J-7D. The most broken plane at this time

After the sales, the compete 10.0-11.3 matchmaking ruined by J-7D-s.
10.7 the same BR as the Mig21 SMT/MF with 4 usless R-60s, 11.0 Mig-21bis with 6 fireworks 60M.
the chinese missiles are OP at this tier and the flight performance is just a little bit worse than a mig21bis
Gajin thinks its fine? F-5C with 2aim9e, A-5C 2 magic, saabJ35xs are the same value?
you cannot grind anything

F4C having to fight them for years no flares

What baffles me the most is that there are still people trying to argue that the F-5C can outturn J-7D, which definitely isnt true. 9 out of 10 dogfights will easily be won by the J-7D, this thing is absolutely crazy. The F-5 gets an uptier in EVERY match, having to fight hordes of F-4E, Mig-23 with invisible radar missiles and J7Ds. I dont even bother with these anymore, i see them, i turn around. There is no way to catch them anyway and i dont give them a free kill.

It isn’t but the F-5 will very easily win in a dogfight due to it’s superior energy retention, and immunity to missiles. Under no circumstances should an F-5 be dying to a J-7s missiles, and it should be able to win a 1v1 as well.

The Mig-21bis is also a better plane than the J-7D, and it’s only 11.0.

That’s what most people don’t understand: Outturning is not full pull turn every time.
In F5s you have to manage your speed in every scenario.

And whining about full uptiers but thinking its fair to fight 9.7 planes in this thing is curious.

Don’t want to surprise you, but the J-7D has the same matchmaker as the F-5C. They are both 10.7.

Both are 10.7, yeah that’s the problem. J-7D is far superior to F-5C.

Why you guys compare J-7D which lose speed so fast can can’t dogfight to excellent dogfighters like F-5… All the J-7D gameplay is trying to find people who are not aware of you and fire a PL5/PL7, and if he is a bit aware he just press flare and the missile get wasted

The most broken plane at this time, is the Ayit. Nothing comes even close. It’s like the 10.0 F-8U2 situation we had not long ago but even worse.

This time last year many threads were bemoaning the very weak performance of the J7D at 11.0, always getting dunked on by MIG-29s. Now, it seems appropriately tiered to me. But what doesn’t is the F5C, which should go to 10.3 imo.

1,000%.

Yes the Ayit is broken, but rather the missiles are broken at 9.3. The plane is just a glorified A4, so the flight performance is average at the rank.

But the J-7D have OP missiles and the almost the best flight performance at 10.7, and you cannot grind…way more people play with them like the Ayit

The ayit has better FM for 9.3 than the J-7D has to 10.7
