The ones from the Hornet Upgrade Programme, yea. Gets a better radar too, tldr pretty much everything is upgraded, but sadly not the engines iirc.
That would just make me laugh to be honest.
Ill be over here trying to rewrite history with HMS Hood vs Bismarck.
Does anyone have a copy of the Project Moonflower documents?
That would shine new light on just how far the British F-117 saga got as opposed to the well know story that essentially stops at pilot evaluations in the US.
British crews regularly get posted to the US, and have been known to see action. Is this a slippery slope that leads to any US vehicle to theoretically be available for the British tree (and any other nation swaps)? The community reaction would be fun to behold!
Regardless, nothing is ever confirmed until its Confirmed.
Yeah… True…
Though 3-4 Bismarks vs 1 Hood, that might be a different story
My shift is over so guys teaser today?
The unique argument to the Aussie Hornets, unfortunately gives the US a claim to them.
I’d rather the CF-188 be the legacy the UK gets because it the only Hornet Canada can supply unlikely Australia who also has Super Hornets. And besides CF-188 look a lot better the (roundel)F/A-18.
but those are superior in offensive use
has there been a second blog?
The USN still retained the capability on a handful of EMD airframes to provide technical support, but it in no way was standard (outside the baseline performance provided to an emergency mount due to retaining backwards compatibility with the various Sidewinder mounting rails), but is possible. On top of the fact that both the AIM-132 & AIM-2000 are “Type Classified”.
Also Later RAAF Hornets swap to using later blocks of the AIM-9X, so its only really the mid-life configurations that would be slightly different in an A2A role, and I’m not expecting to be able to ever really have access to the entire lineup of A2G ordnance available to USN / USMC hornets.
Doesn’t matter how far it got. They never used it in service, nor would it fill some extremely desperate hole in the TT. Britain, under no circumstances, should get the F-117. US already suffers enough from their vehicles being copy pasted into different trees. There is no reason to make that worse.
I still believe that’s the case, since Japan still need things anyway, but if there are other alternatives that are “less destructive” then the options are there for it. China doesn’t need Singapore and on a gameplay perspective they wouldn’t benefit nearly as much as just having their own stuff be better.
And my narratives has mostly still not been political, it is still factual that Singapore has no links with China militarily, while Japan and South Korea might not, they share similar strategies when it comes to defending against their neighbours and also uses similar equipment.
how do they suffer from something that takes literally absolutely nothing from them?
Now, I think I can say we’re at least on the same side if not in 100% agreement for this Singaporean sub branch situation, and I can appreciate that the US took the leading role in WWII as a whole, but war against Japan was an existential war to the ROC and inflicted long-term change upon balance of power in China for a variety of reasons, and an argument can be made that it means more to China (I do NOT mean contemporary politics) than it does to the US.
'Just shedding some more light on a very-minor issue I wish to take.
Any top tier AA, especially the Pantsir would like to disagree with you
It could make a unique event vehicle for Britain way into the future, but its overall a downgrade over the Jaguar Gr1A, so probably not even worth it outside of the fun of it and maybe adding a guided weapon carrier at a slightly lower BR, though I doubt it would be anywhere below maybe 9.7-10.0, if even that low in GRB.
But there are too many event vehicles id rather see added and considering our last 2 were bombers (Buc S1 and Jag IS) Id rather see a fighter added. If we are looking at paper vehicles then Id take this:
BAE P.1216
yesterdays devblog was uploaded at 14:40 UTC. Aka 29 mins
we already had one today, so I’m asking if there has been another one
y’all have been really worked up here that’s why im asking
if its gonna be like yesterday, as said before - 28 mins
Gaijin trying to make money for Japan
Agreed, Germany urgently need new top tier arh slinger. F4F ICE albeit has the weaponry but it’s still lacking in maneuverability and acceleration department. The new arh meta greatly demand those two sectors to be fulfilled which F4 ICE lacking. Swiss f-18 is a good addition as a stop gap while waiting for the arrival of Ef typhoon. Still better than nothing
