I really do not understant people complaining about USSR, the have a huge advantage over the US (preset vehicles)!!
Su-25T loadout of 2 ARHM + Vikhirs are better than the agm65b from the A10, not only that but it also get 2 extra missiles which are IRCM, while a10 gets only 2 aim9L (not even ircm). Also it reachs mach 0.8 very fast, while a10 gets less than 700 km/h
Fighter/nuke jets like Mig-23 and Su-24 fas superior than the phantom and the other ones, way more speed and better turn.
US air defenses sucks, patriot doesnt even try to shoot at you, and sometimes also happens with the hawk, roland and gepard. Also hawk has way less range and kill chance than the buk. Being roland possible to dodge and escape in compare with the osa. Playing as US you need to destroy the BUKs to then try to nuke the airfield, in case of hawk having so little range, no need to worry about it.
It is a bit unfair that Gaijin set the first bracket at a maximum of 11.7, where the US does NOT have a single fighter jet, and they are stuck with F4E while the USSR can use Mig23MLD by default.
I mean I saw a few that bought the F/A-18 just for the event, this is just the more extreme step.
Personally I’m surprised it’s even that expensive compared to other event rewards, I guess people just really want the F-14. Really makes me wonder (worry?) the F-14D will be event too.
