Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

METEOR to fight MiG-25 which cant fight back sounds like a good idea

Only way its 11.0

No MTI
no All-aspect
No CMs

you dont need that

the stuff we have ingame already at top tier is more than good enough to deal with the mig25

Would literally just outrun everything lol just like F15E on release mach 2 on the deck lmao, no CM’s needed

aim120 c-5 definitely is a hard counter to mig25 rn so i dont think it should have to face them. Aim120a/b i think would be fine depending on the platforms it faces. Like at 12.3 it could see aim120 on the viggen, the phantom, the f16a, f16d and the tornado. It can see pl-12 on the J8 and the r77 on the J11a, 29smt and su30 premium. Which seems fair enough depending on how maneuverable they model the R40rd/td. The R40rd should be able to out range the R77 and derby, about breaking even with aim120/pl12.

Yep, but at least it couldnt do anything either, just sits AFK every match

13.0 is Min for it to be relatively commonly defeated

11.0 is what it can at best Fight reliably

this is the problem, it doesnt have the weaponry to fight stuff that can fight back

its Unbalancable and thus not really fit for the game, just like Maus was when it still was TT

Amd wastes time yay, it should be reserved for a special mode lol or nerfed to fit the current ganeplay loop.

Which is why Id pick 12.0 minimum for it.

In uptiers its somehwat countered

In downtiers it doesnt curbstomp

Yeah… But you know. Soviets suffer

well I guess although id still go with 12.3

besides this whole argument, id still like to play it as an Event plane

Depends on exact weapons fit and how they are modeled, but yes, Id place it either at 12.0 or 12.3

why? the MiG-23M already has all of those features at 11.0 while being much more maneuverable and faster at 0-13km

no no straight 12.3

like with maus which is set Firmly in the it can be defeated area MiG-25 should be too

23m has Mti? I thought only thr ML/MLA/MLD had it.

(youre correct)

Nah, 11.0 sounds fine to me. Wouldn’t want it any lower than that based on what it would encounter in a full downtier.

Yeah… them afterburners are gonna look comically big

yes
