Serious Balance Issues with Russian Vehicles in War Thunder

@Surbaissemaxxing can you do something about this guy. He keep going off topic and just insult people when they don’t agree with him

Thank you very much mods, feel free to clear up the rest of this thread if you have the time 👍

No

Yes but so can many if not all other nations too. Since the map is only about 50×50km and the newer/better AGM65’s has about the range of that.

Not rly, only 6unguaranteed kills on a shit platform with a big chance of getting cassed without a chance of winning against a jet fighter.

The Ka-52 not anymore and that’s for all heli’s at toptier but only bc Russia has made a double blade heli is why it can still fly without a tail.

that’s all toptier helis

Airbattles? Pantsir-S1 is a ground battles vehicle…

all toptier rocket boosted(F&F) cas can be spawnlaunched(X-38MT, AGM65d/g/e. Edit: forgot to mention the new French stuff). Anyway the 95Я6 missile sucks quite alot against planes as it is very unstable and doesn’t pull hard at all, all a plane has to do is turn and SAM defeated. Yes the radar is good but it’s often buggy and doesn’t do what you want or need it to do.

No bc many Russian vehicles are also nerfed especially the jet fighters&AAMs and a bit of the Pantsir-S1’s SAM.

No, and is very much caused by skill issue as the blueside (ESPECIALLY usa) is paying their way to toptier. Whereas the other nation players is less and often is less biased to their nation making them focus more and perform better. Money can’t buy skill. ‘‘only’’ Time, courage and experience will do.

It can’t be fair when you put different things from IRL into a game.
There is no fun for all players in warthunder, we all suffer.
There is quite a bit of balance between USSR/usa.

You say that like these are things that went into service. Clearly the U.S. didn’t see any urgency to develop these things until nearly 2 decades later for a reason and they didn’t pick back up those old projects for their own reasons too.

Sep v2 is 2008 (when the contract was placed)

Crews started getting them by 2010, and by 2015 all combat teams were equipped. As a bit of context.

In production since 2005

Well, they were type classified (why it’s the “AIM-95”, not “XAIM-95”). About 300 (IIRC) production representative AIM-95 AUR’s were produced, during initial low rate production. What happened is that the option to enter full rate production was not selected, and so IOC was never achieved by any frontline units.

So depending on how broadly “entry to service” is defined, there may be some wiggle room. And it would be far less of a stretch then other ordnance, configurations and vehicles we find in game. (e.g. SRAAM as on the Harrier GR.1 / Hunter F.6, IRST, radar, ordnance, etc. on Yak 141).

Also it would have served as a more fair counterpart to the R-73 (in comparison to the AIM-9M), due to similar kinematics without needing IRCCM to be overhauled the way it was.

It also throws a quandary as to what happens in the intervening time between the AIM-9M (since they won’t fix the various bug reports that exist; #1, #2, #3)and AIM-9X Block I, as there is no other Missile available that improves kinematics above 30G without an imaging sensor and as such will not apear until that mechanic is implemented.

Isn’t that just the demonstrator? Just as abrams X is?

Idk, article says SEPv3 replacing SEPv2 which “has been in production since 2005”

https://www.army-technology.com/projects/m1a1-2-abrams-main-battle-tank/#:~:text=In%20November%202007%2C%20General%20Dynamics,to%20the%20M1A2%20SEPV2%20configuration.

This, along with a few other sources I cannot post I believe (no sekret dokuments)
… do confirm 2007-2008 to be the initial delivery / contract date.

I do see what you posted, but the few military and non military posts about SEP v2 all claim 2007-2008

For there to be a large scale contract given in 2007, there had to have been more than one fully functional SEPv2 before then

Might’ve just been a test bed, to work out kinks etc. didn’t it get a new FCU? Among a few other things?

So I’ll just my opinion in here… as someone who has every vehicle in Russia…

Aim-9ms are vastly better than R-73s

I recently got my F-15E and really the only thing that was able to semi reliably kill me was the Rafael or EF-2000, anytime a Su-27, 34 or MiG showed up, I would launch an aim-120 within range, usually score a kill, and once they launched an r-77 I just notched, didn’t even have to chaff.

But using the Aim-9m… oh my god… it is the easiest aam to use by far. Being smokeless the enemies don’t know it’s coming, WHICH is a MASSIVE advantage.
The flare resistance is insane too, unless you’re staring directly into the enemy flares.

So no, Aim-9m is already way ahead of the game.
In Simulator especially… it’s just free kills.
