it would be very funny to use them with the hmd
I mean the F14B will always see the top BR bracket pretty much so I would count it as top tier and it also is the end of the line in its respectful branch.
And the US only having the AIM, Ram II and the upcoming Canadian Skink I think Australia and Canada got way more to do with Britain then the US in game.
Which makes me believe is we are getting the F/A-18 then it could be the Canadian one.
As it’s a unique mod compared to the others and would follow the 111C.
true lol, if they are gonna shove it up at 13.0, that doesnt matter for ground RB might as well slap it at 13.7 and give it 2 really strong missiles.
i love that 25km is now consided short range
I would also like to add the Canadian one has got like 5 variants we could have so there no need for other commonwealth jet’s at that range.
the canadian hornet or the aussie hornet both would be unique so either would do tbh

I wouldnt expect to hit it anything at 25km with an IR missile anyway lol, but would be really strong with in 15km its basically just a better R27ET
Well we can only have one so yea lol
I view the AIM situation exactly like the Canadian Leopard 2 situation, if Gaijin had one of them in the British tree, then why not move the other one?
Gaijin’s excuse for the Ram II being in the US tree if I recall was due to “british ground not fully being a thing”, so take that however you will I guess lol.
But I cant be mad now since the Ram II is finally going to its proper home
But yeah, despite Smin saying that Australia and Canada go to whatever nation needs it, I see their only viable home(s) being Britain or a standalone/commonwealth tree.
And then India threw out all of that logic by adding Russian stuff, so who knows :p

Technically speaking there is, but it’s an old removed premium. So it never received the Canadian flag when they went around giving everything the correct flag.
The bug report for fixing the flag of Prendergast’s Spitfire.

Personally, Britain doesnt have any Canadian planes yet, but also being biased as a Canadian (who mains Germany so give me a break), the CF-18 just fits the most, especially with the skins omg.
Idk if Canada or Australia has upgrader their respective F-18s more than the other country has so i guess that could also be a factor?
Canada is still using CF-18s but we’re getting F-35s I think

well it will just allow you to fire from outside peoples just general looking around
also the people who make the missile say the range is in excess of 25 km so it should go quite far along that 25km
Oh damn, yeah I genuinely never would have known that.
I might pick it up then when it goes on sale again.
But yeah hopefully the flag situation is fixed.
Currently using the Wyvern as my Rank 4 premium but eh

ive heard it has an effective range of 40km, obviously that isnt the lock range I would assume the lock range is probably closer to that of 6 to 8km considering the lock range of things like the 9M is only 3km and the lock range of the R27ET is 4.8km assuming the thing has a better seeker then those older missiles I think 6 to 8km in all aspect is believable
I know the british mains are going to hate me, but the 2A4M and AIMs were correctly placed. Gaijin just screwed up by muddying the water with random stuff like the Bishma and Bison.

well it has lock on after launch but i have not idea how they would make that work in game
britian never gets features first so even if it was added, it wont have it modelled
