see the problem is if there is even a single mig 29 or su27 or any other A2A capable plane up as well as a pansire said planes can just sit out side your range up high and rain down missles on you so you have to hit the deck but then the problem with helicopters come in se where im going with this?
i just played a game and this excat situation accored 70% of the games i play at top tire this excat senario occurs
Obviously its going to be harder, its a 2v1 after all. Its like saying its harder to win a fight in an F-16 against 2 Su-27s. Which is true but also obvious.
I said that as an example. But no the F-16C can carry AMRAAMs with mavericks so it won’t be as bad as you think since AMRAAMs travel much farther than R-77s.
If you want to be specific there isn’t one, since we’re getting a baseline LANTIRN pod. Which makes alternate, early LITENING variants nearly redundant since digital zoom isn’t implemented, so it’s functionally identical outside a better FoV.
Which due to the way there is no masking / vignetting (e.g. screen goes black at the edges of the screen properly in Ground force’s “Sniper view” or “commander view”) in WT there is no actual difference between magnification and FoV for TGPs as it just displays the entire screen at some magnification.
The Israelis stay with the LITENING-III TGP, where the closest counterpart the US F-15E used was The LITENING-G4 (Similar 1K^2 detector array size, so would be functionally identical in game).
And there are further options for the US F-15E’s with the Sniper ATP-XR and -SE (potentially also LITENING-LA, but has only been flight tested on the F-16 so far, i don’t know if there is an intent to bring it to the F-15 at this point either, though it should basically be a drop in replacement for the most part).
US is the best and most advanced nation , stop giving it worse engines because of your own political views , Russian bias has always been cannon thing in warthunder and gaijin doesn’t even try to hide it.
Man, years later and the US Tech Tree still has to fight to get what it should have already. Tons of backlash, tons of evidence dropping, tons of forum fights. All because we can’t just give it to them to begin with.
I watched the live stream for the past few updates and damn near every time they hint at US vehicles not being good in game. F-15’s first introduction, “Don’t Expect it to be that good in game” (Referring to its Irl K/D). F-117 “Useless” (Referring to the viability in game). Gaijin is not helping defend against claims of Bias when they use phrasing like this. Especially when there’s already a community with a lot of tension. Regardless of what side of the fence you’re on, this is poor PR management at the least.
I do still have a bit of hope, there are a ton of accepted bug reports on the F-15E/I so maybe they’re planning to add them all at one time on the live server, it’s a low chance considering it’s gaijin but if we don’t get any changes before the end of the dev then that’s what I hope for
