F-14a iriaf persian tomcat is pay to win fix it gaijin

according to https://statshark.net/ fakour is just pay to win at this point just try to compare aim 54 c/ a or even aim120 c/a always fakour have the range and acl to hit target before almost any fox3 in this game this shit can hit people from 50km with enough altitude plus you have small react time to notch it

the snail have 3 option here 1- nerf fakoor 2- buff aim 54a/c 3-buff aim 54a/c and make f14 iraf searchable like maus event
i prefer 3 :0

Fakour is an awareness check, easy to notch, easy to spot visually

it’s advantage is insane speed and late warning (it gets later the lower you set your RWR sensitivity)
IRIAF is just a one-trick pony that works because people don’t know how to notch or aren’t paying attention

I’d agree on making Fakour warn you earlier. But besides that it’s not really that op.

Relies too much on the enemy being dumb/making mistakes

Massive skill issue, imagine dying to fakours in 2k26.

Fakours are kinda dumb with how late they warn you, but aim-54s there’s not really any excuse.

just move the F-14s up and give them 9M honestly

did you try to see fakour in state shark

Mate, you have such a good rating. Why are you complaining?

Out of all the issues war thunder has, Fakour is far down the list that needs changed. If youre paying attention they are very easy to dodge whether its notching or multipath. There are far more important things wrong with war thunder than not being able to dodge a easily avoidable missiles.

I’m in a mostly stock Mirage, basic crew and have my RWR sensitivity set to 0
My friend here has me hard-locked with his radar and is launching fakours

I mean, yeah, the Fakour isn’t too OP. All I want to see is the tech tree Tomcat getting a missile with the same range as the fakour. Buff?

No reason to move it up. It has a single niche that is quite avoidable and is a downright awful aircraft in most other respects.

See what I said above

That’s not what you said in OP, but changes should only be done if historical regarding missiles imo

Did you try to notch a fakour? extremely easy, you dont even need the rwr, you just see the smoke coming towards you from 40km away.

All the people that die from fakours are the ones that go straight towards them or the ones that still rely on multipathing, in both cases its just skill issue.

historical regarding? how in earth aim 54 is slower then fakours

Why would it be anything but significantly slower? Have you read on what the Fakour 90 is?

Pay to win? Definitely not. I got it for free during the event. And still I don’t remember the last time i died to a fakour, probably the easiest fox-3 to notch or avoid. Once an F-14 shot all its missiles it’s just a flying target

You mean besides the phoenix?

https://youtu.be/DF1Kv3SHviI?t=39 just see irl

yup, probably

What am I supposed to gather from this video?
