All im reading is the XS will go to10.7 to die
Sometimes things are best left alone.

Like the missile buffs in general. Everyone moans about balance. The worst missiles: AAM4, PL12, Derby etc could of been tweeked- not release the kraken R77s…when fox 3 is already fighting fox 1 every game.

ATM fox 3 missiles are actually balanced- the game is about get much worse

Time to play the J-16 after the Great PL-12 Depression end :)

Can’t wait for aamram spam 2.0

I looked at previous september updates. My conclusion is that I don’t know which way it could go. Does that help?

I mean, it was lowered from 10.7 down to 10.3 about 1.5 years ago.

( Planned BR Changes — February 2025 - Google Drive )

( Planned Battle Rating Changes for February 2025 )

So an increase doesn’t seem that far of perhaps (with better missiles) if it’s already balancing between those BR’s.

They’re gonna be fun to use in Nuclear Thunder. And it’s not the missiles fault gajin gives us tiny maps for Air RB. NT and Sim would welcome these changes the most. Additionally, they are permanently adding Bullet Hell if you don’t like the idea of modern missiles.

Yes because it was pay for pain.

Giving it more missiles isnt going to improve its chances vs full radar slingjng lobbies with no RWR and 12 CMs

Do you play the same game? It has no missile warning and 12 CMs.

Vs cracked AI SAMs does not equate to being fun

Its like the f16a- complete garbage. Nobody has a good time, luckily theres plenty of other viable f16s to use.

J35 not so much. The XS is the only one thats actually good and thats about to be given better missiles which sends it to the ever growing dust pile of useless jets…

They should leave the XS as it is. And release the DOA j35 with whatever they want as its a fat RIP anyway. I dont see why existing jets have to suffer these “buffs” that kill the jet

you want a Draken with RWR and Flares and Chaff and good Missels? Check this out: J35OE Mk2: The upgraded austrian Draken!

Time-to-target percentage improvement compared for all the recently changed fox-3s.

R-77 and PL-12 were the biggest winners.

Spoiler

If it is the integral improvement of the missile’s flight time and speed, shouldn’t the time be shortened by a percentage?

It is, the percentage you’re seeing is how much it was shortened by.

Kinda counterintuitive ^^

Ehh I was referring to the Fox 3s mainly. We shall see how the Draken ends up. If the stats don’t change too much we should be fine.

What are the actual times now?

Day 1301 of waiting for Polish tech tree

I’ve got two questions;

1- Are people really firing missiles from 50 km ranges?

2- Are people really DYING to such launches?

1 - yes
2 - no unless they are afk
