Flares should do jack and s\*$T to any radar guided missile. But you should get a tone for being illuminated by the fire control radar. ---

> [@](#): > > _Xuanne said:_ > Also, sneaky sneaky recons with their C4s may be able to get an AA if he isn’t careful, and probably isn’t since he would think he’s safe on his side of the map 😉 MAA dude pussycamping his uncap all round spamming magic missiles with a book leaned on his left mousebutton is what’s on trial here. And a Recon can’t get to him there. Particularly bad on maps like Zavod and Lancam. You can literally go watch TV and come back later to see all your EZpoints. This has nothing to do with how powerful/not powerful MAA is or how powerful/not powerful Air is. Double the cannon damage the MAA deals against air for all I care. The sImple fact is Active Radar missiles is a noskill mechanic that’s getting abused. [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/aa-active-radar-missiles/154708.md?page=5)
