oh its indeed the Bangladesh variant … makes me wonder, why’d they add this before Durjoy or the base VT-5 or even the ZTQ-15.

Yeah… At least they are being somewhat unsuccesful in this case:

More vehicles are coming or thats it?
Once block 4 come, it’s a better air superiority and multirole than a typhoon
We know that a British aircraft is coming, suspected to be a premium Harrier T-10. But I dont know about any others yet.
USS Colarado maybe?
OK thanks
That’s still better than what they had before:
Anyways, really want this to get added (as an event) before the TT RoC M1A2T.
Is the gun still 100mm or did it get 105mm?

And expensive af to operate, that’s also a factor to consider (Are we even buying Block 4?). My guess is that they’ll act as mini awacs sending datalink targets to Eurofighters behind them, tho i guess the EF EK could do that as well if their jammers are good enough to protect them
You forgot IRIS-T :P At least they can’t deny that one being integrated
Yep. :D
Ayy man like you’ve been replying to everyone else but ignoring a major problem
Is this going to get fixed or not?
Like I can’t do anything to a battleship in a 6.0 cruiser before he kills me in 1-2 salvos.
not this one tho,

The VT5 with HERA exists as an independent model, there is potentially a second variant, or the ZTQ15.
I know Britain is buying Block 4s, it should serve to drastically increase our force projection power, the F-35 would likely be the best AEQ&C we can field, seeing as our current systems are helicopter based with altitude limiting their effective range
BTW datamine

I didn’t think it had been integrated, or is it ongoing, tbh I just assumed they would use AIM-9s?
Basically the AV-8B NA for Britain, but a two seater
They are 100 percent gonna use the fact that it was a US marine F35B that flew the first tests as a reason on why they should receive the meteor.
