Us Air Tree Vs Soviet

[Spaceman_5]

Which Tech Tree Should I Choose I Have The Same Progress In both About 2 Planes away from tier 5 in both and don't know which one to do taking in to consideration the new update with fox 3s so idk

There's really no wrong answer here.

Soviet aircraft typically excel at close range knife fights while US aircraft typically favor the medium to long range engagement zones. That's very generalized, but that's mostly what you're going to experience until you get into Tier VII/VIII with either nation.

As a US air main, I am biased towards the US tech tree. Their radars are better overall and they have better RWR sensors to detect danger sticks flying at them. Soviet aircraft struggle with decent Avionics equipment, but they still do well in a knife fight in a lot of cases.

US is the best nation in the game for planes, specially modern jets, even more in the upcoming update with 8 FOX-3 per F-15

I'd also add that most of the actual US arsenal isn't in the game or isn't available to aircraft in the same way it is to Soviet aircraft. Additionally, ALL air battles take place at close range in this game, so don't come on expecting anything remotely realistic about your experience.

And If ever we needed to shift focus from Russian Bias :-)
