davidp57 Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 I'm not sure if this is normal (I think not) but here's a Tacview of me trying to shoot a Sidewinder in the sky (15° above horizon, no lock tone) while a friendly harrier is below me, coming at me at my left side. When the missile launches, it steers a hard 90° left turn, immediately follows with a right S and kills my unsuspecting wingie. I didn't know our Sidewinders could do this ; can they ? Or do they need a bit of nerfing ?who-needs-aim9x-when-they-have-a-harrier.zip.acmi.zip Zip - VEAF :pilotfly: If you want to learn, talk and fly with french-speaking friends, the Virtual European Air Force is here for you !

al531246 Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 It's quite a remarkable kill I'll give you that. The AIM-9M pulls about 21G max in that engagement. I don't know what the IRL max G of an AIM-9M is but I'd suspect it's higher than 21? Intel i5-8600k | EVGA RTX 3070 | Windows 10 | 32GB RAM @3600 MHz | 500 GB Samsung 850 SSD
