yeah, basic NCTR would be nice to have, but im fine with the current config. certainly one of my go to planes to grind events with now.
True. The 12.7- 13.7 hole is real.
Cant see how it can be fixed when we have same jets with massivly differnet spec at same BR… then the flip side = flanker no fox 3 13.0. Flanker fox 3= 13.3.
Its a bad mess. Still.think WT is great but out of so many jets theres like 20 that actually compete throughout the full game
Su-30Mkk and M2 AVE should be 13.7 or 14.0, rather than F-16C go down. I don’t like it but I suck at top tier air so it’s realistically a skill issue on my part, but overall it’s fine where it is.

If that wasn’t obvious enough, it’s not as bad as 40 cause it has the upgraded engine
If 120 CMs instead of 60 isn’t an improvement then I don’t know what to tell you
US F-18s have the same CM count as F-16C
EHEM all of the premium Su-30’s
At least for sim I wish most of the F-16’s didn’t get massively overpowered due to being assigned the 14.3 bracket.
And maybe they should also add the 1001 missing features still pending, like the SMS, NCTR for recent APG-68 platforms, etc.
Ik the cockpit mfd has provisions for nctr for the f-16 but is there any documents that actually state that the radar itself has nctr?
Yeah, there was testing for APG-68(V)7 iirc, I have the document on my computer, said implementation has also been reported and shouldn’t be a problem for other variants like the APG-68(V)9 since that radar is a further development with SAR (which is quite the capability furthering the overall power of the radar)
I agree , the snail doesnt.
Same BRs for the NETZ’ one has 3 x the CNs
Same BRs for the f18s like the sweedish version with many more flares, hmd, engines sat in same BR as f18s that dont.
J35 no flares- 10.0. J35XS flares and more missiles= + 0.3
Meenwhile jaguar no.flares 9.7. Jaguar with flares 10.7.
Etc etc etc
If you can make sense of it LMK
Oh man, this take is so hot I thought this was a TigerTank post.
Here’s the community report I mentioned
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/9SlVTxINGbUl
Ah so it’s just typical gaijin laziness
Oh dear, if you only knew how lazy Gaijin can be when it comes to sensors and capabilities, even with Russia (a nation often regarded as the best when it comes to sensors and capabilities correctly modeled) they still have problems, my favorite example is how the MiG-29SMT is still missing a detailed MFD page for engine parameters lol.
Or not go too far, how the EF-2000’s (non-AESA) X-ray model is of an AESA radar instead of the mechanical ECR-90 haha…
I still like reporting these issues myself but it gets tiring to not have them approved or even considered.
If think the word you’re looking for is powerkrepted
The Prem Su30s just need to go to 13.7 the chines 1 specifically the F-16C is prob the most balanced plane in the game for its BR.
BR compression at its finest if we’re being precise.
Yep
The only f-16s that are bad in sim is the f-16i and f-16 aj.
All other f-16s do just fine
Totally, I can vouch the F-16C Barak II is amazing, just not so much when 14.3 or 14.7 comes into the mix.
not really the player i guarntee hes stockgrinding right now its got the most nightmarish stock grind basically anything with 120s is a nightmare to stock grind
Holy skill issue
Average US player moment
