hitting people with a fox 3 in f15E is by no means fun they should have stopped at aim7s and r27ers and split modes it is so boring killing people from ten miles away
If you play the META always with missiles, you realize that it is merely a fictitious attempt, as would be the fox-3 missile combat, it is merely a missile spam without tactics.
It’s interesting to me that MiG-21 and MiG-23’s engines have their war thrust setting, yet MiG-29 doesn’t.
If MiG-29 has war thrust it should help it out quite a bit in terms of energy retention/sustained turn rate, as well as acceleration and climb.
The MiG-29 engines are super nerfed, whether with afterburning or not, and everyone knows that, but in a very strange way, gaijin continues to keep this artificially like this.
hitting people with a fox 3 in f15E is by all means fun they should add everything well after aim7s and r27ers and not split modes it is so fun killing people from more than ten miles away
i just dont enjoy it so its far more fun to rely on skill instead of how good your missile is
Interesting, I’ll have to read through these all.
If you are interested in seeing more documentation, contact me
Because in real life Russian planes are garbage…

That’s not an excuse for imbalance.

If we talking real life then a lot of russian stuff should be fixed to meet their “Garbo irl” and if you want real life you could go and join your nation army instead of larping in a russian made game.

That is not an excuse for a video game. Which is what War Thunder is, it is a game that can be balanced to make things fair for everybody.
I would not trust this article as it gets basic facts wrong, it says the R-77 is lighter than the AMRAAM when it is in fact heavier
This is incredibly delusional, it’s as maneuverable as the best F-4 Phantom’s and has acceleration to mach 3 at 18 km.
Don’t conflate having an actual fuel range with poor performance.
where does it say it
