Is the A-10 too weak for 10.7?

A10 has a better overall airframe imo. The su25 has much better speed but i find the a10 much easier to use/fight other planes with. Su25k gets good rockets but you cant really use the kh25s due to having no zoom. The a10 is higher because it has a better gun, better aams and much longer range air-ground missiles.

I could see the su25k going to 10.3 in ground rb but i think it should be lower than the tech tree a10

Tell your team to space out if this is the case.

isn’t it also being put at the currently maximum BR of 12.7

Yeah, currently 12.7. It also has 4 missiles with a max range over 10km so i am not sure how they would be getting 6 kills from over 12km away

I think the A-10 is fine ISH.

It’s loadout is about right for the BR but it could do with some tweaks. Like moving the air spawn back a bit or a bit lower. I snipe them all the time with the Stormer HVM.

The AGMs it has are short range, and Vs most SAMs you are a relatively easy kill if you aren’t paying attention.

The only real shame of the A-10 is that you are at a BR where the gun isn’t really usable. Could be interesting to get an A-10 with no guided weapons at a much lower BR. Like 9.0.

10 kills! The Strela and Ozelot, BMPs and T-72 must be all noobs, I mean why they didn’t just dodge the bombs right?? Especially the T-72, it should have seen the A-10 launching missiles from 8km away and use lrf to shoot it down!

careful, don’t get your knickers in a bunch over your CAS hatred.

there’s a reason I said it shouldn’t go down in BR. My friend did that before the BR split for GRB.

They buff the mavericks, guess the time will tell

It doesn’t work that well. The Strela will sometimes just ignore everything you do.

The A-10 cannot lock a target at 8km away with the AGM Maverick. At best, you can sometimes get a reliable lock at 4km.

Any competent AA can make the A-10 into a sitting duck, but sometimes you just end up lucky and they don’t know what they’re doing.

Huh? You can lock up to 9km (vehicle lock) with 65Ds on clear weather.

The YA-9, perhaps? With the 30mm it was supposed to end up getting? That’d be fun

Not RB related, but you can get the A-10 at 6.7 in GAB.

I’m not sure about the late, but the Early one struggles.
