Top Tier Russian Fighters are worse than nearly all of their competition

Imagine a 29S, or even a 29M 🤤

Read the name of the thread again also if we talking Major Germany literally have no worth using top tier fighter beside the 29G.

Because most of the US main are peak horrible at the game, they suck lmao. There no point in arguing about it. The issue of US ground player can’t play well enough without their Abram being borderline broken ? Like one single weakspot being the turret ring and they cried about it for posts after posts after posts. Russian having one post about their Air being peak horrible and somehow that relate to other nation and the US stuff

Most of mains suck, mister.
Cause first, they lack perspective, second they don’t have enough experience in more than —most of the time— one playstyle, and third, will always appeal to their personal experiences against vehicles or platforms they’ve never played with.

Abrams are not broken, neither on par with the current meta vehicles. They’re average leaning good vehicles that have an absurd skill ceiling to compensate the platform’s disadvantages.

That’s how it works i guess, people here like Alvis or a guy named something like casino really enjoy moving the goalposts to make a point and deflect a topic around an argument. As it is apparently not forbidden, i don’t see why i shouldn’t do it.

You might want to read what I wrote again , also if we talking meta vehicle. The game have like 3 nations having meta vehicle, the minor nation coping and seething.

I don’t mind about going off track but if you want to talk about such thing then might as well go to their own thread not cherry picking minor nation and their lack of competitive jet when I explain why USSR jet suck. Also abram being le bad , US jets being le bad have a lot of them , you could go there if you want to

A. By “single weakspot” you mean the entire hull of the tank, not just the turret ring.

B. The turret ring has been known to be blatantly incorrect and has had a bug report accepted for over a year, if it’s ever fixed it would actually be able to survive auto cannon rounds frontally.

Cope , go complain about it in other thread, don’t talk about it in air thread. I can’t be bothered with this

That doesn’t work if the fox3 player shoots and goes defensive. Then your fox1 reaches the target slower than the fox3 because you are forced to keep flying towards the opponent then they can run away. The very nature of fox3s ensures that they’ll always have the virtual speed advantage. Worse still, even if your missile does manage to connect first that won’t stop theirs from gunning for you.

The big issue is bringing SARH’s to top tier means a missile you have to commit to, having to keep a constant radar lock for any long period of time is a huge vulnerability.

You can always shoot an ER further than the enemy, and plus you can stealth guide so they don’t know besides a split second launch warning. If you lose track of a target, just switch.

This is an older clip but you can see that I’ve managed to kill an enemy and have plenty of time to defend because I launched my ER at an extreme range and I managed my closure.

I haven’t tried this tech against the F-15E’s though and I doubt it’ll work very well.

None of that is relevant. You’re always going to be at disadvantage in a BVR fight when using Fox1s. The requirement that the host plane needs to lock the target is always going to make you vulnerable. Sometimes amidst the chaos the enemy will fail to capitalize upon your vulnerability but you were still vulnerable.

Not if you launch at an extreme range. That’s the one advantage of the ER (if you manually loft).

I mean they clearly tried in the video. 2 AMRAAMs and a Phoenix were after me.

In an equal shorter range joust no doubt I would’ve lost with the ER.

USA has the best equipment in real life - why wouldn’t it have best equipment in game too?

That is assuming your point about Abrams being meta makes sense, which it doesn’t

Because it’s a PVP game and it need balance.
Or else, since US has “the best equipment in real life”, might as well put them at BR 18.0 and let them fight each other.

Sound like the player fault rather than the jet being strong. Still doesn’t proof anything in the bigger picture , you got a kill cause enemy didn’t bother to go defensive. Su-27/mid29SMT is still one of the worst top tier jet in the game , with SMT being the worst

Meaning you still at a disadvantages bro , why bother trying to sugarcoat it.

Exactly.

Gaijin is doing their part in trying to balance things that shouldn’t be able to be balanced.

For example, they made Western SPAA inferior even though that’s clearly not the case.
