yeah thats great,
would you also see teams of F15s shooting one another down? or F16s?
mig19s?
Maybe just need smaller lobbies
This one was always destined to be either event or premium. It doesn’t have a place in the US research tree when there are already numerous US Service aircraft that can fill the spaces.

I think it’s a good example of what an event vehicle should be

Already training for the event. 💪
It’s my first Air event that I’ll really give a try and I’m choosing some planes to help me grind out,
This one is the Premium P-51C-11-NT from the Northern King Battlepass.
higher the rank of the vehicle = the faster you will accumulate points due to the multiplier, so its best to use the highest rank vehicle you have
I would use Su-22M3 but tried out in a match: destroyed 1 entire base and assisted/stealed (honestly) a base destroy and got ~680 points,
I also have the Sea Harrier FRS.1 but also not that reliable in the Air BR it sits, 11.3 is not good for both vehicle,
I mean, I could use the Su-22M3 if I get the P-51C-11-NT crew locked just for Boom and Zoom a base and get the same ~680 points and then return to the P-51C-11-NT.
low rank vehicles unfortunately suffer a penalty to the speed they gain points, but if you cannot get points consistently at all in a higher tier vehicle then it is better to use the lower one if you’re gaining a lot of points per match with it
I got ~2500 points in the match I screenshooted, maybe was luck, maybe not, but If I repeat that in few matches I’ll be able to grind the vehicle with no issues.
But yes, I know that penalty and I’ll eventually use the Su-22M3 to gain some extra points. When the event starts I’ll compare how much points I’ll get with Su-22M3 and P-51C-11-NT and determinate which I’ll focus using during the event.
i’m typically able to get the star in 2-3 hours of gameplay, it’s not that bad
The Fakour seems to have a much faster acceleration than the phoenix though, if MiG_23M’s stats for the rocket motor are correct.
Faster acceleration yes, but I can’t see it having any better maneuverability. And it will still have a long ass ovbious missile plume.
Oh sure, but my biggest grip with the phoenix is how fucking slow off the rail it is.

Ehhh, remember when German mains raised hell over not getting the SU-9/11 because its engines where based off reverse engineered Jumos?
There’s always somebody gunna be upset that they don’t get the new shiny thing. And while the USA is probably the best place to put it currently, Russia would still make more sense than the T-90 and MiG-21 in the UK tree IMO.
Honestly these nations need their own TTs even if it means grouping a few of them together Eg: Iran & Syria etc. Although this could be like what they did with the Merkavas, add them as USA event vehicles, then re-add as TT and premiums for their actual Nation later.

Sub tree are sub trees, they are pretty much a completely different scenario, and since Iran doesn’t have a dedicated home this is the best place for the Iranian F-14
They still haven’t added an actual Merkava Mk.3D, Merkava Mk.1, or Merkava Mk.2B to the Israeli tech tree, I have a feeling any Iranian TT they (hopefully) add will be missing a F-14 variant that’s represented in the new event vehicle… hopefully not and hopefully they add the Merkava to their rightful home…
do you have any high tier jets? cause its extremely easy to get points up there with all those multipliers
No, but as mentioned I may use Su-22M3 as alternative if I get crew locked or if the base bombing points is enough.
I got relatives from Iran and love Iranian innovation and engineering so I’d naturally be bias for the addition of the Iranian F-14A but I honestly believe it’s wonderful. We’ve had a continues flow of attackers so this is a breath of fresh air and with new missiles coming into the game I can’t argue.
I’ve been waiting for Persian vehicles for a WHILE, I’ll 100% be playing this vehicle!

Then youre set. Sticking to one playstyle for these kind of events is pretty tiring, so its good you can bomb and fight
Actually it was the chinese
Right then! Persian Cats up the Chinese tree! lol
