Edit 13.3, the uptiers will murder it and yall would probably complain about the relative strength of enemy aircraft.
What you talking about the f14B is already in 13.0 with 70% of planes have the aim9m or equivalent
And the f14A is at 12.7 where it’s practically the same as the f14B but with aim9h it should also get 9L as most aircraft have 9L or equivalent at 12.7

The F-14A has less CM (60 single pop), accelerates much slower (less energy overall), has weak RWR.
in general the F-14A is not the same as F-14B
Thats not at all what I meant what I meant is the f14A went up in a br with other planes with aim9L and equivalent the same as the f14B went up in br with planes with 9m and equivalent Why would giving aim9m to the f14B make it go up in br if other planes around the br it’s in have these missiles already
Who knows? By the time they might add 9M it could be decompressed and go up so you wouldn’t see 12.0s, like when the A-10C was like 11.0 or something and it made that whole BR unplayable.
And tbh it’s practically as strong as Su-33.
Plus there is a high speed maneuverability buff on dev
What the f14B?
F14B aren’t the only planes that make 12.0 miserable as a 13.0 they’re are plenty of other planes as good if not better then the f14B and the f14B is no where near as good as the su33 and I can say that as I have both

Cool like any other plane should be in game it should have its irl statics
LMAOO
What part of the SU-33 is worse than the F-14B besides flightmodel? The answer is NOTHING.
Better Avoincs, Better missiles, More missiles, to put it extremely simply. You haven’t played the 14B a day in your life if you genuinely think that. What a joke.
The Only things the F-14B has is more countermeasures (doesn’t mean anything when you have the second hottest engines in the entire game and you countermeasures are small caliber) and a better flightmodel. And the SU-33s flightmodel isn’t even that bad. Especially for what AirRB has come to.
Guys, ignore this kid. Based on his history here, he’s only been here to quip nonsense. He also has a negative KD in the F-14A and is double negative in the IRIAF. The only Tomcat he’s not negative in is the F-14B and it’s barely.
Combined he only has 52 games in the 3 Tomcats and doesn’t even have the SU-33 unlocked.
Also most likely bought all the upgrades to spade the A and B since he hasn’t earned nearly enough RP and SL in them to even research 1 singular tier 1 mod.

They’re large caliber and the 33 doesn’t have very hot engines.
The F-14B has extra small caliber CMs with the hottest engines at the BR.
Barely
i rather have 700 counter measures than 48
also the F-14 has 60 normal size CMs which is still more than what the Su-33 can carry
and now lets take some chaff as well and then the Su-33 might only have 30 flares or maybe even only 24 if you split chaff and flares 50:50
that deadzone makes a pretty substential difference
in some cases it is enough if somebody fires from slightly above and you wont get a RWR warning
the Radar way worse + cannon ammo count
F14b radar is much worse than the n001 of the su27 series lol

And I don’t play jets in RB it had been like a year or two when I switched to Sim buddy, I don’t play RB since '23.
No
Dude get out of here lmao
And the radar is 100% worse on the F-14B. It’s headon only.

The scan rates are worlds apart
No one worth their salt uses less than HPRF on the early Flanker radars buddy
Scan rates don’t mean anything if the radar can’t detect/lock anything
