British naming schemes go from the most dastardly name like HMS Vengeance or Challenger or Spitfire to the most out of pocket kitchen sink name like Blue Parrot, or Green Cheese.
I love it.

Now that is a surprise. So that turns the Buc S2B from a meh upgrade over the S2 to being a very good strike aircraft for ASB and 9Ls as a default choice.
Thank you
I hope the radar in the F-35 is like Blue Marmoset or something random
Good old rainbow names, was a naming scheme used during the late ww2 and until to 60s to get round the ability to guess the project goal based on the name, something the British did quite a lot during the war.
Wikipedia has a good list of the lot https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Code

They always could, but the game wouldnt let you fire out that far. Good see they might have been buffed
You probably won’t be able to look things at that range
Yeah, that I doubt. Though would be nice to be able to use them more reliably in ASB as a psuedo cruise missile

Should be able to fly much further than that iirc
Warrior’s RARDEN got some changed
Bucc S.2B has its new RWR, needs the threat ID reporting, also has its extra CM’s so 92 available now should be 90 so needs reporting. And Martel can now hit a point target from 30km away.

wait it only carries 2 asraam?
yes
No reloads is kinda unfortunate.
Hopefully the MoD comes up with a non-jerryrigged version. Good for interoperability too.
thats kinda pathetic ngl
Well, 2 ASRAAM block 6 and a IR camera with SWIR tracker

The additional ASRAAMS are on the separate vechicle. And you know, that is not main UK focus. Sky Sabre is
it was made in a couple of months to be deployed quickly
