If Canada gose duel fleet, taking SAAB’s Gripen deal would likly lock the armament in for it.

Yeah, I wouldnt be surprised either. either that or Meteors for their F-18s :D

Why are you two even comparing ATGMs to freefall bombs?

Brimstones replaced BL-755 in RAF service.

Where the US developed more advanced CBUs instead

Sure, that doesn’t turn Brimstones into bombs though, does it?

I feel obligated to post this now 😭😭

Resume

The swedes constantly be judging us about our language

He asked if the UK ever developed a CBU where each bomblet had a seeker like CBU-97.

The answer is no, because instead they went in the direction of the Brimstone and stopped using CBUs like most of the world

eh not really, we used mavericks a lot too, we just had the budget to keep developing CBU’s alongside missiles

If Canada is switching away from the pure F-35 fleet to the (more ideal fleet if you ask me) high-low, I’d expect the Hornets to be fast-tracked into retirement. (tho at this point, 90% sure we would have/are having to make a plan to keep the Hornets in service even longer with everything going wrong with the F-35. Or if it wasn’t for other issues, basically copying Aussie equipment layout with F-35s and Super Hornets that would have happened.)

What are you guys going with anyways?

i agree it looks cool, just a shame it blows ingame

I mean, it’s almost like missiles are much safer to use than freefall bombs

Why go for a bombing run if you can just lob some missiles from a low altitude
