True
A. Gripen
B. Leopard
C. New top tier jet for Britain
Yeah… But unless nearly every nation gets something interesting then it could suck.
Gripen C for 3 nations just straight C&P
F-15 for 3 nations just Straight C&P
and then maybe something like the J7H
It would be quite a boring update

Id expect that the new Leo will coincide with Rank 8 ground considering we have seen T-90M tracks in the files, plus didnt the M109 tracks come 1 update before the T90Ms’?
If britian and Sweden are also getting top tier jets that almost definitely suggests that AMRAAMS are coming as well, or at least F-18s given thats the only thing britian could get without AMRAAMS that would be competitve

The thing is, vark doesnt count, its not top tier
Im more worried about their definition of “top tier”
Either
A) they mean like how they consider tornado F3 as Britain “top tier” A2A fighter at the moment
or
B) we’ll get the Gr9A with the right A2G weapons for a 12.3
No gurantees in that statement and until I actually see a devblog, with the exact right ingrediants for an actual top tier fighter for Britain. then im dubious at best. The past 12 months has proven that where BRitain is concerned, they dont really know what to add and are just pulling things randomly from a hat
ALready had 6 in a row ( i think)

And I’d still think that logic is stupid. 11.7 SPAA isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. Since the changes, it’s not a guarantee to hit a plane. Really going to have to bring a jet consistently in 10.3 and above I fear.
Hopefully the SP cost is going to be very high.
Honestly if we realy get sth like leo 2a6ex or pso vt, i couldnt care less for the first t90m variant, ket them have it at that point
I saw one guys asking for Aim-9Js on every single pylon because the manuals dont explicity say that cant be done/ Give them a chance. Im sure it will be 12.7 before the week is out
Anything rank 8 counts as top tier, doesnt matter the br
But it basically has no guided weapons. AGM-12 I think is its best. So its meant for carpet bombing runs and not really precision strikes. So its going to have to get close.
Yep… and thats the problem. No guarantee that what we’ll get will be that.
There is always a chance with the SAAF Gripen that they’ll conclude it has no BVR missiles IRL and therefore will have to get the next best thing and we’ll have a Gripen C with 6x Aim-9L/M vs F-15s with AMRAAM because they are both top tiier
Watch the vark stealing every base from su 25s and a10s and any other striker and it will be faster at 11.0 same with the tornado marineflieger then u can think

I 100% expect the F-111 to be faster. Its come out in the past few days, either through deliberate nerfs or spaghetti code, that many aircraft cant actually reach their top speeds because the thrust just randomly drops when reaching high speeds (it should increase)

I hope with the additions of high tier bombers they increase the number of bases in RB cause things are gon a get wild when a single bomber can wipe all the enemy bases and have some left for the airfield

Rude. J7H is going to be a really cherished plane I think. Cool in real life, and a needed plane for China.
If it has CCIP/CCRP, and they fix the weapon selection issue so we all don’t have to remap keybinds to drop bomb series, I’d just “target point” a cap, stay high, and dump lol. It’s what I’m doing with my FAB-500’s on my Su-25’s since we still don’t have a KAB-500L in the game at all (in game files, should come already).

Lol, at least with the new mechanic, bases respawn a lot quicker.
What I mean is, its just going to be 2 “top tier” aircraft and then another rank 7/8 interdictor when they could get a multirole like the J-10 (basically what we saw last december)
Yeah, that would work. but still more chance than anything else. But those carpet bombs are going to be good
