Major Update "Seek & Destroy" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

I doubt the Hawk would be any better than the AJS37.

RAF one, probably would be better. Finland, I dont think so. Would be more akin to Alpha jet I think. Should still be fun though

Eh actually the BEA hawk could do CAS, sure its slower but its loadout is much better then the AJ37

Underwhelming is a statement lmao

Would it be better than the AJS37s, though?

BAE Hawk 200

Hm, 3 3km missiles at 10.7 so usenit at 11.0 with 1 tank at that br or the vehicle with Aim 9L internal guns and agm 65D…hmmmmm yeah ill take the hawk pls

Uh, question…

Is it normal that AIM-120s are particularly… teammate-hungry?

Like as far as fully changing course and do a 90º just to go after a teammate that is 7km away from the enemy you are locked in.

So far, I have had 5 accidental teamkills on the dev server… which is more teamkills that I have had on the live server in 2023 and 2024 so far combined lol

Britain will probably be the only nation to get it

Finland doesn’t use the Hawk 200.

I’ve been TKed by R-77s twice. I think when they are in the active phase htey’ll basically go for anything close

As I said. RAF Hawk would be better than the AJS37s. But Finland’s would probably be akin to the Alpha jet

Holy… I hope they really aren’t like this on live.

The fact that I got 5 teamkills out of 12 launches is just not… right, xD

Specially when it’s not like the teammates were even close to the enemies, or between the enemies and me, no: the teammates were as far as off-screen for me. The missile just took whole full 90º turns to go after them instead of the enemy planes, even with a direct active lock on them.

It also loves chaff.

Tbf, gaijin has basically doomed any unique or any vehicle from filling the missing sections of swedens air tree by making norway and Denmark premium. Not to mention after the viggen and draken nerf i expext them to drop in br and leave amd even bigger gap. Especially the draken that thing is a starfighter but without the engine or speed lmao

We can hope. I can see it being more like 3 months. Though I’ve yet to get a TK

Don’t forget that Finland, the nation with a sub tree, is also relegated to being premium.

Draken BR drop might be good though, kinda over BRed with no CMs

Plus the J35XS.

Yeah no sorry but if you’d played the XS on the server youd see how bad it is. Though youve probably never played them so no real way to compare. Hell they cant even cobra lol
