22:34 "... you're not getting college credit for watching this ..." * angrily screws up notes, throws paper at bin, misses because not locked on *

Tim how does it feel to be doomed to making the same 5 videos every year because Gaijin keeps changing things
-
Wake up babe, a new Tim's Variety guide just dropped!
-
I must say, I really respect the punctuality on this video being revised. Love that in a creator
-
28:10 R-24R against F-4C is just the biggest gaijin moment ever.
-
must be a right pain updating this every year... I very much appreciate how concise yet understandably laid out everything is! no excess info, clean layman-friendly visuals, distinct terms (carryover of not just using several sidewinder variants) etc. I think it may be a good idea to shift talk about the WEZ/MAR & energy bleed to the back (as part of live usage), and shift the technical info about the missile system itself in front first? to flow between tech & subsequent capability

Hey Watson! Air to Air Missile.
-
You are a scholar and a gentleman. I love the inclusion of the sensor view side by side in the in gameplay sections.
-
WT veteran here, GREAT info, not just for missile newbies. Thanks!
-
Babe, wake up, Tim made another updated amazing missile guide
-
Anytime a new player needs help I show them your videos and it always helps them so thank you for the amazing content
-
Pouring another out for Tim as he prepares to remake all of his guides (he just re-re-released them).
-
The theme of this video is "again, not itemized on the stat card"
-
Liked, as always. Buuuuut: HARM is one specific ARM (namely, the AGM-88). Precursors were the Shrike and the Standard ARM. There's also the ALARM and several Soviet types. And probably some others, too. But positively surprised you mentioned A2A ARMs. Interesting tidbit: A Wild Weasel F-4 once blew up the back of a B-52 with a HARM by accident, because it targetet the B-52's tail gunner's radar.

Damn, I am working. Need to see this guide later 😢
-
Buddy, idk if any of us tell you enough - we love you.
-
Beautiful work each and every time
-
Love the "it's a game. Not a nato pre flight" hahaha great vid
-
perfect time for this vid to be released... just unlocked F-16AM and my first fox 3 carrier
