Buff JA37DI for top tier fights

I would recommend to buff up the new JA37DI both premium and tech tree version so atleast they can withstand the fight on top tier not to mention we have a literal satellite destroyer (f15E) and much more missile bus jets with high tech radar while JA37DI just use mere 4-way RWR and DL-less radar which lack capability to use rb99 to its full potential.With that being said even a 80$ premium could have a worse performance and tool against even F4F ICE which is literally same br.

With this I conclude to only recommend upgrading RWR and radar system which could be a fair trade for the fox-3 era unless if Gaijin kind enough to give out aim 9m in its weaponry as well

there’s nothing to upgrade in terms of avionics. thats just how it is. maybe you could make a case for that prototype HMS but thats about it.
AIM-9 “M” was reported already

ja37di has hmd protoype?

Nah, no one will buff the equipment just because you yourself agreed to buy this miracle, no one forced you and before buying you could see what you would spend the money on.

It fully corresponds to its characteristics = BR

It should have its datalink channels added which it’s currently missing. On top of this, I would suggest adding the HMD that was tested as a plug-and-play system, as it would enhance the aircraft’s capabilities. If this still isn’t enough, then I could see an Aim-9Li (or whatever the upgraded 9Ls the Swedish were proven to have before the gripen) could be added as an option ingame.

If you fell for the €80 bait then i have limited sympathy, no reason for it to be much better tbh. Only fix would be to place it at 13.0 with the F-4F but besides that ig it could get an HMD but that only goes so far.

would only work in a limited frontal arc since it was connected to an IRST/EOTS system on the nose

Ignore the premium version; talk about the tech tree version. I’ve been waiting for the RB99 Viggen D for ages. Now that I’m flying it, I’m like, “Damn, I can’t beat anything in a dogfight because I fall out of the sky if I try to turn.”
My father flew the JA-37D and C, and he says the energy loss during sustained turns is ludicrous, This might just be becaus of the keyboard input ofc.

The problem is not about to buff them or not, the issue is that the JA37DI goes against the F15E. F15E can cruise at 2.5 Mach, plus they can fire AAM from 60+km away. The JA37DI is a good plane, and is extremely dangerous in the right hands, but the problem is that the enemies it faces are just too OP for what the JA37DI should be up against.

I would suggest either move the JA37DI to 12.3 so it does not go against F15E or move the F15E to at least 14.3

We need another BR decompression with these new jets being added, they’re just on new/higher level of gameplay compared to 3rd gen viggen/f4 ice but with amraams. There should be at least 1.0 gap between f15e/i and 3rd++ gen aircrafts
