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

That’s always the case. That’s also why I have doubts about the Gripen and the AMRAAMs

Gripen was confirmed by the developers
Smin has stated a new top tier jet is coming for UK this year

AMRAAMs are total speculation beyond:
There’s AIM120 and R77 in the CDK, with models
There’s loadouts datamined with AMRAAMS + AIM9Ms which is evidence it’s being tested

and the fact that Gripen can only run AMRAAM

IR missiles only moment lmao

Yeah… wouldnt surprise me, though historically accurate SAAF Gripen with IRIS-T vs F16Cs could be fun though

Yeah, but also like Smin has stated, something being tested doesn’t mean it’s guaranteed to get added anytime soon

Leaked, not datamined.

True for AMRAAMs, not for Gripen and UK top tier jet.

Though, I do always caution this. “UK Top Tier jet” by no mean guarantees

A) It will actually be competitive or even usable at top tier

B) Be A2A.

That report got declined, didnt it?

@Smin1080p

Could I ask if gaijin is planning to add a light tank to germany between the puma and m41? There is a giant gap for ages and would be nice if it would be filled

These could be an iris-t)
But i highly doubt

It’d be Rb.74

I know gaijin has a history of questionable balancing decisions, but even for them adding IRIS-Ts at this point would be unthinkable

There is the possibility of them giving the Gripen Skyflashes, as those were proposed to be used on the A model

Nothing “big” coming for French navy or in the pipeline ?

We found a ~4.3 DD in the files, cool but nothing that make the TT really interesting to grind because no “big boy” at the end of the tree. Lacking 7.0 capable ships unlike other nations (where Dunkerque class? :p), and still no coastal, so can’t help ingame for some caps.

Pretty sad shape for now :/ Any words?

If it was a soviet missile, it would have been added by now. Unfortunately, Sweden and definetly britain will be the last nations in game to see Gen 5 IR missiles. Despite the fact ASRAAM entered service first by several years.

The specific model was Gripen C I think, that was confirmed
It could very well be a case of AIM-9Ls and a ton of A2G

not as far as I know, from what I know it got passed after a bit more was given

ah the C, used by Hungary, I think I need not say more
