I love how American mains are so bad at the game, that they need to have the best missile bus in game to be viable. America had a very strong line up with the two F-15s, F-16s, and the F-14. But now they need to have the F-15E? As I said, I know American mains are terrible, but this is bollocks.
Why can’t France have their 14.0 (Rafale)
Why can’t Italy (who has the weakest lineup) have their Eurofighter (which they need, since their only viable plane is the Grippen)
Why can’t Britain have their Eurofighter (same as Italy)
Why can’t Germany use their Eurofighter to replace the terrible Phantom?
Why can’t Russia use their Su-30?
This is just blatant favouritism, and it is pathetic that official contests has to cater to American mains. It was bad enough that Gaijin bends over backwards for American mains, but now they brought back that terrible update where the F-15E was uncontested compared to the rest of the 13.7 BR.
Doesn’t change the fact that it was balanced (albeit Italy getting shafted with terrible line ups and lack of R-73s on the MiG 29). Now it’s just like that terrible update where the F-15E ran uncontested, and was fighting 12.7s while no one could fight back against their radar and AIM 120s.
Rafale is absolutely OP at the moment alongside the micas, being able to launch them while facing away from the enemy thanks to the new buff to Micas, same reason why there is no Mirage 2000-5F or chinese version.
Broken flight model (too OP too) (this goes for every EF in game)
With the Su-30SM I guess it’s because of the number of missiles, while it is a fat whale that sits at 300kmh after 2 turns, the difference in number of missiles by such a large margin could be the reason.
The F-15E is a very good plane, but it can be countered easy thanks to only having AIM-120 that are not the best, something like a Gripen can perma-notch it and close the gap to go in to a dogfight even, or the Su-27SM with the R-27ER forcing the F-15E to go defensive since the start of the game.
Also, maps are way smaller, the F-15 doesnt have that much time to go into outer space
Alright, let’s try this one: nobody plays Israel in the first place. Look at every tournament ever, they are never relevant and are never mentioned by people reviewing said tournaments. Even in Pubs, Israel is almost never present, beyond their Sakeen, Spitfire, F-15I, Baz, and F-16, and that’s usually just one guy.
