Planes given to US for the event aren't as good against Russias vehicles

The planes given to US players are the A-10A early, A-6E Intruder, F-4E Phantom II, and A-7E Corsair II. These planes, compared to the planes Russia gets, aren’t as good. The A10 is fine, I guess, but could possibly be replaced by the A10C or the A10A (Late). The A6E is slow and has no guns, making it mainly a ground pounder. The F4E is underpowered compared to the MiG-29MLD because I have only gotten a lock with the F4E’s radar roughly 5 times, leaving me to use AIM-9Ls and guns in head-ons. The A7E is terrible in this game mode and should be replaced by the F111F because it is at the same br as the SU-24 that Russia gets, can carry nukes, and is better than the A7E by a long shot.
These are only examples but the main thing I want is the F4J Phantom II instead of the F4E Phantom II.

the bigger problems are the fact russia gets the R27ER and US is stuck with sparrows

They should definitely replace the F4E with the F4J to have an equivalent to the Mig-23 MLD. I like using the Mig-23 MLD a lot and using radar missiles in head-ons (kinda unfair)

Theres no sarh missile that could be added to even reach the level of the R27 that the US have access to.

They are also the only side with access to the Aim54, so its sort of balanced

The AIM-7P already exists in game.

The AIM-54 is a titanic piece of garbage. If you are bringing it over sparrows you are outright handicapping yourself.

your statements are pretty contradictory.

US is stuck with sparrows

You say the US is stuck with sparrows, but the 7P (which is allowed btw) is onpar with the R27 so what exactly are you complaining about?

Yes you too can use the 7P after donating $80 to Gaijin.

Can’t use the tomcats fox 3s because of russias absurd spaa.

i used the F14IRIAF with only aim54’s before gaijin banned it. You can 100% use phoenixes and score alot of kills with it

Every f14 player I’ve seen is getting smacked by buks and osas without a chance to fire them while as Russians 141 and 29 can be right over our airfeild and high altitude no problem

Acting like that shit doesn’t happen on both sides huh lemme tell you it certainly does

In what world in the higher tier it’s only russia

When it comes to free vehicles? Absolutely. Mig-23 MLD dominates the F-4E and all other planes are irrelevant.

Russia also gets much better AI AAs for whatever reason.

But it’s not like USA doesn’t have it’s upsides.

F-4S absolutely dominates the lower BR bracket with Aim-7Fs, it’s honestly disgusting how easy it is to farm kills with it.

In a match yesterday a lvl 48 player with no plane of Rank V or above aside of F-4S and like 0.7 K/D on it scored over 8000 points without ever spawning in any nuke plane solely by farming other players with aim-7Fs. It’s disgusting.

Broken vehicle problem in this mode is amplified by many orders of magnitude, due to infinite respawns. Even if you kill the guy, he will just come back.

Imho Gaijin should just nerf the soviet AI AAs and ban all vehicles aside of provided ones from the mode. Otherwise it is impossible to balance.
