R1Lawsy Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 So, just wondering how everyone else does it. In the Mig I barely use the radar - its too slow and now I have a high res monitor i can see targets much easier ;) So I load up with IR missiles and try and sneak up on targets... ive had much more success this way... I'm talking single player as well...
Cik Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 against anything that doesn't have a forward aspect capability: line up on side/rear, come through formation at as close to mach 2 as possible, spray missiles everywhere, achieve kills, repeat against anything that has weak forward aspect capability: as above except beam out and run if they go hot on you. try to surround them with multiship tactics. if you get in, spray missiles and then run. against anything with far superior forward aspect / stealth launch capability: hug dirt, pray they don't see you, climb into belly, ripple heatseekers or more realistically, die.

Frostie Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 The difference is that (assuming your foe has a Gen IV fighter) you're hunting a diver with a spear gun rather than another fish. But a lot of those divers on mp servers have a hair-trigger whilst holding the spear gun at the wrong end. "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 'Red 5'.

Hadwell Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 your prey has bigger teeth than you do, but you still use the same methods, keep yourself hidden and drag them into your missile range.... that's the goal anyway, it doesn't always work...

portman Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 In the Mig I barely use the radar - its too slow and now I have a high res monitor i can see targets much easier ;) The radar in the 21 is not designed to find targets. Back in the days, the GCI officers would find the targets for you and lead you to their tails. That's been the standard soviet cold war tactics. The MiG's radar has only been used for guiding SAR missiles (and measuring distances). Mancher zum Meister sich erklärt, dem nie das Handwerk ward gelehrt!
