Major Update “Air Superiority” - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 4)

absolutely zero clue honestly but that means that they plan on doing something with the radars

I’ve also noticed TWS circles in regular search on occasion, even in radars without TWS, on the Dev server

im still waiting on das final part 4 getting an english sub lol

Part of me thinks that the thing for Italy that “wasn’t ready yet” (the one Oxy mentioned on the dev stream) may be a Hungarian-leased Gripen C lmao

Itd make sense

Iirc its literally the last thing they get as an upgrade until the Tornado then the Aermacchi

It would, and it’d honestly make the situation regarding Sweden getting the “worse” Gripen out of three nations even funnier (it wouldn’t even be worse by all that much)

Its annoying we’re getting the worst one but we’re getting the C in a few months so I can wait

Yeah
I can’t exactly blame y’all for being upset about it (I do feel kinda bad for laughing about it)

I don’t think so. It was likely the RN Leonardo Da Vinci.

Besides, Italy could still get a Gripen if given a Brazil subtree. Makes more sense than Hungary.

Oh ya, that came out this year, didn’t it? All the artwork of the new Crusader gals to be with Rosehip made me forget.

Thing is though, Italy already has both Hungarian tanks and helicopters

And adding a Hungarian aircraft doesnt necessarily mean a sub tree it could be a one off filler

I hope that 's not the plan - would mean no chance of getting that freely researchable Su-22M3

came out in october just haven’t got an english sub yet

ah. If it’s like last year we will see one by the end of the month.

I’m waiting on a dub for it.

Italy equipped its F-16s with AMRAAMs, and they could very well get AIM-9Ms in the future. I’m expecting Italy’s next top jet to be an F-16B bl 15 ADF with both of those.

Yes, and I’m saying give that to Germany. Brazil has plently of helicopters that could go in, plently of air and ground. Brazil and Italy have had more and longer military relations than Italy and Hungary.

I uhhh… don’t think it’s possible for Gaijin to just outright transplant two entire sub trees to a different nation like that

Yeah, I don’t think they’ll ever do it
