It also runs out faster, so it’s kind of whatever you prefer. The guns aren’t better than one another and guns hardly make up kills at 11.0.
True its no secret that gaijin doesnt like israel
Also dont forget that gaijon wants to sell the f16 netz over the kfir

I’ll probably get the Netz on sale
Or I might pick up the T28 or Super Hellcat.
As israel main i dont reccomend it
Its not very good on 12.7
If it get downtierd then yea
Also u have alot of time to wait until it gonna be on sale cuz its new
I did say I’d get it on sale. I never buy at full price and I only buy anything in WarThunder when saving up gradually throughout the year.
how does a high fire rate make something easier to aim?

Less of a gap between rounds when at high speeds. It means that the MiG-21 has a tighter kill area when strafing enemies in fights.

personally I just time my shots better ig
Sometimes, your best bet when flying past an enemy is to shoot in front of them and hope one hits. During this situation, the Mig’s guns are better, and I’ve lost kills in the Kfir because the gap in my full auto bursts is large enough that some people get lucky and slip through.
I guess, I just like 30mms and don’t like the russian 23mms
I’m not a big fan of Russian aircraft guns in general lol
They run out of ammunition far too fast for my liking. The Vulcan is where its at for me.
the 20mms on the later yak 3s and 9s are good fun
but yeah thats basically it
I like the Russian Helicopter guns, but I’m not a fan of small ammunition counts.
The Kfir Canard is the fastest bomber at its BR 2nd to none.
It has decent flight performance and 2 AIM-9Gs as well.
The Mig-21Bis has a reduced speed and is primarily a fighter. R-60Ms mean nothing in the front aspect to flare-equipped aircraft.
If you’re treating a strike aircraft incorrectly labeled “fighter” as primarily a fighter, you do you, but it’s BR’d because people use it in multi-role far more often and so should you.

sure at 11.0 you are but thats only like half the games, at 11.3 and 11.7 you get very outsped by F104S and Mig23MLD when you’re carrying bombs
Using the aircraft as a bomber not only wastes its potential, but other fighter aircraft are not treated this way. F-104 Starfighters at 9.3 constantly Napalm bomb points and take bases from Strike Aircraft. It’s also worth noting that bombing in a Kfir Canard is a good way to get teamkilled and mocked on the forums.
The Mig-21 has better missiles and more of them with similar flight performance.
They’re more meaningful than inferior AIM-9G.
This plane is wasted on bombing.
When Kfir Canard has a drop tank equipped, F-104S is tied with it.
And I think you mean Mig-23ML, not MLD, cause no one’s unlocking a rank 4 napalm on Mig-23s to napalm with them. Of course they need to be on your team and there needs to be 4 of them.
@Just_Baron
Fighters are treated that way. And Israel made the aircraft for strike missions.
Also R-60Ms are not objectively better, if you prefer them that’s fine, but AIM-9G’s longer range both in literal range and flare-resistance range makes them easier to use.
On top of all that, I haven’t seen a teamkiller frag a bomber in months at this point. Fighters yes, bombers no.
Also, if you’re letting shame dictate how you want to play that sounds dishonest with yourself.
You and your decisions are yours alone. I’ll support your playstyle regardless of my agreement or disagreement.
As I said “You do you.” if you want to play it as a fighter; I only offered the way people are playing it that cause it to be 11.0 flat.
The reason I don’t have the Kfir Canard is cause I didn’t want another bomber.
And I’ll agree with you that F-5E FCU is probably under-bR’d.

a drop tank or enough bombs to kill a base
you are correct but also I really wouldn’t be surprised to see it happen
A drop tank and 1 bases of bombs, the base of bombs was implied.

After 3 games trying the minimum payload to destroy one base, I can say with confidence that you are still slower than an F-104S while bombing.
