Except US planes are worse than the same plane at same BR (Israeli f15A) and Russian CAS is better with kh38 anyways. Maybe it used to be amazingly good but now the f15c has the worst arh in game, and is worse than its japanese counterpart at the same BR when it should be getting C amraams to compete with r77, mica, aam 4. F-16C is good CAS but that’s the only one for US top tier. Gaijin could add Slamraam but they don’t want to
Lmao. Su25 with good missiles vs a f16 with decent ones. Only issue with the f16 is it cant carry more than 2 agm65g. The agm65d is alright and i am hearing that they are getting a buff soon which would be great.
My current favorite plane is the harrier gr7. 4 agm65g and 4 aim9m works great. Plus crazy flare/chaff amount
Just need that Gen 1 Tpod fixed to actually be Gen 2 or even get an upgrade to Gen 3. Then the MAWS needs fixing so it actually works correctly. Finally wouldnt say no to our Full loadout, with AGM or Aim-9 on the outer wing pylons
I think you’re forgetting that the US focused on AA that were pulled on trailers and/or required several vehicles, and guess what arbitrary limitation Gaijin decided to establish regarding trailer vehicles? SPAA are not the only kind of AA, but to Gaijin they are.
Yeah, the targeting pod is a bit rough. But that load out of 4 agm65g, 4 aim9m, and 2 gun pods is amazing. Plus the vtol is fun for just sitting near their air/heli spawn when you want to be a flying rat.
Yep. I like the Harrier Gr7 as well, though do feel a tad blind without a radar (biggest mistake made by the MoD)
But yeah, fingers crossed TIALD gets fixed. TIALD 400 is modeled as Gen 1 in game. Was Gen 2 IRL. So thats both the Gr7 and Tornado that should be Gen 2. Would help a lot in my opinion.
Then we just need to wait the Gr9A. Better Engine, HMS, hopefully Gen 3 Tpod and then Brimstones.
Strela doesn’t use Iglas (or a manpad like stinger or mistral). It uses the 9M37 missile which is basically an aircraft size missile mounted on a ground vehicle.
Thats not arbitrary. Arbitrary would be the US having a full self contained system that is comparable to spaa in game and gaijin explicitly refusing to add it but not refusing to add similar vehicles to other nations.
Modelling multi vehicle systems requires time and effort from gaijin as they aren’t in game and would be complicated to decide how to model one player controlling multiple vehicles. Not to mention that most of said systems are vastly superior to what is already in game as well.
Also the USSR focused much more on ground based AA systems than the US that is a fact. They have plenty of multi vehicle systems as well as self contained systems.
ok i play japan too?
maybe make use of its hydropneumatic suspension?
if you’re using anything aside from the S-250 rockets then you’re using the su25k wrong. Yea the laser guided rocket on it is shitty but the unguided S-250 rockets it has is broken as hell because it behave like 750lb bomb and travel fast, making it much easier to hit target than dumb bombs. Pair it with the stupid survivability of su25 and you can just tank as many Stingers missiles as you want. Maybe the reason su25k did not go up in br is because it sells like hot cakes, same with 2S38. Also you guys act like mavericks is a one-hit-kill missile lmao, it’s far from it.

Yeah, those rockets are insanely OP
Yeah no shit also thats not the K
But to use them you have to fly within 3-4km which means every spaa can shoot you down unlike the A10 which sits 10km away lobbing mavericks
The Su-25 will die after one stinger 90% of the time especially rear aspect as it kills the tail controls
Have you not seen the Dev server lmao same goes for hellfires i dont want to see anyone ever complain about that 1 in 100 shot where the maverick doesn’t kill ever again
2s38 dies to overpressure from 75mm HEAT literally just bring HE or HEAT and its not an issue or just aim just below the drivers port to oneshot it like everyone else does

mfw big rockets make a big boom
watch, theyll cry about the 2s38 even after the nerf, even if the 2s38 is an ohk from every side
theyd rather cry about the 148 ready rack than to learn to fight it(not like youll have to much after the update)

yea just pre-flare? works against every AA missile except Strela. And realistic range I’ve able to get a lock with Mavericks in real battle are 5-6km cuz the camera got no zoom. 10km lock are when you get a perfect clear sky weather, enemy sitting in the middle of the open field, they don’t move behind cover, standing still, and you knew exactly where they are. In real battle you can’t see anything past 8km unless its a snow map or something. The footage you use does not happen in real battle.

nah I always need 2-4 stinger hits from my LAV to kill it

Did they buff the mavericks and hellfire in dev server? I haven’t tried it out

No one use HE or HEAT at 10.0. Also im not gonna get into argument about 2S38 here so ill leave it at that

Yeah flares are good but what is if you dont have anny flares jus
t use he rockets forks for me well
I am a CAP main and I stopped playing within the BR range of Strela and Pantsir. It would have been fine, if all nations got comparative vehicles. Yet only one nation does. If you play against USSR, they can CAS with impunity as fighters can’t CAP and NATO missile SPAA got heavily nerfed last year. USSR has monopoly on the skies. This is not fun nor is it balanced.
Consequently all the cash cow vehicles are being sold for high / top tier nowadays and guess what, I didn’t buy a single one for the sole reason of USSR top tier being too OP. Thank you Gaijin, for saving my money ahaha.
I just stick to 5.7-8.7. It’s the most balanced BR range for combined RB anyway. I save my money and sanity. Though sometimes I wish I could take my top tier fighter jets for a spin in CRB.
