They are only 500lb?
For some reason I thought they were more like 1000lb or 2000lb bombs. No idea why I thought that
If it doesnt get SARH, then why not make the other version only carry 9Gs (maybe sraam) and be a lower BR so the 2 planes are not stepping on each others toes so to speak?
Also, I thought we had 11.0/3s with skyflash/sparrow E anyway tbh lol which are supersonic. So given its going to be what. 10.7 anyway I dont really see how it would be massively higher in BR with those.
yep ))
same size as LJDAMs just cooler because Fire and forget :)

If its 9Ls only, then the ZH200 should have its 9Ls swapped out with rear-aspects (Aim-9G or SRAAMs) with a BR drop and the RDA placed at 10.7/11.0.
Though I dont see why a pair of Skyflash DFs would increase its BR beyond 11.0, maybe 11.3. Being a Subsonic Viggen C
Tbf Viggen C also isn’t a good platform lol, its one of the worst deltas in game after the FM changes and still being denied its bug reports to fix its weight and such.
It should probably be 11.3 with skyflash and 9L imo, only being .3 higher than some other jets is quite unfair and theres plenty if 10.p without CM or RWR it would bully, at 11.3 it would stoll have loadout advantage
Which goes to show that a hawk 200 likely wouldnt need to be excessively high in BR with a couple skyflash missiles ^^
Can it load skyflash and 9L at the same time?
yes, though may not have a gun at all internally. Also has 60 CMs vs 48 LCMs and maybe a weaker radar. I think there is just enough disadvnatages for the Hawk 200 RDA to consider 11.0.
Let alone the average top speed of Mach 0.7-0.8
Im more worried about the compression of 10.0 aircraft needing to deal with it. If we had less compression i agree either same BR as the Viggen or .3 lower would be fine
Thats fair, though with any luck, Gaijin might finally realise they need to finish decompressing the lower 2/3rds of the air the trees
Though the aircraft that probably would struggle the most is the J35XS with no RWR at 10.3.
Doubt it, we have the J7D, F5’s ect ect and other prem trouble makers bullying that BR to death. Its unfortunate since its my favorite area for jets but we’ll just have to see.
J35D much at 10.0 with no CM’s or RWR lol and its flight performance is worse than a Mirage 3C at the same BR, unfortunately id say the J35D is unplayable in the current air matchmaker, think Defyn and some other Youtubers have also talked about it.
At least its not 10.7 but it definitely needs to probably see some decomp or drop in BR
Is the 30mm gunpod for the Hawk 200’s still on its way?
It was mentioned to be getting it in the devblog but then in the dev stream they weren’t sure if it would be coming IIRC.
Let alone 25mm ADEN internals.
Would be better if they actually fixed the lofting profile of PARS and Spikes instead of giving it a useless feature 🙄
Showing work on empty place XD
a hawk with no guns and no radar missiles… sounds like torture
How much ammo is in the 30mm is it the same across all Hawks or is it different
Also its been about a year since the last swedish aircraft, missed opportunity for swedish night fighter Mossie, also where 4000lb Mossie?

they should both get a 30mm gunpod i think
