Sadly more too it than that. British variants diverge from the standard IDS.

That doesn’t explain where our own improved CAS options are, like HOSBO
Or the twin PARS 3 launchers for the outer Tiger pylons, which was requested years ago.

What people forget is this is the smaller October/November update, before the big end of year one. Its never going to be massively unique content-wise.
I see no AASMs, no GBU-50, and no MICA IRs. Is it even able to use the MICA EM?

Probably because it wasn’t intended to be an answer to a different question? I was just clarifying IDS = / = GR.1.
Naturally that has nothing to do with PARS or a glide bomb.
Feel free to make a report for any missing weaponary if it’s for the version we have in game. However this is not the place.

There’s no way they’d be adding MICA IR’s yet.
It has the old A2G radar just improved so MICA-EM shouldnt be available at all, with only 2 outer mounted MICA-IR being possible.
The differences are not substantial. The GR1 has the LRMTS (Laser Range finder and Marked Target Seeker) fitted under the nose which has nothing to do with weapons guidance and all Tornados use their own domestic radar warners. And probably some different IFF equipment. Nothing that would affect their ability to use different weapons.
OK, good new french Multirole strike aircraft
Placeholder equipment MICA EM Air-to-Air Missile and Damocles targeting pod
Sniper ATP-SE and Litening 5 targeting pod equivalent ?
Dear god please not another 5"/38 slinger

Also no GBU-16 (only -12), no GBU-48, no GBU-22, and no ASPTT.
Hello @Smin1080p_WT
Sorry for the ping but is the M2K’s RMV weaponry set to evolve, or is it what we should expect on the live server ?
Yes
I nearly forgot, no external wing-mounted fuel tanks.
GR.1 is not GR.4. PGM was tested on Tornado GR.1. Not on IDS. Not on GR.4. Why GR.4 has PGM?
@Smin1080p_WT are the LJDAMs on the Tornado ASSTA 1 being added for the time being till we have an ASSTA 3/ 3.1?
Because lets call it, ASSTA1 werent the best at using then or is it an balancing decision
Also, will we get the Laser for the LJDAM or just GPS guidence?
