I am an extremely experienced player. I say this as a reference to why I can say what I’m about to say. Every single non-IRCCM missile in this game is a 1 flare. I do not understand where people get this idea that this or this irccm missile is flare resistant. You can say a 9J is more flare resistant than the R-60. The 9J, 99% of the time, will still go for the first flare fired.
But yes:
The problem is you are putting missiles that auto-kill any flareless jet at 9.0 facing korean era jets.
Before suggesting lowering a plane in BR, consider how the lower BR planes can, or cannot, deal with that plane, then realize that it’s better to send everything around that plane upwards instead. Those supersonics you mentioned in the OP? send them up instead. And to consider those planes, send everything above them higher too.
Ideally, I think bombers at jet tiers should die if an opponent takes an interception path towards them, and if it’s a straight chase, the bomber, if unmaneuverable, should be able to escape with speed. This would give a fighting chance to everyone.
Ive flown both vautours and the saar, and the vautour is genuinely the better plane, I can’t express into words just how abysmally dogshit the saar truly is, you will struggle against an a4e early in a dogfight.
the opposite! the vautour can move and its got excellent speec and acceleration.
nah, the vautour IIN at 8.0 would be ridiculous, its already very strong at 8.3.
