Things are really heating up in War Thunder Air rn with the additions of powerful 4th gen fighters such as the F-15A Eagle, Su-27 Flanker and JAS39 Gripen
I’ve said this on other channels but A single BR cap raise to 12.7 isn’t enough We need a dramatic cap raise to fix the many many MANY issues from 7.0+ in air, and 6.3+ on the ground The F-86F-2, F-86k and the F-100 are at the same BR The F-86F can out turn the F-86k, out rate it, out gun it and, at lower altitudes (where most dog fighting happens at 9.0) even outrun it The F-100 is untouchable by the F-86k, it can get behind the F-86k, shoot its missiles, or shoot it down, and run away just as easily The F-86k is in a strange spot Another example The G.91YS Which Other then a slight, and I mean literally 12KM/h, speed increase It has a significantly worse rate, slight better energy retention, better guns but less ammo, and the same damn missiles as the F-86k, but it’s .7 higher Why? The F-100 is significantly better, same can be said of the F-86F, and the MiG-19S by a long shot Then there is all the strike aircraft with all aspects… We NEED a cap raise up to 14.0 for air 13.7 for ground 8.7 for naval Spread things out
It’s especially inexcusable in my opinion to have Sabres and Mig-17s fighting things with all-aspect 30g pulling missiles, no missiles and no flares VS modern missiles and flares like huh
and they aren't increasing the br cap...
F-22 Raptor at 12.7 when
I am just trying to fly my 23MLA and I am getting skull f**ked left right and center by 4th gen fighters. It’s terrifying.
Now imagine being in the 11.3 Italian Starfighter 😭 Those poor souls
REAL
Yup pretty accurate
I’ve said this on other channels but
A single BR cap raise to 12.7 isn’t enough
We need a dramatic cap raise to fix the many many MANY issues from 7.0+ in air, and 6.3+ on the ground
The F-86F-2, F-86k and the F-100 are at the same BR
The F-86F can out turn the F-86k, out rate it, out gun it and, at lower altitudes (where most dog fighting happens at 9.0) even outrun it
The F-100 is untouchable by the F-86k, it can get behind the F-86k, shoot its missiles, or shoot it down, and run away just as easily
The F-86k is in a strange spot
Another example
The G.91YS
Which
Other then a slight, and I mean literally 12KM/h, speed increase
It has a significantly worse rate, slight better energy retention, better guns but less ammo, and the same damn missiles as the F-86k, but it’s .7 higher
Why?
The F-100 is significantly better, same can be said of the F-86F, and the MiG-19S by a long shot
Then there is all the strike aircraft with all aspects…
We NEED a cap raise up to 14.0 for air
13.7 for ground
8.7 for naval
Spread things out
