I find it funny slapping F-14s out the sky in it mostly
The thing is the T1/A’s never had CMs, I figure it would give it something over the Gnat (which would be IIRC a better plane kinematicly)
Again, my experience has been that about 95% of my AMRAAMs arrive at their destination way after the target has already been killed by someone else. The FA.2 just doesn’t have the speed to secure any kills
I mean, the Hunter F.6 and Harrier GR.1 don’t carry CMs either. At 9.7 with SRAAMs.
F-14A need countermeasure pods (not BOL) and RIO modeled + radar fixed and AIM-54 fix.

All planes with RIO need to get the RIO modeled. Other than that the F-14A is fine the way it is.
Afaik the AIM-54s are as close to realistic as they can be with how Gaijin models missile flight performances.

Oh and an Omani Hawk 103 would be a nice premium/event, it’s one of the most unique Mk.100s with both the improved RWR & the only model to feature the nose mounted FLIR
Aim-54 with probably never be fixed. Unless the F-14D comes but even then, it would probably just be a whole new missile so the other F-14’s don’t benefit from it

Its those limitations keeping it at 12.7.
Though “RIO” needs to be better modeled on all 2-Seaters. Like the F3.

This just reminded me that i still gotta finish researching the F3.(Been too busy on other games)
F3 is rather solid, F3 Late really needs its Phimat
The radar still has a couple of issues outside of RIO iirc. Could use the CM pods though (less than BOL if I remember right)
At 12.7 it should have 9L, but it doesn’t, so other stuff like CM pods and radar/phoenix buffs are all that’s left without new armaments
It shouldn’t. More CMs? Fair, but no AIM-9Ls until we get more decompression.
Yeah, I’ve heard good things about the F3. Haven’t heard as many good things from the late but that was mainly when it was at 13.3 (well, at least I’m pretty sure it moved down)
It did in RB, not in SB annoyingly.
Why not though? Are there any other 12.7 with no all aspect missiles?
Forever trapped by the Britain tax
Yeah…
and then devs have abandonned SB, so not even a 13.3 bracket for it
Could be worse, Could be the event tomcat with Aim-9P at 13.0
