Did the Su-25SM3, Su-27, and Su-33 really need to be banned from the event?

Assuming that people are missile jousting at 6km alt, FM is still less than F-15A, it’s 27SM that’s equal in FM

the feedback would be the same: “my kh-38s got intercepted by 6 Rolands”

they’d be more likely to hit a moving target at least

You don’t need to sit in the weeds on the RU side.

You can go up and rain down your ERs with quite a bit of impunity against anyone that would pull up to shoot at you.

The difference in FM is negligible to the outcome of a match.

Because most of the people on the US side are people who never flown jets or wallet warriors who aren’t good at the game, this doesn’t mean it’s actually OP

And?

By that logic the F-14 IRIAF shouldn’t have been removed

the SU27 still has a really good flight model compared to everything else in the event

? what do you meant

as long as they are more than 50m off the deck they will eat an ER, and lots of people are constantly flying higher than that

on top of that with all the SAMs lots of people are just ignoring their RWR, so yeah SU27 would be absurdly busted and its good that it is banned

No

Yes.

The only thing keeping the MiG-29 in check is it’s limited staying power.

Su-27 completely throws that out.

Now if they limited it to only R-27Rs for the event you could revisit this but until then there is no point.

Also look up AGM-88, KH-58U, KH-25MPU, AIM-9M, R-27, R-73 and KH-29/25ML

So is mig23mld vs f15, f18, f16, f14, and even f4 in most cases

F14A got blocked, though dying to an Aim-54 is a skill issue

F15 and F-18 maybe, but then just use the Mig29. Though R-24R at short range is still better than Aim-7M

F4E, major skill issue on your part, just fly low and the only effective weapon it has is the gun

2x R-27ERs and 4x R-73s on an extremely fast chassis is closer to F-15’s loadout than 6x ERs when the game mode prioritizes BVR.

Mig-29, Yak-141 vs F-15 and F-18.
F-16 is a non-starter, that’s not ideal for the mode.

IRAF unless it was all F-14s

Clueless emoji and what happens when you turn or in a 1v2 or 1v3?

It would be ideal if it had access to Aim-7s. Thanks to the constant pings on RWR, situational awareness of Fox-1s is thrown out the window, so they are a much more ideal missile to use as they are harder to decoy and you are less aware of them.

Same thing that happens to an F-15.
