i heard the av8b is good for nuclear escalation but how good is he? like what is the best strategy or usage and can it be good for arb and bombing bases
and is there any tips for how to use it
It’s not as good in ARB as it is in NE. Best way to play it is to use it for SEAD in NE. Take the 4 AGM-154A-1 JSOW’s and launch them at the SAM sites first and then at either the airfield SPAA or depot SPAA.
When there’s no more stationary targets you could then take 4 AGM-65F’s to try and hit the convoys.
Before buying anything, remember that the next week there are sales, since the NA is a GE premium it will also be 50% off, so if you have a boucher no need to rush it.

Great for sim or NE, kind of is incredibly mid for anything else. It’s like buying the Su-39
I wouldn’t get it, just wait for F-20 or F-5 sale if you want US air tree. Or get a lower rank plane and go up from there.
Don’t ever FOMO anymore as now gaijin is regularly rotating sales of old vehicles and half off stuff. Just wait for the sale you actually want
