0:25 they should add Maneuver kill to count as a kill and win RP for it, so the nearest enemy to you Will count has a kill, at least that could help the F-117 and somes Bombers with no gun to get kills.
@@AverageMustang Thats easy. When somebody crashes, give the kill to the nearest enemy in a 2 km radius. J-ing out already does that to a 5km radius.Being stupid and crashing while an enemy is closer than 2 km from you should be a manouver kill for the enemy. Thats the definition of a manouver kill
The Strela missiles uses contrast during day, wouldn't it not care about the flares anyway? From what I have seen, it has no problems at locking the F-117 during day time at the usual missile range (6km).
You need to kind of dive straight back towards the enemy spawn. I'm assuming my tactic is to do what you did in the first run except running away and turn around
Considering that the Strela uses contrast lock that doesn’t surprise me at all. At nighttime the F117 would be significantly harder to kill with the Strela
@@trevorwalkerjr.9375I've seen that FSR works really well. With raytracing at ultra I get 100fps with a 7800xt then when I turn FSR on I get 260ish. Edit:I play at 1440p
I just wanted to add and yes that is what some people need to realize that this game is for fun I wish the people that's always grinding simulator for PVE only matches need to realize that there are people that just want to have fun and play the damn game😂
The strela uses optical and IR lock which it can switch at will. That means it can track planes like the f117 during the day time heat had no effect on that missile
imo best option is to take one JDAM and one Paveway to drop 2 bombs on the first run (JDAM to 1 stationary target and the Paveway to what ever you want to attack) and then RTB...
Gonna start to grind this one. It's the type of plane I like, precision strike. In Sim it could have potential if Gaijin do some twiks and allow night battles, but I hope the SEAD stuff they're working on will help planes like the F117, A-10, Buccanner, etc, shine in a new way.
hey mat, in most cases the contrails appear a little above 5000 meters, so like between 5300 and 5500 meters. So if you stay at exact 5k you should be fine. Exeptions are cold maps. For example at the arctic map there are always contrails at any hights.
Id like to see them formulate a way to adjust the spawn points of all vehicles based on BR per the maps. It's weird spawning in a high tier jet 3km from the actual battle ground
I personally don't see any use grinding for this thing since I have the A-7s and the prem A-10 for my 10.0 to 10.3 lineup that carry more armament, but I can see the appeal for those that have a 10.0 US line up without any CAS.
The F117 does not have this feature in game (Unless it was changed from the dev server) Correction: Now it does. Matt probably didn’t try after he saw it wasn’t working in the dev.
Well since I don't understand the Squadron thing I guess I'll have to see if I can get some golden eagles looks pretty fun I don't really do ground battles too much😅
So basically all you have to do is join a squadron and play the game. Every 3 days some squadron rp will be dumped into the f117 if everyone in your squadron is active. It's how I got the AIM!
@thebinarysquad5962 so my big question are you able to go up against Squadron members and if so what's what happens if you shoot down a squadron member?
I’m absolutely furious that Gaijin butchered the Afghan Bagram and Kabul airports on the Afghan map; they literally just had to model the textures and flatten out the airstrip. Now I cannot even enjoy my favorite map anymore.
They should make it like a heli no ir lock unless under 3k distance also somehow my bomb bay button is now my bomb drop button also how you doing the zoom like that and for some reason my test drive of the nighthawk had no thermals
GBU-27s, although having less explosive mass, has a better laser seeker and a bit better maneuverability. Though at the ranges the F-117 is usually used anyway, the GBU-10 is fine as well, the GBU-27 however might be a bit less susceptible to getting the damage soaked if you directly hit targets due to the additional AP effect it has. The GBU-31s JDAMs should also be considered, as they are fire and forget, which can be pretty effective against (often stationary) SPAA.
You can do that yes, probably also best to do that. Only disadvantage is that, depending on your altitude, you might need to dive a bit to make the target stay inside the gimbal limits of the laser designator. Probably best to drop, go sideways, wait until the bomb is 10-15s away from impact, egress and designate. This way you can keep your distance without running into gimbal limit problems (and also bomb laser seeker range problems) because you flew away too far waiting for the bomb to impact.
Im on ps5 and all day i been having issues with being kicked from matches and crashing, also lower resolution at times, is it just because its console or is it just me

Почти нет смысла при первом респе климбить куда-то в сторону. Это необходимо только при вылете с филда. Просто потому что когда ты входишь в зону обнаружения (5-6км) ты уже над радаром, у которого 20°. А при вылете с филда, если не климбить в сторону то при подлёте к карте у тебя нет высоты и ты у всех как на ладони. Лично я выработал такую стратегию: 1 вылет (только взял): просто откидываю 2 бомбы лазерных и ухожу на филд. Кстати, я беру обычные гбу-12, т.к. они лёгкие и их хватает на 1 танк, а по 2 танка почти никогда не бывает. 2 вылет (взлёт с филда): климб под 90° от карты до 1км на скорости +-500км/ч. После разворот на карту и, продолжая набирать высоту, заходим на карту в стелсе. Откидываем бомбы и возвращаемся на карту. Повторяем это действие, пока не закончатся очки у одной из команд) Таким образом мы не теряем особо времени на обходы и остаёмся невидимы для зениток.

So horseshit that this plane wad literally designed to reduce its heat signature yet it still gets locked from that far away.
The strela uses optical and IR lock which it can switch at will. That means it can track planes like the f117 during the day time heat had no effect on that missile
Of course that means if you go behind a mountain or trees that missle loses lock.
