So Your experience in the topic when comparing it to russian planes like Jak-9UT is abysmal? Great to hear.

Nope, but I’m glad you’re showing that high horse attitude.
I like flying the TU-1 which has 45mms and less pen than an XA-38 again, plus it flys like a boat. But guess what? I still like it.
TU-1
Xa-38
Yak
Hs-129
Me262
Etc all very capable aircraft set at pretty balanced brs
Or do you not have any AAs?
Also do you only play warthunder there guy? You know there’s thousands of other games to play
With how many games you have, you could easily play the xa-38 but you simply refuse to test it as you know it won’t come out in your favor
Great to hear, but if I wanted to ask how You feel I would do that in PMs.
Not really, Yaks have much more advantage than all aircrafts You have listed. But I guess it takes some skill to understand it.
Another great comment! I guess we wouldn’t be talking here but rather on other game forum if You would be playing something else ;)
I played XA-38 and I know what this vehicle is capable of. It is not on level of russian vehicles with 45mm. Saying stuff like that is just simply lying.
Edit: Don’t like my replies so You are going to report them? Good one.

That is impossible.
Of these, only two used a fighter as a base.
Of these, only ONE can actually do something (aside from being a free kill) about other fighters if they aren’t bots.
Also how come the Tu-1 with a worse airframe and the same 45mm cannons is a full BR higher than the 9K? Funny how that works.
How am I lying? And oh did I now?
Because it has double the ammo, 3x 1000kg bombs (that never seem to kill anything) 2 gunners, etc.
So 4x 500lb bombs are useless? all with a higher damaging cannon too? By that logic, the 45mms are useless.
The XA-38’s only downfall is a slower than fighter turn rate, still pretty quick for a twin engine.
And it’s at a lower br, of 3.7
You’ll never have as good of a setup as the yak-9K.
Their usefulness comes from their high explosive filler, and them being mounted on a decent fighter platform. They also have a great ROF, as well as good accuracy.
For a twin engine.
The Yak-9K is currently undertiered at 4.0, and it needs to go to 4.7 at the minimum. You are massively underrating it’s potential, and ignoring the fact that it’s on a great platform that’s easy to set up shots with.

What I’m being, is fair.
USA, Germany, and Japan have equally good strike aircraft.
Russia has the highest of all these already.
Therefor if the Yak goes up, all must follow.
Crazy to think a lot of you believe the XA-38 is less potent than a Yak, as most CAS kills are from bombs
No. A Do-335 isn’t equal to this because it’s stuck with AP/HVAP. Japan doesn’t have good CAS in general.
No. CAS is too good, but the Yak is more OP than most CAS.
For a whole 0.3BR you go from a heavy twin engine fighter, to an equal/better cannon on a FIGHTER plane. You are deliberately underplaying the Yaks advantages, and you’re really showing your bias right now.

the only equivalent in its anti tank top down killing ability is the ME 262 with the 50mm canon. its insanely powerful

If you’re willing to speak on it, let’s test it shall we?
Planes vs tanks
another time dont see why not, its past midnight for me. I hammer the hell out of tanks with only ground belts on Hispano 20mms. Ive been one shot by Yak and 262 canons enough times to know they are absurd
And how exactly would that work?
Custom battle, someone spawns in a tank, @ULQ_LOVER can bring out all the mentioned planes, as I’m sure he has them all.
We will spectate and so on. Bringing the optimal anti ground load out to see which is the most effective.
I’m referring to Gajin’s devs being high.
I would say out of all the aircraft the me262 has the cake as it has 106mm pen for the same explosive mass as the 45mm.
With half the fire rate, and more ammo, I see why this is so commonly played. I think the fire rate is actually too quick for the Yak to be more effective with the lack of ammo, causing more to be wasted.
I just can’t see how any of these aren’t already set at a good br.
fast fire rates are a curse but learning how to burst fire remedies that quickly.
Aircraft need different BRs for GRB across the whole board not just at high tier, the 262 50mm and the Yaks are a good example for it as a semi decent player shreds with them

Yes, it is also a larger target and is at a significantly higher BR. “Look, this plane is balanced because a plane just as good at it exists in another tree (please do not mention that the one in the other tree is a higher BR fighting stronger opponents)”. I do not see how you can say one plane is equal to another, and then with a straight face deny that they should be the same battle rating.
To be clear, the Yak-9k should not be at the same battle rating as the 50mm Me 262, but the logic of your thesis doesn’t hold to the basest of scrutiny. Battle ratings, as a whole, should be decided on the basis of an individual vehicle, and the strength of that vehicle’s lineup should only be considered secondly. Thus, it would matter little if this was the sole CAS option for Russia (which is far from the case), it still would not be placed so low.
