The su27 fm got nerfed into the ground before the patch released.
We also had the benefit of a far easier multipath.
As well su27 br moved UP while F15a did.not.
Sure man, the only thing people like to do nowadays is sh*t on the US in this game anyway, how dare I say that it wasn’t fair huh?
Well looks like the complaining worked huh?
You are aware british mains agreed with Sweden that the 39c shoukd also have went to sweden?
I know, I never said they didn’t. The only thing I said was that British mains complain a lot, and they surely do.
So su27 was actually A Historically nerfed same as the mig29 which was only rectified recently.
Due to US mains crying about the su27 and mig29s being OP when they werent op but were in fact competition for the US jets.
While the F15A got buffed, ans sat at a lower BR?
Where here does it make it change anytning about the USA dominating air in game for nearly 5 years.
Im sorry mate, but if you read up your wording shows the story as if britain wantef the better jas39c over sweden when in fact we wanted equality in it
How was the argument ever about that?
I really don’t know what you’re trying to get across here. The F-15A was worse than the Su-27 in everyway on the Air Superiority dev server, then US mains complained and it got “fixed” they still had the best missile in the game with a very good FM but at least our Radar worked now and the FM was much better.
Has everybody forgotten how good the R-27ER was?
Britain could only get the JAS-39C, and the only reason they got the C before Sweden is because they complained a lot.
They could have simply waited to get it alongside Sweden in Seek & Destroy.
All the er did was force people low to be food for gripen and f16c tho.
Just not the case lol the devs make the decisions
Yeah, so basically BVR was reserved to Russian mains now. It was really good, we should have gotten the Aim-7P with it, which would still have been worse. But somehow we only got it now.
Yeah because community complaints never influenced decision making, sure.
Hu… Surprised this thread wasn’t closed yet

Its time for it to close I have awoken the british mains now and they are angry at me please make it stop
Soooo is the update fully dropped or not?..
Nah… We wanted other aircraft to the Gripen. They were denied.
Sweden should have gotten the A in September alongside the F-16C and Mig-29SMT/G. Gaijin just screwed over Sweden not favoured Britain.
Given we had 11.3s to fight 12.0s.and then 12.3s…i think our complaining was justified for something and Britain had been rather neglected for a while at that point, which didn’t help.

How was this influenced by complaining when the Gripen came for Sweden and UK in the same update. Sure UK mains may have anticipated the addition of a South African gripen but they wouldn’t have know that Sweden wouldn’t get a C variant as well ?
MIG29G was delayed a patch as well tho.

Couldn’t remember which it dropped, but was then only 3 or 4 weeks. Still not the 12 weeks till the Gripen
I agree sweden should have gotten it earlier. But what could britain have gotten? Also whether the complaining was justified or not is not what I said. British mains just complain a LOT, I’m sure you’d agree with that.
Why did Britain get the Gripen C before Sweden? Because they complained enough that Gaijin gave them a Gripen. It just doesn’t make sense to add the A for Sweden, the nation which made the aircraft, and the C to britain which doesn’t even operate it directly.
Now, as morvran said they should have just added the Gripen A alongside the F-16C and MiG-29SMT, just as they should have added the F/A-18C alongside the EF-2000.
