Fighter aircraft line needs rebalancing.

The fighter aircraft line is way too powerful. Needs half hp and damage. Can only hit one target.
Its "weak" against towers which do only 1/10 of their hp. And if directly attacked. The tower doesn't even get a shot off. Sam missiles only do 50% of their hp. So having two of them kills off one of them and there is 2 or 3 more that generally only take about 10% damage.

I don't know what age you are playing in, but in Atomic Age, the towers are very powerful and with 4 SAMs, fighters have a hard time already. They may be a bit overpowered in Global age and below, but they are fine in Atomic age right now.

I completely agree with this. I'm in Global and think they're perfectly fine as they are. Industrial towers and beyond do lots of damage to Planes, so perhaps it's just a case of refining attack plans rather than nerfing the unit.

Planes melt with Sejong's tower damage research. Can't tell you how many times I've seen a global player's Mk1 and Mk2 fighters melt to enlightenment age towers on my industrial age alt account.

I guess you've never seen an airplane take the dumbest fly path after its target got destroyed before it got to it. If anything, airplanes AI needs fixing.

I'm atomic and players with the tower health research give me the biggest pain as it goes against my inbuilt expectations of how many planes I need to deploy to take one out. Definitely no need needed.

yes towers are strong against air. But the problem is that you can upgrade 4 planes in one upgrade, while you need huge time upgrade towers one by one and those uni tech! Some Atomic bases have EA level towers only because of this!

To be honest, I feel like my fighters mk2 are like paper when they go up against a Global age or Atomic age defence😅

It's for sure this guy either has very weak towers. Or he's just not in the right age because wow add 1,000 hp please! Sams are painful please please ignore this topic.
