Indeed. Its the equivalent of comparing an AIM-9B with a G or J/P.

As it look as though the F-4E is your only Rank VII, I would also recommend trying the F-5E as well as some other nations Rank VII as this will provide a good overview in general.

It really has nothing to do with "American players playing better on average".

The classification of "all aspect" does not mean all all aspects are the same. The R-60M has a 2km all aspect lock. Thats extremely limited still for jet combat. It also does not compare at all to the closest US analogue, the AIM-9L as thats far ahead in terms of performance. So the fact two aircraft have an all aspect missile, without the context of what those missiles are or do, is a rather meaningless comparison.

It was not only "balanced through statistics". There were multiple topics on both the .com and .ru forum, youtube videos and other mediums on other platforms all giving feedback on the MiG-23, all backed up by those statistics too.

R-60Ms have improved the MiG-23s situation, but the comparison of the R-60M with the "all aspect" missile most other nations use is simply not relevant at all. The US still has aircraft performing at the very top end of aviation.

Only the MiG-23 and MiG-27 have R-60M and they received them as the MiG-23 was bottom of the efficiency for all top 11.0 aircraft. Whilst many of the US ones were at the top.

The reward system functions for useful actions in battle operates as follows: every 15 minutes, scoring occurs for useful action for the specific aircraft, as well as after the loss of an aircraft, or by the mission end.

Detailed here:

Germany has both the F-4F and MiG-21MF with AIM-9J and R-60s respectively. (As well as also the F-4F Early if you want to count that).

Italy was given the AIM-9J for its F-104G and 104S based on the fact Turkey and several other nearby European nations did so on their F-104G and S's without modification. Factoring in that without this, Italy would be without any top tier aircraft for some time, it was done for game balance using those grounded factors.

The German F-104G is however not in such a balance situation and not in need of them currently. With Germany already having 2 other (Or 3 for some) top missile jets.

It depends on what's ready to show really. That's the most important factor.

We prefer to enjoy the suffering for a while before denying/confirming anything )))

True if you want to count squadrons. Though they generally come inbetween too. This time it happened to just coincide. But as you said, most of the other majors before also did not start with a ship.

The first Dev blog of direct hit was a tank and the first of Red Skies was a plane.

Do we know why we are still talking about things very much off topic here?

Please take it to a more appropriate topic guys. This isn't a wishlist topic.

Historical issues (in fact all issues) can take time to validate, check source material and implement if they indeed are found to be incorrect. We have over 2000+ vehicles in game now and its no small task.

The time it takes to review and process reports however is no reasoning, justification or any grounds to break legally defined permeameters in any way. We will always entirely reject any such documentation and resolve the matter with any legal requirements.

Soon™

A reminder guys, we have a Wishlist topic here:

To clarify, that was referring specifically to the F-104G last patch. It came to the tree.

Sweden just had the J35A as a Rank VI premium jet. There wont be another this update. That is certain.

Its not for us to clarify what each government / authority allow. Put simply, we will not handle, pass, or allow any form of classified documentation / source and we will follow any legal procedure that follows said documentation. Unless clear authorative approval is posted that the source is not classified, we will treat it like it is and act on it as such with the necessary process as per any legal perimeters or requirements.

Guys, could we please try to keep on track please. This discussion really could be a PM or here:

BR discussions can be here please, this is not the place:

Its not a big deal. I just merged your topic into this one. You are free to still discuss all the same things. As can the rest of the community.

Here is a comprehensive list of the team structure:

A better thing to have done would have been to PM the moderators or one of us CMs first before making the topic. You dont need to know there schedules for that. For clarification, any Moderators are volunteers. Community Managers and Administrators are Gaijin employees. The general easy way to tell is Green background on posts.

Because the feedback was already collected, passed, reviewed and responded to for this BR update:

You tagged one moderator to ask for that permission and most of our moderators are volunteers who give up their free time to help. They are not here 24/7 and even more so on the weekend. A CM would need to authorize it regardless.

Again, if you want to have a discussion of the back and forth kind, that's exactly why this topic was created. So you can discuss current, past and future BR changes as well as the system itself as much as you wish. If you want to leave feedback, we have the official topics for that. We do not need multiple seperate topics just for BR discussions when we already have one that's well established.

This thread serves all the purposes you mention and was created for that very reason. Which is why your topic was merged here.

We have dedicated areas for subjects that have different communities and interest groups. It's logical to hav...
