They are a straight upgrade over the aim54, stat cards aren't reliable. The aim54 are completely useless under 10-15km because of the abysmal acceleration and won't even pull 10G, let alone 17G.

The Fakours are vastly superior to the AIM-54, the better acceleration allows them to hit targets with much greater speed and get to the target much faster compared to the AIM-54.

@weabootrash5891 I mean the pheonixes can be dodged very easily man I've had no issues with them, even when using my own f14, but I came from the hell hole amraam sligning back down to the f14.. Seeing 8 a team dropping 6 missiles each rn is just ludicrous and with these. It'll be whole lobbies of nonsense
@@EL_CHPP0 easy to dodge if its just 1 f-14 launching at you, if you get a bunch of them in different angles you need to go completely defensive and the other team easily push you
One of the few good things about the F-4F KWS is that it constantly gets downtiered into the recent ocean of Iranian F-14's. Like 80% of 'em don't defend and gawk gawk 3000 an AIM-120, while launching their gazillion ballistic rockets without a single care in the world. Sadly this won't last very long and the F-4 would quickly go back to getting rinsed by every single ARH-slinging 4th gen in the game.
been having great success with the sedjil. it's basically a longer range. faster off the rails. faster on impact faster oflver all r27er. it suffers at close range. no shit. it's a bvr missile. same as any pheonix or fakour.
If i want to go 4k altitude, spam them from 40km away i want sedjil, but i need to mantain lock on radar so the missile can hit? How many enemys at once can f14 radar lock on?
Here’s what’s going to happen. Gaijin will capitalize on the FOMO, release with current stat card, then later down the road “balance” it up to an unplayable BR and adjust it’s reward/repair cost to make it totally DoA.
Get into “TWS” radar mode, set your distance to “93km”, launch at around 39km away from the enemy, use “4” to change targets and start pulling left or right until the radar targets are at the edge of the radar screen (just in case you need to start notching fakours/aim-54).
I kind of disagree with the Sedjil, this missile is awesome for BVR Moonshots, only the seeker is sometimes a bit meh. I‘ve got a 80km Kill shot earlier today with it.
i see some people mentioning the missile range and being op on yt comments and reddit, just goes to show how many players are actually low br still and have no clue about top tier missiles lmao. Can't wait for all the posts saying this aircraft sucks when they die all the die.
Like really, it's just a Phoenix with better acceleration off the rail. Imagine what these people will think when they face things like the MICA which pulls 50G off the rail
@@arya1994you can’t use it. It’s for PC players to use on the gaijin marketplace. They can sell the plane on the marketplace for gaijin coin, which is like equal to 1 USD, they can then use that gaijin coin to buy premiums, GE, Or other past event vehicles that they missed.

6:10 in this image alone, theirs what 7 or 8 54s? This is top tier. Whoever has more F14s with 54s will win the match. I swear the 54s have a 90% accuracy.
Half the people in top tier, as soon as they see MSL in the RWR, they dont notch or go low enough, specially not early on like you need to now with the Fakours, so they just die
@locaog4mesyoutube612 you won't believe me and that's fine but I PROMISE I'm 50-70 meters. Depending how the trees are. I am just inches above them. I notch. I use counters. But it's just not enough
I don’t think you do I’m pretty sure if you break the lock it gets to use the on board radar from earlier and if it can’t it just flys the previous course on ins
If you break lock before the missile goes pitbull, it COULD still work, but if the bandit changes their flight path enough, the missile may lose track.
@@RT42069correct, and if you don’t have datalink, the primary radar is the onboard missile radar, and if a friendly even passes in front of that seeker, gaijin will unlock the arcade flight model and you will TK your teammate with a temporary god missile.
Only problem with it is you cant equip x4 r-27R1 under the belly. Kinda big deal to loadout x2 fakour or pheonix and 4 r-27r1. I guess the better phoenix is a trade off with better and more SARH missile loadouts.
u do understand, that these planes gets eaten alive at 13.7 dont you, the amount of fox3´s at 13.3 and above, combined with planes that has aim9Ms/R73´s as backups, AND MAWS´AND a TON of chaff, + super turnrates(f16/gripen). LIKE the tomcat is NOT a 13.3 or above plane. I will say its prob also undertired at 12.3, BUT until they make a higher top bracket, i doubt they are gonna move it up.
Fakour-90s have extremely high acceleration compared to the AIM-54.
I believe they also keep their speed for longer with their sustainer booster lasting longer

The Fakour-90’s motor gives much more specific impulse indeed.
The Fakour-90 is an AIM54A with the rocket motor from a HAWK Surface to Air missile strapped to it, it has an extremely high impulse.
Yes, but the over all time to get there is slower because the fakour’s are only Mach 4.0
Fakour 90 is a perfect example as to not compare stat cards but to see it's performance. Same with the Sedjil and the R27s, both are very fast acceleration right off the rail.

The Sedjils are essentially a reverse engineered MIM-23 HAWK ground to air missiles the Iranians adaped to work with their F14s.
Tankenstein the reason why those rockets are like that is because they are proxy fuse rockets like on the F-89D
Ive been comfortably launching fakours at around 70km with consistent kills every single match. It is the superior missile and worth the extra weight.
going to stay away 11.3 - 12.3 when stage 8 started. xD
Play 12.7 - 13.3 and hunt down the Tomcats! 😀
