It looks fun definetely will consider it, any suggestions for Air? Ideally jets doesn’t have to be top tier though
What’s your playstyle on jets? This might help on giving an answer. And which countries would you like to grind the most?
If you’re considering the VIdAr you should try the SAAB-105OE, has great cannons but I don’t think the flight performance will be comparable to a F-80 or any other proper fighter you’ll face.
F-86F-35 for USA is a great fighter but it’s only available during events, has great flight performance and decent ground weapons you can use as close air support.
The T29 for me has some super trolly armor in the mantlet. Most people will shoot the turret and you can bounce some things and even survive HEAT-FS. It works the best with an aced crew and it’s one of my highest KDR vehicles.
Really anything, I enjoy the f-5c but I’d like to learn missiles too, definetely want to grind something that will be relevant in the foreseeable future. Like the typhoons and rafale are good currently but who knows when the next jets arrive. Already have a US jet so probably something diferent though.
How’s the J-7D?
Now that I think about it, aren’t the sales over?
Considering you want to work with missiles, there’s different missiles that you may have not seen as much, these are the SARH and ARH. Do have any preference on any of them?
The ingame sale is over, the Gaijin Store sale started today.
Nope, pack sales just started, it’s a 2 part sale. Not that progressed so I haven’t played missiles yet much besides the god awful ones on the f5c. ARH seems better from what I can tell but I really don’t mind either.
really sucks the J7D isn’t on sale
Alright, yes, I was looking at some packs. Thanks.
Well, you’ll have to wait on the ARH ones because the JA37DI F21 isn’t on sales. ARH are better but that means you get to a tier where everyone has them (let the SPAMRAAM begin) I think it’s better to start from a point where there are not so many of them. Considering the aircraft that are on sale, I’ve heard that the MiG-23ML is good though it can get you uptiered to 12.7, it’s okay. There’s a bunch of Phantoms too, for example the Japanese one at 11.0 or the british at 12.0. Forget the German Tornado unless you want to grind the country as it can only hold 2 missiles (if you want to bomb bases you can do it but that’s it, they are All-aspect IR missiles though).
The Kfir isn’t good either as it has only two missiles and they are worse than the ones on the F-5C. The Saab J35XS only holds IR missiles too though it has six AIM-9Ps (rear-aspect).
So, depending on the country you want to grind and what you want to try, you can have the ones I’ve mentioned. Remember to test them before purchasing them, though, it’s always a good idea to see how it performs. Also, when you get in a match, try having all the controls binded and all of that.
Is russian air worth grinding? also what about chinese air? I was also thinking about the mig23ml but would rather get the j7d (although it isn’t on sale sadly)
Porsche Tiger Command Variant, T29, T14, TAM 2IP, and 2S38 if you wanted to be hated by everyone. A2D is also great for CAS and will also make you hated by everyone. Ju-288 also good for CAS (2x 2500kgs) tho its a big bomber
Chinese air is quite good imo, and has one of the largest possibilities for future additions due to their military scaling up over the decades
Would really love having it if they end up adding the J20
I’ll def check all of these out, thanks a lot
Mostly looking for more air suggestions, think I got all the ground candidates summed up
Sort of, depending which line you’re going to, e.g., Su-30SM is a Jack-of-all-trades, but the research time you’ll need to have is pretty big to be fair.
MiG-23ML missiles are very nice but the radar doesn’t help. I recommend you going with the SAHR missile with napalm bombs, in this case is up to you if you pick air targets first then bomb the bases or virse and versa.
If you plan to ever get into Air Sim, then the Tornado WTD61 is rather solid at 11.3. Hard aircraft to do well with in ARB, but managable. (Id definetly buy it if I had much interest in grinding the German TT). Also to me looks like a really fun mud mover for GRB that would pair fairly well with the Leoaprd you already have
Mig-23ML is always an OP choice
J35XS is rather under BRed and looks interseting. Tricky at times, but looks like fun gameplay otherwise.
