Well tbh the AIM-9P/4/5 are kinda overpowered for the BR for this plane and yea its the same story with the f5E bc thats also missing its P4/5 so yea for balancing reasons they could just give it AIM-9P/3 for balancing and ahistorical reasons but yea the plane needs smt better then the cursed aim 9E
The Hunter does not have radar guided missiles, is slower and less maneuverable.
The Swiss Mirage is not the only one missing the small droo tanks while M2K is missing itβs wing mounted tanks.
Tbh so many planes are still missing there drop tanks but yea gajijn just suddenly stopped adding them after the mig 21 got them
Ganjin doing evrythign in there power to not coreckt stuff :D
Because the hunter isnβt supersonic and is also pretty situational to use.
The Mirage would be competitive with the 9Ps, other aircraft at 10.3 already have more potent missiles than the 9Es or equivalents to the 9P. See the MiG-21s with 4 R-60s.
I keep repeating myself but you should be careful what you wish for. AIM-9P might just be what Gaijin sees as a reason for 10.7.
Your main weaponry is AIM-26 not AIM-9 no matter in which variation. The capability of any AIM-9 is related to your Br as well as the efficiency of your AIM-26.
I also would not fancy facing MiG-23 with R-24R in almost every match.
AIM-9E is still quite useful.
It very likely would be 10.7, the mirage 3 e is 10.7 while it has worse FM and rwr, also worse radar missile and less of them
530 is quite good but of course easily spotted.
Gaijin also likes to inflate Br on anything with a Magic.
But yes I prefer having the canards as well as 2 AIM-26 combined with 2 9Es at a lower battle rating.
Tbf the magic 1 is a way better missile than the 9j and also there is now a plane with 4 aim26s and 2 9js at 10.3 so it may not mean the plabe being moved to 10.7
