Best missiles? Shared by most nations at this point.
Best bvr? I’m pretty sure this goes to rafale right? it has the best radar as I read it.
Best dog fighter? Definitely the rafale or eurofighter as I understand it.
Best CAS? Rafale or Su34
I don’t have all of these planes, but I listen to the people who do. Just about every content creator I watch says just rafale and EF are the best planes at top tier right now.
Also I find it a bit funny since it’s a mixed match maker, you have them on both sides. Which seems pretty equal to me. Unlike GRB where where Sweden and Germany get to stomp in their OP tanks unopposed by anyone.
As I said though I don’t have these birds so my opinion is based on watching and reading of those that do.
That’s all I needed to hear to not care about the copage any further.
And before you call me a toxic bastard, let me explain a thing you may have not heard before:
Top tier is a “lab rat” for them to see how much hype a new plane can generate and how much they can stretch the other nations’ a**holes at the same time.
the one place it hasnt got the best is in dogfighter, that’s a close one between the Japanese Mitsubishi zeros and British Supermarine Spitfires. The USA has got one of both but not quite the best versions of either
That doesn’t mean they don’t have a strong line up , in fact they have the best Jet lineup for multi role fighter. Bringing up one jet to say “They are not the best anymore” is irrelevant
F15C/F16C/F15E ? What other nation have a line up as strong as these ? Not even the russian with their chubby Su34 can match. Let alone minor and Ger (which they desperately need the EF) Brtit and France for getting a single new jet ?
Germany was behind for years now but it’s not anymore, also USA is now on par with nations that received the Eurofighter. Also @Fanta_3412 got a point you can only bring one of them.
Ah yes, allow me to BVR with one of the draggiest missiles in game that is hard coded to self destruct at 50.8km, missing 37.5% of its range and a majority of its energy retention.
I have a hard time rationalizing the missile that only kills you if you fly straight is somehow the best bvr missile. Otherwise, top tier would be chock full of them.
I mean considering you get one jet in ARB, that’s exactly what it means.
Lineup is for sure better overall, but if you’re playing ARB, then yeah. It would be the best, not even mentioning that even with a lineup, being the best is being the best, it’s irrelevant of lineup.
