LOL i remember my first time playing war thunder.
The R-27ER was THE missile to use in WT since 2022, until june 2024, but lets complain about a missile that hasnt been in the game a year yet.
People laughed at the US mains for complaining about the ER’s and people would just say " sound like a skill issue " but when its the other way around, totaly has to be the game mechanics being the issue not skill.

You have a total of 1 plane (J-8F) with FOX-3 and judging blindly by your statistics, you have not done ideally lets say, you haven fired a single AIM-120 or R-77, i hope this is bait (i felt for it)
Me when I forget about the AIM-54, AIM-9M, and multiple major updates:

Gaijin nuked the AMRAAMs maneuverability to meet the irl specs for range to target.
They should have buffed the energy slightly, but noooo
the aim-54 was only good until people realized they could turn rather than fly in a straight line, and the27er is faster than the aim 54 and would beat it to its target. The 9M is a IR for close combat, the R-73 can almost fly backwards and get kills on an off bore shot, the only difference is the smokeless motor and better IRCM than the L but still be dodged with little effort. In air RB the smokeless missile is useless because of the giant red diamond that says MSL. Those go away when the rocket motor is expends all of its fuel and the smoke goes away too.
every update with new weapons needs adaptation to play style and if after almost a year and your still not able to adapt thats a skill issue.

If I ever play the Tornado Gr4 in one of the 13.0 SB brackets. I always consider the Mig-29s with R-27ERs the far far greater threat to the F4F-ICE or Viggen DIs with AMRAAM.
Aim-9M was added technically AFTER R-73 was added.
They were going to add R-73s onto the Mig-29SMT but leave the F-16C with Aim-9Ls. The community turned around and point out how unfair this was, especially if the R-73 had any form of IRCCM (which it did)
(and the fact it still has the Aim-9L lock ranges, not its IRL lock ranges even after 18 months, shows just how rushed it was on entry and how little effort they’ve put into them since)

i refuse to play the f4f ICE… i just cant lol
Its rather OP in SB at the moment, it just slaps everything. Its main rival, the F3 Late is still at 13.3 for BS reasons
Doesnt the F3 late use AIM-120C-5?
yea but after going through 3 f-4’s in the US tree i just dont want to deal with them again. the only reason i played the f-4f was for CAS
Not yet.
But it could get that upgrade in the future (Which is why I suspect they went with the “late” instead of “AOP” modifier)
Fair enough. I know the feeling, Despite being half decent for its BR. I just cannot stand the FGR2/FG1. No idea why, but Id rather play top tier GRB than play the Phantoms at the moment

oh, i thought it was using it at the moment
Nope. 4x Aim-9Ms and 4x Aim-120Bs.
Technically also missing ASRAAMs :P
its not, aim120 is useless and russia still dominates.
BVR is basically dead now that even monkeys learned how to dodge and within visual range aim120 cannot compete against r27er and especially not against r27er + r27et combo
massive lies and cope
