Скачать или смотреть War Thunder - D4Y3 Ko Stock to Spaded

The title isn't a lie - I took this aircraft from stock to spaded in one match. The D4Y3 is really just context for a discussion about balance.

The discussion is two part. I dropped two bombs, downed two fighters, and hit a couple of AI ground targets... and net better rewards at BR 3.0 than some higher BR aircraft with "stronger" (i.e. more player victories) performances.

The second part - this aircraft has a worse bomb load than some (most?) fighters at this BR. It honestly feels a little silly to call this a bomber, and give it a bomber spawn... because it's actually an interceptor. Much like the B7A2, it's a menace early to mid match because it can abuse its excellent maneuverability and bomber air spawn.

I'm not sure exactly how to handle (change?) this dynamic... but I think these aircraft have outsized match impact because of their early game position/advantage.
