Again maybe it me but i prefer the more armor and engine uograde over one round besides im still using aphe for the most part since its a literal nuke shell and few peeps have real armor aside from a few specifc tonks.
T-2 kinda is. Its more that 9.x is compressed to hell. Stuff like the swiss hunter and av8 have CM and similar missiles at the same BR in exchange for mobility. Regardless flares are more useful than the mobility of the T2
I only had Japan up to 2BR and it was hell as I expected. I bought the Chi-Nu II Premium and played it on it’s own and it was so much fun.
I soon got up to 4BR with the other stuff.
I don’t mind playing a small tech tree. I only had the Israeli M51 for so long on its own with nothing to support it but it came with multiple lives.Had fun with that. Played it four times a game or whatever they gave you.No problem.
They both suck in uptiers, but in downtiers the T-2 is far worse to deal with as it has far better missiles and better turning. One of the main balancing factor with the F-104 was its bad missiles. Both F-104 and T-2 get pseudo flares, FFARs, which can render R-60Ms and Aim-9Ls useless in headons with A-10s/Su-25s.
Either way, saying the F-104 is OP but not T-2 is just standard Japan main cope
Id argue f104 is under BRed. Its 9.3 which means it seal clubs 8.3 vehicles. A smart 104 player will never have a hard time fighting in 8.x-9.x battles as they just BnZ. The T2 is like a baby 104 but cant keep up speed wise. Additionally they dont have speed to runaway from other fighter like the 104 can so i think they are fiarly comparable but the 104 gets better matches since the A is 9.3. Both should be 9.7 and 9.x should be decompressed more.
Ima dip for a bit cant wait to see what i come back too…
putting the F-104 at 9.7 with Aim-9Bs and no actual countermeasures would just ruin it. The only 8.3s that can’t reliably deal with an F-104 is F-84F and bombers.
I wish the Swedish B18B was a premium or there was a premium version. I don’t play AIR games much and I’m still using the B18A at 4BR.
Some OK fighters but lousy CAS
Japan and China also suffers with CAS at lower BR in terms of ground attack aircraft or low level bombers.

So according to your post… everyone that listens, and those that acknowledge their mistakes, are bad. I have to use the word bad cause including quoted insults is a forum rules violation.
Cause I know I read everything, as proven here.
And I’ve acknowledged every mistake I’ve made, which is easily hundreds on this forum. Every edit on a post is an admission of a mistake, that is ALWAYS me admitting I’ve made a mistake in the post.
Over 80% of my knowledge comes from other people on this forum and YouTube, accepting everything people say from their perspective cause all perspectives are valuable.
I’ve been a 3D modeler.
I’ve watched people code vehicles and explain how despite two vehicles being the same make and model but with a weight difference that they have to re-write a lot of code to make the new one function as it should.
I’ve been part of research teams. This helps me better understand every vehicle in War Thunder had a research team behind it pumping hours into finding everything about the vehicle regardless of the vehicle.
Even copy-paste vehicles like T-34-85 need hours of research to verify that the game can have a copy-paste vehicle over making a new 3D model, or giving it different weapons/other characteristics.
Your post can keep claiming the opposite of reality though, all that does is ignore what I say. You’d say “don’t listen”.
I don’t, cause I’d rather say my piece and be civil. It’s up to everyone to listen and accept what I say as I do with others. I don’t expect the respect I give everyones’ posts to be reciprocated; it’s just appreciated every time it happens.
I did not know for the last year that Italy had a Vampire.
I likely saw it in 2020 or 2021, but after that I never acknowledged that line at that rank, so far enough; thank you for the information.
You claiming that? Cause that’s the only reason to make that post in my eyes…
Oh yeah, because of research hours, that’s why I never complain about copy-paste as a whole. Time and effort was put into researching to the best of their abilities the vehicle that would have a copy-pasted 3D model.
I spammed F-104A before decompression but, it was ok even if you get full uptier games.
Only issue was MiG-21SMT/MF because it has better top speed and missiles but, that is quite fair in light of the fact that it can only face full up tier games.
