I can get a lock but have to get closer than I want to get a launch in parameters. Then you have to keep the lock until the missile hits. Even then, they miss a lot when a Mig-21 is maneuvering hard.

Big lumbering bombers or cargo planes are easy enough.

Does someone force you to open this thread and read it?

Can you give police a description of who is holding the gun to your head and forcing you?

LoL.

Well, I guess from the views people are finding this discussion and the information within more interesting than the endless Skyr purse fights.

No one forces anyone to open the thread and read it. ;)

Purse fights provide some limited entertainment. Not when repeated for decades though. Maybe to the participants.

BTW, the new DCS Kiowa is pretty popular. My brother flew the A and C models as an Army Scout for a while and he likes it a lot. He is quite critical of flight sims too.

Yes.

He flew the Huey, Kiowa, Cobra, and A model Apache.
