Major Update “Air Superiority” - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 3)

But the gap between those 2 would be smaller

Not really. It would get datalink, which is massive, but the missile is simply too slow to compete against the r27er.

the f15 that is coming is the early model that can’t carry aim-120 but don’t worry that is very likely that in the next update you receive your aim-120 with a newer version of the f15

I’d be fine with this if they both released in the same update, like the F16 ADF and F16 originally

Idk if there are SARH missile as fast as R-27ER

Honestly after the mig29g shenanigans, This is probably the correct answer.

Yep with every other nation also getting theirs

I’m unsure if only the F15 would get datalink, assuming we get it in the first place it might be a 12.3 wide upgrade

How i see it is, if it doesnt have radar missles there is absoultely not way it wont have the 9ms to make it useable, if it doesnt have aim9m’s its just gonna be a viggen

Some bad news for you swedes so unless gaijin have made a franken model of Gripen it’s a Gripen A. It’s not the C variant which likely means no Gripen C and results in bad news for Britain being no SAAF Gripen C. So likely hood is Britain is going to get a DOA sea harrier fa2.

The JAS 39C will

It’s just the aim7p. If they were to add it to other fighters they could use it too, but considering they refused to add r73 to older migs or yak141, Idk anymore.

Afaik we really didn’t talk about BR and compression.

You think theses new planes gonna push the max BR up finally ?

Shame it’s not the Gripen C it’s the A as it has double nose wheel landing gear

I was referring to datalink in general, sorry

To 12.7

Then idk. If they do add AWACS, they everyone capable should get it imo. If gripens could share their radar data over datalink like irl then they could be decent still.

The C has it as well you can tell its the C because of the fuel probe

It’s a light fighter and it appears to be the Gripen A at that to. It will probably perform near the F-16A in terms of overall performance.

I feel as if with the current armaments the F15 doesn’t deserve anything higher than 12.3, decompressing everything else maybe

But this is Gaijin, nothing is moving lmao
