The Mighty RUSSIAN BIAS

i wanna talk here about the armament. The Russian missiles in the War Thunder game are much more modern than their US counterparts, the same example is the X-38 rocket, which was put into service in 2012, an ultra-modern rocket like its carrier aircraft, the SU-30SM, an aircraft that made its first flight in 2012, Compare them with the US weapons in the game - their analogues are the AGM-130 and F-15E, the missiles themselves are quite old in the 1980s, as well as the F-15E, which you made the earliest version of it with the worst radar, because there is the F-15E Late with AESA radar and more modern weapons, and I won’t even talk about the F-15EX,I’ll go back to the AGM-130, why can they only be hung on the F-15 in the amount of two pieces, in real life they could be hung in Three pieces, why are there only two of them in the game, the X-38 is hung a lot more, so add at least some SLAM missiles for the F/A-18, either a Super hornet with SLAM-ER, this will not be a big problem given modern anti-aircraft guns, It is also worth noting Air-to-Air missiles, The R-77-1 rocket was put into service in 2006-2010, its direct counterpart from that time is the AIM-120D, which was adopted at the same time, you added the R-73 rocket to the game, but you cannot add its American competitor AIM-9X, this rocket is not so scary and not it will affect the balance if you add it only for Americans , you can also consider tanks, and the fact that you added the most modern T-90M for the USSR with the most modern projectile for the Russian Federation, but you can’t add M1A2C SEPV3 to the Americans , would add the M829A3 projectile at least, I won’t even talk about the M829A4 . So why? Why did you change the balance so much in favor of the USSR?

Balance is based on capability, not year of introduction. Its not Gaijins fault that Russia is technologically lagging behind the west.

SU-30SM in game is pretty much copy paste SU-30MKI which entered service in 2001 or 2002 , made its first flight in 1997. i agree with the kh38 part tho , they should have atleast added the AGM-84E

My ME163 also shouldnt see afterburning jets with missiles but yet here we are

Actually balanced is based on player statistics

Thanks captain obvious but thats not what the question was. The question was why russia has modern equipment at similar BRs as older western equipment and how that is balanced. And i answered that.

The worst case of Russian Bias is the fact the KH-38MT is a paper weapon and Soyuz has rendered top tier naval unplayable

Hush, don’t speak. russia mains will come soon. Due to the nature of this game and Gaijin, you won’t receive much support. Therefore, the best option is to become one of russia mains and engage in the internal conflict.
