So no HOBOS… Err, I mean HOSBO too? :P
Does it mean we also get finally an fire and forget Brimstone?
Not even an 100% real one, just an Brimstone with an Maverick seeker

You’ve been probably been asked this already (If you have I apologise, call me Goldfish-M cause I be forgetting), but anything you’re excited for this update?
Given both the ER, the original question asking about the Eurofighter, and other aircraft in the update getting ASHMs, I’d more guess at Marte ER, an Italian antishipping missile
Spice 250s glorious 2G maximum overload, very easy to aim missile.
(This is literally as far offboresight as they can hit as currently tuned)
i derby er for spyder :o?
I am a simple man. So the new Fokker and L-39ZA make me happy.
But the C-360, Mirage IIIS and Hunter F.58 also quite a lot too.
Swiss Hunters in general are some of the best looking imo.

Its a shame. It (Fokker D.XXI) was going to be at an airshow near me this weekend. But at least it got substituted with a Boomerang and Yak-3.

Are the Eurofighters getting any new ground ordinance this update? You’ve already denied HOPE, but what about Brimstone 2/3 or Spear 3 (or any of the many GBUs still missing)?
out of curiosity are there any plans to see the Centurion 1 with the coaxial 20mm polsten?

British and Italian EFTs could maybe get some new CAS weapons for the time being, since Germany is the only nation getting a meaningfull new spaa this update.
Although I’m not a fan of improving CAS further when the majority of the new SPAA meant to counter CAS are mediocre-mid at best.
Don’t judge it on its current placeholder copy-paste PGM stats.
I’m sure they’ll be changed by release. Same goes for all three SPICEs.

I highly doubt it, the EFTs seem to have just been left to kinda rot when it comes to CAS, HOSBO was already denied, brimstone 2s pretty sure were denined and I doubt they would give us SPEAR 3 and those are the only things that would improve the CAS
Is there anything else coming too? It’s been quite fun this morning hearing that these are coming, just hoping there’s some more to come. Like maybe LJDAM for the aircraft it’s missing from?
NGL speaking of getting stuff like JDAM-ERs/SPICEs, i hope we get the GCS-1’s lesser known big brother, the XGCS-2 (2000lb GNSS glide bomb conversion)

Guys, I heard an interesting rumor that the role of a fighter in GB will be determined by the mount it carries. That is, if you only carry air-to-air missiles, it will be an orange fighter, while if you carry ground weapons, it will be counted as an attack aircraft marked in green. Even if this is just a rumor, I think it would be an interesting change
