The J7D is too frequent, too low in BR and too strong to make the 9.7-11.7 bracket remotely fun

I should have just said top tier missiles in general. The point is they don’t change things due to balance.

fa-18c is bad but it’s not an 11.3 air frame lol, only air frame that you can say matches it is the j-7e which does beat it tbf but like j-7e is the exception not the rule

They will nerf it after they sell another x amount of units. We all know gaijin only cares for profit

Do YOU really want to play the “your stats bad, therefore, you bad” card here?

You got any source on that, all i have seen they mention its the M2, not the M3

So the J7D is OP because of comparative missiles?

Sea hawk 8.0 9B’s

Mig 21 9.7 (german premium) R60’s

Ayit 9.3 9Ds

Could be here a while…

The game needs a lot more fixing then moving the J7D from 10.7 where its strong to 11.0 where it will struggle.

11.0 J7D is a full lobby of F4S’s, mig 23’s and and at best jack viggens / F4Es= £70 please🤣

All because you have missiles that get flared exactly the same as the rest if the enemy is paying attention. If they are not than any missile does the same job.

Just remind me how i evade the ayit aim9D in my meteor again?

You need to start at wherr the game becones unblanced- BR7.0 and work from there…

thats not how the matchmaking system works, there are a maximum of 4 full downtiered players per team

I know which is why i wrote F4s , MIG23’s and…

See my earlier video of 11.0 br experience. Its a full lobby of radar slingers nearly every game.

10.7 usually plays 10.3- 11.3
11.3 gets downtiered more than any other iv played.
11.0 gets consistant uptiers!
Maybe its because there isnt many 10.0 to downtier into?

id say its the opposite - there are way too many 12.0’s

Makes sense.

Until.its sorted though 10.7 shouldnt be going to 11.0 especially when it costs £70

Personally like the US F5E- which i even got a lucky free talisman for…if J7D goes to 11.0 it would also be staying forever grounded

Ngl I bought the J-7D and it feels like a breath of fresh air for China between 9.3 and 11.3, too bad(or good thing) that is a premium since it feels odd actually being able to do something other than being easy kill, in 9.3 you deal with the 9.7/10.3 premium spam and missiles with enough G to take you out on your flareless plane, the Q-5s are in a terrible place and in a half baked state, still waiting to see a single fix for them but I guess the 16 flares are enough reason to be 10.0, I haven’t use the F104/F-5 at 10.7 but looking at their stats they don’t seem promising knowing what they are gonna be facing so this makes you question why is the only way to have some sort of fun locked behind a premium? And even better when is decompression gonna be a priority to give other jets a chance in the game?

Absolute hogwash. The F-4E is an AMAZING rate fighter.

HARDWING F-4E beats F-5E in a rate fight.

I don’t know how much I trust statshark though. U.S. airforce taught that the best speed to beat Mig-21 bis’ while rating is around 400 knots

Yeah its surprisingly underrated. While it’s a bus in most cases, it can hold turns surprisingly well. I got out turned by a F-4S in my Mirage F1.

Stuck at 1:1 kdr with the F-4E through the stock grind but now I can do better, it’s really become an enjoyable plane for me and for once something I actually look forward to playing

When it came to F-4E IRL. It was basically the F-16 of Gen 3. It more or less could outrate almost any opponent it came across. It’s why the Israeli’s loved it compared to the Neshers. So much so they made the slats permanently stick out. I kinda wish the Super Phantom was put into production because an F-4E with the TWR of an F-15A would be BONKERS.

I dunno if it’s changed, but when the F-4E could see Mig-29s and F-16s regularly. At super high speeds, 1000kmh or so. the F-4E actually turned BETTER than the Mig-29 and you could cut into his turn.

I remember remarking this on the Plebbit and some dunce went “ERM ACKSHUALLY IF THE MIG-29 CUT THROTTLE IT COULD BEAT THE F-4E”

Basically called him an idiot, I didn’t care about a vacuum in which both pilots would be evenly matched or whatever. But what I experienced saw, and had used successfully multiple times.

Mig-29 pilots did NOT expect an F-4E to keep up with them at all and it was great to just lunge a bunch of 20mm into them.
