I’m guessing this winter.
December counter: 3
1 or 2 updates from now.
depends on how gaijin wants to progress with this; i’d expect an update with “less powerful” airframes but the same or better missiles first…
1 or 3, you mean.
Seeing how germany is supposed to get an sub tree apparently i would say the typhoons are coming later
potential for a swiss f-18 i guess
I am gonna throw my head in for a possible trialed gripen c to fill the CAS role as well.
This addition could come as soon as next patch while f/a 18c might come in 2 or later if gajin wants to add the A variant for US first
At this point they can jump straight to C model to give some tech trees a bit more options. They can always introduce A model later. Or maybe both at the sime time who knows?
they never did that, with all variants they always added the first ones first
They did add the Gripen C to Britain and Gripen A to Sweden at the same time. Tho they changed the A to be pretty much identical to the C
yes and even then its an exception because both UK and sweden desperately needed those
You need to look at all the US airfact F-16, F-15, F-14 etc
On those specifically yes, they were always one after the other
There’s also F-16A and ADF being added in same patch. Mig-29 9.12 was added after Mig-29 9.13 too. Let’s not forget Mig-23 MLD/MLA/ML situation. I’m fairly certain there are some early jets/props being added after their more modern versions.
There’s no such rule.
They changed the A because they weren’t on par despite them being identical eventually as the A models were upgraded to what the C would be. Again it wouldn’t have been a problem if gaijin had added the A when the F16C was added. It was an artificial problem gaijin created same thing with the mig 23ML and mig 29 being added to germany and update later despite them not being that different. Now if the MLD was added the same time germnay got the ML i would’ve been upset also because its not fair.

Speaking of the EFT, will germany get the same model as britain and italy on launch? Thats what i want to know.
Yes all three have a production T1 for Gaijin to model from which are the same, Italy received PIRATE in T1 but afaik only on a twin seater so I don’t think they’d add that also it might have been on a DA airframe.
I’d expect T1 to be identical for all with 120B and AIM-9Li.
Aw, i wouldnt mind a two seater but oh well. Besides italy has easily the best top tier rn for variety so heres hoping.
nah theyll 100% not give it PIRATE, just to make sure its the worst one, itll also likely come 1 update late, if not more, in true gaijin tradition of screwing german air players

I mean they should just argue that the vehicle can mount it, its a universal thing right? I mean its the same reason the gripen A got improved slightly from being the worst gripen for 3 updates and why the swed gripen C took 3 weeks to be on par with the rest of the gripens after they were all given AGM 65G. I dont see any reason they shouldnt add PIRATE to the german EFT.
I mean, they could, and itd be less work if they did just include it, which is usually in gaijins wheelhouse, but if theres one thing gaijin always goes the extra mile in doing, its screwing germany just cuz they think its funny
