Then don’t buy it? It’s optional.
It’d send a message to gaijin.
It would be like if they turned around and said the su-39 can’t have ircm and is limited to 60 CMs because of a balancing decision, but added an identical su-39 to another TT which had both but were at the same BR

I don’t think that would change much tbh. Good SARHs and good pilots would outplay the Su-39, but if you said X Su-39 had r-77s and Y Su-39 had only r-60s, then it would be more egregious.
The NA has no maw correct?
Gaijin releasing a gimped British vehicle???
Who could’ve seen this coming???
I personally see no reason for it to not get BOL, and it’s a shame that an interesting plane is ruined by gaijins refusal to model stuff accurately, as well as them not decompressing the BRs.

Thats also not the point. We wanted this aircraft and this unique version. But we assumed gaijin would make it equal to one they already have in a different tech tree
Instead we get told, if you want this in the British tree, you can have worse flight performance and also not get the extra countermeasures for "balance’ even tho, its worse…
Im happy to pay for it, even pre order it. But right now its not even equal to the AV8B (which i also preordered, im not biased to nations i love the harriers)

Correct but has a more powerful engine, is lighter, has a slightly better gun but with more ammo and far better A2G payload for ASB.
All while having triple the CM count. We are asking for 2x BOL which, with the fake BOL nerfs. Would still work out to be approximately 20 CMs less than the AV-8B(NA)
But it’s only a rear aspect MAWS and not even all-aspect like the A-10C with 480 CMs at 11.7
Given the sea harrier FRS1 is pretty close to beating it in performance and is 11.0. it’s hard to justify the T.10 in this current state

Judging by nothing heard today by the CM, i assume its a good thing and its being considered. Else we would have heard “nah suffer i guess. Pay to suffer”

Yeah, we can hope
That star is on the former Type 90 Fuji preorder pack
I’m waiting for the premium F-16. When could it be added?
Please define what is better about the gun? A burst from either will surely down an enemy jet.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the NA is 11.7, this is 11.3 in SB.
I’m glad you think the A-10C should go up in br. Me too! It’s almost like I’ve said is Way too OP for 11.3 (what is originally was) and should match the Su-25SM3 at 12.0
At best I could agree to bumping the cms to 100, but 60 is still far better than 32 or 12 for that matter. It is still quite usable. And the MAW will undoubtedly save you.
there’s one coming this update

The f-18
its 11.3
you forgetting the netz?
GAU12 has a better fire control and more ammo. Mixed with the tracers it makes a way more enjoyable experience then the 25mm adens.
MAW will make me aware of what i will be dying too since ive spent the 60cm flaring things ive been watching

Better faster fire rate, more ammo, faster velocity, less recoil (ADEN’s have an awful kick down on the GR.7 and T.10), and frankly better ammo. The 25mm from the ADEN’s are perfect for getting kill assists as they will get you nothing but hits.

a hell of a lot more ammo and tracers. trust me the tracer is a big bonus
ADEN 25s have no tracers, and the british harrier IIs don’t get EEGS, so in general it takes an extremely long time to get to the point of actually hitting anything, especially given the pretty high velocity compared to other guns a player would be used to.

cant put to much effort into a Japanese vehicle. ctrl + C and ctrl + V was already to much effort
