Why is people okay with moving the f-5e to 11.0 but not the j35xs?

“Some of the best”, meaning up there with guns like the vulcan.

Meaning you were up against players who missed almost all of their shots.

I’m confused, are you coping about the J35 premium of the F-5E?
(It’s cope regardless tho, keep up the streak ))))))

no, the m39s do literally a whole bunch of nothing. As far as receiving and giving experience of mine goes.

git gud before daring to say “cope” to someone better than you then talk about coping



the f-5c counts about 90 team kills, the f-5e was two weeks at 11.0 til today and has only 14 team kill deaths.

look player card
see awful stats
question what’s in the mind of bad players to even criticize
feel better about myself and leave

Yea, and? your point being?
I only played them when they were at 11.0 and not even touched the 5c even tho I have it.
Yea they may be slightly inferior ( cuz i also played cas in them) but that still points out how much of a coper you are.

you even played them in ground rb where it’s dummy easy to score kills

that still points out how much of a coper you are.

sure thing, keep mirroring.

I may be ass stat wise (I don’t care for stats) but I can still tell when someone has a take worse than one from the 6th.

you are really comparing me to the ceres guy?

how is my take “worse” when i do have the experience everyone in this thread lacks to even talk about it EVEN despite i posted proofing? are these people still turn fighting zeroes?

i want what ur on since you said the M39s are worse than the literal squirt gun called the GsH-23-2

Your takes in general arent as bad as it may seem, you do have some good ideas but the way you bring them forward is generally not tought out too well and superbly rash and borderline 2014 edgy.
sorry but that’s just it

i agree mantis is a scheisser and the j35 is a paper plane

look how i one tap this j35xs from 2km away, m39>r27er

I think saying that everyone in this thread “lacks experience” is a rather large exaggeration.

This is just an assumption but I’m guessing at least everyone here, including you and me have fought/played either F-5E or J35XS (or both).

Everyone here, including me are replying from our in game experience when it comes to fighting/playing both.

And personally I will still stick with my opinion that F-5E is a much more competent plane than 35XS at 10.7 and even 11.0.

12 flares is a struggle at 10.7, let alone 11.0. That doesn’t make 35XS bad my any means but god do I want to forget spading the 23M.

Also, proof that something is “better” general performance wise (not including player performance) is kinda meaningless imo, you have things like F-16A that out preform MiG-29SMT 9.19R FM wise, doesn’t mean it should be the same br or higher

But that’s just my take on this whole slop thread.

you keep saying that 12 flares is a struggle. Your speed on the deck alone is enough to outpace most IR missiles and effectively go cold against most sarh missiles. You have to play the j35’s like a 104 that can also pick isolated targets and absolutely rinse them, but most people will just decide to engage with the first target they see and get slow in the middle of the furball instead of abusing the fact that their aircraft can literally catch up an f-16. That’s not the draken being bad, that’s 90 percent of the playerbase being clueless tunnelvisioners that will get so damn slow they will eat an aim9e head on. The MiG23M is objectively trash, and has even barely an edge in a dogfight against the f-4e unless it’s a sustained ratefight where the phantom refuses to extend (because boy it shines at extending, thing the j35xs is better at)

even if the f5e is a great dogfighter against anything 10.3 and below that decides to engage, i still prefer the f8e because it can get kills more consistently without engaging and is almost as good BUT: has more acceleration and therefore has the privileges to extend. It’s high AOA with energy retention is also quite bullshid, you either have one or another, or enough engine power to have both.

Here’s a pleasant yet subtly pointed response that highlights the differences and addresses the skill issue:

Here is a simple format layout so you can understand yaayy


Differences between the F-5E and J35XS:

  1. Maneuverability:
  • F-5E: Exceptional at sustained dogfighting with high maneuverability and excellent energy retention.
  • J35XS: Best used for high-speed interceptions and quick strikes, struggles in extended dogfights.
  1. Missile Capabilities:
  • F-5E: Equipped with advanced missiles, giving it a superior edge in air-to-air combat.
  • J35XS: While fast, its missile technology isn’t on par with the F-5E’s.
  1. Versatility:
  • F-5E: Highly versatile, capable of effectively engaging in both dogfights and interception roles.
  • J35XS: More specialized for high-speed interception rather than versatile combat roles.
  1. Technology and Avionics:
  • F-5E: Modern avionics and radar systems provide superior situational awareness.
  • J35XS: Older tech, relying more on speed and pilot skill than advanced avionics.
  1. Battle Rating Justification:
  • F-5E at 11.0: Its combination of advanced missiles, maneuverability, and versatility justify its higher battle rating.
  • J35XS at 10.7: Balanced for its role as a high-speed interceptor, less capable in sustained dogfights and advanced missile engagements.

Why it’s fair:

  • The F-5E excels in multiple combat scenarios, making it deserving of a higher battle rating. It’s not just about speed but overall combat effectiveness.
  • The J35XS shines in specific roles but doesn’t match the F-5E’s versatility and advanced capabilities. It’s balanced for its strengths, not a one-size-fits-all fighter.

So, while it might be tempting to think the J35XS is overpowered, its placement at 10.7 is quite fair. The F-5E earns its spot at 11.0 by being a more complete and versatile fighter, whereas the J35XS is specialized for high-speed interceptions.

I’ve found that the J35XS requires a bit more finesse and strategy to maximize its potential. It’s not necessarily about the aircraft being overpowered or underpowered but about mastering its unique playstyle. I’ve had my fair share of losses too, and I’ve realized that sometimes it comes down to how I’m using the aircraft rather than the aircraft itself.

At the end of the day, it’s all about playing to the strengths of each aircraft and refining our skills. So, maybe it’s not just the plane but a bit of a “whoopsie” in how we’re flying it. I’m no professional either, but I’ve learned to admit when I’m at fault and work on improving my game instead of making salty complaints. Whoooops, looks like I definitely have had those moments too!

Now with that said im goin to talk to my grandpop who flew the thing heheheee~

Doesent the J35XS carry the Rb 24J a standard IR missiles.

I thaught the F-5E carried the Aim-9J with a smokeless motor that had all-aspect?

Dont it?

Edit; nvm the Rb24J is just the Export variant that Sweden has

RB24J is an Aim-9J/P
