buddy the first ever RCH155 was realy just delivered to ukraine, by the point its added germany gonna have them themself either way, as of right now UK RCH155 exist as much as the german one
Germany could get it either way on the basis of an export, its not one designed for UK like the KF41 was for hungary, totaly different situations
I think it’s more that, 8 AMRAAMs plus a full A2G loadout was never really considered an important benchmark.
The Typhoon can do 4 AMRAAM/Meteor plus 2 ASRAAM/IRIS T, and carry a full A2G loadout, and it does it while remaining much more agile than the F-15EX does
6 missiles + ~12,000lbs of strike capability was, I think, considered plenty
and the best in class for like 15 years
someone say italian A-10?
purchased?? he he , nah we force fed them to japan XD
Spoiler
joking btw
Trial vehicles and gaijins reasoning for them is always a changing matter. If we go buy purchased it opens up even more cans of worms which again follows under trial, with that logic we get way more vehicles that dont need to be added just like the T80 U, Heavy tank 6 ect ect its a never ending rabbit hole
Now that would be epic xD
Did Italy test them ?
Iirc just a pilot exchange
italian exhange pilots are the first and only ones i think to ever fly A-10s
Pretty sure someone posted a link about them testing them a few months back
Advanced eagle from 2013, so more like 10 years. F-15E could do 4 amraams and full 20,000lb a2g when eurofighter was made though
And wouldn’t an advanced eagle be less affected by a2g loads than a eurofighter. It was made to handle such large amounts of extra weight
Who thinks Part 4 by next week?
who am I kidding? we’ll be half way through Part 4 after the trailer/teaser comes out
Back then, I thought Montana had been laid down- turns out it wasn’t, sadly xD
That being said; if that’s the only reason why you call the whole excel ‘terrible’… :')
Probably, trailer always adds a few thousand comments
Well if Italy tested then then I’m sure A-10 would be a good we forgive you package if it was added as a squadron vehicle : D
the UK has a official adopted the RCH155, none have been delivered yet, where as Germany hasn’t decided yet and might not go with it, at which point it would very much be like the KF41
imagine it gets to part 4 the second after the trailer drops XD
Or we give them the Saab A-38, it was a joint vehicle project before Italy dropped to work with Brazil.
tell me what the ukrainian RCH155 is then.
The RCH155 isnt specialised for UK. Which already exists and was delivered
I mean,
me raging about you thinking Lion could in amy way stand up to a Yamato
