillie for this info i was waiting for this video to know if I should buy one and now I know is a must buy 😃
Excellent guide 👍 Thank you Ghillie
The avenger has been my go for fun when I don't want to use jets. Especially the missiles and cannons have been a fun change to air/air/ground fights
Most OP vehicle
Against the oppressor mk2 your best bet is making yourself vulnerable and let them waste their missiles, once their out their vulnerable and you have your opening to attack, they usually run and when they do fire a missile to bait their circle dodge and halfway through send your second, if they turn out of the circle normally they get slammed by the second
Man beyond this bein a actual dissection of the Raiju. You get my like for AC7’s Danger Zone bein the BGM
Love the Ace Combat music, very fitting!
3:41 Figured as much. Had a guy shooting at me when I was in my B11 and didn't know he was shooting at me until I seen the damage magically appear on my plane. Fortunately for me though, he wasn't very good at dogfighting and died shortly after I had noticed.
I liked the Raiju for about 15 minutes before it disappeared due to the bunker glitch
I reported on Wednesday which is the day that I lost the jet
I have had such a blast with this craft I can’t even begin to explain, it makes me so happy to fly again without oppressor grief bringers and General oppressor spam, plus for me, this aircraft I just love since it’s inspired by the f35B made jointly between the us and uk with the vtol systems being jointly designed. outside of that I find it great for surprising oppressor grievers in boom and zoom type tactics, especially if you miss and you have a friend following you not too far behind to follow up. hell even did a bunch of that vtol tricks in dog fights and honestly I barely died, only being effed up by some lucky explosive snipers a couple times
i just love flying and stunting in this thing. the maneuvers you can do with it are insanely fun!
This jet is a monster
A Goblin!
@@morganyu812 a BEAST
A goblin monster.
the air to ground with the Raiju is actually insane if used correctly, if your in the city then there is a whole lot of cover with all the buildings which you can use to your advantage so the person your fighting can’t hit you with a rocket or rail gun. Just get close to a building so it is hard to hit you then prefire with the MG so they rag doll and finish them off with a missile (this should be done in VTOL mode), uversuspro explains it better in his video about the raiju. if you’re in an open area with the raiju such as sandy shores or the air port, then what you should do is gain a reasonable amount of altitude in normal mode then you kinda need to do a backflip with it and switch to VTOL mode, this will make the jet way slower and you have way more control then just locate your target and shoot them with a missile, it is really affective and way better explanation is on UVP’s channel so you can see how it works and what it looks like
Then some Chad lobs a cruise missiles up your bum when you're trying to pop ground based players lol
Hey I was trying to tell him
im really glad you put ace combat ost in this video, fits the whole theme
The Raiju falling out of the sky by itself and taking 0 damage is so amazing. Got into a dogfight with a modder the other day without realizing he was a modder until I was laying into his jet with the cannons for a solid minute of contact. Just pressed F when I felt like there was no point in fighting anymore and skydived all the way down. Was expecting MMI claim but it never showed up, I check the map and there's my jet, almost all the way back at the airport 😂 (also i found against mk2 just fly in a circle with a slight downward spiral, you'll outrun all the missiles. When the mk2 runs out, VTOL and turn on it)
2:23 an internet relative of mine has a theory that it clips through the ground outside of your vision range and respawns on the ground when reaching the bottom of the world
That would make sense, hence the instant rotation it aircraft had, as well as it being on a marked path/road
3:51 maybe the F-35 is just automatically equipped with sub-sonic stealth rounds as well as a muzzle brake or suppressor 😂
I also noticed when flying full speed going into vtol mode you slow down by A LOT so that's helpful making landings
Thanks Ghillie very informative!
i love the in-depth guide to this jet, this jet reminds me of the ace combat northern wings jet, exclusive to the final mission, and the design of that jet is exactly like that raiju, its a mix of a F-35B lightning and the YF-23 Blackwidow and i love both the f35 and yf23 and the trailer of the jet is shown in black which is a nod to the yf-23 as theres 2 made in the world, white and black as theyre prototypes and made to be faster than a raptor but not fast as the f-15 eagle (depends on the variants) anyways, i rather like to nick name this jet the YF-35B Black Lightning ii or (Dark Matter)
cool
I'm pretty sure that the Raiju is made as a STEALTH FIGHTER. Meaning it's not really a bug but more a design choice.
The Raiju can use a stealth mode, which makes you disappear from the radar, and is great for a speedy escape. I can see this as the lazer-killer.
It’s the everything killer lmao. It’s a shame too since if you’re even somewhat competent with the VTOL then nothing puts up a fight against it.
Thr video I've been waiting for!
The Ace Combat Danger Zone remix was a fantastic decision in the editing. Love it!
If you add the glitched livery, then set the colors accordingly, you can create the su57 felon color scheme. Looks really good.
Exactly what I did the second I started customizing it lol
My best counter has been ground-to-air with a Mk2 + Explosive Rounds. The Raiju's strafe isn't as effective as the LAZER's and the lock-on missile speed is too slow to catch the Mk2. I won a 5v1 (Raijus vs Mk2) by downing 1 pilot, then dominating him ground-to-ground to carefully bait the other 4 out of stealth. Soon, they were down and I was up! ;)
no explosive jet cannons strafe is effective now 💀lmfao they are just sitting ducks for explosive rounds now
This video reminded me how good the Ace Combat remix of Danger Zone is, thank you Ghillie
I heard the AC7 danger zone remix in the background, epic song choice ghillie
Ace combat has so many banger soundtracks across all the games
i wish savage had the same bullet resistance as raiju, i feel really pissed off when an npc helicopter makes my savage smoke just because that .22 that is fired from that shtty police rifle can actually damage a huge cold war ussr helicopter
One thing you didn't mention but could be huge in pvp is using the stealth mode to approach someone from behind and get a first strike off. With the speed and being off the radar I can see this being a griefers best friend for taking out people doing sales, or in PvP just sneaking up on someone.
Delete this rn
Yeah I told him that😂. This jet is freaking Nuts. You might need to delete this comment 😅
@@morganyu812 it's common sense been a thing since akula
Yeah I can see that happening but if they abuse it too much it’s gonna get nerfed lol
rockstar basically implemented irl stealth into the pvp with the raiju lol
i dont even play GTAO anymore quit years ago but i watch your vids to be up to date on gta stuff 👍👍👍
Woooff 57k view. Nice ghillie! Thanks for the video!!
One way you can try to take out MK2s with the Raiju is to get really close behind them and pop out of stealth mode and launch your missiles and hit them before they have time to react and dodge them. It's a little tricky and it's not very repeatable but it can work.
I dont think its overpowered but time will tell...they did good with the balancing imo
It's definitely OP
i mean, if they fix the bugs it's OP, but with the bugs its absurdly broken
I was in a lobby yesterday and i kid u not me and like 6 other random players were all using this jet, this thing is awesome
I was waiting since the raiju came out for your guide.
#acecombatmusic
I actually disagree Ghillie. The Raiju is one of the easiest Jets to kill ground targerts. Did you forget that you can go off the Radar at any time? You can pop in on someone get off Radar kill them then put it back on. This Jet is NUTS!!!
Still doesn’t make it any easier to hit ground targets with it though
@@GhillieMasterActually it does. It doesn't have the same limitations as the Akula because it can easily outrun missiles and it's immune to small arms weapons fire.
Also have you seen UversusPro's video on this yet? He basically said the same thing that I noticed with this thing. You can use vtol mode upside down and tilt the nose in a down to kill enemies directly below you with ease if tilt the tail slightly up towards the sky
@@morganyu812 Those things you don’t have to worry about in jets anyways for PVP against on foot targets. The Railgun and e rounds will make quick work of it.
@@GhillieMasterorry I edited that last comment because I accidentally hit send prematurely..... But I think you need to start a battle with your friend and try it out. You usually know more than me so I might be a little off. But one thing is for sure is that ...
With Raiju you have the element of surprise....if you pop up on someone off the radar you can easily kill them before they notice you. One shot from the guns ragdoll the enemy. Especially harder to track when in the city. Or at night.
@@morganyu812 Even in stealth mode though the jet makes a much louder sound than a helicopter does. So it’ll be harder to sneak up on people. Not saying it’s impossible. But I don’t see the jet lasting very long if someone has the Railgun or E Rounds
This, this is what I've been waiting for.
Good video Mr Ghillie.
Big fan of the Ace Combat Danger Zone remix being included. Thumbs up for that alone.
The top gun music is very fitting for showcasing this fight
Love your videos bro!
As a newer player, this is sick!
I knew the raiju was advanced, but being impervious to bullets and adding stealth bullets was really what sold me
Ah, glorious powercreep. This explained some things that I was unsure about when fighting them. This video also confirmed that the one guy I did fight with a Raiju was indeed cheating. He took somewhere in the realm of 15 explosive sniper shots and suffered no damage, which under normal conditions is impossible. Really wish you would have discussed stealth more, since that is the most interesting feature.
16:02 Woah that was a pretty slick transition with using the Hangar door opening to cut right into the next clip!🤯😎
Also, wow the new jet sounds like it has a much bugs, oh I mean "features" as the new update itself has!😂
But yeah, whilst I haven't bought one for myself (yet), I did enjoy piloting the new jet on that new mission, well up until the part where you spend an hour trying to take down two Avengers...😫 granted their are some strats to make it easier, and the new missions overall are way better when playing with others, compared to trying to go through them all solo like I did at first!
only a bug when it annoys you, always a feature if it can help you
Awesome Guide!👍
doing the "VTOL divebomb" is definitely the best way to fight anything that isn't another jet, you get a lot of time to shoot them with the MGs, and they can hardly ever do anything back.
Isso é bem parecido com a forma como você usa o scramjet, rsrs.
This is a very similar way you use the scramjet rsrs.
A couple of other things I’ve noticed about the Raiju:
- The rear of the plane seems to resemble the Su-75 with its tail and engine positioning, more than the YF-23 even though I’ve seen a lot of people say it looks like it. However the tail has a built in rudder whereas the YF-23 & Su-75 control pitch and yaw with the same ailerons.
- The missile model is the regular RPG when it is shot, even though the missiles in the weapons bay are AMRAAMS (I’m guessing).
- The jet also has bombs in the internal bay, but they cannot be used whatsoever.
I noticed the bombs too.
I was so annoyed they used the R-77-M FOX-3 (Fire and Forget, Long Range Active Radar Missiles) bay for the FOX-2 (heatseekers). They SHOULD be on the side. And you are correct, it appears to be based on the SU-75 Checkmate, but I am not sure if the Checkmate has VTOL or STOL IRL.
raiju is really fun to use, only thing to beware of is if you land too hard your landing gear flies off. I was flying in formation and did a quick land-takeoff thing because it was cool and my landing gear flew off and hit my friend in another raiju, it got under his plane and knocked him into a nearby hangar and killed hkm.
Nice video Ghillie
For those trying to get the Raiju in the LSA mission, before blowing up the AA turret, shot the green frame of the rocket pods beside it so it doesn't EVISCERATE the Raiju
Nice review, but would have been nice if you had included you pitch and yaw test to compare to other planes, like previously :)
I met a group of players last night all running around with thermal in the new jet, very fun
me and a friend that isn't good with jets decided to do a headhunter with the Raiju and we did it in under 2 minutes! This jet is crazy good lol
best guide on youtube by far
Hydra hover mode speed trick will still completely gap this jet over time in a straight line but due to how long it takes to land a hydra in comparison to the raiju, in a practical test taking takeoff/landing into consideration, in a test going from the cluckin bell business battle to the del perro nightclub both hydra and raiju ended up landing pretty much at the same time
The ad is very creative!
No a big jet person at all but man do i love this jet. Easily replaces my pyro for just speeding to different areas quickly especially back to sell vehicles
If you are in regular flight and lower ur wheels it slows down a bit, great for dogfights and etc
Hey ghillie, you might've missed the broken collision box on the tail section of the Raiju, you should check it out, even missiles can hit it
The Raiju is literally just the hydra if it snorted a line of coke, which I love, it's a masterpiece and an amazing take on one of my favorite jets, which I always use for literally anything being the hydra, not to mention it's the perfect jet for skilled pilots to really shine
I love this jet for the fact that it looks good and performs really well… although that price tag had me cough up a kidney
Thanks for the guide!
Are you going to do an analysis of the Tactical SMG?
Yep! Planning on having that out tomorrow
The 2 upsides of the Hydra Vtol, Faster switch to Vtol/jet mode, speed glitch still works
One thing you gotta try: cut the engine and use the left and right bumpers to float around silently, kind of like flying arena cars!
That ace combat danger zone remix hits the nail on the head
