Just a shame that after a year of nothing. Sweden and Britain werent the centre point of the teaser. Instead Sweden got a few seconds and britain got nothing

not gonna happen wouldnt leave such a big jet out of the trailer its gonna be a SA gripen

Aside from all the discussion so far, I just wanted to point out that it seems, without an announcement of a second plane, or a premium, that the USSR/RuF will be getting the Su-27S which is the first production tactical air force Flanker. We still could get the PVO’s first production which would be almost the same, just without the A2G weaponry. If they added the MiG-23ML, I could seriously see them adding an Su-27 early/PVO, if not now, in the future for sure.

Ngl, I’m super excited
I probably won’t be able to get the Eagle for awhile, and the Gripen and Flanker will likely only be dreams (unless I can get the Mig-23ML and J35XS in the future), but I do know that it’s gonna be neat to see them in customs

Chill, the trailer is not everything. You can be sad if dev shows nothing

With 6x Aim-9 Lima

Hooray :D

Yeah, F18 will be its own star of the update

Ah all right. Didn’t know that.
I hope Gripen won’t be limited to just 9L’/9Li’s…

Certainly disappointing, as a brit main for naval i hate to see our tree so threadbare, but equally I feel for Japan’s too. if anything even if japan progresses, it pulls us closer to more british ships so its a little rubbish it seems nothing is coming, but hey there’s nothing we can do.

yep and be completely DOA yippe


the skin seems to be based on a 76 F-15A, I hope it is a post 83 F-15C, because before that no F-15 had ANY countermeasure capability outside of one ECM pod and those do not work ingame

USSR is the last nation to need a new air premium right now, they literaly got the best one

I meant like are they equivalent? And isn’t ASRAAM supposed to be for like super close in stuff? Wouldn’t the 50km range be at the envelope of the theoretical max range, but not the operating range?

In fairness - JH7A was left out of the trailer. When Harrier GR7 was added, that too wasn’t in the trailer.

dont know if its the same, but there is a image of an spanish EF with a dual rail and with the missiles on it

Trailers are aimed at the whole community and playerbase, showing what most people are interested in and some of the bigger parts (but not all) of the update.

Not everything is ready to be shown at this time, but it seems like the trailer achieved its intended effect.
