Major Update 'Alpha Strike" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

Yes and no. Everyone else gets their Gripen C and can grind it ahead of time before fox 3s drop. Sweden will have to wait for their OWN domestic designed aircraft, grind it under fire of fox 3s, buy the aircraft, and grind the modules while everyone else is just one module away from their fox 3s.

(I don’t play Sweden just for clarification.)

Tho the IS jaguar is a solid turd at 11.0 lmao, i cant keep my energy

Ahhh oki

The RB75 and AGM 65B are mostly (if not completely) identical, also since these small differences seem so important to you, the Gripen A gets rocket pods, which the C doesn’t.

In the end, the Paveways are the best choice for CAS with the Gripens anyways, both get them, both can use them in the same loadout

So in other words.

Sweden gets the first version of their early plane, like almost every single nation which manufactures their own equipment. Which won’t later get sent up to ARH BR whenever that happens and can continue to terrorise lower brs? This is somehow bad?

Mind explaining how they differ?

Ive had much better luck with the SAAf agms then the swedish. Perhaps just poor conditions but my luck has just been better playing britain when i do play cas. Ive had the RB 75 get close on a still target then just go 1 mile away and hit a bush lol.

They should have gotten it earlier alongside ADF, and then Gripen C when the UK got theirs.

The Gripen A and every other 12.3-12.7 aircrafts will be sucked up into the blackhole of fox 3 combat and constantly face uptier MMs, so that’s not accurate either.

That depends on if gaijin keeps the 12.7 br with the new missles. But gaijin seems very against putting new jets up in br lol.

You cant keep your energy in any iirc. Just how quickly you regain it.

It seems like they’ve been tweaking radars and chaff a ton in the data mines recently, maybe notching will actually become viable?

Judging by the flight performance sweden should definitely not have gotten the Gripen in the same update that brought the MiG-29A and F-16 ADF

If they move the new fox 3s to 13.3, Gripen A gets sucked up there. If they keep 12.7, Gripen A still gets sucked up and has to defend against fox 3s. So either way, neither situation is optimal for it.

higher zoom and you can lock moving targets from longer distances

If you mean the JAS39A should have come in Apex Predators alongside the F-16A ADF, then I really have absolutely nothing to say.

Like how F-5C totally gets dragged to 11.3 premium spam every match?

I doubt that.

I normally try to just boom in zoom with them but man i just love how they look. Kinda like the gr.1 looking better then the gr.3 harrier because it has such a goofy ahhh nose.

I agree it’s not good but it’s not that bad

It must certainly should have, because what it has in flight performance is sacrificed in armaments. The Skyflash is nowhere on par with AIM-7M and R-27ER.
