Germany should also get the KF41 Lynx

Go to Wot and there you will find the fictional tank

That’s some bad logic if i’ve ever seen any. The company being German automatically makes this vehicle German, place of origin and technological ties (seeing as it shares systems with the Puma… those being the cannon and ammunition which were both developed for Germany and paid for by German tax, the engine as well, the armour too, can’t forget the transmission… oh and the sights! Right, the tracks too! And yes, the SPIKE ATGM as well).

It still is a German vehicle, through and through in any context… well, the one that’s competing in the US is half-German, since it’s being co-developed, so at least there’s that.

they also have that haha funny Ajax that causes permanent hearing damage and other chronic conditions to those who ride in it!

you are aware every time the Lynx KF 41 was demonstrated it was a german crew that demonstarted it

well, they might be working on it, i like to think they are working on it, but this list equates to basicly a full vehicle rework.

My current (partially hopefull, arguably most logical) theory is that the Puma S1 isnt being added because they cant just slap spikes on it and call it a day because they’ll have a duplicate shitshow of bug reports. Its likely getting a full new model rework that will be retroactively applied to the puma.

As for how long that’ll take, probs over a year, hene why they say its not coming for the foreseeable future

that is my best guess as well, but who knows how long that will need

besides that i would love to test /try out the APS system of the KF 41 and what worries me more is with the same logic in the future they would deny Germany the KF 51 Panther, because of those reason we need to fight for the right that future Rheinmetall vehicles do have a place in their home country

The F-4F Peace Rhein which we have ingame as the F-4F Late (or just F-4F Phantom II) in the tech tree is the variant that got AN/ALE 40 countermeasure dispensers, AGM-65 Mavericks and AIM9L Sidewinders. Peace Rhein and F-4F ICE (which is the one you were probably thinking off) are not the same

Considering the Kurnass 2000 with 6 Python 3s and 234 countermeasures ( and also a way better radar but that doesnt make a difference because it lacks radar missiles) is at 11.3, I wouldnt be surprised to see the F-4F Peace Rhein with AIM9Ls at 11.0. And thats only if you just look at its Air combat capabilities. The Kurnass 2000 is also WAY better for CAS, with up to 6 Paveways or 6 AGM-65D Mavericks and 2 Paveways than the F-4F which only has 2!!! AGM-65B Mavericks, without any targeting pod of any kind

iirc after the recent puma breakdowns and silence from KMWs side, the German Gov told Rheinmetall to trail a KF41. only after KMW went into overdrive fixing the rapid reponds unit Pumas in notime.

You could give it 9l and leave it at 10.7. There’s already a ton of 9l carriers at that br and lower. UK gets another at 10.3 next patch.

To be fair, those arent comparable to the F-4F in terms of flight performance.

This is true, but idk how much a difference it would make with how many missiles there are anyway. You either have flares and live or don’t and die immediately.

And was also upsets me about this bs situation is that Italy literally just got the Freccia an IFV with the exact same missiles. But they decide to give Italy a German IFV that they did not need and screw over German mains who desperately need this vehicle and should have gotten it first because ITS A GERMAN VEHICLE.

Lmfao

Even then German mains have been asking for the KF41 for years and when it finally comes gaijin flips them the bird and gives it to Italy. Most of us aren’t even mad that Italy/Hungary is getting it we’re mad that a vehicle of German origin and make isn’t even coming to Germany.

Exactly, I feel the same way having to argue with some of these people here…

because unlike other export vehicles, the sole actual operator of the KF41 is ingame in the form of Hungary

In 2 years when Gaijin finally deigns to put it into game, and again, this is a GERMAN VEHICLE
