No, it needs a 13.0 IR missile now. It is stuck with AIM-9P fighting AIM-9M and R-73
How good does it work though?
Okay, damn that is cool. You may have given me a reason to grind the Swedish tree at some point
You say that like its a bad 13.0 vehicle when its not, I’ll admit P3 is meaving a lot to be wanted but its one of the best 13.0 jets ive flown easily my top 3, Su-27, F15A, and F14 IRIAF
…I’m talking about the Ariete: Ariete | War Thunder Wiki
I’m going to be frank, a premium should not require you to have completed the TT(and in turn maxed out the crew) just to play it. Yet, unless you have a max-level crew it’s unplayable.
I’m looking at you long-barreled Panzer IVs(the F2 should be 3.7, and the rest climb up in BR until the best one(H) caps them off at 4.7.
Well, before if the target notched, the PD radar would just lose the lock. Now it will switch to SRC at the right time and maintain the lock flawlessly, if they swap back to coming straight at you, it automatically swaps back to PD.
Which sounds exactly like what the RIO would be doing.
RIO probably could also adjust the radar scope and scale to narrow the beam onto the target. Radars are far less restricted in terms of search areas than they are in game iirc
Lets be real, you’re not going to do that lol. That TT is a skill check for almost the entire time you play it. Honestly impressive to meet people who grinded the entire TT with postive KD’s since you basically play worse versions or other vehicles while at a higher BR.
I don’t think it’s that bad a vehicle, CM count is alright at that BR and it’s completely carried by the missiles, but still not bad.
However I do think it could use an upgrade in it’s IR missiles to put it on more even footing at closer ranges
Yeah… This is probably true. Grindign the French TT at the moment (With the Mirage F1C-200) and then maybe do Italy after that. (I got the AMX A-1A and its kinda fun in SB)
Sweden was on my list before Britain got the Gripen. A few aircraft strike me as interesting for SB like the AJ37 but beyond that. Yeah. I dont really see much point in grinding it
If it historically used them then it should be added, ive been told R27 didn’t actually work on it so i really have no idea. Its up to gaijin in the end. And i honestly dont see them adding anything to it. Remember what happens when the snail sometimes up the BR of stuff while giving it better munitions? It then gets sent up again and suffers. Char 25 moment lol
It’s like AIM-9M for F-14B at 13.0 it’s basically required to have an all aspect ir missile or irccm
Eh, the Lansens are interesting, but you have to be a very skilled pilot and know your opponents to do well in dog fights with them. I’d say the SK 60 is silly enough to warrant grinding with its prox fuze ATGM’s i member hunting TU-4 and B29’s lol
We will wait for the snails insight on the matter
Fair enough
Yeah, I’m sure there are a couple other things a modeled RIO could help with but we’ll have to see if they do implement it to begin with
Honestly suprised you didn’t buy the XS since many say its OP. I personally cant stand the J35’s flight model and refuse to play them so would be interesting to see your opinion on it. Though only the best players play the J35D. I mean why else is it 10.7 in Sim lol
I was originally debating between it and the Mirage F1C-200 but decided that France held more stuff that I was interested in getting and so was the better investment. I may some day get the J-35XS, especially as it is now at a kinda OP BR.
Then I got the AMX A-1A as well because it also looked like a really fun ground attacker for SB and I was right. Also very good in GSB but really needs to be 10.7
Honestly depending on if Austria gets added to Germany sweden air will literally have the Viggens and the Lansens as their only unique jets, well i forgot the 6.7 J21 and A21 jet versions…what a great TT lmao
To be fair, that’s almost every jet, especially 8.X-9.X ones. Even a J-7D is quite bad to play with a stock crew.
