Gojira:
"Tippy, be careful to stay out of the LBX's gun arc."
blockguy™:
I also try to get a shot at Coaxoch. I get on her tail, while making sure there's room for my comrades, and (once in range, if even on her tail) I launch my last 3 HSM's while firing the AC5.
I begin to worry about the LBX.
CypherX:
"Who's gonna get her?" I say as I readjust targets and line up on the Shikra. I fire off both AAMs and think about lining up for an RAC shot, but I decide otherwise when I remember the LBX. Instead, I break off and prepare to watch the fireworks.
Operator¹:
Bell starts calculating a shot on Coaxoch with the KSM.

Considering the LBX is a chin-mounted gun with only a 180 degree arc, you're pretty much completely safe attacking from behind.

Coaxoch attempts to evade the missile without using flares and has less luck than Hawkeye when she tries to dogfight in a K-20.
: Oh dear. I knew we should have taken a LAMS.

Learning from her mistake, she instead deploys flares and tries pulling up, temporarily reducing power to the engines to cut down on the heat emissions. Three of your missiles are trashed, but the last two strike the engines, hindering performance significantly.
You should probably be more worried about the crowded airspace than the LBX.

Calculations show there's about zero chance her being able to evade the KSM.
