I mean, they did it when they had F-16s, and Israel uses F-16s, yet gave them F/A-18s

soo…

Does it feature upgraded avionics, any of the both?
Like it has somewhat of a flight model, but I would rather play the J-8F which trades 2 ARH for digital RWR and HMD, with roughly the same gameplay flow.

I might expect Air EC map 256 km x 256 km or 300 km x 300 km for Air RB & SB mode, another 3rd gen & 4th gen infrared missile. and 3rd gen targeting pod for USA, Japan & Germany aircraft rank 8

I think the color combination red, black, white is not necessarily the best choice for a BRD vehicle, is it?

Its the same as the JA37D but with an english cockpit that gaijin didnt model properly or even make in english. The D model is missing its HMD and so for now its a worse KWS, aim 9L, 1 channel at a time and thats it.

Also sub par RWR

Same with the Mig-29G… we still wait for the Englisch cockpit…

Especially the english HUD

Yeah they have AJS only. Still cool but not exactly what I’d be looking for in DCS

just shows what really happened

gotta dance on the rubble of that wall

Still waiting for the gripen to have Krig instead of krieg

Still waiting for this:

Or just unnecessary BR changes
(Skink going from 4.7 to 5.0 and then to 5.3 for no reason apart from "I can’t pen the SPAA as a Plane :( "

Yeah, i hate when reports get accepted and are left un fixed for months, even stuff like bugs that just nerf tanks get left without being fixed

there are actually changes in the cockpit tho and I got pinned from all sides by players, devs and mods after saying it’s the wrong cockpit because this is apparently the correct cockpit

Yea,No… its still missing the English HUD and also some other changes

sigh I’ll check the manual rq

Subpar RWR is what I consider its biggest weakness, lack of HMD less so, there are also AV-8Bs who are subsonic with no DL. But on the other hand the RWR is really a big problem since it is more than likely to either face said AV-8Bs or KWS/J-8F in higher altitudes.

Which one do you have?
