Japan’s lord and savior, can we expect the data you’ve gathered to be taken into considerations by the developer team to tune the F2s ?
Don’t expect any changes soon, devs aren’t even planning on adding aam4b anytime soon to the f2.

yeah but at some point , hopefully within 2026 an update would still be nice rather than it being neglected forever or years
you say that while the f2 was added way too late. I see the devs putting in the malaysian tree as a fix to the f2 and f15jm. Its the wrong and lazy way to fix japan top tier air. We had to push hard before to fix f2’s thrust.
yeah I love the F2 but it’s soooo slow compared to other planes at the same BR :'c
Apparently its ok since the f2 has the best airframe. People still dogfight in top tier? Well I’m being forced to initiate dogfights because I only have aam3 and a vulcan cannon left after the initial furball.
Yeah we get 4 Sub par ARH which is just outclassed by R77-1 and even the C5, and the PL12 and the MICA,
after those we get AAM3 which is actually a very cool missile but good luck having alt and being closer than 6KM to the enemy aircraft in ARH Spam.
and if you play the Premium one well AIM-7M getting sucked up into 13.3 because everyone bought the Venezuelan and the Chinese SU 30MK2 with RVV-AE sooo yeah AIM-7M vs R77 and they carry almost 2x more missiles than you, so they just spam you from afar and once they get close R73 while just flying straight not even adjusting trajectory 😒
I always tell people to not buy any premium japan jets and just get the squadron f5e fcu for free. Much better for grinding, just slap a tailsman on that.
Welp mine was a Gift and I loved the plane when it came out and i would often get downtiered to F4S but nowadays you only get sucked up into 13.3/13.7 with 4 SARH that is slower than R27ER ofc so it’s not even that good and you’re slow as hell barely managing to escape ARH missiles even when properly notching
BETTERE YET why is F15J at 12.7 with 4 IRCCM (AAM3; AIM-9M) and 4 AIM-7M and a lot faster than F2A.
both have 8 Missiles…
while the Premium stayed on 13.0 ? just because of AESA ? what’s the point of AESA if you can’t even use it since you have to notch and run away from ARH while you have SARH with no DL ?
idk, at least you get to know how fast you’re gonna die seeing 5 su30s launch r27er on you lol

yeah And i don’t understand why they GREED the AIM-7P only to the premium F18 ?
they add A-historical balance changes when giving Jet’s missiles they never had or HMD and so on yet F2 get’s none of them claiming it’s not historically accurate… yeah right

The day F2 gets an HMD is the day I can finally smile playing this game

For real it will be so much more fun, instead of cycling through targets or playing darts on your radar,
or aiming your NOSE in ACM to lock a nearby target.
they claim it has good maneuverability while you spend all of your energy in lining up your nose to shoot a missile 🤔
The official war thunder youtube channel said to do this since we don’t have HMD lmao
The alternate ACM mode the real long one in the vertical sense helps in dogfights
yeah but only when they vertically align but that still won’t substitute HMD since it locks EVERYTHING it comes in contact first no matter the distance as long as the signal is strong…
meanwhile 12.7 F15J has HDM as well…
Edit : MB forgot Regular J doesn’t have HMD

Actually it doesn’t
But this makes the F15JM more usefull than the f2 in the TT
Yes at 13.7 … i don’t even like to play it at 13.7 (T_T) I gave up playing it since there are much more enjoyable alternatives…
BUT BUT BUT you turn fast with 0.9M speed 🫠

Probably will get made fun of for asking
But is lack of SRC modes on F-2 ADTW a genuine oversight/bug or a balancing decision?
