Community Update No.8: Responses and What’s Coming!

Im still against the E, we need the NG, give a good E level flight performance Gripen thats only lacking in EW and allows for a good jet between old missiles and new ones.

Fair enough, I wouldn’t mind the NG either

So far I have only seen pics of them being deployed on parked trailers, dunno if that is because of how Sweden operates them specifically or if that variant of the Patriot system could actually be operated like the SAMP/T, Sky Sabre, SPYDER, etc
However, from what I’ve read on the forums, they seemingly cannot be used without properly deploying them first

Would also give sweden a new exclusive gripen, they are currently the most boring air nation for Rank 8 as they lack the diversity every ither nation has gameplay wise. Hoping for Norwegian F16 with IRIS-T for ground targets since thats such a unique and weird feature lol

Nordic doctrine doesn’t really see ground invasion as that much of a threat compared to naval threats, so no reason to spend more money to get a mobile platform. Norway sorta focused on that but not to a extent thats worth adding.

Finland is more so focused on Ground but for the rest of us its naval threats that are the primary concern, additionally Finnish forests are hell to navigate making most terrain very anti modern war accessible.

I mean I found this, it’s from Shutterstock so idk if it’s one from Sweden or Germany

Edit: I forgot to add that the poster put that it’s from Stockholm

I wouldn’t call them bad ideas (though Hungary, Benelux and India could’ve been in better places), it was just really poorly executed with tons of the domestic mods and vehicles ignored.

It’s from Sweden apparently, but again, it’s on a trailer and not on the truck, so I don’t know if it can be fired without being properly deployed (dunno if thats even the right word)

I mean, the trailer is supposed to have the launcher mounted on it while the trailer itself is towed by the truck

I am a little upset the dreams come true event is a plane…unless its the B58 hustler. Then they get a pass!

It’s that weird pancake plane apparently

They have that plane here where I live in a museum (its the prototype). But how the hecc is that thing going to perform in actual combat unless its like 1.0-3.0

Nah, I believe it’s the other one

This one looks a lot more combat capable than the V-173

What american SPAA is Norwegian???

The NASAMS HML which is the SLAMRAAM (Claws) in game

Slamraam, its a joint project with Kongsberg, the US pulled out in 2010 and left Kongsberg to finish the system dubbed NASAM HML

NASAMS HML (High Mobility Launcher) - Suggestions / Ground - War Thunder — official forum NASAMS HML (High Mobility Launcher) - Ground - War Thunder — official forum

The CLAWS is american lol what?? Its an american project, doesnt make it Norwegian.

Not to mention Raytheon were the ones to use the ARAAMMS and AIM 9X on the Humvee.

Claws is a joint system from Norway and the US. The whole project started because the US was interested in Kongsberg NASAM

Kongsberg was the first to use ground launched AMRAAM

Raytheon put the amramms on the back of the humvee,
