Just thanks for not creating the n-th semi funny meme video on YT but putting actual info in. Well done. I prefer the J10 in sim because the teams are so unbalanced in favor of Blue that any weakness of a plane gets kinda amplified, but I've always loved the Flankers dearly still.
Obviously you can't do the double launch to trick people, however they're great for those top down rear aspect launches with radar off from range. Try keeping your radar in HMD for most of the game and only lock when you want to go for an ER launch, the less RWR warnings you give the better you can sneak up on people
@@MiGanFox3 The radar although helpful to find enemy’s does not need to be active all the time. And after watching your clip on positioning I’ve started to implement a couple of the tips and tricks you provided and it’s worked good for me thus far. The stock grind hasn’t been as painful as before 😂
i wish my brain could comprehend notching at perfect angles that first vietnam game was quite impressive piecing all the moves together in your favour good stuff
The 5F was my favourite jet before the J-10, and I still think it's better than the SU27. The mirage is much more forgiving thanks to the airframe, the margin of error in those close range scenarios isn't as big with the 5F
R-77 is one of few strengths is that you can launch it get to nothing unstantly. If youre launching it fast enough, it can hit a target 60 or 75 degrees to your nose neearly 4-5km away. Im always pushing enemy team as much as I can and launch only after enemy missiles go active on me. Thats the only way to get R77 somewhat reliable in BVR. And when you that close 7-13km, r73s are also becoming a good option. Sometimes im getting my kills by r73s and r27ets even through im flying just below the contrails. I just never felt that launching R77 is my best option. Sometimes its better to fire ET, then telling all of them that im there
Absolutely, the ET is incredible weapon at top tier for the unsuspecting If you don't already try the double launch trick, if you have someone who knows you're there, but they might be already close to a notch. I'll often fire an R-77 first and then an ET, a lot of people will just tunnel vision on the RWR warnings and not realise an IR is coming, thanks to the individual flare and chaff binds a lot of people won't think to flare just in case
Yeah I know, I don't really bother with HMS IR, I can usually get the IR lock regardless. If I'm doing the double launch 77 + ET trick obviously I need to hard lock them. All depends on the situation The F-16 about 3 minutes in I was locking considering launching a 77, but I changed my mind given he was rear aspect at pretty close range I figured he'd struggle to flare it. Same with the Flanker shortly after, he already knew I was coming in so I wanted the option of launching 77 if he flared the ET depending on his aspect Guy at 10:20 I'm obviously doing the double launch
No worries, the Italian MiG-29 is essentially the same as the Russian & German variants. The R-27ERs are extremely strong but after they're gone you're quite vulnerable in the up tiers
ppl commenting this is such a milestone in a youtuber's career note for migan if you see this, don't take into account opinions like these if not overwhelmingly common
Hard to say for certain so far, you'll usually have some of the new F-15s on both teams and they end up trading with each other. In the hands of someone who knows what they're doing you theoretically can't touch it with a Flanker, but that's only if they keep you at range and at range fox-3s are super easy to defeat anyway so it's more of a stalemate in my eyes Realistically most players are going to take their max range launches and rtb (I've already killed a few F-15Es either running away or on the runway with an R-27ET). Then any players who keep pushing into the middle of the map completely negate their speed and range advantage anyway Basically if I came up against say Defyn, Bad Karma or someone like that with me in a Flanker, them in an F-15E I don't think I'd stand much of a chance (whether I would stand a chance against pilots like those 2 is unlikely anyway to be fair🤣). But realistically 95% people aren't going to understand how to get the best out of it if that makes sense? I'll try and talk about it in the SU-34 video I'll put out next week
@@MiGanFox3 Looks like the insane speed was nerfed. can still go like mach 1.8 tot 2 but no more 2.5 it seems. atleast in some videos ive seen dont have the plane yet. the SU-27 is my favorite plane so glad to see some love for it.
@@SkullH4T Ah interesting, F-15E probably going to be a none issue then based off that, not much different to the C Yeah I do love the Flanker, there's actually another video I did on the Flanker a few weeks ago as well (only half voiced over, rest is freeze frames and text overlays but you might like it)
would you happen to know what my issue is? when i lock someone up with hard lock or tws lock, i turn my missile on and the seeker pops up like normal, but then it just turns back off, still maintaining a lock and all but it just turns off..
taking advice from this video and others of yours a realised how good the strat of being undectected is and won a game with 5 kills outnumbered iwth the su27sm shocking to think its called bad
Nice one mate, yeah it just takes some getting used to. If you play well at the end of the day there is no 'bad' 13.7 plane. Insert "It's not the plane it's the pilot" top gun meme here lol
Yeah my bad, I usually try to pause at the point when I say "I'm pausing it here" or something. I didn't realise till after I uploaded this one that I mistimed the audio and clip

Amazing channel! Adore the channel theme.Those little creatures are so cute!
More guinea pig appreciators are always welcome!
been struggling a lot in top tier since fox 3 became a thing and feel like this video will help!
Top tier gameplay guides and analysis is my focus so hopefully it will 👍
First
Also love your vids! As a new primium player I love you man! Also I do NOT just bomb bases.
😂
i believe from what i understand in your conclusion, i love the mirage for the same reason you love the su27

Keep up the good work 🎉 love your vids before i started watching you i would get like 2 kills max at top rank but now im getting like 4 or 5 a game 🎉🎉
use HMS IR for r73 & r27et, lighting them up with hard lock PD gives them a warning. Could also use TWS.

love your vids man
Does the Italian one fly as well as the other nations or just different loadouts? I think I’m more excited for this than the viggan
Which plane are you referring to? Italy doesn't have an SU27 in their tech tree
@ oh I was thinking of the mig29 oops
No worries, the Italian MiG-29 is essentially the same as the Russian & German variants. The R-27ERs are extremely strong but after they're gone you're quite vulnerable in the up tiers
Wow very nice video!

how are you fairing against the new F15 E or J in the flanker?

Unless you're double pressing your missile lock bind I have absolutely no idea
That's a messed up bind
@@MiGanFox3 I have my fire missile bind to 'RMB' and lock missile to 'ALT+X' . I use the fire missile bind to turn the seeker on
@@Denkmaldrubernacht I only have one bind to fire my missiles/lock them

I would like see u play sim whit su27sm
Sim isn't something I've played in the past, I want a proper head tracking and HOTAS set up before I get into War Thunder Sim/DCS
Why do you sound so much like alex albon
You reckon? I don't hear it haha
I thought the same thing
@@MiGanFox3 it's almost uncanny. Love the channel by the way, its most useful resource for this top tier stuff I've come across online.
at 12:24 the pause made me think my computer crashed, could you put some indication that this pause is intentional next time?
Yeah my bad, I usually try to pause at the point when I say "I'm pausing it here" or something. I didn't realise till after I uploaded this one that I mistimed the audio and clip
@@MiGanFox3 ur good
You told me to die so you could get the clip!
😂 mhm
Isnt that the most agile fighter ?
At 13.7 it's one of the least agile when you're comparing against things like the M2K, Gripen & J-10A
Boringly efficient is the words i've been trying to find to describe the F15 lol, agreed it's just not that fun
I'm glad someone agrees haha
Ok but ur bri'ish so this video is invalid
I didn't vote for brexit!
@@MiGanFox3then you’re wrong not to

No, that's me
@MiGanFox3 what a simp
Where's the limit ?
About 14:20 if you're not making fun of how much I've overused that word here haha. The scenery in your videos looks incredible by the way
@@MiGanFox3 approved.
