Strike aircraft

while playing the game i noticed something, the saab 105 get their air spawn all the time whilst my alpha jet E sometimes has to spawn on the ground and in other cases, directly above the airfield?

They are a lower rank then your alpha jet so they get air spawn

ahh k thx

Rank 1-5, strike aircraft airspawn rank 6 and up doesnt.

Its why you have stupid situations like the 8.7 Buc S1 being rank 6 with no airspawn and the 9.0 Marut at rank 5 with airspawn.

BR and number of vehicles in a rank effect that.

The 105 is mid if it goes up in BR (more likely the 105XT) it might not lose its air spawn as rank 5 simply doesn’t have that many vehicles though the XT probably won’t be added since its hard to balance.

Also Marut is just bad

It is still a stupid policy imo, where you could have Canberras and B-57s destroying all the bases before you’ve even really managed to take off in the Buc S1.

So is the Buc S1, but it doesnt get the luxury of an airspawn advantage. Tbh, they should swap position in the tree.

Yeah rank 5-6 bombers need a re-evaluation imo

That’s not as bad as an identical vehicle getting airspawn in one tree and not others (shootout to F-84F)

Yeah, that is really really stupid

Especially when most if not all of the rank 6 F-84Fs could go down to rank 5 and clear room for more stuff at rank 6…
But the core problem is airspawn being rank-based and not vehicle-based
