I meam you are free to keep this attitude. Wont bring back the rocket bug exploit nor change the BR of J35XS 💀
the J35XS is pretty much unplayable dogshit, it will most likely move down in the next set of changes
Again I never knew this community has problems with reading, but Im not judging.
I never said that, please find post where I say it… I actually say they leave plane as it is but in lower rank, thats all, but again please just play the game or the plan and then give us your opinion. thank you
Best of luck then towards that goal. Tho i do think if it could carry R-13M1s instead of Js it would be fine where it is right now.
I would not because it lacks RWS…My opinion 10.3-10.7 max and leave the plane as it is. So easy it can be done today.
the J-7E already has missiles better than those at a lower BR with a much better FM and RWR and more CMs
J-7E should be higher in BR in the first place.
It literally looks like gaijin is going to launch a new premium top tier in sweden that’s why it’s destroying the J35xs. He is unplayable falling against F14A with fox 3 and others. The J35xs has only 6 very weak 20G missiles that are easily dispelled with 1 flare, it does not have RWR, its energy retention is low with 2 turns it is practically stalling, it only has 12 countermeasures, disclaimer the F5C does not even have countermeasures in real life and gaijin stated, the j35xs has very little fuel for the missiles it has, as high speed is needed for the missile to be minimally usable, what saved the J35xs is that at least in the worst of the worst it could still destroy 1 base with rockets and you can’t even do that anymore. It seems that gaijin is simply going to launch a new premium to make more money and leave the J35xs forgotten. It was supposed to be at maximum 10.7, it’s wrong for a vehicle to be OP just because it’s premium, but that’s beyond reasonable, it’s simply in terrible condition. The premium vehicle serves the community to support gaijin’s work and gaijin should provide a vehicle that is minimally constant and capable of farming a tech tree.

Did you use your IRST today?
WOW. The next match I turn on my IRST against an F14A

IRST only serves to lock the missile at a more favorable angle, it does not increase the G it supports nor leaves it with IRCCM. When an F14A launches a phenix at 40km I will blink my irst 3 times and imagine it being an RWR.
Try blinking it 4 times next time? /s

Just saying AIM-9Js aren’t weak, the tomcats engines are like 2 mini suns and your IRST can really help against flares
Same thing happened with the J35A also. The XS replaced it and it sold much better. Then gaijin made the A32A prem relaized it was shit and finally lowered the BR of both the prem and TT. Sweden for the most part is made up of a ton of mid vehicles. The XS never should’ve been a premium and its biggest selling point was locking players out of rank 8 when they added the JA37D
I agree it needs to go down in BR. The question is, is 10.7 too low for it.
It is supersonic, it does have 6x half-decent IR missiles, it does have good handling and whilst extremely few in number, it does even have CMs. Many 9.7s are currently rejoicing the fact they no longer have to deal with aircraft like the F-5C and Im just a tad concerned the Draken could steam-roll in a full downtier if it was at 10.7.
To that end. Id say, 11.0 (RB) and 10.7 (SB), see how it goes. If its still really really struggling, then try it at 10.7 (RB).
But just going to have to wait for the next BR change, which I had hoped would be before the next major. But Im thinking that it will now be afterwards.

Idk, with its current FM i wouldn’t touch it personally. Any joy i had for the drakens was sucked out after the FM change. Don’t get me wrong its okay but i have no interest in a delta that isn’t exceptionally good in anything but being a missile bus, so wvery swedish jet aside from the viggen.
The issue the J35XS faces though is a lack of CMs (only 12), No RWR (so forget pheonixes, they have no warning that any SARH is coming at them from a far) and they are slower than quite a few 12.0s. Meaning you arent even getting reliable shot oppotunities.
I’ve been seeing a fair few in my Tornado F3 in Sim recently and they stand no chance. I can attack them with absolute impunity, every single time. Im not entirely sure how I’d feel about fighting them in my Sea Harrier FRS1e but I think in sim at least, 10.7 would be more than reasonable (at least to test)

Its a shame about that FM change. But if its accurate, then its accurate. I was contemplating getting it on a sale at some point. but im not sure I will now
Idk, i cant even recreate irl events with it like the 18g pull that an austrian pilot did which caused his eyes to bleed. Or the -12G a J35F accidentally pulled. I know rider used the F’s manual but it still seems off. Even matching my fuel and armament to their weight i dont have matching stats to the current D model. It doesn’t matter since my report was denied in favor of the F’s model.
It’s an all around hard to balance plane, it (obviously) shouldn’t be at 11.3, but 10.7 as of right now would make it crazy. Overall decompression is needed but it shouldn’t really be facing better SARH carriers like the F-4S or F3.
