Santi871 Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Had some spare time and decided to make this. Enjoy. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By_jGRnxUhnUSGNLeGNZS0R1aG8/view?usp=sharing Edit: in the past few days I've updated the guide a few times with corrections, clarifications, a couple screenshots/diagrams and the radar vs EOS addendum, the link I provided will always go to the most recent version Edited October 21, 2015 by Santi871 12
*Rage* Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Nice guide! Great for a beginner. Though I disagree about always having to lure the F15C into WVR. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 64th "Scorpions" Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 195.201.110.22
DarkFire Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Thanks for writing and posting that, I can only imagine how much time and effort that took! :thumbup: The only comment I'd make is that you describe the R-27ER as being sluggish, when it's actually anything but sluggish. It's maximum speed and acceleration values are well above anything the AIM-120 could ever hope to achieve. I've seen an R-27ER top out at over 4,200 Km/h at the point at which the sustain motor burned out. I agree that it has poor terminal performance against targets pulling a lot of G's but it's speed and acceleration are it's main and huge advantages.

DrDetroit Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Great help, thanks for posting. Question; does the ASC disconnect automatically reconnect or I have to hit S again? Thanks again! DrDetroit
DarkFire Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Great help, thanks for posting. Question; does the ASC disconnect automatically reconnect or I have to hit S again? Thanks again! DrDetroit You have to hit S again to manually re-enable it. The system doesn't automatically re-enable.

Though I disagree about always having to lure the F15C into WVR. I have tried other tactics and none seem to work nearly as well. I usually get 3-4 kills per sortie in 104th. Ambushing is the one tactic that is harder to predict.
Frostie Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Great guide, plenty there for new guys to get their teeth into. 1v1 against an F-15 your best chance is making that Flanker live up to its name because there is nothing worse than getting actives in the face, conceal and flank then give that 15 pilot a surprise wedgie face plant for maximum points. :thumbup: "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 51st PVO "BISONS" Fastest MiG pilot in the world - TCR'10 https://100kiap.org
Kayos Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Thanks for the guide. I haven't flown the 27 in a while. Maybe I'll give your guide/27 a spin tonight. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Stuge Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 "Push and hold your stick down slightly before and while disconnecting the ASC"? You must mean pull the stick, right? Anyway, guide looks good, nice start with the wheel brake button function, i'll read thru the rest later :) http://www.104thphoenix.com

Stuge Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Very nice, I would like to add one situation where the use of ER is good: close range head-on shots (~8km). This prevents the target from using flares to spoof the missile, increasing kill probability. Also, revealing your position at this range doesn't give the target enough time to react... http://www.104thphoenix.com
