You know what would be even better than terrain following radar?
No longer having to deal with 50 meter tall trees…

Trees arent the issue imo, ECM should be added as well as terrain following radar so you dont need to be risking a tree strike to survive a radar missile in a plane that lacks an rwr or chaff

Made one myself, additions are not uniformly rated. based on of much I like them as additions, how I find they play and fight against them.

Will there be plan to add ‘subtree’ to naval? For instance, GRB and JPN coastal tree would be much better with addition of India and Thailand.

Sure, trees aren’t the main issue when it comes to avoiding SARH/ARH missiles, but I would still like to be able to fly as low as possible without having to deal with unrealistically huge trees.
To me this isn’t just about multipathing, as you can also use natural cover to dodge IR missiles and to get enemy planes off your tail, but huge trees tend to make following the natural cover more of a gamble than a test of maneuvering skill.

High speed Tornado F.3 in a forested hilly area is death at low alt lol

Im spading the 9.7 hunter but because im a seasoned pilot i still do well, im not a good case for that thing going down

I cant play the hunter at all, end up with a 9L or something to the forehead every game

or a soviet radar missile. at least youre a fast subsonic. facing nearly only supersonics…

I reckon the Swedish Hunter with its prototyped afterburner would be quite alright at 9.7 or 9.3 bc it does only get 9Bs

i do thing the vampire should be at 7.3, venom at 7.7. regular hunter should be 8.7, F6 at 9.0, swiss hunter at 9.3

Vampire used to be 7.7 and it slapped really hard so idk about that, never played the venom though

Would there be a chance to see mid to low Hungary soon as it would be a nice treat.

That’s undertiering it for sure. With decompression, it will easily go to 10.0.

Gaijin just needs to decompress those BRs.

with current compression i think it fits there as you have the lightning at 9.3 and SU7B which will just kick its teeth in no matter.

decompression may ease it but i do think BR tweaks have been needed for years as they kept their legacy BRs after a decade of powercreeping

My point is, is that the Hunter F.58 already quite good at 9.7, and the only thing stopping it from being 10.0 is BR compression.
