Don't try to rely on ground to protect you unless you can fully obstruct yourself from where enemies are with a mountain or something. If you are beyond 10km, do a 3-9 while chaffing hard. If you are closer than that, do a 3-9 while chaffing hard but don't expect it to work reliably.

If you don't know what that is, turn to 3 or 9 o'clock relative to the missile on your RWR so you are showing it your plane's belly, hold that heading for a second or two, then do a turn to some other direction. Because you are flying horizontally to it the radar will have a hard time tracking you and will likely redirect toward chaff you're firing.

i think they changed the multipath height again and its 50m not 60, so that might be part of the issue. make sure youre not flying towards the missile when youre staying low to the ground.

if the missile is coming from above you, you want to rely on multipathing or the terrain (hiding behind a mountain). the lower you are, the better, since you can still get hit from splash damage. the aim120 has a lot of explosive mass, so even if it misses you by a good amount, you can still take damage

if its not coming from above you, you can notch (perpendicular to the missile) and chaff in clumps of around 3 or more. make sure to also change your heading, since they use inertial guidance. if you stay on the same path, the missile might not be actively tracking you, but it will follow your last known path and still possible kill you.

you can also 'go cold,' which is completely turning away from the missile. this works best when you are far enough away, and can also be coupled with hugging the ground

this goes for all ARH missiles
