Because SPAA and CAP is way more powerful. The effectivenes of something is not only determined by a single weapon, it’s the entire plane.
Yea the SU25SM3 was once very broken, now it’s not, because it sits on a shit platform and it can’t deal with fox 3 spam or the new AA.
Except if fly in, get your kills and dying is good and effective in your mind.
Honeslty, i don’t care if you believe me or not.
But you yourself are saying hammers were the same amount of broken, or maybe 80% there because they are slower, and my stats prove that.
Oh and btw, if in your mind you can’t determine KDR in GRB, neither you can total kills. So a non argument anyway.
China got like negative bias to it from Gaijin. I say that as an German mainly playing Germany and China. Like so much Stuff missing or nerfed for them and in simpler Stuff like the Individualization you can make for them too; 90% of their Vehicles don’t get their historical Camouflage at all or it is only accesible on Marketplace or during FOMO Event / BP. Compare that to the dozen Camouflages and Decals others get.
And many Reports like missing spall liner accepted / acknowledged by Gaijin like two years ago…still nothing…but then they gave already much more armoured and powerful Tanks like STRV-122’s or T-90 a spall liner when China needed them more. And 99A UFP is also missing tons of Armour; DTC10-125 is nerfed; their Reload is slower than IRL too and whole Line Up is smaller and weaker than that of others who got alone more in MBTs accessible at Top than China has in total stuff there.
And you literally die to like anything in their MBTs and the Darts also kinda behave more gimpy than those of other Nations; don’t have that problem when i play Germany or my Premium USSR Line Up
And China at least at high / Top Tier; like above 9BR it could very well become an major Nation because theres still so much cool Stuff left to be added.
I mean for about half of that year it was only on a Su-25. So people weren’t too bothered because it was a good missile on a shit platform unable to use the range to it’s fullest potential.
It was not until november 2024 with the addition of the Su-34 with Kh38s where Russian CAS became truely problematic.
Then why, on a plane that’s much more effective than the Su-34 (K/D is even twice as high!), are you getting fewer kills? What impacts the enemy team more: killing 3 players or killing 2? On all the BRs I’ve played(doesn’t matter whether the bombs are smart or dumb) killing 3 matters more than killing 2. But at top tier, I guess it’s different. Please, tell me how it works there.
No, as a britain main - i was infact angry at the capabilities of the Su-25SM3 and the fact all of our air defence was incapable of stopping it. Especially with the Pantsir shutting down any CAP sorties anyone wanted to try and use to counter said Su-25
Fair, top tier GRB definitely got much much worse when they added the Su-30SM.
It was still a potent CAS plane, The F-15E being added at the same time while bing much much better was a problem for the Su-34. Tornado Gr.4 had a similar problem.
People always freak out. Hell people freaked out about the T-90M and the truely idiotic people still rank it as one of the best MBTs in game.
But I kind of phrased it wrong, let me rephrase:
“Most sensible people weren’t too bothered until they added the Su-34 and Su-30 with Kh38s”
Me never dying to Pantsir in fighters…
I died to Pantsir 2 or 3 times in CAS.
1 was intentional, 1 was flying straight at it, 1 was forgetting my ranging.
Last i checked, your plane spawns at barely 10 miles. (Back then)
And unless you want to side-scrape the battlefield by over 9 Miles, then be my guest. But you’re not exactly going to find that Su-25SM3 - let alone engage it - from that distance with AIM-9M’s or Skyflash (DF)'s.
And mate if you’re gonna just resort to the “skill issue” statement rather than actually engage in conversation, nobody is gonna take you seriously pal. Get a grip
