I’d consider the later F-104 variants like the S and G to be fighter bombers, similar to the Phantom. Afaik they were used like that IRL, and it’s what they are great at in WT.
Plus, that’s mostly all that they are good for considering how bad their flight model is. They’re all overtiered by 0.3, and the ASA is an 11.3 plane at 12.0.
Every F-104 and MiG-21 which are higher than 9.3BR should be buffed to 9.3BR
because everybody plays it as bomber so A2A capability won’t matter. (No, I am kidding)
I can’t wait to see MiG-21 Bison at 9.3BR.
Dude… Both F-84F(Strike Aircraft) and B-57(Jet Bomber) share the same role in the game.
Destroy bases and throw some leads to ground targets.
It isn’t similar to MiG-23ML(dedicated interceptor) steals base from F-111F(Strike Aircraft)
The sense of entitlement is strong in some people here.^^
“All red bases belong to me. You may take what I leave”. I often say this quickly in game, so that others can stick their entitlement up their whatever.
Maybe Gaijin is biasing ‘some selected, famous jets in US’ to create conflict between players and prevent them from seeing real problems.
You disagree when other guys claim ‘US is most pampered TT’
But some other guys will disagree with you when they see some fancy jet that’s been treated too well in the US TT.
Then see, we argue with each other here. while forgetting the main topic was.
That’s a very passive way of playing though. Competitive jets tend to be the ones that people actually fear.
Yeah, if Gajin put atleast half as much effort into applying the Harrier bug reports as they put into trailers, it could very well be one of Warthunder’s best planes.
Rather than a timer make it an SP system like ground RB. Instead of waiting 5 minutes the fighter actually has to earn points through activity, enough to be able to land and rearm with a bomb load.
If we scale the SP cost, it sounds like a good idea.
Reason I’d say we need to scale it is because sometimes it becomes a massive stomp and you don’t get much of an opportunity, but the final person refuses to engage and just run constantly. One example would be someone in say a starfighter around early supersonics/late subsonics.
I guess the russia suffers because they have all these horrible dogfighters
Buff russia when, they have planes that are easy to dunk on in a dogfight.
