Why I believe the F-117 should be in the 9.0-9.3 range instead of 10.0

An A-4 does not have FLIR.
An A-4 does not have LGBs.
An A-4 isn’t Stealth.

The F-117 is fine where it’s at and sits in a great lineup.

You think the 10.0 lineup is actually good? The bradley is gimped because of the TOW-2B not working like it should, the launcher cannot stay elevated on the move even though it can in real life. The 120S is also gimped because its an M60 hull at 10.0, its engine is bad, its ridiculously tall, it has zero armor. The lav is actually pretty good i’m not going to lie. The M1128 is a brick in terms of maneuverability, it has very little armor, it has barely any ammo compared to actual mbts, the slat armor often does literally nothing. The majority of the playerbase will end up bringing it up to 10.7, where almost every plane can do what it can and more, except for stealth of course.

The A-4 has defensive weapons, the A-4 has fire and forget guided bombs, the A-4 can dogfight, stealth doesn’t matter for the A-4 because you are facing very few missiles vehicles or early radar spaa, the A-4 can carry more than 2 pieces of armament, do you see what i’m getting at?

We are still waiting for the M1128 to get its spall liner and for the Bradly to hopefully get something more substantial than a face shield.

I think people focus to much on it having stealth. Yeah it has stealth but really ass stealth if it isn’t still WIP. That being said it should not go below 10.0 the TGP alone locks it at 10.

The only aa’s that can counter it are mouse guided ones, they don’t come in until 9.7, and they still don’t have enough range to counter the f117 if it just sits at its max range. The first one that could even pretend to counter it is the asrad at 10.3, but even that would struggle. Everything that can actually shoot it down at its max range is 11.7 and 12.0 which it can’t even face at 10.0. In a downtier the only things that will be able to kill it are other planes with guns.
