How about in addition to the BR System, we have “Eras”. Each era consists of a certrain generation of Aircraft design and combat Strategies, such as early coldwar, late coldwar, modern, etc. So for example Mirages, f14 's and MiG23’s, MiG21Bis’s etc would fight in mid coldwar, Shortrange dogfights are the Main Fighting method, together with SAHR’s and the occasional Phoenix. While Planes like the f16, f15, su27, eurofighter, rafale etc would fight in the modern era, where they can launch all the fox’3s and bvr missiles they want
Creating more groups of perma-downtiers and perma-uptiers is probably not the best.

You would create a situation where certain vehicles would be permamently the weakest of an ERA and therefore only ever face uptiers and others would be at the top and only ever face downtiers.
Also what exact years would you define for each bracket?
F-15C MSIP II would technically be late cold-war not modern.

And then the more you look at it, you then need to grey the eras a bit, so you end up essentially at where BRs are applicable.

that’s how the game was set up when it was released ended up with f-86’s fighting me163’s and late props there’s a reason that they changed it
does that mean F22 could be added.
No.
BR system already balances things.
If it was era then F-14s would drop from 12.7 all the way down to 11.7, or worse the Mig-23MLD would increase to 12.7.
Why not do that everyone complains it’s never fair and that some things are fighting things they never would of?
mmm yes, pz ii vs kv1
F-15C MSIP II in game is an early 2000s upgrade, so no it is not. The wiki even refers to it as, “the F-15C MSIP II in its mid-2000s variant”
Purely because it has HMD. It is missing litereally every single other upgrade like radar, BOL, etc that it recived in the 2000s. The F-15C in-game is late 1980s/early 1990s with HMD.
no it doesn’t. it means it’s his idea.
