the main issue with the Brmstone is it only takes one person jumping in an SPAA and you life becomes hell since the only way to get kills with them is pretty much flying within 3-4km of the battlefield

It’s one thing to dodge air defenses in an EF-2000 with Brimstone, but it’s another when you’re evading both air defenses and enemy aircraft that also keep you from getting close to the battlefield. I sincerely hope that new air defense systems will start wreaking havoc on enemy aviation and at least somewhat free up allied aircraft. However, I’ve noticed that, on average, for every EF-2000 (in my case), there are 2-3 Su-30s or Su-34s.
yeah like I mentioned the new SLS sams arent gonna do anything to MAV or KH-38 slingers but they will cripples EFTs since they HAVE to get within 12km so the next update I fully expect there to not be much of a point in using brimstones
In that case, the allies have nothing to effectively strike ground vehicles in the game. I still believe it would be better to reduce the number of Brimstone missiles to just 6, but with proper guidance, and that would be fair. Alternatively, switch all aircraft, including Soviet ones, to laser guidance, and then the aviation issue would be resolved. For now, in my opinion, there’s an imbalance in aviation
You could say the allies have good helicopters, but I see them less and less in the game, and as long as the Pantsir-S1 is around, helicopters aren’t much use either

well they’ll be useful for taking out ground targets in Air RB but that’s it
We just keep the hope in our minds that there will be a celebration for us too. :)
not really, GBU-39s are just better most planes get more of them then brimstones and they can one shot any ground target but large bunkers so eh? also you have to guide them one at a time
a limitation to 2 racks of 3 Brimstone would be nice
still gaijin is scared of western ground radar and ARH AGMs in general, thus we’re not getting any
most planes?
is there any aircraft that can take GBU-39 and Brimstone, AND has more GBUs than brimstone available?
I mean planes that can take them get more of them then the EFT get brimstones
Nah I’m not that good. I just have the most basic skills to at least do decent at top tier.
If you have to lie about those observations/confirmations or at least exaggerate them, are they still good and usable?
You know we can check some of this stuff no, so if you claim stuff like this:
It looks really awkward when it turns out you “only” have a 56.4% winrate in the T-80U-E1.
sizable difference between 8 out of 10 and 56.4% no?
that doesn’t fix anything for the EFT
and remember there’s a Nation with ONLY the EFT as Top tier plane
I sometimes think that in tank and air battles, the developers should strengthen airfield air defenses. Top-tier planes freely fly over the runway. In such cases, if a player realizes they can’t win in an air confrontation, they’d have a chance to protect themselves at the airfield. Just as an option. Often, in realistic air battles, if you’re left alone, you have no chance to rearm and try to fight again.
yeah there are 3 actually, my point is the new short range IR sams do nothing to stop AGM65 and KH-38 slingers all they do is cripple the EFT
If you had carefully read what I wrote, you’d understand that I’m specifically talking about NOW. I’m saying this after not playing for two months. Feel the difference and realize that I’m talking about the imbalance as of today. I’m glad you’re checking my stats and apparently taking this too personally. I’m here to express my opinion, and I partly find confirmation for it, so please—win and stay in your own lane, but don’t tell others what to do. If you disagree with my opinion, you can simply say so (which you did).
Only if that was applied to GRB only.
Would be annoyed to.finally get FNF Brimstones only to be restricted to 6 of them in ASB instead of running the full amount for hunting convoys

Considering that my original message didn’t offend anyone, you were the one who responded and confirmed that you’re held back by the administration and message deletion, otherwise you’d express your thoughts as they are. You’ve already taken my post with aggression, and it seems you have something to fight for.
Ah so you are just looking for a echo chamber for your opinion, I know the war thunder subreddit is good for that sometimes.
Nothing to do with taking it personal, if someone says they have a 80% winrate in X vehicle of course I’ll check if that is true.
Trust me, if I was personally offended there were plenty of more interesting things/stats I could use to pick a fight and win it.
OK: Russian MBTs are nothing special. The T-80BVM is still at the top end of the middle of the pack (together with the Leo 2A5-2A6, Abrams and Type 10s) while the T-90M is just an incredibly mid driving skillcheck.
The 2A7s/122s are far better than the BVM and it’s not even close (yes I have played both the 2A7s and BVM), the 2A7s/122s should be stomping the BVM any day of the week. The only reason Russia is oppressive is due to their better SPAA and better CAS (which hopefully will get fixed slightly this update).

I got very curious that you’re bringing up statistics. I’ll suggest again that you try your skills in future tournaments, as that’s where players often keep track of their stats. However, I’ve already confirmed that I’m not a top player and am likely below average. But one person on a team doesn’t guarantee total success. It can’t be that even if I’m really bad, my entire team will inevitably lose. Yet somehow, it does lose. And the fact that you confirmed that the USSR does have an advantage in the game already proves that the balance is broken.
