I just press my buttons in a random motion, the more random the better chance I have i guess, but I'm no seasoned pilot!
Something to add to that. I was piloting a cobra and i had a friendly cobra nearby, we spotted two mi28. We dueled it out and when i desployed flares and evaded one of the havocs ata missles meant for us hit another cobra from it changing course from our flares. I laughed so hard, but they were pissed.NerdyDodge wrote:In a jet, dive with your flares to try to lose the lock, IF you get a sustained lock and suspect that missiles have been fired then swing a descending hard turn, which can cause the missile to misjudge your range/speed/bearing and miss.
I succesfully dodged a ground to air missile today on Kashan while in a Cobra by putting the nose down and turning sharply, actually saw the thing whizz over the canopy!
