F-89B Is Too OP, Needs BR Increase

[Omega Sirius]

Make it 8.0, who else agrees?

It has afterburner, over 1000 kmph max speed, it's 7.3, high acceleration, etc.
It is in no way comparable to a Horton or a Mig-9

You clearly don't know anything about this plane why post your nonsense.......

You obviously never played against it.

no, you just either got your weakness in whatever craft you had exploited. no doubt it is a SOLID plane when used RIGHT but like i mentioned before it definetely has its weakness

ill give you some tips just from my experience of flying the plane: fight it under 3000m, never engage in a head on, if you have decent roll USE IT because the f89 has atrocious roll, if you have under 28 turn time definely engage in a turn battle becuase i will admit the f89 has decent energy retention in a turn fight as long as its dealing with a plane that cant turn faster than 28 seconds, only climb if you really havve the energy and never keep trying to outclimb it because it will catch up, i recommend a climb blast then flat turn to engage. also if you can dive and maintain speeds greater than 920ish on dry maps and higher than like 850 on cold maps then dive cuz the f89 can dive past those speeds without ripping or even turning slightly without breaking

these are things i have noticed that th eplane struggles with

What are you supposed to do in an F-80C then in case it's a mixed battle? The F-80C has an awful high-speed roll rate and overall maneuverability, can't maintain a speed of over 905 kmph and can only turn well at about 500 - 600 kmph. But if you drop your speed and outturn the F-89B, then he's just going to run away and you won't be able to keep up.
And the F-80C is at 7.7. It's supposed to be better

It honestly needs 8.0 it can easily fight me-163 with no issues

>a vehicle is actually an effective counter to my wunderwaffe rocketplane needs nerf gaijoob
the F2H2 can outturn and outspeed it, the F89 can only outspeed it, its pretty balanced tbh seeing as thats its only counter.

Lmao it's got the climb rate of a 9.3 Saber without the afterburner active

daily reminder that A statcards lie and B lmao no, the Sabre outclimbs it easily thanks to this fun thing called zoom climbing. and its acceleration even with afterburners is god awful

Cl 13 has a 49 m climb rate so does the f89

Statcards Lie, constantly, otherwise the P47N would have about half its useful climbrate, and the late model Bf109s would climb almost as fast as a stock F2H2

I've tested the f89 and it really climbs about 49 meters a second

Out of curiosity, can I get a show of hands as to who has it and who doesn't?

I dont but a friend does, we spent a little over an hour in a Custom battle testing it vs a couple of other jets around 7.7-8.0, its not 8.0 material for sure.

[Ddinosaur]

Its annoying but, still only the Horten is a decent counter.

but still 262s still face sabres and migs along the with the 163.
