the netz mod and the netz in the tech tree need to be one lowerd in BR 2 decompression for 13.7-12.0 the netz gets missiles that can be flared off with IR missiles it’s only fun when it meets 12.0 and 12.3 which is never and for it to be 80$??! and prob get one idiot that goes “OH ThE NetZ Is PErFectLy wHeRe IT’s At” when they played it once got 2 kills and went back to there SU-30
Lowering things in BR is not decompression
The Netz is just sad. At the same BR sits the F-16C premiums with 6x Aim-7P and 2x Aim-9L (someone correct me if I’m wrong) and the Netz Mod is barely an upgrade over the F-16A to warrant 12.7. You won’t be needing all these flares anyway. The French Magic 2 F-16 is 12.7 BTW.
I think you mean the F-18 Premium. There is also the fact that the premium Netz has the correct CM count of 180 while the TT version only has 60.
You simply can not put it any lower because:
A) It will be a strict upgrade over US F16 blk.10. Something something premium bias, or P2W even?
B) The week after some noname will make a thread on it, whining how this thing ruined 11.3 or something etc etc, demanding to put it back to 12.7. So pretty much what you just did, but in reverse.
And then what?
Speaking of which, thats the “beaty” of this BR range.
Put it to 12.3 and it will eat alive absolutely anything it encounters.
13.0 would put it into the state akin that of gripen A, but even worse.
Suddenly it being 12.7 doesnt sound half bad, does it? Compared to other options, that is.

there’s already a f16 at 12.3 the only different’s in the netz is it’s back rotors are like an inch bigger and it has pythons PYTHONS ARE ALREADY AT 11.3
No, since I have common sense I can just compare the 12.7 French F-16 to every other 12.7 and find out it curb stomps every other 12.7 into dust.
This does not matter. Pythons are at 11.3 on drastically worst aircraft who also carry fewer of them. The problem with the Netz going lower is compression. Ask for decompression instead of this nonsense.
Netz is a sidegrade to the f16a at least the tt one so yea it should be 12.3 even if it means slightly better 12.3
There is no python 3 below 11.7 and even that is on a event kfir with only 2
On the tt its the kfir c7 at 12.0 with 4 missiles (gods know why)
After that u have kurnass 2k at 12.3!! With 6 p3
Same br as f16a!
The Thai F-5E FCU and F-5T SCU have 2x Python 3s at 11.3.
I still don’t think the F-16 Netz should be lowered for that purpose. It is way better than the 9L.
Sorry but the Netz literally is perfect for its BR, sure uptiers are horrendous but the same can be said for almost anything at any BR. The Netz offers an amazing airframe with amazing missiles, hell id take the Python3s over Aim9Ms any day, alongside good countermeassure count,a useable radar and decent rwr for what its worth, quite literally my favorite 12.7 (also yes the french F16 needs to go up 100% idk who consumed what to come to the conclussion that its fine at 12.7 while the TT counterpart with worse missiles is 13.0).
Oh u right i forgot japan has python 3 too
Python 3 is bit better but not a br higher better
It has acceleriotn and pull but pays in distance and flare resistance its a sidegrade to the 9l more then an upgrade and until we gonna get big decompression it should be 12.3
More so when the premium netz is same but better at the same br and we all can agree that the premium netz is bad at its br
Pretty sure they have the same Seeker. Ideally, decompression. The Python 3s acceleration and speed means it travels more in a shorter amount of time, which is vital in most situations. The Sidewinders also suffer from not pulling a lot, which is sort of fixed in the Python 3. Nevermind the fact it has triple the CMs. Ideally the F-16A OCU (Belgium) goes up to 13.0 as it is closer to the F-16AM than the Netz
Same sensitivity yes but the seeker is bigger meaning it will go for flares more
Again yea p3 is a bit better cuz it feats the meta but not a br raise better
Like aam3 and 9m
Aam3 is better by range and but pull but it diesnt make the f15j higher in br
Same here
It’s because Gaijin sees the Python as equivalent to IRCCM somehow. The Netz vs OCU (Belgium) is a perfect example, or the fact that the Python 3 is after the 9M in newer modifications. The F-16A OCU (TH) and F-5TH TCU have the Python 3 in Rank 3 Modification with the 9M at Rank 2, while F-15A / Baz has the 9M as a Rank 4 Mod. and Python 3s as a Rank 3 Mod… So in newer vehicles, the Python 3 comes after the 9M and can be seen as better somehow?
I don’t know, its quite odd. I find success in the Python 3 on the F-16A OCU but I also have 9Ms that I can use in side-aspect and AIM-120s for longer range + aware enemies. I don’t think that the Python 3 is good enough to warrant +0.3 BR but the Netz (Mod) is superior to the F-16A having more CM and Python 3s. The Belgian OCU should just go up. The TT Netz struggles from decompression, better than the F-16A at 12.3 but not better than the other F-16s at 12.7 (F-16AJ + F-16A OCU + Netz (Mod)).
Therefore I don’t think that the Netz can really move without causing balancing issues, and if it stays then it is inferior. Decompression and move the OCU up.
By extension, Thai OCU should lose the ahistorical AMRAAMs and HMD. It could also be at 13.0 with the Belgian OCU as they’d have similar loadouts (6x IRCCM).
Examples
F-16A OCU (TH)

F-5TH TCU

Baz / F-15A (ISR)

Exacly but it wont be op at 12.3 since it isnt rly a big upgrade
Its the same f16a but with p3 thats it
I dont understand ur saying netz mod shouldnt be 12.7 then more so the tt netz which must get downtierd
I’m saying that the Netz (both) can’t go up or down or stay without causing an issue because of compression. The TT Netz is worse than all other F-16s at 12.7 (including Mod) but is better than the F-16A at 12.3. The Netz (Mod) is much worse than the OCU, which should be 13.0 anyways.
In an ideal world, we’d have decompression and both Netz can be at the same BR without getting uptiered to JAS39C, F-15C/J, F-2A, Su-27SM, etc., while still being higher than the F-16A.
example
12.3 - F-16A
12.7 - Netz, F-16AJ
13.0 - F-16AM + F-16A OCU
…
14.0 - JAS39C (+ other current 13.7s)
Sorry if it’s not clear, I’m just saying that I can’t see a world where Netz (Mod) is the same BR as the F-16A.
If it goes down, it’s too good
If it stays, it’s bad
If it goes up, it’s trash
