Damn, it’s probably going to drop when I’m at work knowing my luck if that’s the case :/
I can still hope for today though!
What’s your timezone?
an extra 10mm of pen for a top tier round
“60-80km”
COUGH With a half decent radar to guide it into IR range
Everyone always forgets the AAM-5 exists.

I don’t see the problem with modern AESA radar from the Rafale if not already the good -5F ?
And PL-10.

tbh I forget Japan exists (this is a joke)
oh none of the planes that get it will struggle to guide it. Just pointing out that this thing is NOT locking an IR signature from 80 km for those that think it might (yes some people do think that)
Even being able to lock from a quarter of that would be great.
It is deeply frustrating that last year, we were told
“No you cannot have the Typhoon, you’ve got wait till the F-15C MSIP II, its about equal in terms of balance”
Now its
“no you’ve got to wait for the super-hornet”
The prospect that Italy, Britain and Germany are going to get C&P F-18s instead of the Typhoon this Deemeber because “Typhoon too good” even though, it would only be 14.0 at most. Is just frustrating.
I couldnt be bothered to list them all. I missed off more than just Japan
Considering how little flight performance matters at top tier as long as it’s good enough to get you into a decent position, the one and only thing the Typhoon would have over other jets, its flight performance, wouldn’t even make a massive difference.
That things gonna be filth man I cant wait, hopefully they buff the AAM-3 to its assumed 50g pull similar to the Python 4
UK, But I work nightshift so disappear from 2200. And I’m probably going to be asleep 1400-2030
My guess is that the December version will be a carrier-based version, with most countries getting the F-18 and Russia and China getting the SU-33UB and J-15
Depend of the tranche i guess.
Like the full first Rafale variant can be 12.3 right now, but the last modern one could need 15.0 ? xD
Yep, and considering its got 320 BOL and 32 Large calibre flares. Its gunna suck to defend against any IR or BVR missile in.
The teasers sometimes release a within a few hours of that, so you may just catch it.
