they suck in game so its gonna be funny seeing more of them being free food for mig 15 and sabres
There are more than just those in a match, and it has a climb rate of 40 meters per second.
The Meteors are rather nice in-game, though I’ve primarily played the Mk8s due to their speed.
The Meteor F.8 (the new one is almost identical) does not suck. It’s one of the best planes I’ve flown in the Israeli air tree and the most fun. It turns like the there’s no tommorow and has great guns and great engines. It’s an amazing aircraft, although I can’t tell you much about the British ones as I haven’t played them. The Israeli one however, is spectacular and extremely effective at the BR it sits at. Even when it fights MiGs and Sabres it has a fine time dealing with them.
Great plane, but brings nothing new to the game (unless they give us a black and white camera view for distance zooming or something lmao).

Its always funny to see how in the Mig-25UB one member of the crew basically sits in the radome xD

I’m honestly happy about this. There are a few points I would like to make,
-
IMO This is a good event reward for a fair number of points.
-
IMO I would hardly count the C.10 we got as an Israeli vehicle as it is the lesser export only version.
-
IMO Israel is underserved by its TT, Premiums and event Vehicles.
-
This will expose more people to the Israeli vehicles which IMO is a good thing.
I’m excited for it even though I have every Israeli vehicle unlocked.

the israeli ones are basically the same as late British ones.
They are kicked to death by boom and zooming superior, newer fighters all the time so just arent fun to play. It can turnfight but only morons try to do that at such a high BR
Of all the planes that existed, this is definitely one of them. For a nation that is already 99% copy paste, one more won’t make it much worse…

Anyone who says Israel is 99% copy paste clearly hasn’t played enough of it.
There are a ton of Israel specific mods to existing weapons platforms. Most of what you may consider as copy paste behaves differently than its counterparts.
It’s still quite potent and more than capable of dealing with those fighters. Even when they have an energy advantage, so long as I has enough energy I can play my cards well enough to survive their attacks. It’s a really great aircraft, easily the best 8.0 I’ve personally played. Although I heard that one 8.0 MiG-15 was pretty rad.

Sure some are unique modifications but how will this one be different in war thunder?

If only it didn’t turn to an 11.3 at 13.0 after launching its Fakours…

I didn’t say this vehicle wasn’t copy paste. That has yet to be seen. I took issue with the Israeli TT being called 99% copy paste.
imo the mirage 2000 was even better

They also could have added the Meteor NF.11 with Fireflash AAMs
Or the Sea Venom FAW.22 with 2 Firestreaks, better radar, an improved engine and rocket assists takeoff boosters

What’s with the afterburning Meteor on the banner image? What is this, 2014 War Thunder all over again?

Artistic dramatic license.
At least this one isn’t as interesting as the other possible candidates, guess I’m sticking to grinding it lazily. Past that free break for everyone else
well that’s boring
