Kfir Canard - 11.0 with 9.7 weaponry

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.

I meant you shouldn’t defend yourself bombing in Kfir

  • Because it is historically developed from nesher, which was strike aircraft
  • while Gaijin classified it as a jet fighter.
  • and IDF used it as their best fighter jet before they bought F-15.

When you defend yourself bombing in F-15E

  • Because Gaijin classified it as strike aircraft
  • While it was historically developed from F-15, which was an air dominance fighter.

at the same time.

I am not attacking ‘bombing’ itself but critiquing your double standard.

Why do you bomb in a J-7D, F-16A, F-15J, and EFT when it was designed as a fighter

Easiest way to grind. Simple as. Not everyone wants to grind by fighting.

I’d like to make a disclaimer that I am not against bombing per se. Tiger tank 1 is just a massive hypocrite because they measure performance on whether an aircraft can kill a base or not. To the point where they would rather call the F-16A overtiered becaus eit can’t bomb better

yes and no on the strike aircraft comment. the Kfir was classified as a fighter until the C.7 (i think) which became a strike craft due to the f16, f15 took over that role

You could have complained about: its low countermeasure amount, the lack of radar or the chitty rwr or even the fact that it faces 12.0s very often, but you decide to complain about the 2 9Gs?.. damn

bro thinks napalm isworth being a balancing factor.

As a joke, I want to see it become a balanced factor and Tonka gets some shameless buff :P

Honestly, I just can’t get why he is obsessed too much about the bombing capability of ‘fighter jets’…

Well, bombing capability can be a good extra feature when using it for mindless grinding
But unlike strike aircraft, fighters also can grind well via A2A dogfight… :|

Brimstone at 10.7 with its actual capability and not agm65 with braindamage would be pretty good but I firmly think any of that guys opinions on aircraft are to be discarded due to his inability to PTFO over farming lazy xp from bomber bases

Mig 29 should be 10.3 because it gets R-60m’s

strikemaster should be reserve tier as it only has 7 7.62 machine guns stock

Eurofighter should be 3.3 because it has a radar.

Venom FB4 should be 3.0 because it has hispano

F-18 should be 1.0 because bombs

Honestly the Kfir Canard, Gderot, C.1, whatever you wanna call it, is quite a good aircraft. I have a 3.7KD in it right now. Usually I just bomb 1 base first, then pick people off with 9G’s whom are unaware. If they are aware, then you can just easily dogfight them and gun them down, at least that’s what I do. Only problem I have with dogfighting with it is with F-5’s. In the end it’s a Mirage III evolution, a fighter, who can now do multirole but is still fighter focused.

How does it perform engine and manueverability wose, when compared to Bis?

your only problem being an F5 is not a surprise with how much they overperform.

testament to how amazing the plane is

I cannot say as I do not own a Bis, but it does accelerate quickly, depending on load ofc

Unfortunately, not on a trackpad. It’s almost impossible to aim with this. That’s why I wish it had more/better missiles.
