F16XL spam issue at 12.3-13.3

Im tryna play casually in my F/A-18A, and im getting queued with many F-16XL players, and I genuienly see a huge majority of them getting 0 to 1 kills every match, some just cruise straight into battle and get shot down by an R-77 or AIM-120, or even a fox 1, simply because they just stand still.

Edit: I feel like the solution should just be that you need to get to a specific level just to grind it/buy it, this is just my hypothesis.

Happens every single time there is an event vehicle unlocked. Give it a week, will return to being full uptiers vs Su-30s soon

Wouldnt do anything.

Open player profiles on some of those F-16s and you notice these are piloted by lvl 100 players as well.

Why?

Quick and easy access to ARH capable jet that has some use in ground battles as well.

I wouldnt be surprised if significant % of all players grinded it with props and went to try their shiny new F-16 only to ponder what is that beeping, round display and why does it say LAUNCH, only for their cranium to get utterly obliterated by fakour.

SU-30 + F-16XL im out.
