Indian Mig29 to UK tree and Rafale

Engines have been licensed to Pratt &Whitney, i can assure you that my boy,…

Do your search,…

Bristol-Siddeley Pegasus Mk. 5 Turbofan Engine | National Air and Space Museum.
The unique Pegasus engine powers all versions of the Hawker Siddeley Harrier multi-role military aircraft. Rolls-Royce licensed Pratt & Whitney to build the Pegasus for US built versions. However Pratt & Whitney never completed any engines, with all new build being manufactured by Rolls-Royce in Bristol, England.

Rafale and Mig29K aside, India’s Su30mki as an international project follow-up to the Super Sukhoi transformation has nothing to do with Russia(I guess the Russian Su30 must be able to launch Astra missiles XDDDDDDDD), why not join the UK? So will China’s su27 variant not be able to join the game? Racists are a bunch of clowns

Thats just so funny mate
your getting beaten by Razer

Pretty sure the SU-30MKI also uses ASRAAM, It’s not that the UK would necessarily need it though as I’d expect Eurofighters soon after the SU-30M

For once,… but yet, this wasn’t explainned on the Harrier Siddeley Wikipedia pages, but only in the engine page of Wikipedia.

That’s just show how Wikipedia is unsafe.

I hopefully in the future gajin add indian fighter aircraft 12.3 & 12.7 BR such as MiG-21UPG Bison, Mirage 2000i, Sea Harrier FRS.51 (2012), MiG-29UPG and Mirage 2000H before Su-30MKI upgrade by HAL & Rafale EH

MiG-29K offers a 12.7 option, the 2009-2019 standard without Fox-3s
The CF-18A would be 12.3, it simply doesn’t have the flight performance for 12.7
CF-18A+ would be at least 13.3, AMRAAMs are crazy good
The Eurofighter would be at least 13.3, AMRAAMs are crazy good
So they’re all different BRs and very different vehicles, why not add them all?

we don’t need the Indian stuff

This it’s hard to tell, depending on the decision of gajin

Well they already had 12.7 Gripen C (the most OP plane in the game according to a lot of six ER slinger) and if it receives fox three along with other it will be very good plane or CF-18A or Australian F-18 Typhoon seem too much for game at the moment
Sea Harrier with AMRAAM also nice choices

We do
The Mig 29k would be great

No we don’t. It would be USSR lite with colourful camouflages.

From what i can remember there is a difference in avionics between the FOC and IOC. The IOC has older avionics(non touch screen MFD) and it also lacks a 23mm cannon. The FOC has a cannon with about 400 rounds(not sure about this).

No non British anything in the UK tech tree please.

I think there are a lot of good vehicle options with unique combinations of western, Indian and Russian technologies. I wish there was a separate TT nation for India but Gaijin seems to be hellbent on adding them to the GB TT. Honestly I think its not that bad either. UK gets a good 4th and 4.5 gen fighter jet lineup and tanks other than the Chally.

Not at all. Yes there were a lot of Soviet aircraft in Indian service(literally all the Mig2X series of fighters), but there were also other aircraft such as the Folland Gnat(which hasn’t been added to the game yet), Canberra, HF24 Marut(first Indian indigenous fighter jet), Ajeet(another indigenous aircraft).

Even the 4th gen fighters which were bought from Russia had indigenous modifications and weapon systems. The Su30MKI and Mig29K can utilise a lot of weapon systems that you won’t find in the Russian TT. I agree that the Rafale and Mirage2000 probably shouldn’t be added, but if Taiwan is getting a Mirage2000 then why the hell not. Its too early for Rafale but honestly the upgraded Mig21 Bison, Su30MKI, Tejas(Mk1 and later Mk1A), Mig29K, Jaguar MAX should all be eventually added to the tree

Luftwaffe and Budeswehr actually used those tanks and aircraft as well so no u cant take those away.
Thats why FRG and GDR are the exception.

Im getting beyond sick and tired of the dilution of tree’s uniqueness due to the implementation of massive amounts of copy pastes in all trees.

Its also a massive issue in sim, where mixed nations lead to accidental teamkills and getting kicked from the game, particularly in air, where the literal only way to IFF someone is with your radar in search mode.

This suggestion is horrible, the gripen should also be removed, but arguably a bit more ok, because both sweden and britain are technically conventionally BLUEFOR nations (though WT matchmaker screws that up sometimes.

Mixed battles has always been bad, and adding mixed nation vehicles into tech tree’s just forces us into unavoidable mixed battles.
