Why would you use it over the XS? Because you don’t have it maybe?
The XS is a premium.
Let me introduce you to the Ar 234 B-2 and the F-117
XS used to be good but sadly not so much anymore as its constantly in mig 25 lobbies. The J35 I cant even imagine.
The F-117 has higher chance of a kill to be fair.
XS is still great. a few mig25 from time to time dont change that

No, it doesn’t.
I don’t see the reason to nerf the reload time of the CT-CV and the Boxer MGS to 7.5 seconds, and keep the CV90105, which has pretty much the same gun system at 5 seconds. They already faced a rough competition at 10.3 with the CV90105, and it’s not like they are great performers. I believe they all should keep the 5 second reload time, and maybe, move the CV90 to 10.7.
The CV90105 uses a different turret.
The nerf happened for realism reasons.

Very simmilar but different autoloader mechanism. the cv90105 has a smaller magazine and slightly different autoloader so it remained at 5s
The NATO markers are inaccurate.
For example light tanks should have a slash through the symbol. Wheeled vehicles need wheel icons. The anti-aircraft guns on air RB maps are marked as anti-tank guns. Tank Destroyers are marked as artillery when they should be marked as armored anti-tank guns. ETC.
The whole thing needs a review.
M24 loses smoke launchers after I’ve put in the RP and SL.
I tried Mirage 10.0 and XS a few days ago and its not just a few mig 25s. XS / iiic are both just food now if you fly high.
Just not worth playing at all. Kfir the same or anything that is blind to J.
this update was absolutely NOT ready. bravo for the bug reporting moderators for NOT doing their job!:

Then dont fly high? I have great fun and quite good success staying low. dont meet people where they perform better. make them meet you where you do best

Not sure about the other reports, but I am pretty sure the removal of timed fuzes on those rockets was done on purpose.
While the ability to set distance fuzes on those rockets was fun, it wasn’t realistic. Can’t have fun in this game.
Are you telling me to not get in a dogfight with a Zero while flying a boom-n-zoom fighter?
Doritos are only good with height. Theres just better options as they are not even fun anymore. Used to love the XS too
xD no they arent? they are amazing as low level rats. i have 800 games in the thing primarily being a low level rat and it does great. will do even better now with surprise SARH missiles.
The j35xs specifically wasnt very good with height. with no radar missiles you had literaly zero reason to climb other than maybe getting an energy advantage but you just become easy targets for radar missiles and with only 12 countermeasures yeah. i could never imagine trying to do high altitude stuff with it
Height = potential energy the thing the dorito needs. Yh u can make it work, still a good grinder just not like it used to be as any actual dogfight = surprise mig 25
The 10.0 doritos even with no cms used to be fine, could dodge most missiles/ use rockets. A lot different when the 25 is in every game
I need the German mirage… but its one of the only nations im not TT :(
this is big bullshit. the R4/M, Bordgranate 21 and RZ. 65 could do this! they are specifically airburst for anti bomber use.

Now that Bullet Hell and Nuclear Escalation are part of Air RB, do these count toward progress of Events, Pages of History, and Battle Pass?
not really. i dogfight competently in it from low altitude. just pick your fights well. stay fast af. We have nearly identical stats with it. i have slightly higher kd (very slightly. like 0.2) with my low level rat strats where ive played maybe a good 30% of my games hammered.
Trust me it do rat incredibly well. Dont give up on it just cause one door closed. If you did that well going high which i really dont see working well even before the mig 25. you can do even better doing low level rat flanks. Tho ofc it might just not be your playstyle and thats ok. But trust me, its far from pointless or bad in any way.
Also, it has to be a full uptier for mig-25 soo its not every game nvm somehow thought the mig 25 was 11.3 i really havent played it much xD
draken is my fave. xs is my favourite plane to play in the game. i have nearly 400 games over my next most played plane. I will defend it forever and ever (j35j tho is sadly kinda very useless if you already have the xs and will not perform nearly as well)
