F5C is fine where it is, youre VERY agile, you have AMAZING guns with good damage and velocity and ammo count, yes you only have aim9Bs but you shouldnt rely on them anyway
youre quite fast aswell and you have decent energy retention
if you really wanna see a plane thats to high in br look at the A7K
Only because the game is so massively compressed that it can’t move. It is too strong in general at the moment, having many bugs that massively buff it.
F5C is the weaker one look at the NF5A a F5E the same br
F5C could go up but its good FM can only do so much
I’m aware, what I said applies even more so for the NF-5A, but the F-5C is extremely oppressive in its own right.
Decompression is the answer as it always is…
Probably best its FM gets brought down to IRL levels first. Overperforming by like 2-3 °/sec STR iirc
lmao no. It’s a one trick pony (dogfighting) and it doesn’t even do that well.
Incorrect.
Just because you and you in particular are bad at fighting em doesn’t mean they’re too strong.
Oh, as anybody can see by my stats compared to yours, you are not in a position to say this.
Bar the J-7D, name a single fighter at 10.7 that can actually beat them in a dogfight (heck, I even reckon in a gun only fight, the J-7D wouldnt necessarily win)
70% of the time i can beat a F5 in a dogfight with J7D only times i die are to 2v1s usually the plane with take off flaps just hovers and its cool mig 21 MF could beat iit too
unless they play energy against the mig they loose and you have to set that up before i gun ya down
J7D=Mig-21MF with better engine which is weaker than BIS engine but better than MF
then it gets PL5B which is like a rear aspect 9L meaning it has tough time seeing through flares PL7 is just a magic one
F-8E wins extremely easy (granted it’s undertiered) i’ve beat it in my Su-22 multiple times, A-10A outturns it, the Mig-21s outturn it, and pretty much all that’s left is either planes that outrun it (F-111, F-4, F-104) and strike aircraft that get curbstomped by pretty much everything anyways.
Don’t tell me you actually think the F-5 is faster than the F-104, F-111, and F-4.
oh my bad i misread outrun as outturn
j-7d´s shouldnt be 10.7 pl5b is better than the aim9l´s in my opinion
What? PL-5B is a good missile, sure, but the 9L is far and away better.
the acceleration is the thing that makes it so good. it get burns through its fuel in like 2 seconds and is way faster at its target than the 9l. and it feels more flare resistent
It probably isnt. Just it hits the target/closes the gap quickly enough that it doesnt see flares. Much the same effect can be seen on the MAA-1s even though I think they have C&Ped seeker from the 9L
probably, but it is faster there so it can feel this way
just play the pl5b at the 11.0 range, it is better than the aim9l
