I thought I did? But all do it again
The F4E has a wide array of weapons but for standard A2A having the additional missiles helps for hunting high alt targets or coming from below on hugh alt targets.
The viggen works better as a low alt fighter being able to utilize the PD and 2 radar missiles
Its just how i play them but i get similar results around 2-3 kills.
I also love the cannon and the agile eagle slats for dogfighting in my phantom ill just jettison my missiles for better performance
I think it’s 11.3 just because the Skyflashes struggle above 4km~ in most circumstances, if it had normal longer range sparrows it could definitely be 11.7 as a mig-23 equivalent, putting it at 12.0 with 9L’s makes it a straight downgrade to the Ja37D which gets BOL + the same missile kit
The plane is OP. One of the fastest, one of the best dogfighters too.
It is slower than the F-4E, and F-104. Heck, its slower than a Tornado.
Viggens have good ITR, but terrible STR and can rarely hold out in a dogfight.
They only thing it has is a PD radar and 2x Skyflash DFs, otherwise it would be a lower BR, an equivalent to something like the Mig-21bis
but it does have higher thrust weight ratio. They do actually outdogfight most stuff in the BR. Including F-5s. They’re on top of the leaderboard if MiG25s aren’t present. STR is just a sweet candy for these who eventually get third partied. ITR gets you in position instantly without even much to work on when it comes to trajectories. This is literally why real life jets eventually evolved into delta wings and thrust vectoring.
