The r 60 has a tiny warhead. Ive had no trouble killing M2000cs with r3rs and r13ms.

Or is he referring to the CAS pipper which is MIA?

'80s servers such as Blue Flag would be ideal.

In the presence of aim-120 and r-77 you have to stay low and use terrain masking. The "knights of the sky" High altitude approach will just turn you into an AMRAAM catcher's mitt. Take the MiGs approach and ambush from terrain.

I agree, in fact the mirage, viggen and f5e will all fit in, i think. The f5e will be a good blue counterpart to the mig 21bis

What he said

Seeker and maneuverability wise you are absolutely right, but I've had too many aircraft limp away after just being "winged" by an r60.

Because the r60 is great for tickling fighters or scratching their itches... the r13 is better at actually killing them.

I couldnt say it better

I think the grom was a great inclusion because its as quirky and analog as the 21bis.

When I was little it was a die cast metal Viggen that started my interest in aviation. I cant wait to get my hands on this!

The jamming pod doesn't work. If you cant put an AMRAAM into a mountain you arent going to shake it. The '21 really doesnt stack up against 4th gen fighters.

I think it's an AN-2... its' advanced propulsion features are its' ability to fly in reverse in a stiff wind, and a drunk Eastern European with a pencil and a legal pad can do some mighty fine terrain mapping

M-2000c will eat an amraam long before a dogfight starts

Here it is

The thing that stuck out the most in the USAF '78 manual to me was the lack of rwr. I think the F5e would work well in "Blue Flag" style mp scenarios as a local defense/quick reaction fighter like the 21bis is in the current Blue Flag.

Manual was from '78

Wing tips only, and no mention of aim9m just up to j

This is still an issue. Air leaks away leaving none to activate the chute upon landing, even when returning the gear level to neutral after take off.

Same.

Belsimtek is working on the f-5E, and the new model is in 1.5.

Try using the horizontal range marker below the pipper with the grom. They tend to land short if you dont.
