J35XS only have AIM-9P’s (RB24J), 12 Flares/Chaffs, 20min of fuel and only 120 bullets in your gun at 11.0 (in Air RB). You face AIM-7F’s, R-73 with IRCCM (Su-39 11.7) with a Jet Fighter that only have 12 Flares. Gaijin pls fix it.

10.3 might be too low for 6x AIM-9P.
J35D which has 4 AIM-9P fits on 10.3BR too.
Erm… 10.7 might be better than 10.3 though

So you’d have it at the same BR as the F-4C?
I’d be okay with it dropping to 10.7. 10.3 however feels a bit too low. 9.3’s would really struggle against it.

Yeah, 10.3 might be too low but J35D has the same payload at 10.3 and with one more 30mm cannon with 200 bullets, there’s no sense up 0.7 of BR cause two more missiles.
10.7 imo makes sense, given its basically a slight upgrade over the D variant (12 flares and two more missiles in exchange for 1 less cannon)
10.3 would be too low since it would be facing stuff at 9.3 with no countermeasures, nor the speed to even catch it when it gets a full downtier. The Ayit at 9.3 Isreal, Buccaneer S.2 are the only subsonic planes at 9.3 that I know of which could somewhat defend itself from its missiles since they get countermeasures… Everything else either has the speed to do something about them, or would just be XP pinatas for it (looking at the poor Italians who cant even catch the Ayit on the speed end).
Since 10.3 would be too low, as if he had a downtier, the 9.3’s would struggle, it would be nice to it to be at 10.7, this plane at 11.0 it’s really a struggle, you fight against AIM-7F’s and R-73, it’s quite unbalanced.
Meanwhile the F4EJ and F5E:
Who says F-4C is at the right BR?
Ok, J35XS at the same BR as a F-104J? As a F-105? Lower BR than Mirage 3E? Lower BR as F-104Ghina?
