It would be perfectly fine at 9.7.

Would still have the same problem, but this time it will get slapped by even more Ir missiles that it can’t out turn.
You can’t kill it at all if you’re not one of the 2 8.3-9.3 jets that have strong missiles.
The F-105 is worse and sits at 10.0.
You’d rather have an entire BR ruined than nerfing 1(2) aircraft.

How? It is a strike aircraft that has decent speed and can carry a good bomb load.
So the F-105 at 10.0 doesn’t suffer from missiles despite being slower with bombs but the F-104 does at 9.3?

It isn’t ruined by it. This is just the start of jets. 1BR above you will be better in every way. It could be speed or weapons
This is a silly assertation. 9.3+ flareless jets also have to face AIM-9Ls, except the F-104 is best equipped to avoid them with its speed, acceleration and 2 AIM-9Bs (not to mention low heat signature in a head-on)

We haven’t had a BR rotation yet. So not really surprising they haven’t moved.
Well I have to admit that gaijin’s refusing to really double check the game is disappointing. Even relic entertainment solves serious balancing issues faster than gaijin.
What does my stats have to do with this? Last time I checked that doesn’t affect the topic at hand which is the F104
Your stats show you don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m sorry but you shouldn’t be talking about game balance if you dont even manage to get a 1 K/D in your most played vehicles.

That doesn’t have to with game balance at all. Coming at someone’s skill is a low blow showing that you don’t have any real argument.
you just have to turn and the F-104 can never hit you due to it’s low maneuverability

That’s what i’m saying thank you.
not only that but the F-104’s flight performance was bug reported and if that goes through like many other jets that got nerfed with similar reports recently it will become even less maneuverable
This makes the F-104 even more op given the worse F-105 is a full BR higher.
This was never the issue it was always about the F-104 top speed.
how is the F-105 worse when it has better maneuverability, more + better missiles and chaff? is it the top speed?
