GB Jet grind: Harrier or TT Planes?

I have GB tree up to tier 5, I have wyvern and harrier as some sort of “grinder”. is GB jet that bad that I better off uses Harrier to Grind or is there a “sweet spot” in GB jet that is not tier 8 that allow me to take a break from spamming harrier?

britain doesnt get a good overall jet until the CF-188

even base bombing with vark is dubious at best? damn

vark can get bases but youre always fighting the mig23ml lobotomites for them. britain suffers bad from overtiering and extreme compression with jets until the hornet and gripen

stick with harrier then?

I love harrier but its modelling is just horrible. probs the best option until the hornet still tbh

Scimitar is a fairly good option at 8.7 outrunning everyone at 8.7 fairly easily. Lightning isn’t that bad I think too. The other 8.0-9.0 just suck in my experience besides maybe the venom cause it’s way faster than the vampire

Canberra is quite fun

Bucs and Jags can be fun, but can be fiddly to do consistently well in either

Hunter F6 is quite decent now SRAAMs have been fixed.

Lightning can be okay, but I’m not a fan of the play style. So might suite you just fine.

Going into Rank 8. Tonka Gr4 is actually quite fun at the moment…needs some buffs but a lot more consistent than the Gr1

Terrible idea now that every match starts with an airspawn.
Recently spaded the FRS.1e. It’s late coming in and much too often at a flight performance disadvantage.
Idk about the gen 2s but gen 1 harriers I’d rather just avoid.
The matchmaker is mostly topped at 11.3 and 12.7/13.0. If you’ve nothing to cover those spots ( britain only has a few either premiums or event vehicles there) you’re in for a rather bad time.

For Rank 5
You can try Canberra for a mindless grind in rank 5

At Rank 6
You can give it a try
-Lightning F.6 which doesn’t see either F-5C or J-7D but bit worse than F-104A(Debatable)
-TT version Harrier (Harrier GR.3), which is good for fragging flareless jets with AIM-9G, but faces those 10.7BR bastards

In rank 7
I used Talismaned Tonka GR.1 when it had the good old time
But maybe using either one of
-Tornado F.3 (12.0)
-F-111C
-MiG-21 Bison (DON’T BUY IT WITH REGULAR PRICE)
will be better

Because Tonka GR.1 is now doomed because of MiG-23 gangs.
