Reasoning: Yak-9U is similar to the Yak-3, but with a more powerful engine, improved overall performance, and better structural limits at higher speeds. Although it is slightly heavier, it still maintains a higher top speed, along with solid acceleration, climb rate, and maneuverability.
As a result, it greatly benefits from the current Air RB meta, where most engagements occur around 3,000 meters, an altitude range in which the Yak-9U already excels, allowing it to perform effectively and help conclude matches more quickly.
Moving it to 5.0 would still leave it comfortably balanced at that BR.
You already moved this to 5.0, but only in AB, so why not in RB too??
Reasoning: Like the Yak-3, the Yak-3U is significantly stronger at 5.7 thanks to its lighter airframe and more powerful engine. It offers superior climb rate, maneuverability, energy retention, and acceleration, allowing it to outperform most of its peers. It is a particularly lethal opponent at low altitudes. Its only drawback is subpar high-altitude performance. However, with strong 20 mm cannon ballistics, it benefits greatly from the current Air RB meta, where most engagements occur around 3,000 meters, an altitude range in which the Yak-3U excels, enabling it to perform effectively and help conclude matches more quickly.
the guy doesnt think, he just has a hard on against spaas cause he cant deal with them, and specialy USA is in a weakspot at the early ballistic br ranges
The Ozelot is tiny making it hard to spot, but ontop of that, it gets long range IRCCM and IRST. It’s near impossible to spot before firing, and even if you do know where it is, its IRST makes sneaking up on it for close range strafe/rocket attacks very risky. IRCCM does not belong facing flareless post-war jets.
(note)
In accordance with early SAMs going up, the following planes would also have to be raised:
A-4E (Early), Ayit, Hunter F.58, Yak-130, A-4E Early (M), and A-4E.
Long range IRCCM missiles. There’s not much to say here, IRCCM does not belong facing flareless post-war jets.

Make the Matra R550 Magic 1 immediately available in the loadout, rather than requiring it to be unlocked through a Tier IV modification.
Reasoning: I do not think I need to say much. The direct British counterpart, the Jaguar GR.1A, has the AIM-9G available without the need for research. The same applies to the Jaguar IS, which already has the Magic II available without research.
The Jaguar A sits at a BR where missile engagements are more common, and it is frustrating to grind for the missile modification at Tier IV when the Jaguar A is already outclassed by fighters at 10.7 and above. It has to rely on securing third-party air kills to make meaningful progress in modification research.

Air realistic
F4C
Give some aim7d stock
The plane is quite reliant on the radar missiles and has an atrocious stock grind, so why doesn’t it get two of them stock? The j35D already gets two aim9j’s stock
SANTAL has 16G missile, it can be EASILY outmaneuvered by literally any plane in that BR bracket. Try using WASD and not fly towards inevitable demise.
