Don't play WT anymore but gonna watch for the tutorial algorithm.

[@elitely6748]

Hell yeah, great to get a dedicated in-depth tutorial from our man Defyn! I've been notching Fox-3's slightly better but thanks so much we appreciate it!

[@Asspiss100]

8:05 ive found that when notching and dropping 2-3 pops of chaff at a time in random intervals, the missile is slightly turning into the chaff briefly before going back to lead pursuit on my plane- effectively making it travel a greater distance while also turning more rlcreating drag and slowing it down. Makes it a lot easier to outrun/ outturn it

[@MarkKirkwood-ox4zv]

Seriously started using your videos on how to actually notch, crank and play these jets at top tier. Genuinely top notch content as well as patter.

[@braedynhoward3644]

also, for cranking, losing some altitude while turning to the gimbal limit also forces the missile to turn more as it decreases in altitude and as it enters thicker air, while you retain your speed in a turn as you fly down. this makes the missile turn down, in addition to turning left or right, while flying into thick air. And if you then use the gimbal limit to turn in the other direction, it bleeds more speed before finally turning cold (but that's not recommended unless you have some distance to maneuver before the missile reaches you, otherwise, crank and go cold).

[@Gerg_de]

I already knew most of this but i didnt know exactly how the DL display and PD worked so this video was very informative

[@Duality.12]

this is why I love you you make things simple and put visual examples in the video for speds like me

[@Basicallybaltic]

I left the boring museum I was in (the Louvre) because this absolute masterclass beats every exhibition there by an art school rejection and a half.

[@ArcaneActual]

For real, great video! Hard to cover so much information that comes with the bvr play but you nailed it and kept it entertaining.

[@antonmancia2096]

Great video that compiles really well all the knowledge one needs to fight in the new META. A great watch

[@Bastyxx227]

When your understanding of a topic is so great, that you can explain it like we are 5 yo Excellent video Defyn, as always the Picasso of our time

[@opar6585]

That last part when defyn mentioned that you have other ordnances really relates to me. I just got AIM120 some minutes ago with F15C and while i grinded it most of my kills were with aim9m. Lots of people got so focused and stressed facing fox 3s that they forgot that ir missiles still exist, they just didnt flare. Easy splash.

[@Yablokus]

Your videos really helped me to become better at dogfights. Thank you!

[@nemexx3357]

Thank you for explaining this! Massiv help.

[@roebuckpayne]

This video is excellent. Well done as always Def. o7

[@Amexel]

Very helpful video, I knew some of this already but the strategies with altitude and cranking are really good to learn! Got an Ace in the Gripen A yesterday so IR-missiles are definetly still useful lol

[@H34Rt54]

Dude thank you so much for fox-3 missile guide,

[@oofdotcom]

perfect timing Defyn, i just got the RB99's on the "new" grippy

[@samuelealessi234]

You are the reason i didn't gave up on Air RB

[@Wotplaya4]

I want to note, for 9:05, that yes most PD radars will usually not have a problem with zero speed closure rates, not all radars can lock targets at zero closure speed (in all conditions). The F-14s radar most notibly suffers from zero speed clutter. How in the world you'd ask, that's because of sidelobe returns. When flying low to the ground, the ground right underneath you has a strong enough return (from your radar sidelobes) to clutter the 0 m/s speed region. The ground underneath you is essentially always moving with you at the same rate. Most modern radars do not have this clutter at all, it's just turned off in their code (I guess they filter these out using radar altitude data realistically speaking). In the case of the F-14, it's about a +/- 60 m/s region from zero speed you can't lock when cluttered, going to higher altitudes of course helps reducing the clutter. F-4J/S (and the Speys) suffer from the same issue, as well as radarsets with the MTI mode, maybe some other ones as well.

[@Mikestriken]

Yeah that part confused me, because I knew that closure rate was filtered in the F-14 from experience.

[@Beastactive66]

no matter how good missiles get missiles don't go through mountains.

[@varesin2978]

Defyn is a masterfull virtuoso when it comes to painting. That SU-27 at 8:45< is made in such a way that blinking makes it wobbly. So much talent required to create such a powerful illusion. Truly impeccable piece of art.

[@catto7274]

my brain expanded by a significant amount after this video, thank you neurosurgeon Dr. Defyn

[@willthomas9635]

this was very well thought out and presented. Well done. Should help lots of noobs out there

[@Panocek]

17:42 - targets that have clear sky as background gives Pulse Doppler no ground returns as reference point to filter out, thus any decent radar set becomes unnotchable unless chaff is involved.

[@The_Gabinator]

Thanks for the great tutorials as always.

[@Criiss99]

Our clan [NADH] thanks you...

[@WestwindKestrel]

Damn i'm early. 2 things that I think could be added is 1. Checking if canopy rolling can still be used to dodge and 2. a rough "matchup" spreadsheet where you fire two different radar missiles from equal starting positions and see which one reaches first (e.g. 530D vs. R-24R etc.). Also, try playing the Netz now lol.

[@babch0]

yay, from now on I can finally leave 8.3 and go play toptier again (it will be painful quckly lol)

I’m not gonna get to top tier before I die but I’ll watch this just in case I can play it in my afterlife

[@BlackbirdDrozd]

Anyone else noticed after reduction of the multipath that the WT trees are like 120 meters tall? I was flying a mirage today and was using the cockpit radar altimeter that displays exact height from the ground and when I finally reached 60 meters (when the ground protection of multipath starts), I was like in the middle of the height of average tree in the map ...... 120m trees (like 400 feet) is probably too much for a tree :D

[@nicolasalexander408]

Hi DEFYN, is there a video about how you got to learn so much about planes et al in war thunder? You have such a comprehensive knowledge as far as I can tell and are able to explain things in real time...just wondering? I got myself a F5-C, I've never had many jets and I do really like props tbh, but they are pretty cool though all the missiles stuff is not particularly relaxing.....

Just a note, the Matra R530F used to have a stat stating it having a pulse seeker. Currently this missile is not affected by chaff and behaves like a CW missile. Why, no clue.
