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


The 20m altitude 30% fuel experience at top tier.

If anyone can think of whichever plane is the peak ratefighter at 13.7, let me know.

As far as the topic is concerend, is this truly to be believed as realistic performance for all planes involved?

Fixed it for you.

F-15E wasn’t the first, and it’s not alone at doing that.
In-fact, I doubt they’re the only ones.

No.


This is 6km altitude, almost pointless to compare a 15% TWR advantage plane to one otherwise virtually identical.

Here even, the max speed differences at most flight ranges F-15E even has a higher max speed and a lower overall speed limit per the airframe.

It is actually bizarre to see these two as comparable, they simply aren’t? F-15C is pretty much outright inferior by a significant margin to F-15E in just about any flight regime you care to mention. Not like F-15C was even having a hard time or anything, but clearly a stronger plane couldn’t possible cause issues.

The F-15E and I needed a nerf but i wonder why 2 days after the update?? It’s like they didn’t had god knows how many dev servers to fix it… they waited for people to GE it exactly how they do with the premiums. Make an op premium, put it at the price of a fully modeled DCS aircraft, wait for a couple of months and then “oops. We found a better source that says x plane is overperforming”

3 minutes to 2000kph [would be faster at higher altitudes]:

No loss of speed in turns:

Again, not just F-15E, it never has been.
Just cause you didn’t use these tactics on F-15C/JM doesn’t mean they weren’t available the entire time.

@MrKrabsPattys
Dude, stop with the overt lies.

Zero premiums are OP in War Thunder.
Let alone released as OP.
Event vehicles that were the 1st vehicle of their kind ever added to War Thunder were unintentionally added at lower BRs, every other vehicle wasn’t.

F-4S right after multipath rework(short period before introducing F-14AM) and China M4A4 prem wants to know your location XD

F-4J is the same BR.
And other M4s are the same BR, on top of Pz4 still being 3.7.

Well, Still, 1st PTG version of the M4A4 is the best version of the M4A4/Sherman V, thanks to an additional 50cal. Riiight?

It’s not game-breaking level OP which needs to be nerfed though :)

Dev server live for all lol.

Glad to hear we got a pretty accurate FM, the C is still better when it comes to dogfighting and is till relevant, which is a good thing :)

Let’s stay on topic, everyone. Please don’t discuss BR changes or other vehicles, especially MBTs or other nations, in this thread. I kindly ask, once again, our friend from the Asia region to stop with the unnecessary insults toward American players in this discussion. Thank you in advance.

If I could, I would have already stopped him from commenting due to his unwarranted insults toward American players and his offensive language. Unfortunately, even reporting him doesn’t seem to have any effect on this “friend.”

Alvis, look at the MIG-23. It is still good but it was better. You could chose between MTI and SRC now you can’t.

Cry post is crazy ngl.

Sadly I think you were the one who started the derailment into MBT. Pal.

Even though F-15E recently got a historical adjustment on the engine, I still think that the F-15E might be single-handling everything below just like the F-15C did.

Oh, I never knew that we all became Asians because of attacking American supremacy. :/

At least it seems you are chilled down a bit more than two days ago.
Now it’s time to stop crying and bear with the F-15E engine nerf, mate.


No matter whether nerfing the damn engine or not
F-15E will remain one of the best fighter jets in this game until Gaijin adds something better.

I did use them. It got boring winning with basically no contest. Now F-15E is better at it in every way by such a significant margin that it is power-leapfrogging.

Whatever hope a non F-15C player had to contest it is so much higher than the hope of contesting F-15E.

I don’t understand your resistance to accepting this incontrivertible fact that F-15E powercreeps upon the previous best airplanes by a big margin. F-15E does everything better than earlier F-15’s.

The extent of the superiority of F-15E over F-15C unlocks whole new levels of aggression and dominance over all the other planes. F-15C was already difficult to contest, but now it got an upgraded superior version which was not what the game wanted or needed.

Well, Gaijin thinks both F-15C and F-15E are balanced because everyone will play it, and every damn match is going to be mixed matching which both team has F-15 on both sides.

Gaijin has not changed a damn single step since the ‘Introduction of F-14A’ on the danger zone update.

“You will get mixed matching so stop whining for being a pawn of US Mains”
Pax Americana as always and historical. :/

The difference there is that they actually could fight back, they just didn’t know how.

But I genuinely tire of people not realizing the insanity that is an unlimited military budget.

They call me brainwashed while forgetting they buy US tech. It’s hilarious.

Guess Wagner is stone age. Thanks for admitting that because it bolsters my point how far ahead the US is. They intentionally attempted to attack a US held position without any Anti-Air weaponry.

The F-22 didn’t bomb Rebels. It bombed the “Most Powerful Mercenary Group in the World” at the time.

Stop buying ours if yours is that great. Remind me again, was it a “Game Changer” they called it? I seem to remember Poland’s Shopping List as well and we all know they’re the current Military Powerhouse over there.

Nope. Obnoxious rebels versus The Most Powerful Mercenary Company supplied by Moscow, thought to be the 2nd most powerful country after the US.

Sure is a nice comparison, isn’t it.

Mig-23ML was never OP, it was added years after F-4J.

Exactly my point.
F-15C/JM/E/I powercreeps everything, not sure why you claim that’s wrong then agree with me that they powercreep.

Stop buying US tech then if it doesn’t work better than most of what Europe makes.
