No, I totally agree man.
Personally think the Pantsyr should’ve never come and should get replaced with TORM1. But if the trend is going to continue, Russia is always going to be the star of the show for each major update, always getting something new and shiny that makes them the best in a certain bracket.
Imo, Sweden, Israel, UK, Italy and Japan should be Gaijins focus for the next 3 or more updates.
Israel needs light tanks, folders and variety beyond “magach #47372”
Japan needs a competent anti-air
Italy, Sweden and UK needs a far better top tier jet, something like Eurofighter DA.2
Uk needs light tanks and SPAA
Italy needs SPAA
The big 3 could get stuff - USSR wheeled vehicles, Germany needs SPIKE put on Puma and more MBTs for a lineup, USA need a plane with a thermal pod and guided bombs like the AV/8B
I don’t see any reason for SU27 to be added though. The MiG29 is the best A2A platform rn.
i could be wrong here but the f14b has a thermal pod doesnt it? russia is actualy need an thermal pod which i would be ok with on the new SU 25 variants
F-15 is superior to Su-27 in airframe performance & radar. Just not R-73s.
On top of that, Soviets still lack a 2nd 11.7 MBT.
ER obliterates in the same manner Aim-7F does, it just goes faster. That’s its schtik.
F-16 out-ranges, out-climbs, and out-performs Mig-29s.
Also it appears you support giving R-73s to Mig-29s seeing as you want them to be able to compete against F-15s & Gripens.
Sweden has the best ground lineup in the game. Gripen was already confirmed for this year.
Israel & Japan get F-15.
UK gets AMRAAMs.
And that means R-73s on Mig-29, or new aircraft for Soviets & Germans.
There is no “big three”.
SPIKE PUMA isn’t in-game currently.
Eurofighter is vastly superior to Su-27 even in a nerfed state.
F-14B does, yeah, but a single guided bomb plane is rough when othere have multiple. It’d be good to have variety and what I mean, is that there’s room for additions there.
Totally forgot Italy got the F16, my bad. I don’t play that nation often, but they definitely need a better SPAA. Same with Israel, but really the whole tree needs work. It’s a mess.
The mig 29 is vastly superior to the f16, there is a reason everyone used the mig 29 in the air superiority e sports tournament or you want to tell me you fly better then them?
more like big 2, US and ussr, germany fell behind a lot in ground updates, but china is developing to a new memeber of big 3
ehh preference, most hate the pantsyr more because it simply has way to much range and can see spawning aircraft
In fairness, TORM1 can see spawning aircraft, but it has to at least wait a breif while before engaging. Pantsyr can just fire immediately as you spawn in its kill range
Sorry, i’m not saying that USA should be a priority. I’m just saying if there’s something to add to it - it’d be a laser guided bomb carrier like AV/8B. Of course there’s other nations that come first
Soviets have 1 MBT at 11.7. 11.3s are nice backups, sure, but they are still backups.
Just as you wouldn’t bring M1A1 or M1A1 HC as your first tank in a top BR match.
I’ve never had an Aim-7F self-detonate, so I wouldn’t know that experience. Aim-7F is also BVR, exceeding the Mig-29’s radar range by 20km.
Pantsir can’t hit a mach-1 target going a hint of perpendicular to it, while the TOR-M1 can hit maneuvering targets with ease.
Also what’s with the double standard? Sweden’s allowed to have padding but not Germany or USSR when both have less top tanks than Sweden…
AMRAAMs aren’t what’d make the F-15 great, trust me on that.
And no, Eurofighter is a minimum of 0.3 BRs higher than Su-27 in capabilities.
“Get the most.” = “Have to grind more than all other tech trees thus the incentive is actually for the other tech trees.”
@x_Shini F-16 is slightly more difficult to master, but is a superior airframe to that of Mig-29.
I can tell you I fly my F-16 better than all of them in their F-16s.
Germany BTW has the best Mig-29 in the game due to slightly lower weight, and it still gets beat by an F-16A Block 10 in a dogfight.
Mig-29 is strong for sure, but there’s a reason F-16 is its equal.
Also one more fun-fact, Mirage 2000 is a superior dogfighter to Mig-29 the higher the altitudes get.
Again so you are saying you fly the f16 better then every e sports participant in that tournament?
And the differences between the german and russian mig 29 are so small most players wont notice, they arent that big
“equal” the mig 29 still is the better of the 2 a good bit because of vastly more superior missles
doesnt change that russia has one of the most competent line ups , thanks to their multi role compatibility which gajin didnt yet implement in others nations like 2S38 proxy compared to puma ahead, a good bit the russian tanks are 11.3 is because they lack mobility but they still are potent in defense and attack and have gen 3 thermals which other nations lack
but the pantsyr has guns as well which inhibits low altittude approaches
dont know about you but i made 45km kills with the ER
well he is basicaly saying all esports guys are wrong that the mig 29 isnt the best, but it developed more into russia doesnt need sth top tier for next few updates since they got more then enough stuff in recent patches
merkava Mk3 11.0 M1A1
M1A1 11.0 better speed, armor, round, reload
T80UM2 11.0 better foward speed, armor
type 90 11.0 worst round but reload in 4 sec and move significently faster
MK3 was fine at 10.7 but I guess we can’t have a nice tank in a minor nation…
trully another War Thunder loving israel moment
