What Aircraft could Germany (Natively, via sub-Tree or some one and done Addition like the F-14A IRIAF) theoretically get that can use Fox 3 Missiles that aren’t strictly top Tier (for Example at the Br Range like the F-16C or AV-8B Plus) and that are also not based on Airframes from the late 1950’s/early 1960’s.
Germany already has this in the F-4F ICE
That’s indirectly the Plane I’m complaining about
Sadly I don’t think there is one. Switzerland doesn’t have anything fitting your description. For Germany it’s the F4F ICE and I can’t really think of a plane similar to the F14 IRIAF that Germany could get
Austrian EFT?
Hm Tranche 1 EFTs would be a possibility but they dont fit in Natanis BR frame. The AV8B is 13.0 and the F16C is 13.7, i personally cant see any EFT being lower than 14.0 in Air RB
lol
IIRC someone told me austrian EFTs are limited to IR only so of anything, they would be like JAS39A or the first belgian F-16.
Likely none without getting another subtree.
13.0 is reserved for legacy platforms with ARHs. For germany that would be KWS, which is already in game, switzerland didnt have any.
13.3./13.7 maybe something like F-16 ADF or F-16D, but neither germany nor switzerland operates those. Argentian (TAM, Sk-105) stuff is prolly not on the table, same with Poland.
So your best bet is to grind other trees - UK with F.3 late and Shar, Japan with Super Tigris, Italy and US with Harrier II, maybe if you want to shill out some GJN israel with Kfir C.10.
None
No Swiss aircraft fits this description
Would have to be related to the nation in some way (F-14A IRIAF being American by origin). Germany’s only domestic modern jets are the Tornado, Eurofighter and Alpha Jet. Germany never used Fox 3s on Tornado, Eurofighters are too good and Alpha Jet is a light subsonic attacker and has never had more than IR missiles. The only other operator of the Tornado is Saudi Arabia, which had the ADV which uses the SuperTEMP. Still not a fox 3.
*Closest link outside of domestic German aircraft would just be any other NATO nation really. But that’s a can of worms waiting to be opened.
I Personally hate how Gaijin gave Netherlands to the French because that locked Germany to the F-4F. France could’ve received the F-5 and F-16 via Morocco, the Sukhoi Family with Algeria or even it’s own Strike Drone with the TAI Anka used by the tunisians. France even has the Possibility to get the Su-57 from Algeria. Meanwhile Germany is stuck with a modernised Plane from the late 1950s, robbed of Chance to taste the F-16.
Arent all F16s in the french tree belgian anyway? So giving the Netherlands to France was even more unnecessary
dutch airforce also operates/operated F-16s.
or, this might sound crazy - since the F-16 wouldnt be german anyway, why not research it in different TT?
Yeah i know thats why i said that giving Belgium and the Netherlands to France was unnecessary when germany could have used a dutch subtree much more. And it would have made more sense given the integration between the german and dutch militaries
I am not interested in grinding another 200 Hours just to get a single Plane in a TT I don’t care about
And I don’t really think that many People are interested in that either way
held same opinion up until like 2023, ive been branching out of germany for the past two years and what do you know, theres lot of interesting and fun stuff in other TTs as well. Give it a chance is all im saying.
No, nonsense
