For anyone who sees this, Its actually more efficient in the grind to get 3 kills in an F5C over 3 kills in an F14 or F4J, whatever you’re using to grind. It halfs what you’d normally make, so say a 20k rp game will be like 7-10k, however that is still more than what you’d get in any normal tech tree rank 7 aircraft

2:25 I'll have to disagree, before I was watching this video I was grinding for the f16 in my f14, any aircraft that went high I always targeted them over lower altitude aircraft because of how much easier they are to shoot down with phoenixes. They can't maneuver as well at a high altitude and can't dive down fast enough before my aim-54 hits them. Around 50% of the time I scored a hit, much more than low altitude aircraft

One aspect you didn't cover is the fact that the F-16A is fucking AMAZING at avoiding SAMs. You will outturn, outmaneuver, and even outrun most SAM systems when given a head start. In my experience, jetting across the enemy spawn, where all the AAs are, at tree top level, and then climbing at a 45 degree angle, you'll be 4km out before they even are able to lock on to you and even further before they fire. You can go up to 1500km/h on the deck, which pisses SAMs off quite a bit cause their missiles just straight up miss due to how fast you're going. You'll only ever die to SAMs when you're dog fighting above the battlefield and can't pay attention to ground fire, otherwise I've only ever died to autocannons.

Aside from the Rank differential SCREWING your RP into the dirt, the AV-8A has been the best thing to grind out the F-16 for me so far. Either a Base, or, 2 to 3 AI Ground Targets and 1-3 Air to Air kills nets me more RP and Lions than my F-14, F-5C and F-4E ever have.

They are identical aircraft in flight performance. Both use the F-100-PW-220 engine and have identical control surfaces and wings. Visually the ADF has the IFF antennas on the front and a small change to the tail structure but they are the same otherwise. They both use the AN/APG-66 radar. The differences are only in the loadouts. They both can use the AIM-9L on stations 1,2,3,7,8,9 and a centerline drop tank. But the ADF can mount AIM-7M on stations 3 and 7 and has no air to ground weapons. The F-16A (Block 10) does not get AIM-7M but has a full suite of air to ground weapons (Mk 82, GBU-8, MK-84, BLU-27/B, FFAR Mighty Mouse, and AGM-65B).

So I’ve already spaded the ADF and am working my way through the mods on the standard A variant. Overall, they’re almost identical with a noticeable edge to the A variant in the amount of Gs I am able to hit in high speed maneuvers. I think I prefer the ADF in air RB due to the sparrows and their added utility, to the point that I’m willing to give up the (very) slight edge for them.

All these new jets are cool and all, but could you also do a review on the F-EJ Kai later? With Japan being the sole nation to not receive any new planes this update, I wanna hear your opinion on its new status as a rank 8 and going up against numerous gen 4 fighters. I’ve played it for the past few days and the new 9Ls on it slap, but with more people getting complete load outs on the gen 4 fighters, I don’t know how my experience as a Japan main will progress.

You just need to press the space button. There will be a small square and you need to put the enemy tank that you want to lock in it. When it’s lock, you press space again and it will launch the missile. It’s a lot easier when you are close to the enemy, but the camera is better when you want to shoot long range mavericks.

Hey bro you being a youtuber can you express more the need for larger maps for top tier jets? I think you could help explaining why. Im willing to go into discord call and chat about it iv got some good points. There is a thread on forums for the rework of current maps into larger ec size for top tier jets. The biggest issue in top tier currently is that the games only last 2 minutes and are just mosh pits, from the start you are at a defensive from enemy radar tracking and just doesnt allow you to even setup before the game is already over. Maybe you can voice for everyone here guide them to forums and make it known we need this. This should only be for top tier in my opinion. People in 11.7 really love the ec maps, there has been alot of positive feedback in game chats and everyone i know. The poll has quit a big vote as well. I have never felt this so hard of a need since 11.3 but now the hardest ever felt with the 11.7. The bigger maps really do allow peoplw to use tye planes to their potential. We have radar so we can find enemy fast, we have the armament to engage at far, the power to get around very fast. Ec maps in top tier jets is like a buffed up much more entertaining prop game mach. The thread is called Poll for re work of current maps into EC maps for jets. Thanks man!

My main issue with it, is that it turns like shit. Everything in the game will runs circles around the F-16 in a dogfight, and that is so horribly incorrect. The only chance you have, and it's a small chance - is to dump the throttle, open the air brakes, and get yourself so slow you MIGHT turn with the enemy. Idk what you mean by the F-16 is more manueverable. I'm pulling 8g's when the enemy is pulling 12 at the same speed. That's a 50% tighter turn than the F-16, and it shows. I'm about half way thru a turn by the time enemy planes already swung around and have their nose on me.

turn at slower speeds, as turning at any fast speed means you hit the g limit in very shallow turns. Inversely if you turn at slow speeds you can make really quick turns with the same g limit

It has very good performance, but the weapons loadout isn't that great for 9.7 as it carries only R3Rs and R3Ss. If you do want to get it, I recommend just using all R3Rs and getting them off the rails asap, (of course only if they have a chance of hitting) then just clean up any others with the GSH23, which is a pain to aim but you will get used to it. Overall, the MiG-21S is not a bad plane, but it is also not meta, so I only recommend you get it if you love the MiG-21 in real life and just want to have one in-game.

@@NovaNeedsTherapy I agree, the full fidelity modules are full of content, A2A, A2G, SEAD, etc. And the planes aren't even that hard to learn, it usually takes like a week to learn all the systems in your plane and you get really authentic flight models. The F-5 and the MiG-21 are super simple modules, and playing them on the cold war server has been so much fun, not even close to what WT top tier is. Buy the modules on discount though, plus you get 50% off your first purchase.

Sadly the video is allready outdated heavily. AFter the change that maps are massive the 19 km radar and the lack of mid range BVR weapons make this one of the worst planes out there and should be either getting better missiles or should be put at a lower BR. Every Phantom outperforms it in any Air to air role besides very close combat. (Something you dont want to be in after the 16vs 16 update)

You need to redo this video for the live server version of the f-16. it can't maneuver above mach1, and below mach1 it will barely turn if using the afterburner. It is quite possibly the worst top tier plane aside from having good missiles. f-14 and MLD will regularly get inside of the f-16 turn circle and gun it down. The only time it get's this "incredible" performance you speak of is either sheer speed in a straight line, or if turning below 250knots, which we all know will get you killed just for being so slow.

Remember how American mains threw a fit China might have gotten a slightly better F16 than them, so America wouldn’t have been the most dominate Air Force in air RB for the third patch in a row? Glad they’re happy at least, although I’m sure they’ll complain it’s not strong enough.
