i feel like they may have nerfed its performance cus its also being used by the eurofighter.

i still dont know why they secretly gave mica a bigger seeker.

Statshark doesn’t filter out AI kills?
I mean even then, if it counts AI kills for all of them then it’s still fairly representative, good enough to determine Soyuz is pretty exceptional
Idk why they felt the need to give the MICA so much angle gating, the amount of time i’ve launched on and killed something straight through their notch is insane

Possibly. I think they couldve kept it to the F/A-18C for sure but the F-15E is more debatable
Yeah go look at my KDr in the SovetSky. I think I’ve killed 14-18 players total, mostly people who shot at me first. I think I have 108 kills total or something in it.
I think the kdrs may be lower on other ships due to a few possibilities:
- Hype, everyone over hyped Ussr vehicles
- FOMO, people may have thought it was likely to be removed.
- Maybe Soviet mains who played naval focused that over other vehicles of that update.
- At least in the case of the Yamato, I noticed players in the Yamato just “expected” kills from launching a volley for some reason…
Fair. But it’s kind of negated by the fact that this applies to every ship, so even though the numbers are inflated they’re inflated across the board so it still shows the Soyuz over performing

Could just be how many people have X amount of ships of a whatever nation. Italy and Japan likely get played the least.
USA and Germany the most.
There’s a lot of factors being over looked, but to be short and sweet about it, I think they’re all pretty well balanced.
Soyuz is actually 2nd most played top tier ship. Slightly less popular than Bismarck for obvious reasons
Soyuz stats are also suspiciously good. It’s AP for example has way more filler and nearly as much pen as the best 16" AP shell ever made
See I can’t give an answer on the shell, only gaijin can.
Edit: to this day, I think the scharn is still over preforming, as even with the SovetSky, it doesn’t seem to die

I mean it lives all the shell types of the SovetSky with ease. It’s legitimately like winning the lotto if you hit the ammo and it detonates.
Like post 7.3 ground, how German shells magically don’t explode after getting destroyed, the scharn has a odd tendency to take absurd amounts of damage to its magazine, with shells hitting it 7 or more times with no detonation.
Not sure if I have clips of that anymore, I can look, but no promises, I was pretty pissed, so I clipped it to bug report it, but gaijin hates me lol, so they label everything “not a bug”
Agreed.
I think a dev server C-5 should’ve come on the F-18s, but the F-15E should’ve gone to 14.3 if they wanted it to have it. Right now, I think the EFT and Rafale should go to 14.7, with the EFT getting more accurate C-5s, and the F-15E should be 14.3 with 120C-5s. For Russia, they should get the Su-30SM2 at 14.7.
It’s not as good as aim-120s, but I’d hesitate to call it bad. The Su-30 is the only non 120 carrier I see doing BVR at the start of the match, so it can’t be that bad.

maybe USA can get AESA F-15C? or F-15SA for 14.7
The Su-30 can BVR, but typically only when the opposition decides to keep flying at the R-77-1, I wouldn’t say it’s good past… idk 12 miles though. Aim-120 I could probably squeak 16 miles out of if I’m lucky.
I think the Su-30sm is merely better than other Soviet counter parts for 2 big reasons. Radar refresh rate, and turning ability. Otherwise it might as well be a heavier Su-27sm
My favorite trick is force a turn fight, turn AOA limits off, and flip, lock an R-77-1 and launch.
it was not, mig 29 was better for air rb and sb
gripen and su27 were better
it was not at all
The F-15E was OP when it first released.
The 12.3 one is undertiered, and the 12.7 is arguably undertiered.
I will admit now, that the US doesn’t have the best plane in the game, but their air tree is still incredibly good.

- I never said by a large margin for the F-18
- The F-16 was certainly better, especially the aim-9m equipped one.
- You’re legit crazy if you think the F-15E/I wasn’t. The E got buffed the day it came out or second day, matching the engine output of the I. They are still
I’m pretty sure the fastest plane in WT acceleration wise for an afterburning aircraft And possibly top end.
Show me you know nothing, by not telling me. Sheesh
out of the three planes he mentioned only one was “the top dog” on release
the f15i has always been better than the f15e
but he said f15, which means the f15 airframe aka the f15a
it never was at all, or even close
the f16 was added against the pre nerf mig 29 with only 9l and 7f
you said f15 not f15e, which means the f15a that was added earlier with 9m and 7f
and again the f15i was and still is better than the f15e and is not a US plane
it is not, ralph beats it currently
