give the i-225 a interceptor air spawn in air rb since it was actually a interceptor
Sure, do you want it at 6.0 br or 6.3 br? which one, no other BRs will be accepted.
Historically speaking, the MiG I-225 and other variations of the MiG I-200 were made with this sole purpose to intercept reconnaissance airplanes such as Ju-86P, so is technically realistic as it’s labeled as interceptor in-game even being considered as high altitude fighter,
However, giving the air spawn to such low battle rating airplane would require the same feature to be give to all other interceptors in-game, at the start of the match, higher altitudes in lower battle rating matches matters as bombers tend to be weaker and airplanes spawning in the airfield doesn’t have engine nor is able to catch up a plane at 7 000 meters or more.
For further reading I suggest you these links which go deeper in information about the MiG I-200 series:
If it gets a proper interceptor air spawn, there is no way that it stays 5.0BR.
I don’t dislike your idea itself if it is really historically worked as an interceptor, but are you ready to face the consequences?
I think that air spawns should be given for balancing reasons rather than for historical reasons, otherwise American fighters should realistically start at mid to high altitude lol. So as others have said, unless it gets dramatically uptiered, absolutely no reason for it.
i am curious about that prop, it looks funny , how good is it in real battles?
Air spawns for anything but bombers should have been removed from the game when we got seperate brs for ground and air, and everything readjusted accordingly.
Sure it very fast. 6.0
Same goes for j7w and ki 87. Good guns, bad airframes mean they’re just ground pounding or head on machines.
very strong, probably counts as OP
Sure. Looking forward to all the Spitfires and hurricanes getting air spawn too by that logic
MEC works wonders for this plane and it possesses a competitive climbr ate and good high-alt performance that an airspawn wouldn’t really matter.
Or is this a 4D chess maneuver/cope post to try and nerf it?
hmmm i dont know, i bought xp50 thinking it was going to be op monster according to this forum and reddit, and its alright but nothing to write home about, and pretty boring to fly, i prefer the p51d20 actually.
so idk, very big grain of salt on people saying X=OP
Key word: USED
It USED to be OP because of its performance, maneuverability, and airspawn. 4.3 was a consistent sight of XP-50 players being in 6.7km-7.5km+. It’s main weakness was control stiffening which was hard to exploit against a good XP-50 player, but truth be told I’ve only found a handful of them during my tenure in the 109 F4 and G2.
That thing climbs very fast (20.8m/s) for its br so giving it an airspawn is not necessary
oh it had an airspawn? i only started recently, i didnt know. Now i understand the crazy things people said about it lol, i still think its fun to fly and the speed is good, but its very stale, boring plane and ammo ammount is eh
yes i also am shocked to learn it had one, it climbs like a rocket for its br
It’s still very strong, you are pretty much guaranteed to be above everyone else, are very good at high altitude, and are also pretty maneuverable.
people go bananas over this aircraft’s climb rate, and will laugh at users that ask for an air spawn. But it was, indeed, a high alt interceptor. Such is the J7W1 too and they refuse to give it airspawn either.
I225 is a great aircraft, it’s just NOT meant for furballs.
do you really think this plane is 5.0 worthy at all?
It’s only issues are bad temp and high speed lockup, it rolls still good enough at high speed and you can easily pull out with full real controls, which means this plane does not compress as badly, it’s just castrated by the instructor.
Man, I just stated it as 5.0BR, because nothing but it is currently 5.0BR.
What I meant was ‘if it gets air spawn, it cannot stay what it is on now.’
I think you misread my reply :/
