Yeah that’s true, I wonder what else will get R-73/Aim-9M?
i hope for the Aim 9L(I) which essentialy is the same then 9M
Yeah, dpeends if they want to spend their dev time on it just “Aim-9M is close enough for now”
meaned the 1 grippen britain owns itself, it is 1 trainer
Its
A) Why/where would you put SA stuff in the TT
B) They were only equipped with IRIS-T/A-Darter
Ah ok
That wasn’t the point of my comment tho
It would be unique in the field of advanced military trainers. Since 1948, either Soviet fighters have been produced in accordance with the member states of the Warsaw Pact, or only advanced training and light fighters. L-29, L-39.
Since these were also used by the Soviet Union, they will probably be added to that tree and also to the German and Italian/Hungarian development tree.
So looking at the stats the Typhoon F1 is better than the Gripen but not by much though.
As they recently got a swiss jet in their tree, there is certainly a clear indication of a possible introduction of further swiss aircraft.
And since Germany has basically nothing to provide when other nations get more advanced jets, Gaijin has to chose between killing Germany in terms of top tier, or introducing at least one sub-tree.
The best option for Gaijin (and us players) should be ovious.
Ah, fair enough
Yeah, only thing missing is turn rate and acceleration/TWR
I don’t think that is a issue at top tier lol
maybe number of hardpoints, dont know how many grippen got
It might be
based upon Eurofighter Typhoon (EF2000) vs Saab JAS 39 Gripen (Griffin) Comparison that Deathmisser shared 10
vs the typhoon 13
But I dont know how many are AAM only or A2G only, I know Typhoon is 10? AAM hard points
Yea I would imagine the Typhoon has better since it’s like 100 Mph faster
Wouldn’t be the first time for Gaijin to not tell the truth :D
I am still hoping for the best…excluding Germany from top tier aircraft in the future can’t be an option.
We will hopefully see soon, what Gaijin is planning and doing (not just telling) in this case.
