As of right now only China, Italy, Britain, and the USA have 13.0 ARH carriers, only Germany and Russia have 13.3 ARH missile carriers. Everyone else is forced to play top BR if they want ARH gameplay. IMO, (along with significant decompression) we should have more sub top tier ARH missile carriers.
Here are a few options for an almost all TTs.
USA
I kind of struggled with this one, the best conclusion I arrived at is the Singaporean F-5S, 2x AIM-120s and 2x AIM-9P-4/5s
Russia
This one is pretty well known, the MiG-23-98. I don’t think a full real Su-39 would be a very good idea.
One could also make a case for the MiG-21-93
Germany
Unfortunately there are no good options for Germany, including Switzerland as a potential sub.
Britain
There was a distinct lack of British aircraft development until the EFT was ready, so the only real option is a Hawk 200.
If we want a competitive (ish) plane it would have to be a full real MiG-21 Bison.
Japan
For an indigenous option, the F-4EJ Kai ADTW with XAAM-4s and AAM-3s, really sticking it to the ICE lmao
For other options, we can look no further than the Thai Fighter of Doom ;)
Italy
European nations are really pulling short on domestic options today man, so we got the Brazilian F-5EM
France
I personally love this one the most the most, the Moroccan F1 MF2000, this picture shows the MICA IR but it can carry the EM as well.
Sweden
I almost said no options for Sweden, than I remembered the JAS37D carried AMRAAMs, brain fart lol
Israel
An option could be the MiG-21-2000, an upgrade program provided by the Israelis. Only catch is we would have to reverse gaijin it and convince them it could carry the Derby.
Oh you wanted a domestic option? How about another F-5 lmao. Here the Chilean F-5E Tiger III
It can carry the derby too, it’s just a little shy right now…
Obviously some missiles must be omitted ATM for balance reason such as the Python 5 and IRIS-T
And that’s it for my ideas, feel free to post any if you have them, especially for nations I couldn’t find planes for.
Also keep it civil I would like to keep this topic open.
