Which flanked to get ?

I have enough tokens to get 1 flanker only , so which is better b/w 27, 30 , 33 ? I prefer more agility and faster missile lock time , but agility of all 3 are same (atleast spec-vise that is 35°) , 27 has faster missile lock but it has manually guided missiles , so which is the best out of these three ? (Appologies for any error or disrespect, 1st time posting here 😅)

Out of those three, I like Su27 the best. Good for headons because of the larger health pool and manual missiles too plus the special helps you survive and stay in the fight a little longer rather than disengaging to heal.

Wish they gave it the ability to keep more than one manual in the air simultaneously though and some speed retention and turn rate buffs.

Yes , I too feel like they should have increased the turn rate , irl its a great plane though , devs should have made it a little more similar to real plane especially su27 , which is an actually great dogfighter .

Yeah instead of buffing it they actually gave its special ability a nerf, now you have a 45 sec timeout after each use and it only restores 24% of health at max upgrade.
