F111a getting new missile

decompression is good but youve already shown you only really care about its speed, which would be top of the line, so even with decompression you or others might still want it to go up.

I would suggest you reread this entire exchange again and work out why that speed is a problem relative to the environment you would encourage it be in. However, I fear I would be sorely disappointed by your comprehension skills.

in the end its still going to be limited by how fast the 111F can go on the deck or near it (structurally) for the most part. it will just accelerate better. which is why 11.0 with a vulcan would be fine. you will only really feel it at higher altitudes. there will always be a fastest attacker and there should still be a way to beat MiG-23 base bombers

it would be cool if we could get this too

but it might be pushing it

not to mention, there is a MiG-23BN at 9.7 but i dont see you complaining about that even though it is very very fast. there is a 1.3 BR difference between a MiG-23 (even MiG-27 attacker version) with AAM and MiG-23BN with only guns. look at the full 1.0 difference between the A-10A late and A-10C for 9L to 9M, with these examples 11.0 is a very generous BR and 10.7 is more in line with them

its also frustrating to geat beaten by F-104 fighter in base bombing

And so he plays against the Soviet MiG-23 and Phantoms, which easily overtake him.

In 100% of cases, the F-111A will never make it to the base. You will always be at the end, MiG-23s, Phantoms, etc., will go tens of kilometers ahead of you. You have no speed, no missiles, no weapons. This plane is among the top most terrible planes in the game.

The reason why the F111A is at 10.7 is before they ruined it’s flight model, it was a cracked dogfighter. UFO levels dogfighter. You only needed the Vulcan. Now it flies like a brick, so yea it’s missiles should be upgraded.

@Morvran.

Sounds familiar, innit?

Man, these MiG-23ML really are troublemakers. :|

And it’s the exact opposite for the SU-24M needing its R-73’s because of its lack of speed compared to its counterparts.

I think that the MiG-23 ML should have its napalm taken away. These aircraft are faster than all attack aircraft and even jet fighters.

I specifically played the F-111A and the F-4C, which is 0.7 below the F-111A, and the F-4C is superior to the F-111A in everything, it has better speed, it has better missiles, better maneuverability, and after dropping bombs on the base, the F-4C does not fly to the airfield but enters into an air battle as a full-fledged fighter.

You’re forgetting the fact of: Crappy engines, No Agile Eagle, AND NO FLARES.

The F-4C is twice as fast as the F-111A. You don’t need flares, just fly over the ground. The F-4C has great engines that pick up speed as quickly as possible, unlike the F-111A, which starts picking up speed when it approaches the middle of the map.

Are you using stat card or actual experience? “just fly over the ground” Yea that’s what planes do. If you mean low to the ground, IR missiles don’t care. IR missiles are literally 99% of all missiles being launched at you at 10.0. You really have never spaded the F-4C haven’t you.

  • Weapons are always decided for Balance reasons

  • Gaijin intentionally chose not to give better missiles to the F-111As

  • few armarments, especially at high BR aircraft are Historically accurate because of Balance

They gave napalm to multirole jets that equipped it IRL because realism matters more than artificial nerfs.

I’d love to hear about even one service vehicle in War Thunder the manufacturer explicitly states cannot fire the munition.

Manufacturers Usually Don’t talk about the features their Products don’t have

it would be Irrational to state such as the Manufacturer

if we Require Official Exclusion of a Weapon to prove that a Said vehicle cannot use such then I want Brimstone and AiM-120C5 on my Spitfire MK 24 as the Manufacturer never said it can’t carry the latter ammunition

Here’s a replay from today on F4C. I was the first to arrive at the base and got 2 more frags when I returned to the field.

Twice as slow* as the F-111A.
F-111A has superior engines and a higher top speed.

It’s a lot smaller and lighter too

This is why they should add a fast F-111F with the maximum amount of stripped equipment to keeps it’s BR low and mach number high
