Yes it is as this is making strike aircraft irrelevant.
This argument would be valid only if we had much less players than 16v16 and if every missile fired would guarantee the kill.
How many strike aircraft are there at 11.0+ BR, the range OP is talking about. Very little, because the world realized a bomb dropped from an f16 is just as potent as one dropped from an A10. Stop telling people how to play because you don’t like their play style.
About 18, not to mention some jet with the mark fighter are peak horrible, namely the tornado.
18? Are you including fighters converted into strike aircraft?
Welll it suppose to be higher tho but if you don’t believe me just go in game and count , anything with the mark Strike aircraft is counted
More than a dozen actually.
Fighters carrying A2G weapons literally make dedicated strike aircraft useless and this shouldn’t happen.
Then you are completely missing the point I am trying to make. Those are fighter frames with bombs attached. They are just as fast as their “fighter” counterpart and as such can get to bases in a reasonable amount of time. I am talking about slow dedicated strike aircraft.
Which ones? I’m curious.
And please see my other message regarding fighter platforms turned into strike aircraft.
So you now , cherry picking , they are as fast meaning they are good and will def be able to get the base instead of his teammate which are in faster and lighter fighter that can snatch the base before they can or just left the base on life support for the strike aircraft to lick whatever left
Give me examples of fighter platforms converted to strike aircraft that can’t make it to bases.
Being on a fighter frame means nothing if you’re clapped by fighters, your point ?
If they were as fast as fighters this and many other threads wouldn’t even exist, so I highly doubt you’re right there.
So 11.0 and above only have Fighter platform convert to strike aricraft ?
What? Fighters stealing bases from strike aircraft make them useless even though the very same strike aircraft keep getting clapped by fighters? your argument makes no sense.
Yeah, they’re getting clapped in a furball by fighters as they’re forced to do that since they have no bases left to bomb and gain RP.
No, there are others, A10 and Su 25 for example. My argument is that a mirage 2000D, which is a strike aircraft, carrying bombs can get to a base just as fast as a Mirage 2000C, which is a fighter, carrying bombs. My argument is that a fast fighter weighed down with bombs is still as fast as a strike variant of the same plane weighed down with bombs thus making the argument that they are making strike craft useless irrelevant.
So, they can’t carry their own missiles?
People playing bombers and attackers aren’t hated (at least usually, based on threads). If they zomb (alt tab and suicide every drop) then yes.
People who demand the enemy team to not do their objectives, objectives being: Defend airfields, defend bases, defend group targets ARE hated.
If you:
- Fight back or do your best to survive
- Don’t complain about people playing the game to accomplish their objectives (defending stuff from you by taking you down)
- Don’t suicide/crash intentionally to deny interceptors from getting rewards for doing their objectives
then I don’t hate you.
If you go further and
- Communicate (“Follow me!” to ping position and “Cover me!” to warn of enemies as appropriate)
- Engage in teamwork (organize raids and encourage people to fly escort for you in formations)
then in fact, I quite enjoy your presence. I love flying mustangs escorting b25s and wellingtons and lancasters and stuffs across the English channel. It makes my larper heart come alive.

Great example, now try to outrun MiG-23 in your Su-22 to a base. They sit at the same BR so it should be possible, that is if your theory is correct.
Relying on something you’re inferior at to get RP isn’t good game design.
I can’t belive this is an actual topic.
“The best 3rd gen multirole is doing it’s job better than literal fighter aircraft wahhhhh”
Stop tryna use fighters to bomb bro. Problem solved.

Su22 can carry 6 IR missiles along with bombs from what I can see. Hardly useless.
So players can’t enjoy the game they want to, bomb if they enjoy it or want to, because the game is designed badly?
