F100D seems very underwhelming.

[pompous]

I dont have one but i have flown against them and they dont seem very good.

[Uh... No thanks]

At least wait until people get the hang of them and unlock all modules for them.

Ive spoken to a few people who have spaded them and played against a few people who said they were spaded and they seem really meh.

Also, you dont need to get the hang of them, its simple, you just energy fight its what all sabres have been for and the F100D is no different.

The F100 does leave a lot to be desired. I've got all the performance upgrades unlocked, and the Mig-19 is leagues better. Nine times out of ten, engaging a Mig-19 either leads to me getting shot down, or running away indefinitely while my team gets slaughtered.

The F100 can't turn with the Mig, it can't climb away from the Mig, in some scenarios it can't even effectively run away from the Mig.

The Mig 19, as an aerial superiority fighter, is really just not a fair match for the F100 at all. The F100 is an attacker, meant to perform well in a close air support role. The Mig just does better in every category that matters, when it comes to dogfights.

Of course its terrible, its on the USA team in War Thunder.
Have you actually played the USA air tree? It's miserable from top to bottom.
And very hard to believe that's not intentional. Considering for (what 6 years now?) that's been the case.

I've actually been steamrolling through RU teams in my Sabre F-2 against Mig-19s before the server update when it's become a free for all.

Then again, it was the first day and people dont know how to fly all that well in it

So right now you can fly the worse (USA) jet against the better (Russian) jets and do well because so many noobs just unlocked their very first War Thunder plane, a Russian premium jet. Haha well that makes sense. I suppose this is the only brief period when you might actually do well in a USA jet.
