Why was the F-15E/I nerfed after just one day?

USSR hasn’t gotten anything powerful relative to other vehicles since Mig-23MLD.
Everything has been on-par and lesser since then.

No, they removed the G-limiter because takeoff speeds and turn rate couldn’t be fixed without removing it.
Then they added a new one which may or may not be an interim solution.

Good stuff, thanks for testing it.

Glad to hear that! Yeah considering how most FMs were made in the last day this seems to be a breath of fresh air!

Yeah it’s still very strong, engines are still insane

Forth repeat the process with a snail representative so they can’t say the video was edited.

No. It is about the same weight as the E we have now and it has the EPAWSS and Fly-by-wire system and a lot of missiles and shit. What not to like about it. It would basically be the lore accurate F-15E we have now on steroids. (idk i am just saying as it can do a cobra and shit)

Idk man. The Su-27 was a bit more enjoyable than the F-15A but that is just my opinion other than that i must agree with you

Well if it’s inaccurate then it should be fixed… At least with the f15e nerfs the f15c will still be relevant, yesterday when the E arrived super broken it made the other american jets look obsolete.

There is a difference between low fuel ingame and in real life higher fuel+CFT test,what you see on the graph. The lowest fuel is 9 min in game. In real Life i think they not tested it with only 9 min Fuel the accelerations.

104 to 0, must be the fact that US pilots are superior.

On a serious note, i don’t believe the game was ready for the f15e. They should have added the hornets and waited for a more competitive challengers.

Nice drawing

That is not true there are also nerfs for balancing. Which the f15 needed to be.

F-15E would’ve been nerfed by going to 14.0.
The BR system is for balancing, changes to the vehicle is historical changes.

That would mean they would need other aircraft that have not been added to the game.

Again the 15e/i should never have been added this early without better competition. They should have add the f18 that the majority of the trees could have received.

Obviously, in the eyes of most people, it is natural for the F15E to be weakened, as its performance in the game is both unbalanced and unrealistic. Firstly, the F15E is too early for the War Thunder, which also applies to the Su34 and S1. Balancing a cross generational product in the game is very difficult. Currently, the F15E is unbalanced for both the Air RB and the Su34 for the Ground RB, and neither of these two vehicles should be added to the game in the Firebirds version
Secondly, why only weaken f15e/i instead of su34, and why Brimstone only has sal mode while kh38 can be easily added to the game? Why can S1 appear in the game? Are both Su34 and S1 more balanced than F15e? The answer is that they are all unbalanced, or they should not appear in the game, so why are only Russian vehicles weakened the least? Because gaijin has always created games with dual standards, it is a painful disaster for gamers. The reason why gaijin failed to balance well is not because the performance of the vehicles is poor, but because they do not have standard rules for adjusting the vehicles, which is quite subjective to programmers. They also like to add more vehicles that are difficult to balance, and the final result is like firebirds burning

That’s not how BRs work. BRs don’t require many aircraft.
F-15C/JM, and F-15E/I could all be 14.0 right now.
You’re also forgetting Typhoon, Rafale, J-15, Mig-35, etc.

F-15E is literally nothing new other than thrust.

No, the pantsir came at the right time, it’s just that no other nation got an equivalent it deserved. Even then, from what I’ve been told it isn’t terrible hard to counter.

Can confirm, even without the F-15E, the Pantsir is really easy to deal with if you have more than 1 braincell.

The E/I was game breaking.

If they would have added these there would not had been an issue.
