Mind showing me where the antenna is?
The one behind the cockpit is the ECM Antenna and the smaller one is the IFF Antenna, but i am not sure if the ECM Antenna was from day 1 or came with the 80
The use of Norm 83 (low level forest camo) is also a giveaway that it’s a later Alpha Jet.
Camouflage is not always a good way of determining what variant of vehicle is coming.

Yea, (F-4F Early, with a skin from a RF-4E(Panther skin)
True, but Gaijin generally keeps aircraft camo accurate to the variant. If it were an earlier variant, Norm 72 would be appropriate.
But I guess we will just have to wait until the dev stream.
EDIT: Note the lack of the ECM antenna and anti-collision light

That depends on if Gaijin will get the licensing. Also the part about the A-80 upgrade doesnt seem to mention IR countermeasures it seems. Is that correct?
They are mentioned in another source, but in this old brochure, yes
We dont need that, because we have the flight manuell and actual pictures from the countermeasures
And also other which i cant share here
Is it this picture? Because I heard claims about this being of a different modification. If thats incorrect, I would be glad
Added some pics

Thank you
Those were planned for the alpha jet ice, an upgrade that was never performed. The alpha jet doesn’t get any guided A2G irl.
We could receive the Portuguese variant (or any other German export) as a premium, just like Italy received its Portuguese Gina. Gina R/4 also needs a successor.
However, Dornier carried out some tests with different versions of guided weapons, developed in-house. So it would not be a compromise to improve the CAS capability of the Alpha Jet, taking into account that Germany needs a good CAS in the medium ranges.
could You share imagines or proofs that prove this?
Most likely it will be like the Su-25, first an early version and then a later version. But I hope they add Pampa to this list)
