Also Tiger why not show clips of your skill playing the Viggen since you think its undertiered?
Already done by others.
Compare its stats with other Swedish planes of rank 6-8 and you will see what I mean.
A whopping KD of 1.6 and KB of 1.23. We have to consider the fact that the JA37, being a tech tree vehicle, have stock grinding that affects it’s performance.
Again play it yourself lol, cause you also say the XS is terrible yet i can do far better than you and most XS players while in the F-35
I don’t care if you can do better than me and other players. I have never been the one to proclaim I’m some elite player.
You and my stats are sand on the beach. It is the collective stats that matters, and it shows that J35XS is not performing that well.
0.83KB, 1.02KD for the J35XS (October 2025)
These are decent stats as far as premium planes goes, but still, it’s pretty average and does not show the plane to be particularly good or OP.
Or that you’re average premium player is a level 6 noob who has no idea how to fly other than base bomb which is why the XS went to 11.3 as people were rocket bombing
Rocket bombing has largely stopped so we’re seeing the “true” stats. Also base bombing reduce the stats of planes by about 0.25
We also see a lot of noob players hear its OP and expecting the vehicle to play itself lol
I think you are clearly misunderstanding what a delta-wing is.
or Difference between Tailed delta (MiG-21 style), Tailess delta(Mirage style) and Double delta(Draken style)
What in the world plane with 6 AIM-9P in 10.3BR can’t be particularly good?
Mirage 5BA, SAAB F-35 are stuck with two and share the same 10.3BR with J35XS.
Anyway, I think we all need to go back to why JA37C isn’t undertiered.

6x aim 9p and flares is a nice package for 10.3, indeed.
But it’s hampered by some factors
- The airframe is poor, forcing slow speed fights
- The plane has bad endurance; fuel load (if you want drop tank you will need to sacrifice missiles) and its CMs are low. You will likely be running back to base before your missiles run out
- It is practically always uptiered
- People avoid flareless planes and the flareless planes (F-4C, Mirage, Su-17, F-105D etc) tend to be pretty fast, able to outmaneuver (in high speed) and avoid the J35XS
- There are couple of airframes that can tackle the J35XS; Hunter, F-1 etc.
- It doesn’t have guns. It has a gun. A single 30mm DEFA.
The J35XS fills a niche that if down tiered to 9.3, it can go Rambo on early supersonics which are like trucks and have slow acceleration (SMB2, F100)
The “scary” J35XS people imaging as, has R-60Ms instead of Aim-9P. Now that would be OP.
