More burn time means easier to see.
Also, attackers are famously overtiered, so eh
It should receive at least magic 1 (A-5C 2x magic 1, j-7D 4x magic1/pl5b. Both 10.7)
Now it’s f 4 EJ and f 104s. The kfir canard constantly get out-speed due to it’s slow acceleration, and lack of napalms. Also the rocket bombers of F-4 phantoms.
I bomb in it. I understand one of your biggest complaints is that I bomb in fighters, but this plane is a strike plane wrongly designated as a fighter.
This is the biggest skill issue I’ve ever seen, brother you need to get some help
That’s not what dictates it’s BR in Air RB mate. Also you really need to learn to properly play fighter aircraft instead of bombing in aircraft you really shouldn’t be.

That’s true, but it’s not a disadvantage, as you are launching your missile from a longer distance, meaning you are less likely tò be spotted, for example: if someone wants tò get in range on my 6’ to launch a 9J he gets usually spotted on the minimap before he can get the shot, while with 9G i can have a launch even from 5km in a side aspect, meaning that i’m invisibile on the minimap.
I tried both for countless matches and i can assure you that the 9G gets the job done more often than a 9J, if you find the missile underwhelming it’s a skill issue.
If you don’t know how to use the missiles Remember that you can still mount a 20mm Vulcan and you hvae One of the best performing plane for 11.0, instrad of complaining and creating posts in the forum
GET BETTER or you won’t enjoy any Planet in this game.
Well the main problem is in that there are only two of them
there are a lot of planes at 11.0 with only two missiles, generally they perform fine or even good
And some of them shouldn’t be, considering you have planes like J35XS with 6 missiles + IRST at 10.3 and J-7D with 4x better missiles at 10.7
That’s how gaijin “balances” vehicles by BR, not me.
J35X is also a terrible plane
Well, maybe, especially regarding it’s flare count. But 6 missiles vs 2, is very depressing outlook for the Kfir.
In 11.0, the 6-12 flare planes are gone, and more people know to flare, essentially making 2X 9G a laughing stock that are more reliably used on AI targets than else.
Glad you’re not in charge of Balancing then, otherwise the F-15E would be 10.0 because it doesn’t have Napalm

That’s how gaijin would balance a plane, not me. It’s the reason half of the starfighters are overtiered.
6 AIM 9Js don’t exactly mean anything. It’s still a fuel hungry jet that bleeds speed by looking left, with terrible missiles
That’s all delta wings. Every time I drop the bombs at the base, turn around, I literally get machine gunned by F-5s because they can turn at 1000kph and mine doesn’t.
More missiles mean more chance one of them will result in a kill, especially at higher tier where planes have way more flares and crew skill points
If you don’t bomb, you don’t need to do sharp turns, which will blow your speed at all.
when you know you are playing delta, and it’s weakness.
Why do you expose its weakness even wider?
Nothing wrong with doing it on a strike plane
Kfir canard is a re engined mirage 5, a specifically designed strike plane
Also, turning reduces chance I can be killed by a IRCCM
Yes. Kfir canard is re-engined Nesher. Still, it isn’t solely built strike aircraft, but ‘multirole-fighter’ just like earlier variants of F-4 does.
If you claim that Kfir is strike aircraft because it is refitted nesher.
Then, does Tornado ADV need to be considered as strike aircraft too, as long as it is based on Tornado IDS?
Your standards about ‘strike aircraft’ are too wide.
In your terms in this thread, which you brought for claiming Kfir as strike aircraft.
You shouldn’t defend yourself in bombing F-15E ‘because gaijin classified it as strike aircraft’ before as long as F-15E is developed from F-15 which was air-dominance fighter.
I am well aware that Gaijin’s classification is iffy, and there are some jets that are classified incorrectly.
But I don’t think Kfir need to be reclassified as an attacker, unlike Nesher, Mirage V, and MiG-27.
AFAIK, Kfir were IDF’s first line and backbone fighter jet before they bought F-15/16.

Well it depends. Have the kfir canard, based from its strike plane origin (Nesher), be re classified as anything else? The ADV is obviously a interceptor/fighter because it’s lost the ability for ground attack weaponry and is officially reclassified as such.
