Britain Air Forces

I could kinda see why people are jealous of tiger 2s or panthers. decent APHE is such a blessing

Yeah… That BR really really sucked. I think the worse thing that ever happened to me was going round the corner in one of the BR6/7 tanks (I dont recall which one) and just fidning myself face to face with 3 Tiger 2s. I got the first shot off at least. Non-pen. Of course

If HESH actually works it would’ve been a unique feature of the UK tree too, but it doesn’t…

You have no idea… Yeah. our sweet, beloved HESH. Most reckon thats the reason why no Scorpion CRV or Abbot SPH. Because they use HESH and Gaijin doesnt want to fix it.

exactly, they either have to buff solid shots or fix HESH. but it seems that Gaijin doesn’t want to

Yep, thats the worse thing about this entire top tier situation for Britain. Most are fully willing to accept, Britain has messy additions for the next few months at top tier until we get Typhoon. (doesnt mean we should get nothing, we have options, but i’ll fully admit, now, none of those are overly good) But instead they could admit to that, say “hey Britain isnt going to be getting much for the next few months in top tier, so instead, take these” and give us some really really solid lower tier additions. Everything from Hawk or Gnat, to the TSR2 or Vulcan. or even stuff much lower. and we’d be happy (no excuse for the chronic dry spell of additions we’ve had over the past few years) Even just Fixing old stuff, like HESH, SRAAM or Red Tops would go a very long way.

Id be more than willing to accept Britains top tier fate, if it wasn’t for the universal neglect. So many great additions just never added (I’d love the Jaguar Gr3A because it has HMD and I’ve never used a jet with HMD, sounds interesting, especially in SB) and the stuff we do have, just isnt finished, a lot of things feel like they started them, and then just moved onto other things half way through.

currently I’m grinding USSR, France, UK, and Germany. none of them seems to be doing to great except USSR (maybe germany but the CN playerbase literally calls it little sweden)

Yeah, I think im going to have to start playing another nation, France is looking maybe the best, but I just dont want to even think about that for now. Gunna put WT on the shelf till December and see if Gaijin actually lives up to their promise or not. Even though they’ve said we are getting a top tier aircraft in december, I dont believe it until its actually, officially, added to the game, Britain has been screwed too many times recently for me to trust it entirely on faith.

Oh yeah speaking of the december patch they promised a new leo2 after denying our request to fix the PSO, I wonder what they’ll implement

2A6EX, 2A7 (because it would only be better thermals in-game).

I usually turn the thermals off in my leo because of how bad gen1s are so at this point it’s really not a big deal anymore, but still I think they should at least give us something on par with the US (M1a2 sep uses gen 2)

I think 2A7 uses gen 2/3’s on both commander and gunner.

I do the same, either commander thermals or no thermals at all.

I am interested in eventually getting the Black night or 2E for those, now the foldering has happened, that might be possible within the next few months with effort. Having better thermals and Commander thermals does sound interesting to have

I’ve just uninstalled tbh, I’ll see what they have in December for Britain. ATM my time is better spent studying anyway.

Yeah. I re-installed for the sub event. But not gunna touch the game much if at all for the next month or 2. Darktide is really good with the recent updates if you like 40k but yeah, studying does sound the better choice… Glad those days are behind me

It’s AIDS, I have no interest in what i’m learning, but its just another stepping stone to get where I want to be.

I will re-install at Christmas if we get something worthwhile, if not then i’ll wait till Germany next gets something and wait until Eurofighter.

Ah, yeah, between Covid lockdowns and general end of course burnout, I spent my final year of uni like that.

A small part of me is hoping the whole, No Typhoon soon thing, was just to squash expectations, especially as that was said before attilla update, so thats 2 Major updates before december. So a tiny chance of Typhoon this December. But highly unlikely.

But my main hope is we’ll see the precursors to the Typhoon, the aircraft needed for other nations before we get Typhoon, like F-15. With that, Typhoon could come sooner rather than later.

Apparently theres a F18 leak

I’ve seen it, looks like a D, so not a CF-18 model, but still its a new jet and the F-18 is my favourite aircraft after the Typhoon.

F-18D? isnt that AESA?
