Hilariously overperforming MER.
Anyone complaining about getting slow in their F-5 clearly is doing it wrong, you literally only need to accelerate once per match, then you can throw the plane around with max elevator input and never go below 800 km/h. The only time you need to use airbrake is if you have to land and feel like doing it properly with landing gear, instead of belly landing at 900 km/h.

I can’t think of a single plane that an F-5 beats in a dogfight aside from maybe an F-4 in certain situations.
My F-8U/E beats it
My Su-22MK beats it
Mig-21/J-7 beats it
Even the brick that is AV-8C beats it with viffing.
An F-100D could probably beat it considering i’ve beaten an F-8U in a dogfight, well I was about to but got lobotomized by a Temu F-104.
