same weponary
Its alot heavier so it cancels it out and even gives it worse twr compared to the 3c
I dont need it its jsut extra weight
In theory yes but on practice bc its 10.7 instead of 10.3 its just horrible
Turn fighters are good when they have good energy retention.
Energy fighters are good when they lack energy retention but have good energy production.
I know, it’s weird terms for what these vehicles do.
It doesn’t though, the Mirage acceleration is very weak

Feels like 9.7-10.7 a lot of people climb and both the german/french mirage can usually get kills with the radar missiles but anything past that people have learned not to cause of phantoms.
There shouldn’t be even more planes with flares and missiles at 10.3 that are almost invincible in a downtier they just need to move up the planes clearly better than it. J7d with 4pl5s…
About as fun as Mirage III versus F3H? Hell, even the strongest 9.3s like the MiG-19 and Ariete don’t stand a chance. “Nice flight performance, here, dodge this 35G missile”.
At least against the subsonic all aspect slingers, you can just stay away from them. It’s part of why I don’t mind the lack of flares at this BR so much anymore. A-10s, Su-25s and the occasional Jaguar are so much slower than the Mirages (And can’t/shouldn’t climb) that they really shouldn’t ever be in a position where they can fire at you.
But, regardless, the solution to compression is to find the problematic vehicles at a BR range and move them up. If they get terrorized at their new BR, find the vehicles that are terrorizing them and move them up too. Rinse and repeat, and that’s decompression.

Mirage 3c to 10.3, mig 21 mf/smt up to 10.7, maybe even 11.0. mig 21 bis to 11.3. The sps k and the russian premium 9.7 one to 10.0 or 10.3 (having flares with on a mig 21 frame shouldnt be seeing sabres and mig 15s… j7 to 11.0 obviously. Quite a few jets that need to be moved up, would also allow jets like the mig 19, f100 and f104 to be moved up to 9.7 or 10.0.

I’d want to see some movement in the 11.3-12.3 bracket first. MiG-21 versus F-18 doesn’t sound like all that much fun to me. The Bis is a solid aircraft, but it’s really built for a meta that no longer exists. The lack of SARH capabilities, combined with the proliferation of high performance IR missiles at that BR range means that good old fashioned brawling playstyle just isn’t that workable anymore. It’s too easy to be mobbed or third partied before you can wrap up fights.
Mig-21Bis to 11.3 requires all Phantoms moving up by a minimum of 0.3 as well.
F-104 is hot trash compared to the F-100D tho.
No objections to your ideas, just sharing what else would need to occur.
Agree the cracked radar missile planes around 12.0 should get further away from non irccm heat seeking only planes. Problem is most are premiums making tons of money for the devs so it might not happen.

As you said compression, the strongest 8.3s can’t do much to the 9.3s, and the 9.3s get violated by 10.0/10.3…
Me in my lazur have no right to see 10.0. it never struggled at 11.3 and it wont now.

Oh wow, instead of being the worst missile, it’s the second worst missile… while being guided by the worst radar.
11.0 is the most balanced place for it, and I have never seen the MiG 21bis below 10.3, my lobbies in it are always 10.7-11.7, very rarely do I get a 10.3-11.3 match up against premium A-10s (which belong at 11.3, not 10.3).
Yea no…
Clearly you never had the displeasure of using that radar.
I dont think the mig21 is half as good as the j7e

Others would have to move up as well to make it balanced, I’m just trying to focus on the few being discussed here.
HA HA HA, no. everyone who knew what they were doing in it at 11.3 knew it being moved down to 11.0 was a bade idea, it sill is. Thins a beast at the br and SHITS on 10.0 lobbies when it gets them. the fact i can go hand to hand with pretty much anything bellow 12.0 shows it wouldnt even effect it going to 11.3. Its a MASSIVE skill issue if you think its balanced facing 10.0 lol.
Mig 21 bis gets r60m as well as a MUCH better engine. The bloody thing will rip its wings off in level flight if you go above 105% throttle.
