Why the Su22M4 addition is GREAT + important PSA

cash grab and it makes any other su17/22 more worthless than it already is given it has the same engine has the su17 so good luck getting to a base(even wen no other fast plane is around) all the su22m4 premium bot farms will get there first

Unique premium → paywall
Copy paste premium → cash grab?

It’s not about it Being copy Paste
It’s about it destroying the Very Limited su17 su22 meta by Being a premium of the best Version su17/su22

Which makes it Harder to spade those vehicles wen there are premium planes which are always spaded running around

Like imagine if they added premium il28 wile in itself not a Problem the increased amount of il28
Will make it harder to play il28, b57 and tu14
Becouse you could potentially end up in a entire lobby of those Planes

Better than having paywalled vehicles imo
This seem like minor issue compared to that.
They are basically selling a skin and accelerated progression.
What would be your solution?

Make a premium of the M3 instead
(But ideally a different plane entirely given how close the su22 is to the tornado gameplay wise)
So it’s similar to squadron vehicle in the Russian tree

Which also would give reason to get the tech Tree m4 later instead of just giving the best su22 possible right from the start

Ah i see, yeah that sounds better then.

I completely agree, Su-22 is a kinda broken anyway, you get two KH-29T’s at like 10.3/11.3

11.0 in ground, 11.3 in air. Hardly “broken”.

Yeah, fully self guided rocket bombs are “hardly broken”

I’ve played the Su-22m3, and it’s fun where it’s at, you just have to play it right.

11.0 is full of TV guided weapons. There’s TV guided bombs at 9.3 and TV AGMs at 9.7.

Which is a different plane without Kh-29T’s

Has KH-29L’s though, and it’s still fun…

The strat is just fly low, fly slow (in attack vector ofc), and try to get behind the enemies, as they rarely look behind and above them, normally only front and above them.

So you’ve never played the Su-22M4, but you’re sure its broken because of a different plane with a different weapon type?

Fun yes, but definetly not broken not even with two kh29t that are good at best

The KH-29 platform in general is really good, and a easy killer, the Su-17/22 platform is literally the exact same plane, other than some have more flares.

And 2x Kh-29T’s. Which are allegedly “broken”.

only 2 kh-29 can be carried, limited to around 11km max (13 on statcard)

americans have the maverick.
longer range (upto 15km (23 on statcard)), more in quantity (upto 6)
oh and americans have the tv guided bombs too
and orbital harriers and A-6Es

And you just can’t do the same in these other planes?

i need around 860 sp for 2 of these 11km range, tv guided missiles that suck at locking

i need around 700sp for 6 of the 15km range, tv guided missiles (at lower BRs even)

Nice circular reasoning fallacy.
