Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 2)

the ECR has no cannons and is lacking some armament…

Just like most designated ECM planes

yes but why suffer like that when their is an better option available for the tech tree?, besides that there is stuff like the dispenser pods, jdams , taurus etc which the ecr didnt use

ASSTA 3.1 will probably be a ‘late’ tornado along with something like the Tornado Gr4 in the TT.

we might get the assta 3.1 earlier then the Gr4 lol xD, no brimstone capability

True, but also no guarantee that it will come with Brimstone from start and I actually don’t think Brimstones would be all the OP if they were modeled like AGM65Ds.

did Britain not use the ECR tornado?

I swear some tornados had ECMs equipped

They used the GR variants as ECM platforms, in some cases even the F.3 for SEAD operations

the basic tornados had ecm equipped as well, the ECR was just specialised in scouting and had some more sensors

ahh ok, might have been an italian one i saw then

the roundels are similar enough when you are sleep deprived

the ASSTA 1 and even the Marineflieger could already equip ECM pods if they were in the game

Pretty sure they’ll add the GR4 without brimstones if they are actually planning on adding more top tier strike jets at the moment

yeah propably, was mostly a joke to tease morvan, they will likely add the brimstone at a later time

i could see an update focused around the SU-24, Tornado GR4/ late german and a later F111 variant in the near future

If they even add Brimstones at all lol

I really can’t see that happening with the current state of SPAA in GRB

better dont let the brits hear that xD, besides that they definitly need to i want them equipable for the german typhoon at least

oh please god dont mention the later tornados as equivalents as su 24 or f111, their performance and ordanance doesnt change by all to much

Mate, I’m a britain player myself, Brimstones would be incredibly impressive, but GRB really doesn’t need that kind of CAS capabilities

tell that the 2 propably 3 with how loud they are screaming helicopters they did add with spike ers, it isnt all to far away from er 2 away anymore

I mean, it does make quite a big difference whether those are mounted on a helicopter or a plane lol
