Cobra360 Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I was flying a mission in the A-10 and got locked up by a Su-27. A this point the Flanker was still around 50km away. So I broke low just behinde a cliff face, flying 25ft off the deck. At this point the Flanker had dropped to around 900ft and there was deffinatly no way his radar or EOS should be able to see me as he is flying lower than the peak of the mountain and I'm on the other side 20ft above the sea. Next think, I get a launch warning. The Flanker eventually fires a total of 4 R-27Rs and a R-27T while still on the opposite side of the mountain. The missiles fly correct lead pursuit profile and crash into the mountain. The Flanker then fires a R-73 which appears to be tracking me as if the mountain was not there before hitting it. The Flanker then crashes into the mountain trying to close in on me, it was as if the AI could not see it. I did no evasive tactics as I did not need to other than fly as low as possible and hug the cliff face. I'm not sure if this was a old bug that was never fixed as I don't usually fly the Hog down low much.
