The ice and tornado are at 13.3 and mostly get uptierd.
Sea Harrier FA2, (A Sea harrier FRS1 [11.0] with 4x AMRAAM and 2x BOL) is 13.0. Viggen D would likely sit at least at the same BR, if not 13.3 which is where the F3 Late sits (considering the F3 without AMRAAM sits at the same BR as the Viggen D now, its reasoable to assume the same upgrades would result in the same BR increase)
So 13.3 would be my guess. It would face 13.7s all day long
Remember that many toptier planes go up in brs in the next update
Give it the AMRAAMS. Move it up to 13.0 and see if you want them still LOL
Do they?
Did I miss a devblog?
More likely we are getting other 13.7s like the F-18 with stuff like the Typhoon hopefully coming in Decemeber.
At 13.3 it would still face all of them
First off, i have no interest in grinding a new plane for one missiles, weve done that twice now on sweden, we dont need it again as gaijin would use that as well sweden got a new vehicle so they dont need more aircraft. Instead of making the viggen an even worse aircraft by sending it to 13.3 (why 13.3) because at 13.0 the J8F sits with only 2 ARH and IR missilesm it wouldnt be fair for this with 4 ARH and 2 AIM 9L to be the same BR. Rather id personally like to see gaijin actually do their research into swedish jets and un gimp them as they are now.
The moving the D or the C disturbs one of the only decent sections of sweden air as they are fairly competitive where they are at. Arguably between the two best fighters at their tier being the JA37D and the Mirage F1C. Moving the D up to a BR where it cant even outurn a draken is laughable, the compressed BRs would make it a KWS clone which is not something anyone wants to play. If gaijin are going to add a new ARH for sweden id rather them just add the Di as its much to late for gaijin to actually bother fixing the loadouts on our current fighters. Most likely and worst outcome is that the Di will be a prem vehicle as it has been a while since sweden received a premiums air and i fully expect gen 3 ARH slingers to become a new premium wave of aircraft for nations for gaijin to try and sell.

I really hope for the Finnish fa-18c to be added then, I would love it and if the things ive heard about brs getting bigger would create a good spot for the amraam viggen at 13.0 when other planes go to 14.0
If the Viggen D is 13.0. Then the F3 Late and F4F ICE should be 13.0 and the Sea Harrier FA2 should be 12.7
Who knows if they plan to set gen 3 fox 3 slingers to same br
Problem with the F18 is what model. Its unfair to add the MLU model to other nations while the US only gets the base C model. Additionally as the F18C MLU 2 has CAS, new engines and radar it stands to answer itself that if added, gaijin will potentially gimp it like they did with the Gripen C’s by powercreeping and adding the C’s at the same time as ealier models.
Yeah, viggen at 13.0 wpuld make no sense compared to its contemporaries.
Do you think that putting kws, harriers, potentially amraam viggen and f14s in the same br would be a good idea?
Thats not how it works, then you have everything below that would suffer, additionally F14’s arent AIM 120 strong, as much as i despise their overused presence they dont have any right to be the same Tier as ARH slingers with upwards of 2 AIM 120 maybe but 4 no. Additionally where would the J8F go? No HMD no overabundance of CM and meh flight performance. .3 below the KWS which is a better missile barge? Then how do you balance the KWS having IRCCM missiles? The viggen gets the same number of ARH but doesnt have missiles on par with the KWS. Additionally these vehicles become food for 4th gen ARH slingers which would likely sit .3 above the top end of the 3rd gen slingers.
Ur right I didnt think this far, but I still want viggen with amraams :<
And i want finland to have its unique tanks and vehicles in the TT and not locked as prem/event or gatekept on germany but this isnt a fairy tale. All you can do is hope gaijin doesnt screw it up.

It should honestly get AMRAAM’s and stay where it is, the JA viggens are garbage since they got their flight model decimated.
BMP-2MD baby

12.0 with AMRAAM?
Then I hope the Tornado F3 Late moves down to 12.0 then
and maybe Sea Harrier FA2 to 11.3
Would be a battle pass premium or just never added.
12.3 min, sorry, the tornado at least has VGW to help it’s turn rate.
