yeah t4 can come with the current service F-22 tbh
t2 early aesa 4th gen, t3 late 2000s-2010s upgrades, t4 with current upgraded 4th gen and 5th gens
I think the gripen would also be a jet that would heavily benefit from adding EW

rafale and US and from what ive heard, russians, will greatly benefit aswell
So the EF with the towed decoys
towed decoys arent really EW, theyre ECM
MB, but you still know what I mean right?
And besides that the EF can still jam radars with its wingtip pods right?
Good points but I have little trust in a rework happening or even if it does it being competently done.
yeah, theyll be tricky but not uncounterable.
as for ECM, i think itll be hard to model since to my knowlege there isnt much info out there about them in general as far as specs go. the only thing i know for sure is that the AESA radar of an aircraft is generally more powerfull than seperate ECM systems, which is why the F-22 and F-35 ECM are really good at jamming stuff.
There would also be also air craft that aren’t top-tier that would benefit from jamming being modeled.
For example the Mig21 with its countermeasure dispenser / jammer

Yeah, but I had all 3 Typhoons in my team. British, Italian and German. And I am without Typhoon :=(
yeah, bunch of F-4 can get some form of ECM too iirc, i hope they add the F-4G soon
So the f111
oh no, the EF-111 didnt have any weapons iirc, unless you mean the F-111A/F had ECM?
The f111 can carry jamming pods.
They did that over Vietnam on bombing missions afaik

I really doubt this game has the functionality to offer even the most basic of ECM simulation. Even DCS has to settle for a greatly simplified rendition of it.
PIRATE is not yet confirmed for our tranche 4 aircraft.
Currently only IPA 7 in germany would come as an aircraft with AMK and PIRATE. And would propably the last airframe in our tree.
Since tranche 4 and 5 are still long way away
Find something in 4 bar. Dots are enough, focus on it in 2 bar narrow. It works well but usually you are limited in engaging 2 targets at best. Usually one only.
