Air Simulator Battles - General Discussion / Support HUB

Is there any guide or resource with detailed information about enemy AI units in different maps/different tiers? For example:

  • Overall nationality of enemy AI aircraft (German/Soviet/British)
  • Specific aircraft model of different types of AI aircraft (airfield defense aircraft, attackers, bombers, escorts, surveillance)
  • Performance of such aircraft (like top speed)
  • Spawn altitudes of aircraft
  • Models of vehicles in map arrow ground battles for both offensive and defensive battles (tanks, light vehilces, AT guns, SPAA) and for convoys.
    *Ship models

It would be incredible useful and help avoid situations where your plane lacks the performance to catch up to certain bots or to avoid ID errors with them (e.g. on maps where blue team faces Western/NATO bots and red team faces Soviet bots, for example).

Started my first match today to grind the event. Some F-15E players just wouldn’t let anyone else get a kill, they’d rather bail out than let you have it, while spamming AIM-120s every chance they got to score one for themselves. Super frustrating.

Man, if the “J-out gives the nearby player the kill” thing actually worked, that’d be nice.

Unfortunately I don’t think it exists (at least not to my knowledge). However, it could be very interesting to make a spreadsheet/document with this information. If I have a little time in the coming weeks, I might look into it.

Unfortunately, this data will not necessarily be very useful, as the aircraft flight models are greatly simplified, which causes situations where B-57s or Il-28s go at more than Mach 1 or bots end up at several kilometers of altitude.

Or if they fly intentionally into the ground rather than getting killed, the closest opponent should get a maneuver kill.
Same goes for crashing while fighting the enemy, after all for some jets like the F-84F that’s often the only way they can get kills.

Did get a maneuver kill against a Lightning in an F-84F yesterday…after trashing 2 Sidewinders launched at me and surviving for 5 minutes after 2 Starfighters, one Jaguar and that aforementioned Lightning tried to kill me. Got an Assist on the Jag…helping out our Mig-21S.

@Mathll And let’s not forget the infamous Supersonic F-86 and the Supersonic Harrier.

@sigma_zero-psn Well if you are german in 7.0-8.0 or 7.3-8.3 and the enemy AI is british, good luck making any intercepts. The Canberras are very, very hard to intercept speed-wise, even for fully Spaded 262s including the C-1 and C-2, and the Swifts? Straight up impossible, even for the german Sea Hawk.

The Me-163 could technically, maybe do it, but it hasn’t got the range.

Also AI AA in both tiers and the 9.0-1.0 range often outmatches the weaponry available to kill it.
