Raptor22 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I heard that those were deadly missiles since no one can hear it coming. I always have a hard time locking with those in INFRARED mode... but the radar picks up an enemy fine. Any strategies or tips to using these missiles successfully? Any help appreciated, thanks in advance!

Zayets Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Fly towards the bogey illuminating. You can use thermals within 15-20 km radius. Problem is that these does not make distinction between enemy and friendly. So you will still have to rely on AWACS or radar to identify the bogey. Of course, if you know sure that there is an enemy then fire and go home. [sIGPIC]OK[/sIGPIC]

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance! Just fly straight towards your opponent and type on the chat "Look..I'm radar off..I come in peace..hey, you just please tell me what's your exact angels and heading and I'll continue my marry way.." (looks for a Launch override button)
Laud Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Close in to the bandit with radar and switch to EOS when you are close enough. You can switch modes without loosing the lock. By then you are sure that you have no fiendly locked. He wont get a launch warning this way but he knows he has been tracked so he might be alerted. As written in the posts before: For a pure EOS engagement you have to be sure who you are shooting at! ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Asus ROG STRIX Z390-F Gaming, Intel Core i7 9700k , 32gb Corsair DDR4-3200 Asus RTX 2070 super, Samsung 970 EVO Plus M2, Win10 64bit, Acer XZ321QU (WQHD) TM HOTAS Warthog, SAITEK Rudder Pedals, TIR 5
Raptor22 Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Yea... I get many TKs like this LOL!! Thanks for the heads up guys... although I have another question, does ECM prevent EOS from tracking you? :noexpression: Gigabyte GA-M55SLI S-4 AMD64 X2 4600+ 2.4GHz 2GB DDR2 PC6400 800MHz eVGA GeForce7950GT 512MB Samsung SyncMaster 906BW 19" Widescreen Western Digital Cavier 160GB 7200RPM SATA SoundBlaster Audigy X-Fi Creative MegaWorks 5.1 THX 550 TrackIR 4 Pro MS SideWinder Force Feedback 2 :joystick:
FVMAD Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 does ECM prevent EOS from tracking you? :noexpression: Su-25T got special IR active counter mesures not against tracking but for avoiding IR missiles. And nothing on fighters for that.

Thanks for the heads up guys... although I have another question, does ECM prevent EOS from tracking you? :noexpression: Depends on the ECM you use. The regular ECM on the F-15, Su-27/33 (with pods), MiG-29S, and Su-25 (also with pods) won't protect you - however, the thermal jammer on the Su-25Ts tail might. Edit. Got beaten to it. *grumble... grumble... S-300... grumble* [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Real men fly ground attack :pilotfly: where EVERYTHING wants a piece of you :D
