MIG-21 "lazur-m" ruined top tier

it is an huge problem now, when this premium just steals all bases because it is faster than every strike aircraft. it can destroy base and still be way too good fighter. it still has missiles in its bomb loadout. it is super hard to play and grind when supersonic fighters act like heavy strike aircraft. i have been playing AJ37 a lot, and it cannot compete whit these mig:s at all. gajin please do something.

The JA37 is a fighter anyway

if JA37 has bomb load, it has no guns, no counter measures no nothing

That is the AJ37 smartass

and those strike viggens are the single worst plane to use as bombers because of their low amount of bombs

my point is at An Fighter who is overperforming all strike aircrafts on this tier should not get napalm because it is making dedicated strike aircraft useless.

AJ37 is strike aircraft, not an fighter

21bis ruined top tier? What is this, 2020?

Better to bomb in sim.

yes, i had little skill issue.

  1. JA37 cant bomb. And the MiG-21s that do carry bombs are heavier and lose 2 missile spots.
  2. I have finished grinding out most of the Swedish air tree recently, so I got experience playing all the J37 variants.

So:

  • Either I’m very good and can out turn every mig cuz I got skillz.
  • I’m mid and every single mig that engaged me was just a crap player.
  • You are suffering form a textbook example of skill issue

This isn’t a problem with the Mig as much as it’s a problem with the game mode in Air RB. If you nerf the Mig another plane is just going to take it’s place like the Phantom for example. Gaijin won’t nerf the premiums either because they sell, more so if they are good grinders. What needs to happen is the game mode needs a revamp. More targets, bases etc. to give strike aircraft something to do other than be fodder for fighters.

Edit: fixed stupid typos.

i meant AJ37, not JA37

He already admitted earlier he wrote the wrong name. viski253 just didn’t read

Kfir Canard, F-104S are faster than the Mig-21Bis.
Kfir has the incorrect in-game role, but it’s primarily a strike aircraft IRL.

so there is almost nothing what players can do? other than not playing strike aircraft

daam bro, i have only seen MIG.s stealing bases

It’s popularity of the tech tree more than anything.
The higher BR the faster the strike aircraft become, with F-111F and F-15E/I being the fastest in the game; yes, faster than the Mig-23ML.
However, popularity you won’t see F-111Fs as much as Mig-21s.
