Genuinely if the Gripen is the only one that goes to 12.7 though i will laugh my ass off.
And go back to trolling people with my Harrier, shoving 9Ms up everyones Tailpipe.

Christ how… just how. I could understand it maybe if he had R-73s, but then…
you know what forget it i cant actually cooe with the level of incompetence required to achieve that result.
They are just too use to steam rolling everything they encounter, that when they encounter someone who can fight back, they dont know what to do. Probably saw I was only in the Tornado and figured, easy kill.
That literally doesn’t justify how anyone forgot “hmmm yes, a missile approaches, let me mash my flare key a bit”
I guess he figured one his spammed missiles would hit, the fact I somehow managed to evade them all and get within my own weapons range was rather surprising, first time i’ve ever seen an R-27ER affected by mutlipathing, they usually travel straight and true
I’m at a loss, granted I’m a wee bit under the influence but even my brain can’t handle that. Be back in about 8 hours to check the spelling and punctuation on my Chally rant over in Brit Tanks.
Just how. WT players never cease to amaze.

What evidence is there that the first Gripen FM that went live was even close to accurate?
To me it just sounds like people are coping that their plane went from being the best dog fighter in the game by a long margin…to being the best dog fighter in the game by a narrower margin.
Britain cannot have good vehicles in War Thunder, just take a look at the Challenger 2’s threads

I’m actually a Gripen pilot and I can 100% say the old flight model was accurate. Gaijin please give me back my UFO

Nah, its still insanely fun to fly, still insanely maneuverable and mainly, its survivalbility is still really high. Overall most fun jet to fly out of F15A/Su27 and Gripen. I cant tell about Mirage4000, still quite far from rank VIII in french TT.

The mirage is fun, 8 magic 2s makes it quite competitive. But it’s far from having a broken FM or else like the gripen

I mean as if anyone with half a brain didn’t see this coming.
With no second dev server, the planes were rushed out the door prior to Christmas with their unfinished FMs. The nerfs for the Gripen were based on appropriate evidence so it is what it is.
I’ve flown the F-15 and J-11 for a small number of matches and they honestly feel fine. The only thing I thought was that the F-15s roll was a bit sluggish but aside from that, perfectly usable, competitive and fun.

What is broken on gripen? They nerfed it according to bug report. Apparently its supposed to be 1.43-1.45 times better in envelope than viggen. If you apply that to vigens EM chart, it matches is pretty damn well. Your UFO FM is subjective opinion based on feel and no data whatsoever.

cas players cried too much
its incredible that the flight of the gripen, f15 and j-11 are discussed and argued based on vibes
In M&K it feels like the best FM of the game and some aspect of it feels strange (feels like it’s lacking some AoA sometimes, LEF are retracted most of the times, it prolly has the best energy retention in the whole game etc, it’s the best aircraft in a pure 1v1 guns only…
And??? There will be ALWAYS one jet that will be best in one area. It happens its Gripen now… not russian or american jet for once. And more will come, european designs will rule in the future if done properly and without 5th gen introduction.
As a European if I could see my nation shine I’d be quite happy, but right now If I have to fly a UFO I’d rather have an other plane, that matches more correctly what it can do irl.
Then why not add the Rafalé with 90+ ° of alpha and 9000 kgf engines, far from realistic but could be the case…
Will be hard to deny if you don’t speak French 🙃

The thrust is incorrect;

The lack of instability modeling;

Nose should want to pitch, bleed energy rapidly if you do so as the Su-27’s does. Thrust is grossly overperforming currently.
