I really want a high BR mud mover premium for Britain.
Tornado GR1 (Early) with no guided weapons (So 9.7 in GRB) and only 9Gs (So it was 10.7/11.0 in Air) would be rather interesting imo. Especially with BL755 hopefully coming soon
(Jaguar GR1A would obviously need to go down if it was 10.7, but I think 10.3 would suit it way better at the moment)
Though a Buc S50 would also be quite interesting at 9.0
Maybe they’ll release a reskinned prototype premium, just like they did with the JH-7A（Early Tornado GR.1 or Tornado GR.1 Prototype). Getting a premium pack usually means it’s going to get buffed, but I don’t think they’ll add any new Tornado variants.
At this point they could just rename the TT one as Tornado GR.1B and make a premium as plain “GR.1” without the surface radar mode+Sea Eagle, or TIALD+Paveway for any pre-1991 version.
then that is no different to the german one with just dumb bombs
Which is exactly what the posters before me were suggesting would be a useful addition as a premium for the UK tree - a basic premium strike aircraft at a lower BR than the current GR.1, as a useable RP/SL grinder with none of the Battle Rating baggage that comes with PGMs.
Wouldn’t be 100% the same though, because they’d still stiff us with the Mk.101 engines 😑
That plus having a nice 9.7 cas that is a little better than a gr1, having 12 1000lbs on a tonka at 9.7 ground is pure bliss.
Kinda why I was thinking 9Gs instead of 9Ls. Make it unique by making it the lowest BR Tonka
That looks so much fun. I dont know why the Germans always complain about the WTD61 not having guided weapons
I have the Italian one, so good to have a decent 9.7 cas jet that isnt just a sub sonic with ccip.
Im picking at the Italian line, but only air, so that tonka is basically a waste for me.
RET8 looks like it oculd be fun for NE though
It is and isnt, you really need a map of the ec targets on your second monitor or something to really use all that it has. It moving to 12.0/12.3 in ground next update is a joke considering it only gets gps and laser bombs plus agm 88s? Like what do they expect me to do against pantsirs? Im just gonna ripple of gbu 39s (alot of fun tbf) at spawn and land, how fun.
These changes have basically just made the Pantsir S1 the meta again. i have no idea how anyone is going to do anything against it
Cant wait to try and kill one with pgms again… Just kidding, im just not going to play my tonka in ground anymore… Just kidding again i dont do that already.
Yeah, I have no idea how they expect the GR1 to do anything at 12.0 without ALARM. Honestly, I dont understand why CBUs are going to be gamemode restricted now. Because they would be the perfect buff for CAS
Wait they are? Oh cmon man i would love to run a CBU run on the enemy spawn…
Yep, being gamemode restricted, Which bodes well for MMW Brimstones and such coming for Air modes though
You have peaked my attention. I hate playing ground anyway so im all for it IF it means we get MMW brimstones sometimes this century. Would make me want a gr.9 even more tho, did any jags get fitted with hem perchance?
Not that I am aware of unfortunately.
But if specific weapons on specific aircraft could become loadout restricted than the GR1A could get ALARM
yeah, at this point, they’ve just killed hte only fun thing about ground. So i probably wont be touching it anymore
Could someone explain to me (returning) how they’ve managed to bugger up the SRAAM…
