f4e is without a doubt one of the worst 11.3
Low CM count? You sure? You get 30 large CM’s, alongside 60 regulars. That’s pretty good IMO.
“useless rear-aspect missile” 9j’s are pretty decent imo. Their short burn time makes them harder to spot, and they do ignore flares if launched close enough to the target.
Low ammo? 650 rounds of 20mm Vulcan ammo is just fine.
The only point I agree with you on is the Radar. It’s absolutely abysmal if used below 1000m, even on targets above the horizon. Wish we had a later model in the US TT with CAA mode/TISEO.

At best? Its likely still better
The 9is short burn time makes them extremely short range(less than aim9b), thats not a good thing, they just dont work well. There is no universe in ehich the f4e is a good plane. Bad missile all around useless radar and a decent flight model dont make for a pleasent experience at 11.3 and the br it entails.
This is false. The 9J doesn’t even have a shorter burn time than the 9B.

it doesnt have a shorter burn time, it does have less energy and less range.
