MiG-23ML Full Review - Should You Buy It? - Better In War Thunder Than In Real Life
The MiG-23ML is a tier VII, 11.3BR jet fighter with the Russian Air Tech Tree. It is extremely fast and has excellent missiles, but lacks in CAS. Is it worth it? I go over all of that and more in this full review of the MiG-23ML,

Heck even ir acm is good
If you got the $70, I'd say this is a solid investment. Recommend only running the IR loadout with 2xR-24Ts and 4xR-60Ms and use the IRST radar as it will not give RWR nor radar lock warning. P.S. Recommend to bind your keys for the manual swept wing mechanic so you can fully extend out your wings when in a dogfight or to sweep them back when at high speeds. rarely do i have it on auto unless I'm engaging a bandit as my teammate is #1 on his 6 as I'm trying to keep energy and altitude advantage then no reason to extend my wings out as I'm in the middle of helping out then I'm not trying to boom n' zoom, as I want to stay close as support, so I don't need my wings swept back either

Climb to 20k feet before you turn in for the initial merge, even most F-16s and F-14s aren’t paying attention to you and you can legit fly over everyone at 20-25k feet, once above you can just lunge the R24T from at most 6 or 7 km away, almost always guaranteed one of the two bandits will die, then you’re close enough to throw R60s at people and since you’re aiming down they can really reach out and touch someone even with the short burn time.

Another tip is to map the "Radar/irst beyond/within visual range combat" option to swap the radar over to boresight targeting to make it easier to lock targets at close range in the middle of a big furball. You'll need to use the normal target selection options to lock targets at longer ranges though.
I fully agree about this being the better top tier premium among the other options. In air rb when I see a f4s it's a free kill.

@@MilesBTW the R24T (IR version) true strength imo is that it can be used in similar distances as SARH missiles without tripping enemy RWR. So yes they will flare it if they expect it, but the thing is the R24 can be used in a way someone might not expect in the heat of battle
The only problem with it is the lackluster radar. Sure it’s got good range and coverage, but it has subpar tracking ability. Sometimes I’m literally looking right at bogeys at co-altitude and it won’t show anything on the radar so I end up having to ACM because they’re too close. It can also lose lock if they are doing anything other than flying towards or away from you, if they are beaming then forget it and if they are at certain angles which seems to vary wildly then it drops lock too. I find myself mostly just slapping on all IR missiles and using the IRST. Oh, and the way Gaijin has set it up so that you have to use the “select secondary weapon” to choose IR missiles if you have both because for whatever frickin reason even if you’re using IRST the game will select the SARH missiles first when pressing the “fire a/a missile” or “lock a/a” AND those require a lock to be had already in order to spool up otherwise you just get the “requires radar lock” message. Which is frustrating because in the heat of battle focusing on the enemy it is difficult to keep track of what weapon you have selected and that can mean the difference between a kill and a death.
It is actually a MLA with a worse Radar. So it is closer to a MLA not the MLD.

@@itspeachy2540 yeah he's right. From the MiG-23M as a basis, the ML's prime improvement was a lighter weight fuselage which led to the improved T/W ratio of 0.83 versus 0.77. The next improvement, MLA, focused primarily on an upgraded radar set, IRST sensor and firing control system. The final improvement, MLD, was centered on flight performance, with a rework in aerodynamics (addition of vortex generation and sawtoothed wing roots) that gives the aircraft higher AoA and thus tighter turning capability, as well as strengthened wing roots to handle more G's and more speed at a straighter wing angle.

On top of this the 25K can hold it's own in ground battles, with AMAZING ordinance loadouts, probably the best ground pounder for GRB in the game. So even if you just want air RB you could probably bomb bases with it after or before your 2 free kills.

@@gendarmerielosblancos4395 Your replies got lost in my notification feed. I don't have experience with the Mig21, but after playing for a few more weeks I still think that 2xR24-R and 4xR60M is still the best loadout for the Mig-23ML. Head to head jousting engagements have been the name of the game for me and have scored me most of my missile kills. I generally follow the following gameplan during my matches: 1: Set my wings to 0% sweep during takeoff and then return my wings to "automatic" mode once I've raised my landing gear. Later during the match I'll return to semi-auto mode if I need to duel someone in a gunfight. 2: I stay low to the ground to disrupt enemy radar guided missiles. The missile seekers get confused by radar reflections of the target once close to the ground. By staying low, I mean less than 100m from the surface. Ideally closer to 20m above the surface. 3: I will approach the enemy team headon, but from the far left or right of the blob of friendly planes. Ideally I will also try to hide my approach with canyons/mountains. 4: Upon reaching the enemy, my objective is to score kills with my two R-24R's. I'm looking for hot targets that are higher than ~100m. I want to lock them with SRC mode at 8-6km and immediately fire before they can start chaffing. If they chaff after missile launch, I just pray that the missile hits. If they chaff before I can launch, then I hold my fire to look for a new target. During this I want to start pre-emptively deploying countermeasures to disrupt any AIM-9L's or R-24T or R-27T's that are sent my way. 5: If the opponent is too low for a radar missile, I'll attempt an R60M head-to-head. I'll pre-flare during the approach to disrupt any missile locks. I will lock the target during my approach but hold my fire. Just prior to 1km I'll spray a few short bursts of cannon fire to make the opponent think that we're doing a gun run at each other. Then, if the opponent hasn't pre-flared, I'll release the R60M at a range of ~800-900m. There usually isn't time for any new flares to seperate from the plane at this point. 6: After merging with the enemy, I will not turn around to engage any other nearby enemies. Instead I'll keep my speed up and cut across the frontline with the ultimate intent to pass through friendly lines again. This whole time I'll keep my eyes open for other hot targets ~6-8km away for a new R-24R attack, or look for any enemies preoccupied with my teammates. Toss R60M's at the preoccupied enemies to see if they pass the vibe check. 7: Once my R-24R's are expended, my objective is to RTB for resupply. I'll assist with any nearby targets of opportunity along the way, but ultimately I want to disengage and get more R-24R's.

Both solid aircraft but 100% F-16 if you be playing top tier ground as the AGMs and GBUs are solid on the F-16's platform

meh the f16, the tomcat is so ez to counter
I dont know what the fuck theyve done to the R-60Ms, but i havent landed a SINGLE R-60 since the patch. Not one, even on jets literally flying straight, no flares, not turning, at a very lazy attack angle, and on full afterburner, EVERY working for them, and theyre fucking missing. Every kill ive gotten has been with the R24T, WHICH to that point have also nerfed and are far more susceptible to flares which was pointless since it would still go after them often enough. Since the hotfix id get 3 that fall for flares for every one that doesnt. All while still fighting F14s, F16s and Mig 29s that all out shine it.
Video is still current.😊
I would buy this when it goes on sale, not for full price
Bro the R24Ts are absolutely clapped
I have to ask : how good is it for Air Sim?

Strong as hell. Cheap spawn cost and if you master the art of being stealthy with the IRST/R34Ts you are guaranteed at least two kills each life.

Don't buy it whatever it's price is it's just not capable plane with broken radar range 30km you are seen by anything except mig-21, R-60M nerfed even smallest flare could turn missile tracking facing F-14,16 won't give you much life.

In my opinion the mig has the higher performance ceiling once mastered, but the Su-25k is both much easier to use and can serve as a CAS plane in ground RB. You NEED to learn to to defend and attack with BVR combat with the mig, which is challenging for some players.
The ML downed some F-14s in real life

Highly suggest only running the IR missile loadout. 2xR24Ts and 4xR-60Ms. Play support role and you'll rack up easy kills especially with the R-24Ts from distance. 4-7km is a solid range (obviously 7km being they're in the middle of turning and such)

I'm actually impressed by it's maneuverability and speed retention in dog fights. I noticed that the F-14 players get angry when they get outmaneuvered. One guy was yelling at me last night for shooting him down with guns after he stalled in a dogfight and I shot him all across the fuselage. According to him a Mig-23ML is not capable of doing that. I bought it to grind for Mig-29 but now looking at the loadouts, I'm not sure if I'm going to like it more than this plane.

as a player with 2000 hours lsn to this , if you are a new player this will be hell for you you are going to play vs f14/f16 and you will keep dying . any jet at11BR and above is going to be a lot of times vs f14/16 so only buy things below that BR . the reason war thunder put those jets is to revive the high tire matches so it wont be f14/16 vs f14/16 match, and after you buy this jet at 11.3 BR you will want to spend more money to a lower tire jet why? , your dying and not having fun remember? even i , A player with 2000 hours i wont buy those jets . if you all ready bought a jet at 11 BR or above , i`m so sorry for being late. reach level 3 on aviation and use bombers to grind an event seasons and sell those vehicles and get your self a jet below 11BR :) idk why you want a USSR aviation USA tec tree is ruling right now, but the su25k is the best deal for USSR now . you don`t want to lsn ? fine mate we will feast on you with f14/16 enjoy :)
