Getting air kills in ground RB isn’t much of an accomplishment and doesn’t tell you anything about how well a plane does when the opponent is actually aware of you.
I could get the same results with an IL-10, if they start flying in front of my guns.
If the plane was so good how is it 4.0 in air RB?
It’s getting its ass kicked by practically any 4.0 fighter.
Is good killing planes, is good killing tanks, is good doing everything and only at 5.0…
Is propganda with wings and need a huge nerf.
Simple is Russian.

Define good at killing planes?
Is an IL-2 good at killing planes because it easily destroys them when it shoots at them?
The Yak-9K doesn’t have the performance to be able to engage enemies at will, unless they are unaware.
It’s good at killing bombers and attackers or fighters loaded with bombs.
Other than that you’re just killing bad players and every plane can do that.
Well then take it out and dominate the sky.
Be my guest.
If it’s so good you should be able to get the most kills every game.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Is good killing everything because is a fantasy propaganda russian plane.

Your comment is fantasy and doesn’t add anything to the discussion other than:
It’s OP because I say it is 😭😭

Crazy because my M-51 just got front penned by a 9K due to its angle of attack flattening out my UFP. got one shot.

One nerf I can suggest is leading shot indicator from air arcade battles but translucent because of outrageous moves to confuse low tier spaa and improve radar for high tiers…
It’s not a point that the M-51 is supposed to be heavily armoured, but it’s a medium tank nonetheless and was front penned(front, not roof) by a Yak-9K and then one shot. Front penning you can maybe chalk up to glitchy spots or luck, but one-shotting? Nah. Plus I don’t exactly have a choice on whether or not a 9K will engage me.
It just shouldn’t have APHE belts, it was a fun experiment but it’s lasted too long. Planes like the P108A having it are acceptable, on account of the fact you’re lucky to get even a single shot off before dying.

The reason high tier cas is difficult now is thanks to mobile AA base, and radar that shows lead indicator, so implementing it in low tier helps a lot. For balancing, enable it in sight mode only.
No I don’t support that, keep it at least realistic as possible.
I know you are mad because of those types of “special ed” folks, but shutting down people’s opinion like that will make the cas battle worse…
Biggest war to settle is the stupid NATO fanboys vs Soviet fanboys war first. Its a big distraction and FOTM is a fish bait made to attract NATO fanboys to cry 24/7 because they can’t beat a ww2 soviet tank that also have trash gun…
Its just people don’t know what their nation vehicle is best at and gets mad at folks who knows how to play certain nations…

“take fighters without anti tank armanment and do the same”
no shit, take 9K to ARB and get the same as they do there xD
i do. 1 500 and two 30mils are great armanment. Brings some fun and easy kills.
Also, wdym it does not get air spawn at GRB?
it should not as 5.7 has this guy

which never was nor is a problem. Being superior to 9K in any means, yet somehow 9K became a problem and this plane dont.
yeah, using boxes of 1000 pounders is harder than cannon. For sure…
If anything, my best choise of aircraft always was a Thunderbolt
as it offers three bombs + great anti-air armanment capable of doing dirty ANY plane at ANY rating rather 9K being a good fighter ONLY when enemies cant run from him. Plus being effective armanment against open-tops and cardboard boxes.
American ones are even better as carry rockets to disable any SPAA from distance.
So i dont get any of that
In air RB it gets a strike aircraft spawn.
There is no such thing in ground RB.
With gun pods you have the flight performance of an IL-10 but with very limited ammunition.

It’s a actually 6.0 in GRB.
but in GRB all planes start mid air tho. And strike jets spawn a bit higher as i remember
yes, with gun pods it flies kinda like cow
but thats better than having no attacker at all
ah im sorry, i didnt change the bracket on wiki to ground
The simple fact that you think a much worse Wiesel that nobody plays because it’s horrible and lacks the singular upside of the Wiesel, being small. Because it’s not an actual combat vehicle but a recon with limited self defense capabilities should be uptiered is just very telling.

The Wiesel: locked turret.
The other thing: higher mobility, more crew, and a 360° turret
If I suggest we should have a arcade style lead indicator on planes near 500m of an SPAA, CAS players would probably try to personally attack me in 4.3 seconds
