Well, there’s the Mirage IIIS, which is a unique variant (other radar, CM’s, Canards, SARH missiles). F/A-18 should be almost identical to the Hornets we have but either with AIM-9P-5 or AIM-9X. Tiger similarly, not much new, but capable of carrying the 9P-5 (as well as the Mirage too)…
Guess Mirage IIIS would be the least copy/paste one of the lot…
These are quite far stretches except 9X. The rest either have to be heavily compensated with unrealistic performance or OP, some of these will unemploy ARH missiles.
While that is an acceptable alternative for some players, it is not acceptable nor a solution for me. I do not like Realistic Battles, for land, sea, or air. I just love playing Arcade, for the entire 10 years that I have been playing War Thunder. I have tried RB modes on and off over the years; I simply do not like or enjoy playing RB. So, Naval Arcade being ruined = Naval ruined for me, sadly.
If the Iowa class has even their ww2 fire control systems theyll make the other ships redundant and the yamato is going to be tanky and anoying to fight.
