Originally I was going to buy the Kfir Canard on sale next sale to grind the Israel air tree for those top tier American jets. But now I’m considering buying the premium Mirage next sale and grinding out the French tree; as I can still get the main jet I was trying to get, being the F16 along with the Rafale and Mirage series. What tree do you think I should go for?
Ima be honest, Israel is not the best air tree to go with. Besides top tier, the tree is incredibly stale, but if you want top tier super fast (not worth it IMO), Israel is pretty okay, as the Kfir Canard is pretty good. I personally got to top tier within 3 weeks using the Kfir Canard, granted I was bombing (level 16 shenanigans).
As for the French air tree, its pretty good overall, with many vehicles to choose from across all of its tiers, but the Mirage F1C is pretty meh. If used well the Magic 2’s are 2 free kills, but aside from that the F1C isn’t great.
TLDR Kfir is more fun, has a worse air tree. Mirage is less fun, has a better air tree.
France has a more unique air tree so I would recommended because of that reason alone. The only planes on note in the Israeli tree are the Ayit and Kurnass 2000. If all you care about is the F-16 I’d still recommend the French F-16s more than the Israeli once, despite the Baz with the 6 pythons being fun.
In general you get way more value out of a purchase that can grind out the larger French tree. But it ultimately depends on your preferences and what you care about playing the most.
As someone whos spent way to much on this game. I’m top tier in both isreal and france. The rafale is awesome and 100% worth grinding. Mt favorite top tier jet. Isreal the barak 2 f16 is good. I just unlocked the f15i raam using the kfir.
The kfir doesnt have all aspect missles, and you willil face jets with them every game. It was a hard grind. But worth it for their top tier f15 and f16
I’d recommend France as they have a more interesting and unique tree. The mirage 2000C is also incredibly good at 12.7, and is a source of much of my recent fun in game
The Italian tree wouldn’t be a bad option either, it’s got an assortment of good top tier air contenders. Relatively shorter to grind. It’s only caveat it’s is grinders are limited to the ariete, the amx a1 a, and the f104 taf (amx a1 a is actually pretty decent)
TAF is not available now
It wasnt the best, but that sucks. Its pretty good at sim grinding
