I see an issue with having the J35 rated for 10.7 with only 12 total cm's. Yes the plane is well armed but I don't feel it can hold its own at all if any form of up-tier is present. Would love to hear from Gaijin on this if possible.

Any form of solution on this would benefit everyone in Air RB and Air Sim battles. If it was either give a buff in terms of CM count, or even dropped to 10.3 to ease up on the need for many CM's. Either would make more people play the Sweden line and create more diverse lobbies.

Early MiG-23s (M and MF) at 11.0 suffer in a similar way with only also having 12 CMs to pop, and those frequently face the top tier trifecta constantly (F-14; F-16, and MiG-29.)

Not sure about moving either lower than 10.7. In a down tier all 3 have the potential to absolutely own hard, and they do fairly well too on downtiers. They sorta have the same issue the Maus did on ground, which is you can't move it down, else they become too strong, but moving them up has them struggling to get much.

The real solution is to extend the BR ribbon more and put the top of top tier up there.

Definitely agree with extending the ribbon. Im sure this will happen with mentions of more advanced aircraft. F15, Grippen, Rafale, etc.
