Thanks, The AV8C its now unplayable in 9.7 due to the new planes in that br
But doesn’t guarantee top tier will see any benefit
True, visual mistake then. Thanks for correction.
Hmmm so if it was such a balanced plane, why do you perform so much better in it than in your F-5C and F-4S?

I think they should put the LRF modification instead of a normal one even if the system doesn’t use a laser for ranging, as it clears up any misunderstandings.
Ngl after br changes I still see the IRIAF performing just fine in lobbies. I mean the Fakours are still faster than the R-27ER past 6 km and pull more delta on top of that making them the best fox-3 in the game.

Top tier isn’t the only tier in the game.
But it’s the one most heavily in need of decompression…you have about 1 to 2 BRs or tank sat at the same BR
Lile the other guy said, top tier is far from everything and the br that I like by far the least in ground. (Mainly because it feels like 4 grown men with greatswords fighting in a small sandbox with the map size but that’s beside the point.)
Even if you consider top tier it’d be awfully cool to have stuff that’s a direct upgrade like the 2A7/122Bs to actually go up in br. There’s zero reason why such a big upgrade is the same br as a 2A5 let alone other stuff like the Ariete.
Top tier definitely needs to be decompressed, but so do ~8.0 as technology gap there is just brutal.
I’m fine with either getting some help.

Thr 7.7-9.0 range kills me in how many horribly balanced vehicles are there. I still dream of the day that my Type 87 RCV becomes usable as more than a spectator car again…

Yeah, you can have vehicles that have full stabilization, LRF and darts that go against vehicles with none of that.
To make things worse, in some cases only two BR steps are separating such vehicles, not even a full uptier lol.
Ah, anyone else not finding the Iranian F-14 at 13.0 an issue? F90s are still doing their thing, you still get a bunch of down-tiers to farm F-4S:
I won’t say no to giving it all-aspect IR missiles, but it’s still a fun machine as-is.

Yeah the lol was supposed to indicate that was a joke.
I was also saying it is the example of why things need to be decompressed. It shouldn’t have to fight Aim120 but it also shouldn’t stomp everything below it.
That’s why I was confused why so many people were complaining. I play The F15A for the downteirs and it rarely gets upteired because of the F4S spam.

Maybe because I somewhat care about it. I don’t really care for the F-5 or Phantom. The Tomcat, however, is what I play Warthunder for. Turning and Burning “Anytime Baby” :)
For me, 10 games played and 9/10 of them were uptiers into TT lobbies. There, you’re genuinely dead weight.
I’m glad you managed to do well though. I’ll get some more experience with the new BR. Hopefully, it’s not as bad as those 10 games.

Yup, and you can even catch the 14.0s off-guard because they typically wait to as close as 20KM to even launch their AIM-120, while you’ve launched your F90 from 70-80KM out and have been guiding it to them the whole time.
You just become a missile bus - fire F90, go back to airfield and repeat. Though, I have gotten a few R27 kills, but it typically ends in me dead right after it.
Maybe you were just supper unlucky because U was playing the F15A last night and got a good amount of downteirs and even if I didn’t I could still get some kills. If you think your dead weight drop the Fakors and bring something else.
They also never expect you to fire a SARH missile so they sometimes eat those, but my favorite thing is where they completely forget you can dog fight. So unless it’s a Typhoon or Rafael i’ll abuse them in a one circle. However if it’s a typhoon or Rafael i’ll either try to out run them or third party them because there flight model is crazy nuts.
