Should also consider language difference and platform difference, as not all of player would use official forum.
An example is, in a poll on the biggest Chinese speaking forum, most of players think China, al teast in top tier, have suffered a lot, especially they think Gaijin make the vehecle of China incorrectly because they believe Gaijin think China can’t be better than Russia
Also, if we look Germany top tier planes, they have no 13.7, lack of CAS, so would they be a small nation?
The majority is, from RU to Chinese servers. This forum is a meltingpot from all platforms.
Germany is still one of the best nations allround and they do have CAS at the top br, with the tornado, all be it at a slightly lower br.
Upcoming December they will be getting a Swiss F-18 (by the looks of it).
I’m going to be honest. Sweden might be a “minor nation,” but they might as well be a major one in many aspects.

Howcome?
Just because they have a good top tier list?
They still lack 300 vehicles behind the main three, have limited lineups and almost NO additions per update, with this year only bringing in 3 vehicles in the TT in total.
1 tank and 2 planes.
So together with Japan, Israël and Italy, receiving the least amount of vehicles per year.

Fair points.
My comment was more so directed at top-tier Sweden, which is pretty powerful all things considered. I am aware that Sweden is missing good lineups at lower tiers and don’t get that many vehicles.
F-16 is known for being very maneuverable and thus gaijin wants to please the USA players who are undoubtedly their cash cows. Its release FM was incredibly boring to use, but its now way too overtuned.
Pretty much same plane + indigenous missiles that are quite a bit heavier in return for better performance (in case of AAM-3) or a sidegrade (in case of AAM-4). Pretty much just luck, though the difference is incredibly small.
yeah
(Hopefully this isn’t something you already know, but) this is due to a Gaijin guesstimate of the ultimate load strength being 1.5x the limit load factor. The charts people bring up regarding load factor versus air speed only show the limit load, because the pilots are intentionally not told what the true limit of the airframe so that they don’t think they can go past the limit loads (as if they do go past it they’ll permanently bend something on the airframe if they don’t go past the ultimate strength).
That assumption is reasonable and I knew of this already, but the issue is actually allowing us to go beyond the 7.5-9G that a normal pilot would be doing which is about the limit of what a human can reliably do.
Obviously this creates situations where a plane that has a computer hard limiting it to 9G is just not suited to WT where your opponents are doing a lot more.
I’d say with an Ace crew it’d be understandable for the pilot to survive momentary 10G+ loads and ~9G sustained (for around five seconds), seeing as there are pilots out there who can do that in a centrifuge at least.

Yeah, but we’re going a few Gs beyond that and we’re doing it all the time.
I constantly pull 10-14 Gs in Korean War era planes, and the airframes can handle it too.
I also managed to do this in the Cr.42/J11.

India should not be apart of Britain. Britain can
get vehicles from South Africa, Canada, Australia, and many more and each of them would make much more sense than India. Most Indians do not speak English as a first language, India does not consider The British monarch as its head of state, India is much more ethnically and culturally different, and Indians highly resent colonial rule. Add India to Israel, Russia, or make it an independent tree (see the “Call of Mahabharata” forums post.
In my opinion, we should have gotten a standalone Commonwealth tree with Canada, Australia, India, and South Africa among others, which would be so varied that it would actually feel refreshing. Britain could then get Ireland if necessary.

That would have been a better option as well
Wouldn’t the commonwealth include Great Britain though. If you’re going to do it might as well do right the first time.
Yes, but a commonwealth tree without Britain is what I mean

Imo sweden is the worst air tree in the game
