There’s a good chance it is, but at least it looks pretty cool.
Given the state of such tanks like Challenger TES, Britian is just Aesthetic before Function atm.
Vickers looks cool and thats good enough
I just need to see if the Type 81s been cucked or not
Was the M109 variant in the trailer identified? I mean if it’s added for at least the US and Israel I would guess it would be A3 or A5 right?
A1s rumored apparently

The British use the M109 too, no? Just under a different name?

I made a little comparasion
Give us the Abbot
I don’t expect it to be good, tbh, but it’s aesthetic and quick. If nothing else it’ll be fun
Plus Rooikat 105 is a premium, so this is a decent TT analogue
Did Israel even operate A1s? I only found A3 and A5 in my very quick google search. I know people here are way better with this stuff.
Quick google search says that they did operate early versions. But again take it with a grain of salt, I don’t think I’m that good with stuff like this.

Israels variant will more then likely be different

The shear amount of heartbreak I felt seeing the trailer, and for a brief moment, misidentifying in the thumbnail, the C-17s tail as an Avro Vulcan.
Realising its not, and its a tail - getting excited it might be a Handley Page Victor
Then its just a C17…
now waiting… and heart break

Not under a different name just as the Paladin, I personally don’t want it tbh, there’s other indigenous design’s that could be added instead (the abbot, a 105, and the AS-90, a 155 system)

Probably an F-111A, as per the 1974 SAC the only relevant armament is 24x( MER by 4) M117E1 750lb, [4958.88]kg total HE) and a rear quadrant IR MAWS (AN/AAR-34), it is otherwise completely unarmed.
going by the 1990 SAC it is reduced to 16x M117, 20x Mk82 500lb or 4x Mk. 84 and their high / low drag & airdropped mine counterparts.
It still has no Cannon, A2A or (non nuclear) A2G missile armament. I don’t know where the AGM-12 armament came from that was shown off in the trailers.
The only other thing of note is that it could additionally carry various Cluster bombs (SUU-30 & CBU-99/-100 derivatives) on said MER stations.
All in all, going by the documentation it’s a completely unarmed F-105 that accelerates faster. and will paly similarly to the B-57A (an RP piñata that poses absolutely no threat) at a much higher BR. so unless it gets ECM modeled (it only carries an internal AN/ALQ-137 ECM set)it’s going to be facing missiles that will hunt it down with absolutely no way to do anything unless they go for guns.

Sounds like Buccaneer with afterburner honestly. Kinda cool!

Considering that the F-105 is almost in the same boat and somehow manages to sit a 10.7, I would expect it to turn up somewhere between 11.0 and 11.3 so it will likely be seeing the R-27ERs and AIM-54s, the only other thing would be the A2G radar being modeled, but that impacts practically all US Strike aircraft between 8.7 through 11.7 at this point.
ha as predicted Stream 16:00
probably the guy who got the informations mistook Vickers mk II ( aka 11) with Vickers mk2. so this is another point that this leaklist seems legit.
I was about to say no it absolutely isn’t, but I forgot Arcade existed. It’s 10.0 in RB lol
