F-18 is perfectly fine at 12.3

You bomb minibases in top tier jets.

As compared to other things around its BR, it is merely one step above the F-4J over which it has almost every advantage possible.

Agree, there’s not much leeway to balance this stuff with the current compression.

The jump from 12.7 to 13.0 is the worst, like imagine the F-16A Netz being just 0.3 below the su-27. Actually, we don’t need to, it’s real lol

The F/A-18A? (This post is about the A variant, not the C (e) variant, which is 12.7, which is either OP where it is or UP at 13.0+)

why say Su-27 when you can just say Su-33 with more missiles and good RWR

I mean I rawdog F-18 in my J-7E, and my only gripe with J-7E is that I don’t get IRCCM missile. you have to remember that J-7E has weaker engine than J-7D and it still rolls F-18A like it roll a sushi.

I’d take MiG-21 bis with 4 R-73 than F-18 with fucking 9L and Sparrow all day long.

2* R-73.
I might agree with you if it was 4

in a world where gaijian doesnt nerf shit it would have 4. but point stands, i’d take R27 + R73 even if there’s only 4 among them than 10 AIM-7

Still awaits MiG-21 Bison(Late.) with 4 R-73 or R-77 in regular TT since day 1 that I pre-ordered the Bison. XD

Also, I understand what you meant and admit. :)
I might be upset about OP’s claim when I wrote that reply and put some personal bias in it. :/

I still don’t think F-18A in 12.3 is fine if we consider the rest of the jets nearby. :|

You are copeing so hard rn

what? It’s slower than me with full missile load dawg. i’m taking the duel with me esp with expert crew.
