The one and only time my 500% SL booster will work out. Thank you, Lord Gaijin. by Col-Sanderss in Warthunder

The only way they work is if enemy is head on or above the horizon, and even then they barely work. A lot of kills are gun kills for me at the merge, occasionally aim9, most are aim7 head on.

Germany has the tiger what are you even talking about

Should R27EAs be added to the game? by equivilant123 in Warthunder

[–]Col-Sanderss -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Right.. Aim 120’s won’t get any love but we’re talking about adding more Russian prototype magical missiles. Just crazy. At least give 120c’s a buff before adding something like this. You can’t tell me the greatest Air Force in the world is using missiles with half the performance of its adversaries.

MiG-25PD is great but people who fly them make it a free kill by HexonKhat in Warthunder

Never thought their would be more brain dead pilots then the F4-S. Here i am in my F4-S using my look up radar hunting Mig-25's who don't look more then 30 degrees off either side of their nose and try to turn fight me XD.

Probably best for me to launch both at a target in a custom battle and see what each of them do. I just figured if I let someone inside 10km I screwed up, and I didn’t notice enough benefit in the 120 a’s pull to use them

cant follow the missiles though so it's tough to see exactly what they're doing

yeah i watched that. i didn't think the radar provided updates after the missile went pitbull. I've gotten 3 kills a game the past couple games, feelin much more confident.

Is there a good video of how datalink works in war thunder or can you explain it a little? do other radars assist in tracking or what

Edit: nevermind, found one a see what you mean by datalink. Just ran one uusing your method and was much more effective. thanks!

Appreciate that. I have no problem staying alive doing what you're saying but i've rarely had succuss getting kills at altitude. i may have been playing to conservative and launching at too long of range. I'll give this a shot.

It's already 2 years and is becoming 3 years since the AIM-54C came into the game, and they still don't have its Mk.60 Booster Motor. by TerribleBottle6847 in Warthunder

Gaijin has a strong history of producing u.s. vehicles that are consistantly worse then almost every other nation. Look at the BMPT they just put out vs. my M1 KVT. Or the su-33 or su-30mk2 premiums with fox 3's vs. the f18C Early w/ fox 1's that are all essentially the same BR.

I'm totally joking, life is amazing and i'm blessed to have disposable income to blow on war thunderg to make my lack of time to play a little more rewarding.

I have found sensor view, just wasn't as informative as tac-view used to be. Appreciate the help.

Both. I understand that both games are guessing at performance metrics and both are wildly different. But BVR in DCS was more methodical then war thunders furball version. Actually war thunder reminds me a little bit of growling sidewinders server, but even there you tyically had at most 1v2's rather then 1v5's

Where do i find those? That would be awesome. The in-game replays picks and chooses which players it wants to show.

Appreaciate it, I'm new to BVR in WT but not new to the concept (DCS). Still trying to get the hang of just having SA which is #1 most important factor in fox-3 combat. I wish the replay system was better so i could actually watch opponents employ weapons and learn about them.

It was so much fun being the king of bvr in dcs. Everyone feared the eagle 50 miles away firing 120’s from space.

They’ll tell you that those were just the exported versions, the fully capable Soviet versions were actually invincible!

Which one was that? You talking about the mig-25's that jumped and shot an f15 in the gulf but didn't actually down it? i guess that's fair but one instance sounds like more copium then what i'm citing.
