Tbh anyway we said everything there was to say in the hundreds first messages
After that the convo just went into explaining the same thing over and over again to newcomers who were bringing the same pictures that we had already analysed and the same arguments that we had already discussed
I have the thread silenced now because there won’t be anything useful going on in there anymore
lol this forum is filled with people who roleplay as digital janitors, dont worry

anyway the f18 spam made the f1c basically useless, you get immediately sucked up, making your kit even worse, hopefully once the wallet warriors get tired of their overpriced boat the game will be in a better state.
they wont, just look at the F-4S

To be fair, Gaijin did spend a lot to make “influencers” praise the F4S. To this day, you can still find weirdos saying the F4S is the best premium in the game.

i dont mind the f4s since i can actually fight on in the f1c, but the f18? If im out of magic 2’s that thing can just run my ass to town and theres nothing i can do lol
well, the f18 spam didnt get better, i guess im permanently shelving my f1c-200, regret buying it now.
12.0 with 2 magic 2’s poor 11.0’s
F/A-18 has no right being 12.3 if it remains this br missiles should be removed leaving only IR 9Ls F14A being 12.7 and F16 ADF being 12.7 while this is only 12.3 is crazy
The F/A-18 does not have any powerful missiles. It has outdated Sarrow and AIM-9L which are dropped as decoys. While the MiG-23ML has all-aspect missiles.
It’s funny that no one uses these Sparrows in the game and everyone flies with AIm-9L because these are the only normal missiles, Sparrows have been nerfed so many times that they are absolutely useless. The last time I tried to shoot down a bot on a MiG-15 with them and the Sparrows couldn’t keep up with him.
AIM-7Fs are fine my F4J has no problem
then get good. im using the mig23 ml and it gets about a kill per game, just stop being dumb and dying to aim7p/m’s
Hornet is supremely popular and so is f4s, mig21bison and mirage f1c are also fairly popular.
I’m currently playing on the F/A-18A and these sparrows are just awful. They are very slow, constantly flying somewhere to the side, the capture itself is constantly broken. It is very difficult to use them in a frontal attack.
Lmao what? It has pretty standard loadout for BLUFOR plane at this BR.
I assume you mean sparrows, and beside 7Ps, these are pretty much best SARH non-russian/chinese planes can get.
Im gonna assume that by “MiG-23ML has all-aspect missiles” you refer to R-60Ms, but you cant possibly think R-60Ms are better than 9Ls.

is pay2win right now, should been at br13. But it will get nerfed same as other premiums, now gajin made this low br intentionaly so they can sell many planes. Ppl never learn.
have you considered that maybe sarh missiles arent a “i win” for headons…?
most missiles joust end with both sides defeating the other’s missiles and thats when the merge starts
I have long abandoned planes on Sparrows because they are useless. They have been nerfed so many times that these missiles have turned into useless firecrackers. If before there was a point in using Sparrows because they did not go into traps, now in addition to the fact that you have to constantly re-aim the missile at the target, it can also fly anywhere. What the gaijin did with this missile is a mockery.
Now the Mig-23 has R-23, these are very good missiles, how many times I was shot down with them, Ooooh. These missiles do not react to your traps, they are very fast, these R-23s caught up with me when I was flying at full speed in an F-111F. But the Sparrows are missiles that should be left in the hangar and not loaded onto the aircraft.
