The R-33 should be scary just because of speed, I think the F-14 missed with AIM-54 perhaps because the aircraft they were shooting at decided there were F-14's out there and got out of the way they almost certainly killed VVS and Iraqi Mig-23's in the Iran Iraq war. In Lock On 1.02 I made a scenario where four undefended and loaded B-1B's tried to fly through four Mig-31's only R-40's and cannons did any damage. Better yet a Mig-25 will take out a Mig-31 every time?! My point is the problem isn't necesarily the HOJ feature but the Mig-31/R-33 which has never been givin the attention I felt it deserved(at least now the R-33 has a model and texture).
