Spidey209 Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 I have just been practicing 27 vs 29S where I discovered a new missile evasion technique. After practicing Ironhand's head to head missile dodge I was starting twig to the idea that the 2nd AI missile comes in a lot faster and requires a bit more aggressive action to dodge. On one particular pass i had just dodged the first missile and lined up the Mig for a second shot. Pull the trigger then crapmypants when an explosion goes off right in front of my canopy. After double checking my Tacview track I confirmed that my 27ER had just intercepted her 77!!! Awesome!!! no worries about losing lock on the bandit using this technique!!! Cheers!

Vekkinho Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 I bet you can't do that again :P There's like 1/1000000 chance of this to happen, simply put R-77 is too fast for you to track it, however it lattice fins increase it's RCS but I don't believe it's modelled in FC. So U can't really rely on it as on a good old chaff! But, on the other hand you can intercept and destroy subsonic cruise missiles, this works with FC! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Pilotasso Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) Missiles intercepting missiles is not a novelty however its very difficult to replicate it on a regular bases, so when your shot at dont stare any warheads or your gonna get burned in the face :D Edited January 17, 2010 by Pilotasso .
Spidey209 Posted January 17, 2010 Author Posted January 17, 2010 I fully realise that some work needs to be done to polish this technique. <Removes tongue from cheek> p.s. I just double checked, It was my ET vs her 73, heater vs heater.
