I don’t think this joke is funny. The aircraft with the lowest BR carrying the same type of ammunition is the 11.7 A10C. Other attacker carrying the same type of ammunition have a minimum of 12.3.

It’s probably safe to assume the weapons/BRs are not final because they have changed several times in the past few days.
2 PL-5EIIs would put it at 12.0 IMO, with the JH-7A carrying 4 at 12.3.

Yeah i cant imagine the JH-7 being basically a far better Jaguar IS only for a .3 BR but that money is strong lol
Always remember JagIS with 2*mgc2 is at 11.3

or Su-25BM with 2x R-73 + 2x R-60M at 11.0 (while Su-25SM3 with only 2x R-73 is 11.7 for no reason)
Jh7 is tech tree, jh7a prototype is premium after they realized jh7 gets like no guided ground ordinance
I couldn’t remember if it was A or not thats being added lmao

Jh7 is being added to tech tree (originally was supposed to come as premium) but they bailed when they realized it had no guided ground ordinance so instead they just added copy paste jh7a as premium and moved jh7 to tt
Su-25BM would like a word.
The SU-25 is a Russian aircraft.
I think they made a mistake when duplicating stuff for the “new” aircraft. The JH7 with PL5EII should be only the 12.3 one. It’s essentially a better Mirage F1C. Might even be too strong for 12.3, we’ll see.
so…
because it’s russian it doesn’t count???
You’re also forgetting the Jaguar IS, Su-39 and Su-25T.
I am going to say though, I don’t believe a supersonic platform with decent agility should sit at 11.3 with IRCCM missiles, especially when the current JH-7A with the PL-8 and PL-5C sits at 12.3

11.0 SU25BM (2R73)
11.3 Jaguar IS (2MagicII)
11.3 SU25T/SU39 (2*R73)
I think the JH-7A should probably move to 11.7 with its 2*PL5EII, but its still a radar-missile-less bomb sled similar to the tornado and SU24
The JH-7A is receiving 4*PL5EII this update along with the premium one

I would like to point out that the Harrier GR.7 is at 12.3 with 4 AIM-9Ms on a harrier platform, I would advocate for it to move down.
I think I’ve found myself a bit uneducated on this topic, is it remaining 12.3?
Or what’s the point of this thread saying 11.3.
If it’s staying 12.3 it should be fine
So as it stands, the weaker non-guided ground kit JH-7 (an “early” version of the JH-7A) currently has 2*PL5EII at 11.3. Pretty decent, but thats its only air to air capacity, its gun is mounted extremely awkwardly, and its essentially a worse version of the F5T (HMD, bonkers FM and 2 python3. Not to mention the EEGS and pure perfect guns for the platform)
The JH-7 should be fine at 11.3 on release, though compared to others it could definitely see 11.7
The Tornado series is more suitable for comparison with the JH7 series. Both are supersonic attack aircraft and both have certain air-to-air capabilities. JH7 has better mobility than Tornado, but its gun is worse. The BR of Tornado IDS MFG and JH7 is both 11.3, but the Tornado with the same level AAM as JH7 is Tornado GR4, which is located at BR12.3. The BR of JH7A and Tornado GR4 is both 12.3, and the performance of AAM is also similar. However, currently, JH7A has twice as many AAM as Tornado.
I guess everyone forgot about the M2KD-RMV at 12.7 with 2 magic 2s and no internal gun
