      it's weird how the sparrow will never track again once the lock is lost on an enemy but it will relock on friendlies. Happened me twice in f-4j and the friendly was even going cold and i turned the radar off right when i saw the radar locking on the friendly. Five seconds after I turned off the radar the sparrow killed the friendly and the enemy destroyed my aircraft while I was getting kicked off the lobby.

    I'm an old F-15 Eagle crew chief and was stoked about the aircraft coming into my favorite game. The performance is good for the F15 but the Aim-7M's are NOT up to the task for a higher or even it's current BR. The reason is that everybody else at it's BR have radar weapons that actually work. Since the Eagle has come out the Aim-7m's only guide 'off the rail' about twice in 10 launches. They don't guide at all once launched. It'd be different if they actually worked but just couldn't connect because they didn't have the 'oomph' at what we call 'end-game' for the missile shot. No TWS for the APG63, that's just non-sensical. The F14 has it in both models and the APG63 was designed with it from the start. Having the Mig23ML I've found that THOSE missiles guide far better than anything I'm carrying on the F15, just because they actually try to guide off the rail and have a chance of hitting anything. This isn't so for the F15 Aim-7M's currently, not at all.

      You're incorrect about it having TWS from the start, but otherwise yeah. Not sure what Seek was on about with it clubbing MiG-23ML's, I've 1v6'd many times in my ML, including in my first ever match with it, against F-15's simply because their missiles all failed and none of mine did.
      And to clarify, the APG-63 didn't have TWS; it had a system vaguely similar to the concept itself but completely different in practice and in layman's terms it was moreso a "multi-track" system than an actual TWS. Even in the PSP upgrade it doesn't have TWS as we know it, though its system would be close enough to simply give it that in-game if it got that radar. But ultimately it wouldn't actually do much for the aircraft in Air RB.

  • @larshassler2277
    @larshassler2277 Před 3 měsíci +30

    I suspect that Gaijin left the F-15A at 12.3 because the superseding 12.7 slot is reserved for the F-15C with AIM-120s, which is likely going to be added next patch. I actually think that's the main reason since the A definitely has 12.7 flight performance already, but there wouldn't be much reason to play it at that rating when the C-model is just a straight upgrade. I'm actually a bit dismayed at this, being a swedish main, since big twin-engine fighters are probably going to supplant the light fighter meta going forward. Lights might be a bit fun and ratty but the advantage of a heavy fighters combination of large missile loadout and good performance is a bigger factor in the end.

      ​@@jonnybgoode7742 I had a wild moment last night where two sparrow shots, launched only 10 seconds between each other, acted wildly different from each other. Lemme ask you which missile you think tracked and hit:
      A) Frontal Aspect PD lock, but target is close to ground and going evase, including attempting to dive into a river ravine.
      B) Frontal Aspect PD lock, target is not low to ground and is higher than targeting aircraft, and isn't going evasive but rather flying traight toward targetting aircraft.
      If you answered B, you're wrong. It was A. Somehow, that missile hit and got the kill, but the easier "B" missile shot not only didn't hit, it didn't even track on what is an optimal radar lock, preferring instead to just drift off in a straight line like it was a dumb fire rocket.
      There is something seriously wrong with how they implemented the AIM-7Ms, because I never have these kinds of issues so often with other AIM-7 variants. Even E2s on the F-4E perform more reliably... _at low altitude._

    I think at the moment the 12.3 BR makes sense for the F-15 any lower and itll curb stomp everything and if it goes to 12.7 itll get ER’d and outcompeted with HMD a lot, until fox 3s are added and maybe later models of F-15s with better armament its fair enough

    My luck with the F-15 is probably bad, I only get uptiers vs entire teams of SU-27s. It's lots of fun if you don't have to deal with dozens of R-27ERs though. AIM-9M helps a lot.

    I have had some luck with the aim7m in the F16 when you are at higher altitude and going really fast. You can fire your aim7m and gravity will really speed up that missile but of course if they are too low then you may have problems actually killing them. That is why I wait for people to start fighting because the radar guidance has less of a chance of team killing than IR missiles because of how the missile is semi-active. To be honest I dont know how you teamkilled that person in the video with the radar missile.

    Imagine a plane (f-15J), that has the 2nd best flight model in the game, and 4 of, *by far* the best IR missiles, along with 4 more *good* radar missiles, being placed at 12.3BR.
    Gaijin balancing... LOL
    Also, the 27ER *cannot* be lofted right now. It cannot be fired via boresight (though it COULD IRL), and once you lock a target and fire on it, the missile will go IOS immediately to intercept it's path. If you fire the missile upwards, it will just burn a bunch of delta-v turning immediately and pitching down to intercept - no loft possible.

      It's even worse with the AIM-7F. You can have a crystal clear radar lock on an enemy that is heading right towards you and it will still choose to chase down your teammate that is flying perpendicular to you for no reason.
      Not to mention all the times that the missile will just refuse to follow the tracking and just heads straight into the ground or into outer space.

    I disagree about the sidegrade, I personally believe it is a downgrade/upgrade depending on ones playstyle. If you play agressively, go into the furball then the f16 wins easily in that perspective, just because you don't have to fuck up your flight direction to point a missile which in most cases gets you killed when you fly fast which is one of the main advantages of the f15 so in furball dogfights it sucks - which is most of the playerbase, fly off runway fight die.
    If you play the f15 in the way you do fly high avoid whatever you can and the focus on cherry picking each enemy, then yes it is superior to the f16 but only under the condition that your team doesn't completely demolish the enemy or the other way around, then you just get stuck with one kill and 40 clicks away from the team. Only really rarely do I see lobbies where the furball ends with even number of players afterwards. Usually it just ends in a 14 vs 2 and then ur either left for dead to the 14 enemy players on to you now or have nothing to do but to speed up to the last enemies in hopes you'll get yourself another kill. - which in the f16 you wouldn't do because the 9ms are just superior in close range even head on to the sparrow sometimes.

    Sadly one of the biggest flaws this game still deals with is the 1.0 BR spread per match. On top of that the base match maker has no balance. I still have yet to see a single person flying a 12+ jet with least a 2/1 K/D ratio. SO many people use things like the F15 and F16 to base bomb. I view anything under a 3 to 1 k/d as bad and try to keep anything I play above least that. The game rewards the bads playing wrong like leaving the F15 at 12.3 and then letting it get all the full down tiers it wants just to bomb more bases. I love playing my Mirage F1 at 11.3 but it is so lame how just about every match is 12 or 12.3 just to let some F15s or F16s have a fighting chance. Where is the balance? Why is it SOOOO important for those players to have such an advantage over others? I like how the video mentions the Mig 23 and F4S a lot. Either all of the Mig 23s above 11 and the F4s need to go up in BR or the Mirage F1s need to go down. At no point in time have they ever been on the same level. Im sorry but im a firm believer that top tier (12+) ruins the game. Dont get me wrong 10.7-11.3 is currently the only BR I really play right now but still has major issues. The company builds everything towards that end of the scale and never the other way around. Balance the game and give everything its place.

    Also I think that if matches were 6v6 or 8v8 then the advantages you get with an f15 over an su27 would matter a bit more. The f15 has no business clapping the cheeks of every late Cold War premium. AIM 9m against 11.3 is not fair at all.
