what we need is 14.7 or maybe even 15. 0
Cause its just not? If the target flares then both missiles eat the flare. Again miniscule difference which you seem to continue ignoring. Thai F5 T is the same br with only 2 python 3’s vs the same aircraft with 2 python 3’s and 2 9P4 missiles. So again its statistics of a jet being played by noobs vs the people who have more then likely grinded a lot of other TT’s and have skill playing the Netz.
forget full uptiers, Gaijin doesn’t want those to be enjoyable, it’s one of they ways they try and push people to top tier, and to spend money to get there.
the real question is the 0.7 uptiers, and how they fare against the F-16A, and tbh that matchup isn’t so bad
I sure love having multiple vehicles suffer just so one vehicle can get a lower BR in relation to its peers.
Can’t wait for this to go further so we can get another F-104 at 9.3 scenario
Tbf people underestimate agile eagle, which can allows for upwards of 24° aoa
i know i was shocked i won in a 50s jet to be fair in a gun dual no less
They python 3 has 2 massive advantages, speed and burn time, the missile goes very quick, and the diamond disappears very quick, which means you have to be much more aware of a P3 than you do a 9L, and for IR missiles, that is a pretty big difference
Again a competent f16a will fly low and be immune to radar missiles and then close the gap ripping players apart. Its very balanced

Again agile eagle is crazy good and people just see phantom and think its bad. People need to actually try playing it

both of the f5 are in same tree.
a significant increase in missile performance is not miniscule, you are just clinging to the whole noob thing
now all we need is funny canard F4 because that has agile eagle and canards
not to mention F5E tiny heat signature
you can counter that by flying high, the 9L is very easy to deal with from below, and at some point, the F-16 has to go up, at which point it’s vulnerable.
Also let’s compare the F-16A to other 12.3s like the MiG-21Bison and Mirage 2000 with IRCCM missiles and good radars and radar missiles

Here is a F4J, notice the difference in speed just to pull better aoa? Any Viggen at those speeds is dead in the water. Too slow of acceleration and cant do any more turns. F4 players that know how to fly are very good and it sucks seeing people with these mid takes saying that the F4’s with agile eagle are bad.
reminded me to play the Su-25BM for 11.0 R-73, thanks
Is that the event mirage 2000 at 12.3? Tbf ive always wondered why France was able to keep a F16 equal at such a low BR when the missiles where pretty good.
2 extra missiles is a very big difference since it allows for you to force your target to turn and bleed speed.
Statistics. The C-S4 has fewer CMs and is an event vehicle, so people can just buy it without any experience.
And well, I can’t remember ever really seeing many C-S5s either, so maybe that one was a sleeper.
yeah i know but thats just wierd balancing
Fair, makes a lot of sense then since new players can gain access to it.
