Skill issue skill isue thats all Russia mains say. Jesus christ say something else for once wont you? Its not a skill issue when you cant shoot down a plane with anything. I bet you struggle and cry about the t58 dont you? Skill issue, it can be penned anywhere but even 7.0 tanks, imagine struggling against a heavy tank in the big 2026. Russian mains have NO idea how good they get it, Im so tired of dying to random undertiered tanks and planes every match and getting the bare minimum amount of rp.

Yes, they got a plane with the same tech US/Israeli ones had for years.
Some things aren’t a problem until they are.

If you are referring to the skyhawks thats wrong. They only get the two guided bombs, no ccrp, have horrible flight performance when loaded down, bleed all their speed when evading, ect. The yak 130 is much better except in top speed, also the yak130s targeting optics are much much better then that on the walleyes.

Israeli one has access to 3 TV-guided bombs, has flares and AAMs.
And guess what, they all had that for literal years, but I guess TV bombs at 9.3 are only a problem when a vehicle from a certain nation gets access to them.

those two guided bombs can be used as a sight to guide bullpups from 8km away…
You could even sacrifice one of those bombs for a 16km bullpup…
They get an RWR and flares too
Ah yes russian main that have 5 nations on top tier ground and rest above 10.0 and air on top for all nations but jews which are US copy paste anyway. T58 is ok,no stab,HESH works on it as only tank. I was never any nation main, but people crying about most vehicles that are average in RU tree while others have much better equivalents always piss me off.

I forgot the Israeli one had 3, thats my bad. But also no one every plays that one that much in ground anyways, at least from my experience. Because of the lack of them in my games they have never been a problem. Yak130s show up in 80 percent of my matches and just ruin the br bracket. Also the Yak130s have ccrp which is a VERY useful feature that the A4s dont have. Also the Yak130 has FOUR tv bombs which is FOUR guaranteed kills if the pilot is good, if we take a second and do the math we can see that 4 is greater than 2 and 3. Which means the yak130 is at the same br as a plane without ccrp, has more guided bombs, and has better maneuverability. I understand its lower br because of no countermeasures, but the missiles it would need to evade anyway can be dodged by maneuvering which it does quite effectively.
Ahh yes the glorious and overpowered AAM that balances things out
The aim9b… One of the worst missiles in the game and is only considered better than even older missiles.
That’s like saying the i-go ko is better than the m2a2 because it has a gun. Don’t mind the fact said gun is completely useless in 9/10 times.
Also it should be stated, if the yak130 gets r73s it would 100% go to like 11.0/12.0, actually that be funny, do it let’s give the thing flairs and r73s so it gets sent to the black hole that is top tier jets.

Ah yes, the glorious and overpowered bomb load, where you have a single TV bomb more to toss (that some people say it also glides worse).
Crazy OP stuff right there.
That will be a separate variant
I meant rocket and bomb ballistic computers
Thats ccip, ccrp is for bombs
the KAB has 3km tracking range and zero gliding ability, it’s literally worse than the unguided rockets, and around 3km cannons and manpads should easily deal with it. I dont get this whole ‘yak-130 is op’ sentiment going around, the G.91 YS has better performance and better rockets and aim9Bs, the A4 has flares, better and more weapons, the Q5 has flares and is supersonic, it makes no sense…

It makes sense when looking at it with some different “glasses” on.

With the KAB you have to lock them, get the bomb computer on them, then drop
TV guided bombs dont require you to have CCIP cross near the target youre dropping it at, it will proceed to guide in straight off of the rail.
Obviously you shouldnt chuck it too far away from the target as its just a guided FnF bomb with point and track lock, but unlike something like paveway which functions like a dumbfall bomb from release all the way until the seekerhead can see the designation point and so your requires the CCIP cross to be near where the designation point is.
pointlock is usable and youre fighting really old SPAAs, also with sufficient speed they can somewhat glide in ok-ish
lol no it isnt
cannons no, MANPADs maybe. The trick with any CAS is to not fly like a moron, i.e. in a predictable manner.
Its 4 decent guided bombs at a low enough BR where getting downtiered is just bullying
performance maybe, better rockets no. Yak130 gets S25Os which are still the best unguided rockets and S13s which are effectively russian Zunis.
On top of that Yak gets KABs and G91 doesnt.
And Aim9Bs are whatever, you can dodge a 9B by turning, you dont even need flares.
American A4 has 2 walleyes, which are effectively KAB counterparts.
Israeli A4s get just an extra GBU8 which is once again, basically KAB500
Ayit has access to 3 extra A-Mavericks at 10.0, which is much worse BR.
The Q5A lacks any form of guided munitions
The Q5L has access to 2 chinese LJDAMs at the BR of 10.3

In a downtier
The Su-25 is OP in a downtier, the AJS37 is OP in a downtier, the A-10 is OP in a downtier.
Almost every vehicle (except the exceptionally ‘ass for their BR’ vehicles) are OP in a downtier

It could genuinely go to 9.7 and not face too many issues from looking at it.
imo purely cannon radar SPAAs shouldnt really face this thing.
