The presence of MIGS, when there are no aircraft in standards Soviet arsenal suggests that your normal Red Alert commander has limited access to his countries arsenal.
Actually, in RA1; Aircraft was the Soviet's best asset. They had Yak Attack Planes, Mig Strike Planes and Attack Copters/Transport Copters to aid them in combat. It helped them out greatly, because in RA1, the Soviets had minimal ground forces, so the extra air support was a god send to help secure victories that your armor muscle just couldn't break through. Having a group of Migs swarm an annoying base was ideal in conjunction with Mammoth Tanks and Heavy Tanks. After RA1 however, the Allies broke up the Soviet's superior air force, figuring it would stop them from ever being a threat again. Instead, it simply encouraged them to find ways around that rule; such as with Kirovs (do blimps count as standard aircraft? It's in a grey area), the Migs and Siege Copters arrived in Yuri's Revenge when the Soviets had already broken the treaty, so they were rolling out weapons they were previously forbidden to use. This is also why in RA3, where the victory of RA1 was nullified; they also have Migs and the new Twinblade Helicopter (feels like a superior Siege Copter with the weapons of the old Mig and Yak).
Love how in many tests one of the black eagles delayed their attack..... Ohh they don't do that much more da.... *4th one shoots missile and boom you got your difference in power*
Black Eagles are a lifesaver. If you play with super weapons turned on, you'll definitely want at least 8 of them. That's how many it takes to destroy a super weapon or construction yard in a single bombing run. And believe me, it can buy you valuable time when it comes to the lightning storms and nuclear missiles. And with a little micromanagement, you can maneuver them around the worst AA defenses and take out the con-yard for a really crippling blow. Much better than the standard Allied Harrier and that's why I always play as Korea.
The only problem with Boris' MiGs is that you have no control over them, so they'd run the risk of getting shot down when flying straight into the enemy's dense AA defenses, so in terms of practicality, the Black Eagles are the best aircraft in vanilla YR.
Since I always played in Korean dubbed version, never knew the Black Eagle sounded like that in English version!! Quite accurate pronunciation for a Korean pilot though.
In real life, South Korea's Black Eagles are a world-renowned aerobatics group. I got to watch them during an airshow in Singapore years ago, and boy they were amazing :)
Number of Black Eagle shots required to take out an IFV: 1 Number of Black Eagle shots required to take out a Flak Track: 1 Number of Black Eagle shots required to take out a Gattling Tank: 2
I think most impressive thing about Black Eagles is that they can one-shot basic AA vehicles and four-shot Apoc. On top of almost killing Miners and double-squadding ConYard.
What did learn from this? Well, turns out, not only can Boris call in an airstrike, he is also a total boss! Quote Tanya: "Oh look! I can call in an AIRSTRIKE" Turns out MIGS is PRETTY good.
Well Mental Omega does have the Harbingers... So one can do something with similar concept for the MIGS. A structure that allows for a super weapon charge of some Migs coming in and bombing the shit out of enemy base, costing like 5k gold? I AM IN.
One thing I would have liked to see is a test on the firing range for the harriers and black eagles. That elite eagle looks like it could fire its rocket from far further away than the harrier. Maybe you could put them on the same port and then test attacking a tank at different ranges after takeoff. Testing normal harriers vs eagles + veterans and elites would be helpful.
[AGM: Air to Ground Missile] MiG's AGM: Maverick 3 Black Eagle's AGM: Maverick 2 Harrier's AGM: Maverick 1 . . Y'all can tell MiG has the superior Firepower but they're available only when Boris marks the Structure.
I forgot to mention this: 😁 if you have RA2 Ini Editor, you can edit Harrier/Black Eagle and change their projectile/attack type from Maverick 1/Maverick 2 AGM to Maverick 3 AGM. You need to save it, then run the game, then back to INI Editor, then save Changes to the Game. Note: During the Intro of INI Editor, you need to Choose RA2YR not RA2, there are some Editables in C&C Generals and C&C Tiberium, but they dont apply to RA2/YR, Generals and Tiberium like RA2/YR, game changes only apply to the owned game not other games.
4 MIGs are needed because MIGs travel across the map to reach the target. They can be shot down so 4 is to ensure you still have some remain to attack the target in case running across anti-air defense.
Not necessarily, the MiGs spawn on the edge of the map closest to where Boris is. For example, if Boris is at the left side of the map, the MiGs spawn from the left side. Boris can be very quick to take out bases that are on the edges of the88 map.
Spawning-on-the-edge-of-the-map-closest-to-where-Boris-is does not mean they can not be shot down by anti-air defense. When the MIGs move to anywhere in the map, there is a chance they will be targeted by anti-air units / buildings. If there are only 2 MIGs the chance they ALL got shot down is higher than when there are 4 MIGs.
One-Soul-a-Time I didn't say that MiGs can't be shot down even before reach their target. I just said it's not always the case that they'd be shot down.
summary of black eagle %100 correction: more damage more durable safer attack range(longer range then harriers to increase the successful returnin when there is AA unit/defs)
Both comparisons with the Apocalypse tanks were not fair simply because when you attacked them they self heal so comparing their health afterwards wasn't accurate... and on the second comparison when you attacked with them I think the harrier escaped its missile?
Isn't that if you keep pressing Alt and point onto some point, the plane will eventually fly ovre the area like Sige Chopper? coz I remember using BE use that Alt Click on Enemy's Prism Tower and then it landed on the tower, although haven't done in years
One aspect I think often gets overlooked about the Black Eagles. While they have higher damage; this comes at the cost of slower speed, and weaker armor. A squad of them can easily decimate a construction yard, war factory, or most major structures. So to keep it balanced, it's super easy to knock them out of the air if you see them coming and prepare for it. Because of this, players using the Black Eagle Jets really need to pressure their opponent so they can't just drive a bunch of AA to intercept the Black Eagles. I find they are best used in conjunction with a full frontal attack, so while the enemy is trying to hold you off; "wait, where did my War Factory go?"
GoIdLeopard T after selections for units, T before selections for buildings. i use CnC to play on ra2 yuri revenge, could be the difference or could be the default.
By playing Allied faction those not Korea, use Engineer to capture Tech Secret Lab and hope that you get Black Eagle from it -> It will replace your Harriers so if all of already existed died, you will not able to build them again. (except the Tech Secret Lab is destroyed or captured by other players)
They do not have self heal, they only heal when staying on airforce HQ. Try damage one and fly'em around for a bit, they won't heal unless you land them.
you can repair a plane on a service depot by selecting the plane and alt + clicking the depot, nothing will happen at the first time but after the plane is retreating alt + click again and it will land on the service depot and get repaired :)
The biggest problem that makes Black Eagles not as strong as this may show you is that units that are moving will take less damage from a Harrier/Black Eagle shot. Not totally sure of the specifics why, something to do with Projectiles and Warheads, but you can very clearly see this. Black Eagles are mainly better at sieging than Harriers, and not necessarily picking off units, because Harriers are way cheaper which makes them way better at sniping units (get them faster, meaning you get more shots, easier to replace, less of an investment, about same effectiveness against moving units) while the extra health and damage on Black Eagles contributes more to them being good at sieging, because they can survive AA better and will deal way more damage to buildings, and less good at sniping, because of the aformentioned issue.
Justinas P. That means you'd have to compare it to an elite sniper too. Which also has more range. Though when you ask me about utility Viruses can ultimately kill large infantry groups faster. A Sniper IFV however shoots 33% faster with a whopping 14 range-- non-elite compared to a Virus IFV. So it evens out, I guess?
The presence of MIGS, when there are no aircraft in standards Soviet arsenal suggests that your normal Red Alert commander has limited access to his countries arsenal.
Top commands rests in hands of just one man in Russia
In RA1, US after won the war forbbid USSR to have any airforce. So these MIGs are probably a few.
Actually, in RA1; Aircraft was the Soviet's best asset. They had Yak Attack Planes, Mig Strike Planes and Attack Copters/Transport Copters to aid them in combat. It helped them out greatly, because in RA1, the Soviets had minimal ground forces, so the extra air support was a god send to help secure victories that your armor muscle just couldn't break through.

They also counter the usual anti-air the enemy has. IFVs and Flak Tracks get 1 shot by Black eagles. Not Gattling Tanks though.

Great idea!
Flack troopers are actually pretty good against infantry.
it already beating done in his other video
also flak weapon is great against infantry even though it made against aircraft
In real life, flaks are devastating vs infantries and cause nasty damages.. Thankfully, flaks were banned for such use later on.
Flak wins
I love how Black Eagles missile sounds different to harriers
This is why i always played Korea if I was allies. These airplanes are OP
I curious Like this experiment.Thank u
Cant imagine how much damage can elit boris do with his 4 migs (12 missles)
4 MiG attack will destroy any type of buildings in one shot, presuming none of them are shot down.
@@SantomPh Yup. 2 Migs are enough for half a construction yard, 4 Migs enough for a full construction yard or super weapon.
So it seems that in battle between Harrier and Black Eagle there is one winner... MiG.
