None have gotten a GE skin yet. Not one.

Heck we got a skin for the FRS1 in that Argentina event that was (nearly) identical to the one it already had instead of giving it to the FRS1e which it would have actually been different

I am not sure if it was posted but Mirage 2000D RMV and the new midnado are getting IIR versions of the PGM bomb

Now if only the RMV got MICA IR like it ought.

Yep it was. Gunna be a good change. Was insane they were planning TV sight at top tier when everyone else has amazing IR+IOG combos that are rather OP

PGMs are also finally getting their long missing IOG

Hello there! Would you know the answer to this question?

Since I always bombard you with complex technical matters, this time it’s a more lighthearted topic, hahah:

No liveries for the best options in the tree, but liveries for some of the worst.

And every single event, they are always skins for the F-16, F-15, Su-27 or Mig-29. Would be nice to see events add skins for other aircraft for a change.

Drives me nuts the FRS1e still has a peacetime camo

There are 2 required skins. If they are missed. There will be a riot

But the vast majority of British additions over the last 2-3 years have. So unlike your statement that it’s “rare” for them to come with one, it’s actually rarer as you can see by your own list for them not too come with one than without.

A riot that they’ll postpone with “We’ll consider reworking it”

And then 3 months later there’s still nothing heard about it.

It’s for the anniversary currently.

F-16C has 4 GE skins, and 3 marketplace skins

A single US aircraft has more skins than all 3 of Britains 13.0+ aircraft combined

Hey Smin, have the devs already made a decision on which hull armour package the 2A5NL and 2A6NL will get?

Hi Smin, any updates on the A-7E’s weaponry?
We had an RWR replaced and extra bombs added but can the plane get its AIM-9Ls and AGM-65F/G (x2).
It’s really bad at the BR it’s at and it would be nice to see some more weapons be added to it. You know, to keep the bird alive in the current MM.
Cheers

We seem to be moving the goalposts here from your original claim.

Yes indeed, some highly popular and hugely famous aircraft can indeed receive more.

However your original claim that Britian hardly ever gets skins is very much incorrect. It’s a much smaller minority of aircraft that don’t have a second one to those that have extras.
