So like, if I play rank 6 how much more will it give me compared to rank 4 for example? I’ve looked at the multipliers and it said 0.9 for rank 4 and 1.1 for rank 6 so doesn’t seem that consequent
I’ll ignore the gamemode modifiers, but assuming a kill is 650 score, the rank 4 0.9 multiplier will get you 590 points, but the rank 6 1.1 multiplier will give you 710, a total difference of 120. It’ll add up after a while, and can save you a few matches per day assuming you are equally good at rank 4 and 6.

Fair point I guess
0.1 works out to 10% so the 0.2 difference is 20% more task progress for the same score.
combine that with the +33% for RB over AB and a 2000 score game gives 3000 points progress

Looking so good now that it’s in-game.

Just had a battle yesterday where nearly our entire team was MiG-25, and enemy team got absolutely crushed.
MiG-25 is actually alot better than I expected.
It’s good if the enemy team does exactly what you shouldn’t.
The amount of A-10s that climb to try and fire on me just to eat an R-40 is hilarious.
They’d be immune if they stayed low, and notched, and could easily out turn me

I would of loved it if it could carry 4 r40td.
That missile with the energy assist of your speed has insane range.
Been getting a lot of kills from just firing them off at lone targets from 8km+ away
Yeah. Stuff with proper radars and SARH will beat it.
Plus it relies a lot on not being noticed since its radar isnt very good and the IR options dont get IRCM.
Of course also works the other way round when it comes to “do what you shouldn’t”: I killed two Foxbats this weekend that though it’d be smart to engage my Warthog on “my turf”, and saw more go down to A-10’s (Sim EC).
I think especially in sim it is quite difficult for the MiG-25’s to make out and engage low flying Warthogs, whereas for them it’s easy to defend against the Foxbats at low altitude, if they spot them in time.
Of course getting into any fight that involves altitude is never a smart choice with a Hog… = /

You can apply that to any vehicle though. Every single vehicle in Warthunder can only be good if your enemy makes mistakes. Everyone is human, and MiG-25 in particular is really good at punishing small mistakes.
The MiG-21’s thought process was prolly a lil something like:
“Oh, a low alt MiG-25 taking me in a headon? That’s the easiest kill of my life!”
The MiG-25 is honestly the br it should be.
Radar is a bit jank at times, and it’s very hard to see out of the cockpit in sim. But it’s a decent plane
I don’t disagree. Its BR is fine. I’m just saying it’s a very good plane, and punishes small mistakes far more harshly than most others.
Air RB it needs to go to 11.7.
All planes suffer because of 1 vic. Flareless or not soon as u engage anyone its orbit missile time.
Not enough CMs to randomly pop…even if you have them at all.
Fly high get zapped by its j- band missile. In a BR where many are RWR blind. Most toxic jet, so far anyway
The thing is it’d probably get dunked on in uptiers, the problem here is the horrible compression that starts at 8.0 and never ends afterwards.
We have an urgent need for decompression which we’ve had since longer than I’ve played the game
It’s worse than the Mig-23ML/A/D and it’s BR should reflect that. 11.3 at most, but I don’t think it’s too powerful at 11.0 to warrant a BR increase.

Why would you need to pop them randomly?
I havent checked all the aircraft around it but i have only seen a couple that cant detect J-band.
Yeah, if the radar was better, i could see it going up. Or if it could carry 4 r40td.
I’m not sure I would put it in the very good or even good category, more like the “balanced” one
At 10.0 there’s quite a lot of aircraft with no rwr and few or no countermeasures. And after the burner is off the missile doesn’t have a market so you can die randomly if you didn’t spot the missile during the few seconds of burn
Then move all jets with SARH to a min of 11.3 since the other jets cant compete with them.
11.0 Phantoms fox 1s are meme missiles. Migs 23rs cant be up to much as never been killed by one.
Its like players saying jak viggen is OP- seen like 10 in 14k games. Meenwhile can see 10 mig25s a game
Mig 25 has a double wammy of good sahr and way too lomg range IR dunks. Cant catch it… Nothing compares. Basically 27ETs and 27ERs at 11.0.
