I don't know if you know this Tim, but unguided rockets can be used as pseudo flares. They wont deflect everything, especially in a tail chase, but my luck usually comes with headons with missiles. My loadout when I fly the F-1 in Air RB my loadout is 4 AIM-9Ps and 38 Mighty Mouse Unguided Rockets. It serves me pretty well with that mix, usually being able to get a few kills when I get max up tiered
(edit: thanks @Evo3s for correcting my grammar mistake, changed sudo to pseduo)
Yes, though I don't usually suggest it because of the performance tradeoff - but it DOES work sometimes.
pseudo*
Just wanted to help you on correcting that :D
Pro skills
I use the GR.1's rockets as flares
@@evo3s75 Thanks mate, I have edited my orginal comment to have that adjusted
The T2 was ruthless when it had the lead indicator
I still remember the T-2K HUD when playing sim battle with that gun sight. damn I miss that day. now it only on arcade battle :(
they should give that back to planes to make it worth actually locking onto someone
@@cursedcliff7562 would be nice but if it ever gets added back it'll be for simulator only
How about a country tier list, so people would know pros, and cons of each country.
As someone who really enjoys flying out the T-2, the F-1 is very punishing. With weak engines and no flares, if you mess up or someone decides they want you dead, you're dead. If you have to go full defensive and start turning.. you will bleed all speed and die very quickly. You have to position yourself and fly very carefully.
the best looking jet fighter
i cant believe i grinded out the entire F4EJ and F4EJKai in this thing, and did not know that it had pulse doppler radar. oh well not like i could get to use it now that i have the kai.
also one thing you should add is the absurd repair cost the thing has. iirc 15k when spaded. its pretty stupid
ALL the high tier repair costs are pretty stupid ..... :-\
I think the PD only got added recently, not when they added it to the game atleast. I think somewhere along the time that they added the Ja37c
@@rickdubbink no wonder i never knew lmao.
Should note that the F-1 didn't help too much with the F-2... the FX program did see initial developments by Japanese companies for indigenous designs, which did incorporate technological developments from the F-1 and other advancements in Japanese industry, however, the cost ballooned for the FX program domestically, and more importantly, Japanese politicians sought to a technology exchange with the US, and so General Dynamics was awarded to design the F-2 derived from the F-16, however, due to prior sales by Toshiba of dual-use technologies to the Soviet Union, the US made it so the F-2's technologies were black boxed, and so little in the way of a technology exchange functionally developed. The F-2's entire development and procurement has been considered an expensive loss for a lot of people in Japan, as it still remained incredibly expensive, while not actually providing the Japanese aviation industry the technology exchange they desired.
Mom can we have a F1?
No. We already have F-1 at home.
F1 at home:
Thanks a lot!! I asked for this review a few days ago, I don't think it was on purpose but I really like it. Thank you very much!
Irl the F-1 had countermeasures and could carry 12, 500lbs bombs with 2 AIM-9Ps or 8 500lbs bombs with countermeasures and 2 AIM-9Ps but gaijin wouldn’t add it mostly bc of the lack of skill (most) top tier players lack due to fire and forget missiles
Don't forget it could carry a loadout of 2 AIM-9L and 2 AIM-9P
6:20 those were some of the cleanest hits I've ever seen
I just wish the F1 would get the radar lead indicator the T2 had back in the day. It would make the plane far more viable. While not useless in anyway, rn it simply is not equal to F104s and Mig 21s with 2-4 missiles and flares.
Good work Tim as always
Time to suffer for top tire Japan
The F1 is good in a downtier but can barely hold it's own at 10.3. With the lack of countermeasures that are necessary for any fighter at that BR, it struggles quite a lot.
It still is missing some loadouts and it's only saving grace are the missiles and nose authority.
No idea why the F-1 is at 10.3.
Cuz of its missiles ,radar n guns . Mirage 3c does not get flares 3 missile n it’s guns are meh and mig21mf/smg (probably the best here) 4 missiles ,flares n shit guns .
104j is pain at 10.7 ... You endup in 11.3 matches all the time. Gotta stay fast but if you endup in someones range you are ded
I think for its era the F-1 is probably one of the most appealing jets, though not appealing enough to convince me to grind the tree for it over getting ready for the Tomcat
This would be an almost perfect plane in-game if it had countermeasures. Aside from that, the only issue I have with it is how it horribly locks up above mach. Nevertheless, I like it more than the T-2 since it actually has usable missiles(9E's are barely any different than 9B's in this game), a full ballistic computer, and more gun ammo. The T-2 was pure pain, but this plane is "okay."
You did it Tim you did my plane!!!
You said you don't consider the AIM-9P to be the best sidewinder in game. I'm curious as to which one do you think is the best?
Something powerful coming to game this update and gaijn don't hide it. If u go to simulator air battle there u can see that max br is 13.0 .4th gen plane ?
Idk if its Gaijins programing,, but if you lock a target, theres a possibility you can launch an aim9P at frontal aspect in 1.25km,,, got quite alotta kills this way xD
This thing could be competitive with flares and a pair of aim7e2
First time played this jet in Ace Combat Zero back in 2011
Hey if you see this Tim, could you do a review on the Spitfire MkXIVc? I was thinking about getting it but most reviews are few years old and not sure if they hold a candle to newer vehicles recently added.
I'm slowly branching into including more lower tier prop stuff - no promises on specific vehicles, but more are coming. I have a few more produced but not published yet.
the plane is capable only the guns are lacking. It feels like zero the way you play it because germany is very fast and hit hard and when the guns give you up you have a bad time
About anti-ship missile. Well, due to the fact that Naval battle's BR is a mess right now (and the fact that it's harder to balance than ground or air due to ship's different characteristics), I don't think we will see the F-1 with ASM any time soon.
I don't either, but I can dare to hope ;-)
Similar situation with the A32A's RB04
Out here waiting for gaijin to drop the F-2 now that everyone else got the F-16
I hope this gets it's anti-ship missiles while we probably won't get to use them against their intended targets much they can still be used against tanks to a degree
they'd have potential use in some sim maps i think
As someone who loves the T2, you wanna skip this one and head straight for the phantoms. You're gonna get dragged up into 11.0 or 11.3 nearly every game anyway with the F1 so might as well use a better plane. No flares at top tier are very punishing
i mean 4 AIM9Ps give u a fighting chance. the only thing about this plane is that you cannot misposition or u just die.
I would love to have it's real bomb Loadout: it should carry 12 500lb instead of 7. We did already Bug reports more than 2 Years ago...
Way too many uptiers, you spend most of your games just surviving. Which means wasted time mostly ever since they removed rewards from dogfighting, getting 0 RP is pretty common. It was a decent plane but the current meta ruined it.
Mitsubishi F-1 is cool and all but where's my Mirage F1 tho?
Im grinding rank 6 jpn air tree in assault mode, i am not flying this or the t2 in realistic ever again. Not worth it.
To me the f1 looks like a baby of a jaguar and a phantom
I always thought these looked modern for their age. How's your injury healing?
Injury?
F-1 was called 支援戦闘機 (Shien-Sentoki, which stands for CAS fighter) because of the political issue. So it is a fighter but it isn't...
i have the F-40 jasdf sabre waiting for me in case i ever want to grind the japanese TT. the EJ kai, T2 and F1 are really tempting but i have other priorities.
do you think i should stop what im doing and grind the japanese air tech tree?
Kindof depends what else you're doing ;-)
F-40 sabre is pure suffering. Getting an average of 1 kill per game is already an amazing result
T-2 is good and fun, basically is a starfighter that's actually good
F-1 would be good if it had flares, RWR and didn't get uptiered so often. IMO it's a slightly worse 21SMT/MF
The E J Kai is an F-4J with worse missiles but a slightly better gun
no, the f40 is naught but suffering.
@@user-tr2li3vu6u and the best radar in game
As someone currently grinding out the T-2 in the JASDF F-86-40, I gotta say it’s a good plane, but at it’s current br, you’re a subsonic jet facing all supersonic jets. It is satisfying to get kills in though, but I usually just target ground targets.
Im'a facing these jets while playing with Yak-23 :$
Over G Fighters players are having a fucking trauma flashback
does this review apply to the t-2 too? I wanna try em out but I dunno if they're worth it
he reviewed teh t2 already i think
I have a review of the T-2 up : ua-cam.com/video/eHMoasYubAU/v-deo.html
@@TimsVariety right, I didn't see one. thanks mate!
I honestly gave up trying to upgrade this plane.
It's really not worth the pain.
Plz do the mig19s as some say it’s terrible and others think it’s ok
Baby phantom
3:43 Then, what is the best sidewinder in game sir?
9G
@@user-tr2li3vu6u How so? It's pull is very shit compared to the 9J. Constantly misses compared to the 9J.
@@DeadSkyWT Um no, they have pretty much the same pull, but Gs have like 5x bigger gimbal. That is WAY more worth it than 2G more pull (18G vs 20G)
@@user-tr2li3vu6u он правду говорит об tracking
You've never played planes with 9gs or 9js then. 🤣
Somewhat ironic when you point out that the hook could never be used. But already miximizing it for sims for quick resets
(To be fair fhe vid was for realistic battles but yeah)
Thanks for info man.
Lack of flares and chaff are pure bullšhit , I have no idea whay Gajzila is doing that for aircrafts that have them or can have them as modul , for fruk sake I have seen a flares on prop aircrafts as a mod , especialy now that every body have stingers in their basement 🤪😁😂🥖
If they remove Japan post war jets only two would stay lol everything else is copy and paste :P
I'll sum it up in fall of 2022 this thing is horrible. No flares mean you are an easy target for even Aim 9E missiles. Your manuverability is one of the worst. Just dont get it. just some examples. A-5C, SU-7 has better performance than you. The F104 is a better plane than this
