Despite the airframe being somewhat decent, is not the best in my opinion, I’d say it’s just a quick research vehicle. Although I don’t have enough knowledge in air battles.
In ground the Type 16 (FPS) may be a good option for a sniping vehicle, it has access to Type 93 APDS-FS one of the best at its rank and battle rating but the vehicle has a rather steep curve of learning.
If you like simulator however, A-10A (Early) is a good option between air-to-air and air-to-ground engagements.
@Stona_WT do you mind specifying which vehicles do you refer, in the list, some are unclear like:
The Japanese a-v8s matador is probably one of if not the best harrier in the game imo in arb (and yes I have them all), it’s also brilliant for air sim too
Yep. 9.7 is a very strong BR for the overall FM, higher BR Harrier 1s like the SHar have to leverage every single micro advantage to stay in the fight, but at 9.7 those advantages make them good. Unlike others like the GR1, the AV-8S has 240 flares and can pre-flare like mad, which also mitigates the harriers really big weakness at the moment which is IR signature and that again is only really relevant in uptiers due to the BR. It also, whilst its a mixed advantage given the BR, it also has the best RWR below 10.0 and is the same as found on the 13.0 Sea Harrier FA2.
The test matches do not always (usually?) give a proper test for base bombing. Also, it sometimes depends on what BR (up or downtier) you get into. Higher BR’s bases have more “HP”. Check out @ILEGIONI 's spread sheet for more detailed inforrmation about what it takes to destroy a base. On the left you can see information about the BR differences, for a specific plane (Screenshot below shows BR info location on his spreadsheet) :
Side note screenshot for @ Morvran_ : He is showing H.E. 1000 x5 for the GR.1, fwiw. Not sure if you want to test that out. He usually has the most efficient recommendation for ordinance. Maybe he recommends the bombs so you can still do ground units if no bases available? Idk.
(still going to add another screen showing how some are different depending on BR, but looks like the AV-8S is the same for all of its BR ranges)
Example of how up/down tiers can change the bomb requirements. In a 4.7 BR match, the B-17E can destroy 4x bases, but in a 5.0 BR+ match, it can only destroy 2x bases (and 1/2 of another base) Also, hover your mouse over the BR numbers for additional/more detailed information:
Another note about @ILEGIONI 's spread sheet, if you see a “?” mark, hover your mouse over it and he has additional information about how you can vary your loadouts to your liking:
Side side note, I should probably have read the FAQ sooner 😂 I would highly suggest reading through the FAQ section:
Update news has been announced on Ps5, but there is no actual sale. Why is the price still the same as before the sale?
I am subscribing to psn special.
Game service starts with milk, but doesn’t apply discounts?
That’s why you can’t do it to Wot.
It is a waste of my money and time I have invested in fraudulent policies.
