Move the sagittario 2 to a reasonable battle rating

Let’s start with the aircraft itself. It is a monster in dogfighting. Like I have never lost in a dogfight while flying sagittario 2. But there are some fatal issues. It does not have a single flare or chaff. No air-to-air missiles. Nothing offensive except it’s two 30mm cannons. It also does not come with an afterburner, which makes it worse.

I’m sure you already know that sagittario 2 moved to 9.3 a while ago, both in air and ground battles. Now, imagine you are flying your sagittario 2 in a ground battle. What are the enemies? Roland 1? J-7D? Lav-ad? strela? What could you possibly do to avoid them without even a RWR? nothing!

Ok, everyone is sure that it is a great dogfighter, and it does not suffer in 9.3 in air battles. But it sucks in ground battles! It is a fact! c’mon, even Mig-15bis in 8.7 has more to offer when facing enemies on the ground. I’m saying that it should at least move to 8.7 in ground battles. Even 8.3 is fair.

Gaijin should really do something about this.

Unfortunately, it is high BR exactly for the reason that players do not know how to combat against slower, more manuverable aircraft. It would crush them even more at a lower BR. But in GRB, the G.91 YS should serve you much better at the same BR as it has a wide selection of ground weapons, like 1000lb bombs, Zuni and Mighty Mouse rockets. The Sagittario really has no place there in comparison.
