Yes, its Strong - F-16C Viper Review (War Thunder - Sons of Attila)

[@spray916]

The F-16C has been a lot of fun. It is absolutely disgusting CAS. That said the LITENING II pod while decent isn't the best by far. The DOMOCLES pod on the 2000-5 has very detailed Gen 3 thermals and good zoom. The 2000-5 is amazing CAS but that said the F-16C airframe, with the AGM-65Ds, and a targeting pod is by far the best CAS in WT. Bar none.

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Yeah, the Domocles is pretty darn good. Very crisp.

[@christopherchartier3017]

Plus the Paveway III’s apparently have INS guidance if you break laser lock with the target, that true?

[@spray916]

@@christopherchartier3017 From my experience yes but it only seems to work for the last 12 seconds of flight.

[@Takemura76]

Don’t forget the aim9M which don’t have a diamond for ground RB so they’re totally invisible.

[@hiphip4808]

I honestly just want the games to be smaller, I feel like they’re too big. Maybe on the larger maps you break up the airfields? Have limited people who can spawn per airfield?

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Lots of people have said that. However, with so many players on a smaller map with more lethal aircraft, things could get too spicy fast.

[@jonathanoriley8260]

Ffs, wanting smaller maps is only going to make the problems _worse._ The issue is that the maps at top tier need to be _bigger,_ not smaller with these advanced modern aircraft. Other than that, the core issue is that the standard gamemode is outdated and lackluster. The EC maps at top tier work because the large map areas mixed with objectives spread out, but those maps with the EC mode still rarely show up.

[@thebean8255]

@@jonathanoriley8260I see an unbelievable amount of hate for the EC maps and it just boggles my mind. It legitimately fixes 11.0 and above

[@jonathanoriley8260]

@@thebean8255 Because most players are brain dead and try playing the game as if it's Ace Combat

[@cornealius8152]

just make the games have less players then you jackoffs. it’s that simple

[@ccm_priv]

This update made me happy and wanting to play the game for the first time in years! Really nice!

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Phantom-ob9tr]

So do I have do also grind the F-16A or can I still get it with the ADF

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Now that they are in a folder you should be able to get it with the ADF.

[@dontworry2379]

I would’ve rather had the F15 but the new 16 is ok ig

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Now that they have jumped to the Block 50 F-16 I don't even know which F-15 we will be getting first. It has kind of made the F-15A moot.

[@House_of_Schmidt]

Its too bad Air RB is such a bad gamemode at top tier. Id love to actually enjoy this plane.

[@miguelnarciso496]

If you really want to enjoy this plane you have 2 options. You either wait for gaijin to shrink players per match in air rb (impossible option), or you go play Simulator or ground battles as a Cas, which is very fun, both in fact. That's how I get my fun with the 16c

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

Sim mode is an option if you find Air RB to crowded. I'm trying it out myself.

[@House_of_Schmidt]

@AlphaHeavyGamer yeah its just the cockpit only view isn't as fun for me but sim ec isn't bad. Just not the same.

[@ogtripple2103]

Please push sim the game works better brings skill back

[@AlphaHeavyGamer]

I need to get back into it first. Its been awhile:)
