They still pull live munitions out of my local river because of the old Raytheon Factory lol.
Fair
No way the pinnacle of Tomcat family will be a premium

agreed it be the F4S spam all over again
Lmao at there being a skirtless StuG III.G and StuG.IV
Hilarious how it’s 2024, 10 years after Ground implementation, and some of these extremely basic and essential vehicles are still not ingame.

Yes, and that too. The results of the current event speaks for itself
You will have your £200 premium that should be in the tech tree and you will like it
plus it wouldnt make sense since they only did it once and found that it would be expesive as hell to update for aim 120 missiles
I just love that they had the Panther II (misspelled even), the Panther F and what I assume is the Tiger II 10,5cm on their original list
None of these mentioned sources can be considered primary. Mach 4+ and mach 5 capability seems like pure guesstimate
Newly modernized/ built F-14Ds had databus updates allowing for AIM-120. F-14D also received full clearance to use AIM-120. There was simply no operational need to retrofit them with AMRAAM when AIM-54 stocks still were quite full and the jet itself started being phased out of service.

I don’t have access to the sources myself but @Texas_Engineer_Mike here has looked into the matter and basically concluded that all the necessary systems for AIM-120 compatibility was in place.
The only reason F-14D wasn’t equipped with AIM-120 was because the aircraft was being phased out and the navy didn’t see the point in ordering the actual missiles. Compared to the YAK-141 this should be a really really low bar for implementation.

If a Aussi F-111 is coming I damn hope it’s for Britain.

Not likely
Consider the track record up to this point:
M1A1 AIM - USA
Leopard C2A1 - Germany
Leopard 2A4M CAN - Germany
Gaijin tends to favor the manufacturer’s nation.
I guess the exception is ADATS M113, which was placed in GB TT because it was needed there. It was also largely a Canadian domestic development, as far as I know.

Well, as we’ve been told, Canadian and Australian vehicles go where they are most needed and/or appropriate.
So, since Britain doesn’t need a F-111, an Aussie Aardvark would got to the US, if it was added
Blame Gaijin for turning India into a subtree for Britain
Good point. It seems Gaijin decided to deviate from their regular practices.
Why they did this for India and not any of the other commonwealth nations, I do not know
