Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

well it would only have 6 hardpoints with r-77’s and mabye the astra which is an indigenous bvr missile kinda like a modern r27 as it has a ir version but also fox 3

Godvana just hates the UK and anglosphere dominions.

well the indians use the su-30 as well with a mix of russian, western and indigenous wepons

Don’t make me giddy : P lol

well they also use the Rafale so rafale in the uk tree

I know just that the F/A-18 would be much more cheaper to C&P over hence why I’m being realistic.
Plus there no Indian tech tree vehicles yet as they are filling that premium Squad and event space.

Legacy Hornets could reasonably go to UK (through Canada or Australia) , Sweden (through Finland), Germany (through Switzerland) and Italy (through Spain) in addition to the US.

With that much availability, it’s really more of a question of how to balance them against Soviet equivalents rather than the Gripen.

It’s from a leak

Ok thx, that would be sweet if added

Let’s put the hopioids aside , I don’t think there is any reason for Britain getting a hornet
It’s gonna be fgr.4 this update.

Simple sweet bitterness

what FGR4? do you mean the tornado GR4? which is nowhere near an F18

also its only GR because its only ground and recognisance not a fighter

It’s possible they can, but just unlikely given the Gripen was added to fulfil the same gap, and that Britain has sub-trees to draw on.

Show me an Indian tech tree vehicles ?

I wasn’t comparing the 2 , it’s just my guess that GR.4 might come not the f-18

idk we also got the F111C i can see an CF188, there would also be no harm in it, the US could still pull from the aussies if they need a F18 premium or event plane

How about instead of asking if we should get the hornet or not (we should, but im not too bothered by when as more by what as i think we should get the auzy hornet with asraams). Im more interested in the bae hawk.
