Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

what do you mean you want your phantoms to be comparable to other phantoms at the same br, inconceivable.

Game isnt only about RB. So, there is, in air sim brittish f4 are better than other phantoms

im on about phantoms such as the f4s and f4j, in what way are the british phantoms better than those 2 in sim?

Aim7fs, agile eagle (or its equivilant). equal radar or near equal. no better rwr…

Only the FGR2/FG1 because they’ve been given the lower BR and are basically the only counter to the Mig-23MLD.

F-4J(UK) though is for some reason 12.0

F-4J does not have agile eagle or any equivalent afaik

Well
Thats i believe thats the only phantoms you can get rn

F-4J(US) does get better SARH (and arguably the better config of being able to run 6x SARH), HMD and Napalm.

really?
i swore it got it.

thats why ppl were unhappy about the F-4S, it was the best US phantom since it had agile eagle on top of the other good things about the F-4J

I had forgotten they were 11.3 tbh. How is the f4j(UK) at 12.0? Im guessing nobody plays it enough to get stats on it.

Yeah, kind of a piss take but thats gaijin for you.

Also it gets better rwr(better IRL at least, not sure did gaijin model difference between normal 45 and 45f)

I still question how something with all of that plus HMD is still sat at 12.0.

Yeah. I’ve reported it every single BR change for about 18 months

Even with improved manueverability it still is more like an F-4J than an actual dogfighter. The Navy version of agile eagle bleeds a lot more speed iirc and the Navy phantoms are heavier so it’s not as good as the F-4E and has worse retention than the J

Do you actually think it should go up in BR?

No. I was referring to the F4J(UK) being 12.0 in SB and the FGR2/FG1 are at 11.3 which are faster, have more CMs and have better better RWR.

I’ve been reporting F4J(UK) to be the same BR as the FGR2/FG1

F4J (UK) has the better RWR

I dont think so

At least it didnt the last time I checked

still 12.3 worthy IMO. ej kai is at 12.3 with a brick of a fm and the same 7fs. 9ls arent all that great anymore as they go for flares as much as an r60. The question is, do you tink 10.0s should face it?
