Yap those plane on 13.0 is pretty much the worst case predicted by a lot of players before this patch. I played DCS and I got a taste of FOX3, I just know and know for sure that FOX3 absolutely blast any FOX1, R27ER included. It’s not going to be balanced until you have at least 1.0 of a br gap, for the same plane that fires FOX1 and FOX3.
Tell that the f4f ice
Yap it’s the same story there
This is not an excuse lol, i would gladly bring the F16 up to 12.3 ( where the harrier is at rn) or even more, just give me the FOX3 it should have, not some fake subsitute
F-16+fox 3 = 13.0 or higher
13.0, there is no higher
The F16C is at 13.0, with amazing AIR-ground capabilities and FOX3 + AIM9M, and the version with air ordinance only and less countermeasures should be even higher?
I mean future f16 could be above 13.0
Balance should Generally be made with BR placement. not removing historical loadouts. (exceptions will always exist, but they should be as few as possible)
Regarding jets BR above 11.7 it wont need “replacements” as you don’t have lineups in Air RB and Ground is currently maxed at 11.7 so no matter what jet you bring that sits above that BR, its still going to be an 11.7 match.
the only time replacements are needed are at BR’s where the Ground tree have a lineup.
They can also easily make several copy paste versions of jets and make them “early” or “late” (with or without specific loadout to accommodate for Ground lineups) at different BR’s.
Not only will this flesh out some tech trees that need more jets, it would also allow for a potential BR cutoff in air modes so that ARH carriers wont face those jets that do not have ARH missiles.
Finally, saying that NO jets are missing their ARH missiles is just objectively false, they are.
If that ARH missile addition then changes things or makes some jets to OP or “XYZ” doesn’t matter for the original statement.
F-16 with AAMs is indeed 13.0.
It’s not about lineups, it’s about playing cool jets outside the ARH BR range.
The only time a jet is missing a missile is when they have a pylon that should have.
1st off, irrelevant, trees shouldn’t get preferential treatment because of a large or small playerbase.
2nd, both Israel and France have a pair of 13.0s, and Britain has 3 ARH carriers same as the US and more than the USSR despite all being supposedly minor nations.
Amount of ARH carriers doesn’t matter in this case.
Especially since you’re asking for the Gripen A and C to be identical BRs…
There was no point in adding them as separate planes in the first place. Should at least be foldered.
There was though.
One for 12.7 and one with ARHs for 13.0.
That leaves Gripen E with IRIS-T for 14.X later on.
The br is so close that the matchmaking is the same and it’s irrelevant. You basically have to research the exact same plane for one new missile, unless you want the better mavericks.
No, the BR being so close where matchmaking is the same is 0.0 difference.
Especially since 13.3 is around the corner.
No.
The JA37D doesn’t need to be 11.3 as the JA37C historically had the exact same load out as the D version has in game, giving the D version amraams would just fix the continuity
Well in come the J11A, exact same radar and avionics with MAWS and Fox3 means same BR as Su27SM? It should get an upgraded radar like N001VE and that would significantly increase the ability and not make it broken.
The JA-37D is fine at 11.3, it’d be the worst 12.7 with AMRAAMs.
Or the best 12.3 with AMRAAMs
