First one just ate a chaff. Mirage panic release is 3 flare, 6 chaff.

Second one, I never see the missile after its launch. Did it go into the ground or something?

Last night several of us fired off multiple -120s and only got one or two hits.

 

ETA: I should say tho that maybe it's due to the type of AI, server, or who knows what... they were AI Su-27s. Earlier today I was testing a mission of mine with six launched Silkworm missiles and got 5 -120 kills (1 9X). So they worked in that instance.

I Have been having very poor luck with 120s tracking lately even well inside the "kill" zone. I fly AA all the time and never had as much problems as ive had with them in the last OB

I'm just wondering if anyone provided a answer to this problem I have been having the same problem with getting a lock on aircraft with the 120's thought it was something I was doing wrong during start up or something like that

120C prone to chasing chaffs right now IF supported with good maneuvering. Wasted 2 120C's in 6 miles head on against Su-27 in MP. I was quite surprised with that.

Missiles fired with a steering dot right in the middle, go for a lag pursuit and notch themselves

Both shots are within NEZ and their guidance completely screws them over

 

 

I just see them being notched. 1st clip, perfect notch really, and they get fed some chaff. 2nd clip, they track until again, notched at the end and they go for the juicy chaff's.

Too me thats just the ABC of defeating radar guided missiles.

 

So if anything, they are just easier to notch now maybe, and that is what being experienced? If this is accurate or not, who knows. I prefer it that way, cause flawless missiles are boring, and this way you have to consider your shots.

Did you not read what I said ?

 

Why did they get notched and ate chaff ? Because of the guidance.....

 

Instead of doing an lead pursuit and not having to deal with chaff/notch, they go lag pursuit from the rail, which is not what is supposed to happen....

 

This was introduced with the tweaked AIM-120 guidance, so they don't pull massive Gs when the bandit is turning.

 

Why even use the steering dot if the missile is just going to turn and lag its self out into a notch/ best chaffing position.

 

These missiles should have went for a lead pursuit and would have never had been in a position to get chaffed/notched. The problem is not them being notched/chaffed

 

There have been other tacview videos out there, you don't even have to chaff, just turn slightly perpendicular to the missile and it will trash its own self. Some people don't even know they've been fired on and they defeat the missile, because it decided to do a lag pursuit.

 

You can clearly see the behavior I am describing in the first clip. My aircraft is pointing directly at the steering dot , missile should be headed the same direction, the shortest path, instead it turns for no reason and goes into lag pursuit and gets notched once even before he chaffs
