Funny how it’s always the single nation “mains” and “muh meta” people who are the most insufferable. If there’s nothing you’re interested on this patch because you don’t play x nation or because the new vehicles aren’t meta, too bad, you can just move on with your life.

But also more weight that offsets that thrust.
2 More missiles is a fair counter
There is no diffrance in the game from 120a and 120b

There were alot other examples when Gajin introduced new main weapon systems which were op and without equivalent. Now it could be Germany’s turn.
I still remember when all got jets with Sparrows, while German Phantoms hat to go with just 9J’s. Or Germany got no plane with guided bombs for over a year while most others had access to this tech. There are indeed some of these examples.
So why not use the EF addition to introduce new systems? I don’t think that always US or Rus need to be the first ones to get new tech. For once it could be another nation.
It isnt the not f18 that annoy us its the fact that ef and rafale are coming and there is still no f18 so when it will come it will be dead on arrival
oh no the f18 will be dead on arrival… have you seen german top tier, they have 4 planes, compared to america’s 9 planes. let them have this.
Su-33 is dead on arrival, and, unlike US, USSR doesn’t have META top tier jets in the game. Cry me a river.

I understand it is pretty weird that there was no F/A-18, but hey, in the end that is why we have updates
Also true but i dont feel bad for ussr cuz they dominate in grb and they have the r27er meta for 2 years

I would argue that ER wasn’t really meta because you could just hug the ground. Real meta was IRCCM missiles and Gripens and F-16Cs dominated that time, not Su-27. I can’t say anything about ground, but when i checked winrate per nation - germany was the best at top tier ground, not USSR/Russia.

Germany is also op in ground 2a7 is a monster
Thats a lie. Gajin confirmed in their latest q&a that russian air isnt doing bad
Not really.
Su-33 fits in perfectly below the Yak-141 at 13.0/13.3 and wouldn’t be that much different from where the JAS39A, Mirage 4000 and others like it at that br.
Has the base Flanker model, slightly more powerful engines, canards for extra maneuverability at basically any speed, even more so at low (which is sort of a bad thing across all Flankers, but I digress), and 2 extra missiles compared to the base Su-27S it’s based off of.
It will be challenging facing other jets with Fox-3 every now and then, but it’s not impossible. So, no. Not DOA.
Talking about SARH meta while multipath height was 100m is hilarious. You actually had to try to die to SARHs in that time.
Brokenly OP Gripen was the meta.

Question,does the rafale is going to get the MICA-IR ?
No.
MICA-IR without its counterparts (AIM-9X, IRIS-T, R-74, ASRAAM, etc.) wouldn’t even be considered.
Just Magic 2 and MICA-EM for now
Nope not any time soon I doubt
It is 3 tons heavier than a base flanker, so those slightly more powerful engines aren’t gonna make it better. Su-27 already bleeds way to much speed and turns into a flying brick, adding canards will only increase speed bleed because you will just pull more AoA. 2 more missiles are almost meaningless because of a simple fact that even 10 missiles on a basic Su-27 are more than enough for an average ARB match. ONLY advantage of Su-33 would be a digital RWR, and ONLY if Gaijin will model it this way. Even if Su-33 will be 13.0, Su-27 would still be a better pick.
I really hope that it is sarcasm. Please tell me that you are being sarcastic.
