The thing is su27 doesn’t know it’s a kfir c10 due to its rwr, while the kfir c10 will know something with a mig 29 radar is looking at it
Right, exactly. Why moving the best SARH truck in the game, that can also hold its own in a dogfight, down to a bracket that is already compressed as hell. Just leave it at 13.3, add a 13.3 bracket and then move high performing Fox-1 slingers back up to 13.3.
I just about consider Tornado F3 Late vs Su-27 a fair fight, but Sea Harrier FA2, AV-8B+, Viggen D, etc etc, no, completely DOA
well, just keep in mind that it can be kfir.
and in game theres no LPI, so it’s even easier for flanker.
Su-27 pilots dont have eyes?
Just look as you pass.
roughly 1530 top speed, rips at 1540 (can go slightly higher, but takes forever to accel)
rips at 1460 (sc taken right b4 it ripped)
I don’t get why people are asking for a more compressed and less enjoyable 13.0 experience rather than asking for a 13.3 bracket that will make 13.0 and 13.3 more enjoyable to play. The flankers will be incredibly good at 13.0, and it will make stuff like the Mig-29G useless like it is in RB because much better aircraft will exist at the same BR.
R-27ETs are quite powerful, and the Flankers can carry two of them, and several more incredible SARH missiles, and 4 good IRCCM missiles.
Right, Su-27 is still faster, even if marginally, meanaing if the Kfir decided to turn around a chase, it would never catch up.
This is exactly the tactic I use in the F3 vs M2Ks and F-16s. They couldnt catch up (at least ebfore the F3 nerfs)
Let’s not forget the MiG-29 radar is absolutely abysmal
because currently redfor gets crushed by bluefor (only comparing bluefor and redfor planes, not planes that can be on either side)

I mean if the kfir goes even like 1km above the su27 it will very easily catch it, due to its much better high speed acceleration, although its ir missiles are quite garbage (no irccm)
Then add a 13.3 bracket where redfor can be better.
The F-4F ICE, JF-17, 29SMT, and the flankers will probably all be better than the 13.3 blufor planes.
Yeah… As it stands, I already cant be bothered to try and touch 13.0 because the FA2 is just outclassed by everything else, especially the ICE that just dominates, move the SU-27 down too and it would render the bracket 100% redfor only
It’s obvious that Gaijin is not creating a 13.3 bracket.
A 13.3 bracket would be mostly unfavorable to blue teams.
Moving Su-27 and Tornado F3 into 13.0 would follow consistent logic where strong SARH planes can stand chance against mediocre ARH planes.

I agree.
Bluefor has too many good bombers which cannot be countered by redfor, and that’s not even counting the fact everyone plays on the US team, outnumbering redfor 2-1 or 3-1 each game.
Sounds like even more reason for them to add it, As they favour Redfor at most BRs in SB.
Just look at Mig-23MLDs and F4F ICEs BRs
Once again, more compression is not the answer.
To be honest, with the addition of the german fa18 that’s been happening much less than it used to, although it still happens

create F-16D block 40 without HMD and call it a day…
maybe F-14D with AMRAAM too
How is it compression when those planes shouldn’t be 13.3 to begin with?
f-16d with hmd already exists at 13.3 with derbies in rb… they might move it down for sim too
