Actually, funny thing you reminded me of: Falcons had a better P/K (probability of kill) than the AIM-9E. This was because the 9E was genuine hot garbage lol.
What do you mean? The ADATS is obviously enough for Britain.
Luckily India didn’t operate those
Yeah lol. The 9E had very little improvement over the 9B and despite the attempt to make it more resistant to stuff like flares and background heat, they somehow made it 10x worse
Guess its time for another Sub-TT as Britian doesnt make anything domestically
yeah but either are garbage and AIM-4 Falcon doesnt have proximity fuse
yeah im not surprised
dare i say OP even
jokes aside, i was expecting a MICA VL for France and a Grifo for Italy, not that they would jump straight to SAMP/T
Still speculation of course, and it doesn’t mean the UK won’t get a CAMM
USAF try not to have the worst sidewinders challenge impossible
They’re not only going to completely ignore the Sky Sabre, but also the multiple South African options and choose a nation at random to be the third sub nation.
Also gotta wonder if they will fudge CMs onto the F-106 or not since while the F-106 didn’t have them the QF-106 did and they gave the F-5C in the US tree flares so…its not too far fetched imo
Average Philco-Ford product moment lol
The question is who?
What other nation did Britain colonise and end up hating us for it?
Hmm…
Honestly yeah, that’s what I was wondering too. Would be insanely nice
USAF honestly shoulda just got the Aim-9D that existed at the same time as the E
You’ll get a Chinese AA through Hong Kong, because why the hell not?
Gaijin: What the heck is an Umkhonto and how can a Cactus be a surface to air missile?
Agreed, but unfortunately inter-service rivalry made things worse.
Alongside the F-22 Super, F-55, and F-47, yes.
