One thing I want to know is why the Viggen Di has a cockpit in Swedish and in metric units on devserver, when the only thing that sets Di apart from the D version is that the cockpit in Di is in english and in imperial units. That i in Di stands for “international”.
Are they really going to charge 70EUR or more for a plane and not even bother doing the bare minimum after pressing CTRL C + CTRL V? I made more effort today going to the toilet in the morning, where is my 70EUR? If Gaijin wants to keep the cockpit in Swedish/metric, that´s fine. But then change the name to JA37D and give it a different skin.
My guess is they had no photos of Di cockpit so they modelled it after regular D or they wanted to kill both birds with one stone and make a unified cockpit that would more or less fit both JA37D and Di.
I am pretty sure that if they gave 200SEK to some Björn War Thunder enthusiast, he would happily go into the Swedish museum and snap a few pics of the cockpit. I mean charging 70EUR for this just doesn´t feel right.
With all seriousness we are finally getting proper D model cockpit in game and I’m happy as a kid that my favorite aircraft is also coming to the game. I couldnt care less about having or not having the cockpit in English at this point when there are way more important features that are missing or need adjustments.
I’m just happy its not another J35XS treatment when it got no AIM-4, completely wrong cockpit and no techtree equivalent.
We should focus on pushing for radar and HUD changes instead of focusing on something of such low value as cockpit language. Posting these reports below just in case:
Yeah the biggest issue with cockpits for me personally is the lack of radar symbology on HUDs. There’s loads of aircraft that should have it but they just don’t and all the reports on it just go completely ignored.
The tech tree JA 37Di is cool, but the same copy pasted vehicle premium will not solve the already existing issue with rank VI and VII Swedish premiums: They are not even mid and the solution should not be paying 5$ more
Sweden needs more vehicles in sub top tier brackets. Finnish Hawk, F-35 (Draken) and J35J (with flares) or J35O for example. Hawk would fit perfectly after Saab 105G, F-35 after A32A and J35J foldered with J35D.
