Yeah, we got the Challenger 3, :D a high speed tank compared to what we are use to at top tier :P
maybe they want add commonwealth variant
makes my heart sad
I bought up the Scorpion and Ajax. The argument? HESH and too new.
If HESH wasn’t artificially nerfed it wouldn’t be a problem.
And right it’s not like we got something for 2019. oh, what we did.
Someone else thought I was complaining because they didn’t get Canada. I mean both the ANZACs or Canada would have better choices.
Their response neither of those groups has anything domestic. My dear you just showed you have no idea what you are talking about.
When I pointed out they had stuff it became the “Top tier” and “MBTs are everything” arguments.
I have more I wanted to say but I just realized I started to vent. I didn’t mean to do that to you Morvran. Sorry.

I’ve made it so clear how I hate these arguments. Like sometimes a nation’s strong point is WW2 or not MBTs.
Like I’ve said before I’m not too well versed in the ANZAC stuff I know Australia was able to make their own Sabers but I have no idea about their domestic production after that.
Obviously, I know more about Canada. For modern ground, we have our domestic APC(yes the LAV program is an APC) and on the air side of things post-WW2 everything up to the Voodoo and Hornet was built by Canada. (well expert for Navel jets to use on our Aircraft carriers(yes Canada had some))
Related argument C&P.
This one I find the worst of all. Like I bet we could find enough evidence to give the US a Churchill.
Like if it could fight the enemy of course the military is going to use it.
I have a few more things I’d like to have vented about but I’m already pushing the limits.

The question is if it gets implemented properly or ends up like the Aim-9B FGW2 i.e a carbon copy of the 9L
Hello smart British people. I am curious about if the RAF Phantoms were ever (accidentally or purposefully) fitted with more advanced versions of Skyflash.
Will be a copy of aim 9m just with smoke

I hope so, the FGW.2 should have been a copy of 9E but the snail decided otherwise
Nope
Nope, only Baisic Skyflashes. There were no Skyflashes Super nor Active Skyflashes on the phantoms. The fact that Skyflashed do shenanigans in WT is separate topic.
I think it was just that Dechirped Sidewinders werent planned. AIM9L/Is dont fall under that

It’s not a carbon copy, the latter has the distinction of being heavier with absolutely no benefit
The benefit is that the seeker head is (slightly) better at flare resistance and target detection. Slightly.
Not even towards the end of their service life in the 90s?
Nah, The Supers were created after phantoms were out, and only on the TEMP, that is why we have SuperTEMP. When it comes to Active is is based on STEMP so also no.
The Supers were created at the tail end of the tail end of the Phantoms’ service not after. But yeah it’s sad to see them severely lacking against aircraft developed 20 years before they were put out of service.
