Re: stingers

nope, just keep locked on until they drop their flares and fire.



I think choppers take 3 hits, so get them when they're smoking, but jets only take two mostly.

And then wait for that J-10 to come back from a different angle and blow your as5 up.

Re: stingers

i dont know for sure, but i think waiting until the jet passes by, then getting in it prevents you getting killed in the AA.

Re: stingers

This is why I take my m95 and shoot pilots before they get off the ground, people may view me as cheap but on gulf and wake I have saved countless people from having their gaming experience ruined by a pro chopper/j10 whore.

Re: stingers

when shooting missiles, dont shoot as theyre going towards u, shoot as theyre going away becuz missiles are meant to follow jets

Re: stingers

Also never stay in stinger just waiting or you will be easy target for jets

unless he knows your there, just jump in as they pass by fire them off then bail and move away about 10 feet because hes probably gonna strafe it, also if he dropped his flares the first time chances are he doesnt have them back. J10s are the hardest to hit with them too. try daquing, plenty of slow jets to take out, plus you get tungustas, or gulf of oman, soo many AA sites Jets have a hard time figuring out where its coming from leaving them vulnerable.

Re: stingers

Another weapon that requires a little practice. The best place to start is to try and catch your target involved in a dog fight, attack choppers dog fight too, and shoot him from the rear. Right after fireing the missles jump out and run for cover because you are a lit up target, on radar, while in there.

Anyway just doing that will get you a few kills and is a good place to start . . . . . . . . . . Red

Re: stingers

I think 2 stingers if hitting a plane should take it down but it doesnt seem to be the case >.<

Re: stingers

Stingers suck the only things I can kill with it are a smoking blackhawk a distracted Attack chooper and if i fire at a jet I have a 5&#37; succes rate.

Re: stingers

Sad thing is that you need 3 stingers per jet.. air to air missiles you need only 2..
Just, NEVER go sitting in the AA thing, always wait for jet to fly close enought it cant anymore turn and shoot you. When the enemy close enought jump into the stinger station lock on and fire. Then get away.. if the pilot knows what hes doing he'll shoot the stinger station even if it doesnt show up in the radar.
