I mean there’s nothing specified, we could do, I just doubt it, would be nice to have something that meta same applies to the prospect of an Indian Su-30MKI, both would be insane to have and haven’t been formally denied, but I doubt we get them.
I doubt we only get vehicles on the leak list but who knows.
List has no planes for the UK on it so it must be one of those or one in game already
Later variant of a said incoming aircraft[F-15SG, basically a F-15K, so a F-15E with improved avionics, such AESA radar]
131kN of thrust for both engine (262kN total)
VS
The current annonced aircraft [F-15C]
106kN of thrust for both engine (212kN total)
But sure both aircrafts should be added at the same time
sarcasm
From what I can tell it could just be added with an F-15C radar without the ARH and some basic A/G weapons for now.
Go read the post i was answering to, please.
I don’t want to explain why the word sarcasm is for btw.
List of likelihood of new uk aircraft
1 SAAF Gripen
2 Canadian CF18/ Aussie F/A18
3 Sea Harrier FA2
4 Tornado F3 with AMRAAMS
5 Indian Flanker or Fulcrum
6 Indian Mirage
Unless they throw a giant curve ball and we get something like a Fairey swordfish with ASRAAM
Didn’t Smin deny ASRAAM for now
Oh, I posted tree 4th gen fighter aircraft from Indian this thread
I just want the UK to get an actual good fighter
We all pray for this
ya know i would actually play that for kicks and giggles factor
for my two cents, gonna go with Buccaneer S.2 with Foxhunter Radar
I mean lets be fair for the 1-12 hours in which that would exist it would be hilarious
“Oh it’s just a fail squad OH WAIT WHAT IS THAT THING COMING TOWARDS ME AGH”
The thing is it’d be so slow radars would struggle to pick it up in PD mode and it has such a low heat sig virtually nothing would get it on the IR missile front. it is, the perfect weapon.
The thing is the Tornado does everything the F-14 does worse (well. until we start going down the rabbit hole that is AMRAAM anyway). What we really need is something Typhoon-esque, which has manouevrability and good missiles. We currently only have one of those (debatably)
Thinking about it if we weren’t assuming that the SA Grpien was getting an Alt-history load out it wouldn’t even been in the running.
Because of what I could find if it had its historically accurate load it would make it another CAS plane.
I have pointed out that Gaijin has called their stuff historically accurate. (The more bug reports than a Bethesda game on the Challengers say otherwise)
Its also why I think they are so liberal with C&P because it is “historically accurate” that X nation used X vehicle. …What was my point again…
If historical it would have the best targeting pod and the best ir missiles in game so it wont be just another cas plane
Ah. that’s right. I think I mixed it with something else. But I have no clue wait. guess I’ve been looking at too many planes.
In how SA uses it, yes. But the aircraft is more appropriately defined as a multirole, not a dedicated CAS like the Tornado Gr4 would be
i dont want a seperate tornado with amraams, shouldnt the current one be able to use them already?
It can use AIM-120 but what’s the point of losing one of the best 11.3 jets in the game for BR increase and ARH?
