Remind me of the J35D at 10.7 for years then when the all aspect slingers and PD slingers were added it had nothing going for it. Wasnt fast and turning only helps if you can close the Gap. Honestly im happy i skipped the F104J on germany. The Mig 23BN was joy to me as a dogfighter before they nerfed the FM. Regardless the Bis Sau is still fun thoigh not what it once was on germany.
Just gotta get past the 104 and the TT gets a lot better depending on the BR
The Flanker series is known for their low-speed high AOA performance, yet in game if you get a Flanker to fly slow and point their nose around they instantly fall out of the sky.
Most FMs in War Thunder only “adhere” to turn rate graphs but the way the aircraft match their graphs is incorrect. For example, the AL-31s produce too much thrust and Gaijin had to compensate by adding much more wing/fuselage drag, and that’s the reason why the Flankers suck so much at retaining energy.
So yes, how new aircraft will perform in terms of flight performance is completely up to Gaijin’s interpretation.
Im hoping, they just gave sweden the JA37Di so ive got my fingers crossed my home nations jet is a TT addition. Knowing gaijin they’ll probably just add Denmark to Germany since they keep asking for it just for the F16AM.
Im currently Grinding entire Chinese tree and on Air section my goal is to reach J10 and JH7A, so tell me why should i grind Flankers when i can access to what i want?
Better yet not everyone has enough time to grind entire lines so saying people should grind all the lines is kinda cruel.
The entire Chinese air tree line makes little sense. J-10A should not be in the left line, instead they should split the line when you reach the J-11 and J-10A should be in a new line, and J-11A should be foldered with J-11. This would represent Chengdu aviation corp (With the J-10) and Shenyang aviation corp (with the Chinese Flankers).
Personally it also feels weird to me, right now they are adding Taiwan Mirage20005F right after J-10 which doesnt make any sense in anyway but it is what it is i guess.
Make sense, hopefully it gets discount in next days so i can buy it, i also dont understand why F20 sits at 12.7 while my Mirage2000SC5 is sitting at 12.3 with better IR missiles,MAW system and much more countermeasures(it will also recieve 112 chaff with upcoming uptade), it doesnt make any sense tbh :D
Its the easiest thing to mention, especially considering gaijins mind boggling treatment of the finnish subtree. The KV-1A has no linup. They add it to high of a BR and the armor is getting nerfed next patch despite evidence going against their current values. The KV-1B denied because germany got it so finland wont have a proper lineup ever. Where is the Niki or the Sturmi, literally they added 3 unique finish vehicles on launch. 2 planes 1 tank both in rank 1. And so far since they were added we’ve gotten 3 vehicles that are unique with another “unique” vehicle being added in a poor state next update.
Yeah considering F-16 MLU was the top dog on that line before the addition of J-10 it makes sense, but hey at least this tech tree is kinda small so i will probably reach J-10 in couple days, i just cant stop myself when i see Delta Canards :D
I’ve played both J-11 and J-10. J-10 is so much better it’s not even funny. Flankers are in such a sad state right now (especially Chinese Flankers). Hopefully J-11B or J-15 comes soon which will give me incentive to play Flankers again.
