remove flares from F-5C, remove this, remove that. This is an extremely slippery slope…

There’s plenty of aircraft ingame that lack weapons they historically could carry, so there’s really no slip in this slope.
Nonsense
Sure, then remove the AIM-9M.
100% remove flares from F-5C them make 10.0

I don’t think R27ERs should be removed, they are the best radar missiles in game currently, way better than AIM-7M, but not at a game breaking level. However, I strongly urge Gaijin to add better Sparrow variants with data link – AIM-7P block II. The advantage of R27ER over the current sparrow is mainly due to this capability, and if the game isn’t ready for AMRAAMs, it’s only reasonable and fair if they add the later sparrow variants that’s matching R27ER’s capability. At least add the AIM-7P block II to F-16C and F-15.

R-27R’s equivalent is AIM-7E-2, not 7F/M.

well we’re not talking about adding tech that’s missing, we’re talking about removing things already in the game. That’s a massive difference.
It’s not that good, actually. Maneuverable and decently fast, but lacking in firepower and acceleration. 2x AIM-9Es are pretty useless and while the 20mms are quite good they’re no Vulcan. What makes the F-5C seem so good is there’s so dam many of them in any random battle so they combined get the most kills of any aircraft type.

The 20mils are based AF wdym
But yeah definitely not 10.7 material lol probably not 10.3 without CMs either
Ok bud. Lets relax
10.0 is pretty damn high for a plane with no flares, and only 2 shit missiles
Skill issue. F-5C has very slow acceleration, weak engines and top speed in level flight is mach 1.0. It excels at mid-low speed dogfights.
Problem is, people get too slow around them and then get clapped. You can easily energy trap an F-5C with most of the planes around this BR. Just don’t take headons and don’t go one circle. It’s that easy.

The R-27R1 is utter useless. Playing the whole afternoon with it and it fails to connect every single time. Even if everything seems optimal. So removing the ER1 would make alot russian planes totally useless.

R-73 archer is inconsistant anyways. Its somehow to weak. I only get assists with it. Needs more boom. But thats also the point. Air RB is a radar missile meta. IR missiles aren’t really the main killers there.Which means without R-27ER it would be a onesided Aim-7 Sparrow cyclejerk.

That all of this argument is considering Year of Service Entry of an aircraft/missile.
Gaijin did the other way around → what does have the aircraft at it’s best in the service entire life, then check if the current weapon is similar to what is in-game. (Or else, we would have recieved lot of new weapons already)
Therefore, the argument is flawed from the start as you do not take into account the same method as Gaijin.
In such, your post is:
At worst:
Simply useless, and not going to change anything.
At best: a simple background of what should be added as Stock Weaponary (what kind of missile for stock aircraft)

It has twice lower TNT equivalent than on some AAM.
Noticed that too. R-73 is total trash. The kill always gets stolen…or you need to fire 2-3 to make it sure. Its just not a weapon I wan’t to rely at. My main kill weapon are the R-27ER1. Take that away and you can delete the Mig-29 out of the game. Cause gun is also inferior to 20mm Vulcans. Would be a broken bird with no kill power, while US mains enjoy their brrrrp brrrrp, Aim-9L/M oneshotkills and spam reliable Sparrows.
