Yeah Jaguar GR.1A isnt bad for 10.3 just it only has Two GBU’s
It’ll struggle against the F-5C’s but what else is there really, harrier is okay but the other stuff is crap. I don’t mind the 2 GBU’s my main concern is flares or the lack thereof on the Gr.1 and the harrier I enjoy but LGB’s are noice.
It’s part of my intense desire for the Gnat and Type 545 is to have something I can really use to grind and have fun.
crash so they don’t get the kill

Yeah I always play better after using Britain
Yeah i mean the Jaguar GR.1A gets 60 flares which is more than enough for its BR. and like you said there is literally nothing else because what, are you gonna dumb bomb at 10.3 in a sub sonic airframe?

Quite good for SB, but yeah…
Nah least I can be morally superior whilst I die, I had a J-37 chase me for the entire match last game, I didn’t even bring the gunpod so I could just bomb and leave, ended up getting him stalled out with a 9D though. I hate people like that I always leave planes that I know are rubbish to the end.
No the copeium tells me other wise
I seeee, i seeee a pre-production EFT because the community REALLY wants it and UK is totally hamstrung by Gaijin and not a criminal lack of funding… uhmmmmmm
you mean SAAF gripen
well my palm reading said EFT!
‘E…A…P, the ball says this shall be your saviour’.
Me: F-16AJ
Gaijin: B-but no 4th gen for Japan, plus F-2 is an F-16 derivative
Me: Eurofighter is an EAP derivative, no 4th gen fighter for UK gimme…
I swear to god I hope this insiders development book gives me something to work with.
If we get a Tornado in December I will be so unexplainably dissapointed.
They could’ve given us F-14K in the exact way Japan got the AJ, they chose not to. They also chose that labelled mockups do not count as intent.
I’m sure Italy will be equally as mad when their Eurofighter doesn’t get Brimstone, because AFAIK it only exists for them in mock-up form next to their show Eurofighter.
Can’t really disagree with you there. You know the BS stunt with the QE carriers and CATOBAR was 1 Billion pounds wasted.

F-16AJ has already been slated for removal once the F-2 or other comparable 4th gens are added. Tornado is a 4th gen, unfortunately this is the best the UK has until 4.5s start running around. EAP is an unnecessary test model, yes it mounted show weapons, but it is not a feasible or practical addition.
UK will get what it can, when it should. As always, i advise grinding another (multiple) Tech Tree(s).

Its Third Gen
Yeah, no. If a nation is so badly neglected that the only advice is “dont play it, play something else” then something is deeply wrong. If the US or USSR went a single update without a new addition, there would be a full blown riot. UK goes without anything playable in over a year and its “shut up and go play something else”
Its total BS. We have multiple native additions that would be balanced but Gaijin wont add them in a state that would actually be balanced.

I didn’t see that, I just saw them say it was a necessary addition (it was) to plug a gap in the TT, based on a vehicle Japan evaluated and developed an aircraft from. Still it’s good they’ve slated it for removal, but they also slated the R2Y2’s.
I know, its just a shitty one, good at what it was intended to do (Aerodynamically stable bombing missions), but shit at everything else it was forced into.
Its a test model, but come on, nothing between the Phantom and Eurofighter, I mean really, they bend rules for many other minor (and even major) nations. I definitely believe that the lack of a fighter, is equivalent to the lack of a 4th generation aircraft. Plus it had design consolidations made to carry armament.
I didn’t just grind the UK, I also have Germany and up to the Mirage 3 in France, I just want to be able to grind my nation, without fighting through utter shit. I could accept the lack of top tiers, if they made the rest of the tree good.
Still I am waiting for this book, and maybe something that will help my EAP proposal will arise.
I think it may technically be classed as a 4th gen, but its so bad it might as well be 3rd gen. But then Gaijin would just point to the Harrier.
I think the early one’s might actually fit the definition of 3rd generation more than 4th generation. Maybe they need a 3+ generation. (E.g most are not multirole, carrying short range self-defense ir’s does not make something multirole).
Either that or a differentiation between early 4th gens, mid range and 4.5ths.
Or even better, Gaijin could recognise that having no fighter at top tier, is a genuine issue, and I dunno, plug that gap.
What is deeply wrong is irl UK, Gaijin isnt manipulating reality to bend the whole game for the UK mains benefit.
The game has 10 tech trees for a reason, go enjoy the diversity of equipment. USA/USSR were the majority developers of arms in the 20th century, cope with reality.
