While doing the "Aces of North Vietnam campaign i keep running into an annoying occurrence.

 

1-Getting hit by Sparrows even though i'm skimming the ground and 2- My K-13s being completely ineffective outside of .8 of a mile despite the targets being straight and level.

 

The first situation is a bummer because i have been in situations where no F-4 could have even distinguished me on radar from the ground clutter but still i'm locked and sometimes nailed. The second makes for a number of failed missions.

 

I always figured on 1.2 miles being the perfect launch point but no joy. .8 is seemingly the max range for the K-13 to track properly enough to score a sure hit.

 

I don't want to be either invunerable or unescapable, but it would be nice to get things a little more towards reality.

 

Hints?

For the sparrow try to open the weapon editor and see if there is something overpowered.

 

For the K-13 confront the data with the one from the AIM-9B if is inferior is wrong. The K-13 was a copy of the AIM-9B but slightly improved in the seeker.
