I just got there but let me get this straight. Are you guys actually going crazy over some DOA subsonic bomber with 2 guided bombs and no defensive measures; fatter 2 seater F-15C with laser guided bombs and 6 AGM-65D; and fatter 2 seater Flanker with couple already existing missiles and no thermal TGP?

And now theres even an argument being brought about F-16AJ for some reason? Bruh…

I just hope Israel gets its own F-15I in the same patch while maybe Germany gets some late IDS 3.1 with MAWS JDAM and other small changes.

Being squadron is literally the only way for this vehicle to be implemented outside of event. Also theres M901 which almost nobody uses because of how bad it is.

I get the whole thing of britain having already better CAS jets then the Night Hawk but considering britain wont have any kind of stealth jet until the F35 that is a capability hole that nothing any common wealth or sub tree nation can fill

su34 would be a big deal because it combines figher performance with agms only available on subsonic attack aircraft

Squadron vehicles can also be wildcards. Supplementary vehicles that would not be added to the tree normally and are not really suitable for events in some cases.

Its another reason why we have squadron vehicles and will continue to expand on them over time.

Just search for radar bands in net and look that X-band isn’t single frequency but a RANGE of frequencies, is it so hard to understand???

Practically every nation didn’t / doesn’t use anything purely “stealth” until they got / are getting F-35s IRL. So this is not a British problem at all or a problem really whatsoever for the British tree.

“Fighter performance” brother this thing is a bus unless you run it clean. Also what will you do with these AGMs without thermal targeting pod Su-25 offers?

It would be a free kill for anyone higher than about 10.0. and even then…

Though the biggest issue is lack of decent targets for them

ir kh38 have inbuilt thermals, and sure it wont dogfight a gripen but do you think a su25 would fare any better
not to mention it can also carry actual missiles like r27

Heretical comment about one of the most iconic aircraft in aviation history.

Also two of the most currently iconic Strike aircraft. It’s like you’re insinuating that not-meta becomes automatically bad?

They cope every update in these RR topics. This one has reached new levels though ))

Is there any plan to complement the AA line for Japan, even with the introduction of Thailand, there will still be a lack of a competitive AA in the highest tier?

tan sam is good but very limited since it uses IR missiles

We are always looking out for possible new options to provide better balance where we can if a suitable balanced vehicle exists and introducing it to our plans. Suggestion topics are always welcome too.

Right now however we don’t have anything specific to speak of in this area.
