That’s the British name for the F4F
He means the event version of the f4f that is incredibly uncommon

Why would GPS only Spear-3 be unreasonable?
Unlike Grom-1, they dont have any meaningful warhead, so wont be an OP base destroyer and the US already has the GBU-39 for mass launched GPS glide weapon.
Yeah… and yet I love how people claim the Typhoon has the strongest A2G performance at the moment.
That is very unrealistic, personally would rather just not have it than have it all messed up, since that isn’t a SPEAR 3 anymore
Nor is a Brimstone a Brimstone without MMW. But here we are
Spear-3 as GPS only for now, and then maybe GPS+SAL in the relatively near future would be a good option for a longer ranged stand off weapon whilst we await MMW
ill give you a hint its because we said the US doesnt need to get something just because the UK is
There are 2 other Typhoon operators inagme
fair enough
And those have their own threads, this one is for the UK one
neither of which have tested the spear 3 (I would assume they would get them like how they got brimstone 1s)
Yeah they would, jsut like how they got PW4s as well.
At least they are buying a later variant of the Brimstone. I dont think they have any intention of buying PW4s
But I dont necessarily think that is all that unfair. Its a shame for unqiueness sake, but for game balance not giving them Spear-3s would kinda suck for them.

yeah which is why im fine with it, I could careless about the US getting yet another bomb just because the UK got a slightly better version
Italian one is basically useless, no one talks there. This one and the german one are the relevant ones, also anything that happens to one eurofighter will also affect the others.
Yes ik but i felt the need to point it out since he made a point of mentioning them
Yeah they probably would
Yeah that’s fair, but SPEAR 3 would almost certainly end up on all typhoons
Most likely, but the specific mentions of the uk are mainly due to the thread being the uk one, not because of any personal bias, thats all i was trying to convey

yeah im fine with that since it means that EFTs will probably all get IRIST and ASRAAM which is a little silly lol
