Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Indeed it is

It supposedly couldnt carry any A2G munitions, not even dumb bombs.

The GR1 IS an IDS, it’s just the British designation for it. Just like they call the Eurofighter the Typhoon.

There’s nothing different about the British and German IDS that would make it unable to use the PGM, never mind the fact that the British IDS never even used the PGM, it was just fit test.

So what is actually going to be done about the lack of German CAS? Before you say ‘Unfortunately Germany doesn’t have any suitable aircraft’ as it happens, we do have a suitable aircraft. The Tornado.

[Godvana]

Another completely pointless addition

[Bonrath]

ye it was fully air to air ye

[LuaJa]

Germany’s greatly requested CAS plane (lol)

@Smin1080p_WT can u tell us there’s only GBU-49 on Mirage 2000D RMV?No other new A2G weapon?(not include PGM)

I wasnt talking about ARH deployment but purely SARH. Stronger lock means stronger signal and stronger signal means stronger return waves. That translates to smaller notch window aswell as more accurate and visible “painting” of the target which is essential for SARH missiles.

So no, despite AIM-7 limitations F-2A would’ve been way stronger than any of its competition of the time and SARH missiles fired from it would’ve been way harder to defeat. Thats in a sense of pre-ARH addition

Is it just me or is all the aircraft on the dev server really reflective?

quite a few differences. And quite major ones considering the systems

@Smin1080p_WT can you say why the hell we get now an Premium Su-22M4 (WTD61)?
Like, is this to get some money and then boost the Development of an new TT Tornado for Germany or what is this?
Does it may get stuff which is currently notbon dev?

Edit:
When Premium
Mig-29G (WTD61)
F-4F ICE (WTD61)
…

[Godvana]

Nothing that would affect its ability to guide a PGM. that thing highlighted in red is a laser rangfinder I believe.

[Godvana]

MiG-21 WTD61

MiG-23 WTD61

[Dontkev]

My bad, we have allready an WTD61 Phantom

[warhead_beast]

And PGM was manufactured by who?

[Godvana]

MBDA

complete sentence

[LuaJa]

The German Tornado ASSTA1 has received these on the latest dev server

[Shay]

Won’t make any real difference.

[warhead_beast]

So the CV90 is british now?

[Dontkev]
