For those wondering, the fakour 90's motor burns with a force of 83900N for 5 seconds (booster) and 12400N for 21 seconds (sustainer). For comparison, the aim 54's motor burns with a force of 14500N for 30 seconds. This means that the fakour's delta v is about 50% greater than that of the phoeinx.

[@clankplusm]

How bad is the energy retention and drag upon acceleration / drag o/a though? I know even after the buff the AAM-4 even with a far stronger motor doesn’t even reach the same speed as the AIM-120 because of drag and dies about as hard in turns, and the only point where it can have a higher speed via retention is by the time they’re going like 1500kmh and at that point neither can maneuver far from envelope anyways

[@aflyingcowboy31]

"For comparison, the aim 54's motor burns with a force of 10000N for 30 seconds." I am not sure where you got that figure but it is wrong: All AIM-54s: Force exerted by booster: [N] 14,350N "and the total ∆V of the fakour is about double that of the phoenix." Are you actually just making stuff up or something? AIM-54A Total ΔV: [m/s] 1224,86 AIM-54C Total ΔV: [m/s] 1158,69 Fakour-90 Total ΔV: [m/s] 1432,51

[@shiprat7370]

@@DaisiesTC Sure if it's just one F8U vs the MF but that's not how air RB works lol. Any smart F8U player will use its better retention to extend and you automatically lose. Don't forget the stock MF doesn't get usable missiles or chaff.

[@DaisiesTC]

@shiprat7370 I mean if you're taking fights with an F8U where you just end up getting third partied, that would have happened regardless of more people flying the F8U. But one of the big advantages the Mig 21 has is its acceleration. If a fight is lasting too long, you can safely just extend away most of the time. Don't over-commit trying to get a single kill.

[@DaisiesTC]

@shiprat7370 chaff also isn't really needed at that BR at all. Vast majority of radar missiles you come across are pretty useless.

Sedjil you can look at like a semi-active version of the Fakour, so you shouldn't be firing them at 9km, but 20km, and in my eyes, it makes sense. From what I've heard, they used Phoenix avionics, so having the Sedjil use russian or domestic radar systems with the shit load of HAWK missiles they have in stock makes sense. Don't treat the like sparrows or R-27. Treat them like Phoenixes you need to keep a lock on.
