Takes only a few CC to say its OP to get inexperienced players to flock to it and drop its stats
A5C being bumped up by 0.7br less appealing than one thats dropped by 0.3. One rank above aswell.
Same thing as Ayit id say best aircraft in the Israeli tt and alot of people know it. But ill still see base bombing Ayits in a match. They would also have enough matches for it to be spaded aswell.
That logic doesnt work when the Ariete being a premium is at the same BR as the Sagittario 2 while being significantly better.
Another examples of this logic being wrong(although not being batlantly as p2w as the Ariete) are G55S having slightly better engine cooling and maneuvrability than G55 serie 1, Bf109G-2(not longer obtainable in germany but can be obtained in italy) being same BR as G-2/trop despite the slight edge in performance advantage of normal G-2 due to removal of the tropical air filter, G91R/4 being same BR as R/1 despite the versatily of being able to bring some 9Bs if one desires it, F-4S is the better version of the F-4J, P-51D-10 having practically the same flight performance(minus rudder performance above 550kmh)as the D-30, but 0.7 BR lower, Pokrishking P-39 being a P-39 with weight reduction(and normal P-39 is already a very undertiered plane), A-1H as a vastly improved loadout over normal AD-4 and Su-11 being a Su-9 with considerably extra engine thrust for a small 0.3 BR increase.
Of course there are cases of the premium being worse than the tech, with most obvious being F-4J(UK) and AMX-11A, but this more the exception than the rule, normally a bad premium is just a reskin of a “bad/underperforming/overtiered” tech tree vehicle, with P-51D-20NA being a reskin of P-51D-10, the worse P-51 ingame, its the perfect example of this case, but other cases like T-2 and T-2 Early, Tornado IDS and Tornado WTD61 exists.
There is also the premium vehicles that are actually unique, some of them are bad(recently removed FPA-16) while some of them are good and can make a huge impact in the match(Wyvern being perfect example)
Dont feed him, he does nothing but troll
I don’t have the J7D because I already had China air complete when it came out. I am however, currently grinding out the new Taiwanese subtree in the T-2 for Japan and at br 9.7 equipped with all of ZERO countermeasures I have been seeing a considerable amount of J7D’s which is criminal.
How it’s below 12.0 is truly a mystery to me.
Are you saying that it should be 12.0?
it’s in no way a 12.0 plane
Do you mean Thailand?
Because its a premium, case closed and before you start comparing it with the 21bis at 11.0, it wouldn’t be 11.0 if it was tech-tree exclusive, but a premium version exists and they cant be that shameless so they had to lower all versions to 11.0.
Are you on some funny meds son?
Maybe it wouldn’t be TOO oppressive at 11.7, but 12.0 would be better.
The J-7E is a better plane but it’s only 11.3.
The J-7D is an 11.0 plane, and that won’t change until decompression is done.
It is NOT an 11.0 plane. Putting it at same BR as F-5E, and just 0.3 above A-10A is insane.
The J-7D is worse than the MiG-21bis, which should be 11.3.
How is it better than the J-7E? The E has better energy retention and flight performance, and the same missile loadout (minus the PL-7s).
Mig-21bis and J-7E are already criminally undertiered. They should be moving up aswell.
Then the Mig-21Bison should move up as well, because it at minimum 1.0BRs better than the 21bis.
What makes them so undertiered?
It’s not like they can go higher than 11.7, because that’s where the Mig-23s are.
Mig-21s in general tend to be undertiered for some reason.
When compared to their contemporaries, not really.
They only have issues because of BR compression (like everything else), and theres the 21bis being a bit too low in BR.
Comparing them to things like F-5E, they have both better flight performance and better missiles.
This is an abysmal take, even by your standards
