In regards to the Danish Saab 35 Draken, I think you might be a bit confused about them. There are the 3 different variants, the F-35 (Fighter), RF-35 (Recon Fighter) & TF-35 (Trainer Fighter). At the same time, all 3 of them went through an upgrade called WDNS (Weapon Delivery and Navigation System).
What have happened, is I think you might have confused the RF-35 for a F-35 post WDNS, since one of the things that was part of the WDNS upgrade, was a new nose cone that looks very similar to the nose cone that was found on the original RF-35.
At the same time, I would probably say that the best way to implement the Danish Drakens, would be as follows:
F-35 Draken - Regular tech tree
F-35 Draken WDNS - Regular tech tree
TF-35 Draken - Premium
RF-35 Draken - Event
The aircraft should have the same capabilities in regards to the suspended armaments they could carry, but compared to the F-35, the TF-35 only had 1x 30mm ADEN, and the RF-35 could not carry the AGM-12 Bullpup. It would probably also be possible to add the TF-35 WDNS, and RF-35 WDNS, however it would be alot to have 6 Draken in one tech tree.
Also some stuff in regards to other Danish aircraft:
The T-6 Texan, is an unarmed trainer.
The Fairey Firefly, it is an unarmed target tug.
The PBY-6A Catalina is unarmed, and was mainly used for ice-reconnaissance at Greenland, patient transport, aerial photography and Search and Rescue.
The B-17, was a post war transport conversion, and used as a transport plane.
The Gloster Meteors, would make more sense if they were after each other in the tech tree. At the same time, the NF 11, should probably be BR 7.7, since the NF.13 is ingame in Isreal tech tree with a BR of 7.7. The NF.13 is an tropicalised version of the NF.11.
The F-84, Denmark more specifically used both the F-84E & F-84G variants.
The F-86 (Rank VI, BR 8.7) should probably removed, since from what i know, the only F-86 Denmark operated was the F-86D, which only had the 24x FFAR, and 2x AIM-9B
Denmark operated both the American F-104G and the Canadian licensed version of it called the CF-104.
There is also a couple of aircraft you can add:
Lockheed TF-100F, It is a trainer of the F-100F Super Sabre, the main difference is that it only have 2x 20mm cannons instead of 4x on the regular F-100F
RF-84F, a reconnaissance version of the F-84F. It was armed with 4x 12.7mm, but from what i know, it couldn’t carry any suspended armaments.
Last thing, is in regards to the Danish F-16A & B. It is confusing with them to say the least.
Initially, Denmark ordered 46 F-16A, and 12 F-16B, they were delivered as F-16A & F-16B built as Block 1 (& block 5 & 10?). These 58 F-16, were later on upgraded to the F-16A/B Block 10 standard.
Later on, Denmark ordered another batch of 12 F-16 Block 15 (8x F-16A & 4x F-16B).
I found the following table, in regards to how many of each block of F-16A & F-16B Denmark got:
At some point later in time, the remaining fleet of 61 F-16 (A & B) were all upgraded in the MLU program, which got the name Block 20 MLU. This meant that the entire fleet consisted of F-16AM Block 20 MLU & F-16BM Block 20 MLU.
Thanks a lot! My sources for Danish aircrafts are not the best. Planes such as the texan, was listed with armament in several sites so i tought it was an armed trainer xd
Recently an P-8 Poseidon was equipped a model of the Kongsberg Joint Strike Missile to showcase a possible future capacity, and from what i’ve read this is highly likely. This could be a great plane for ground battles, and depending on other potential upgrades, air battles
While I support NDI representation in the game due to possible unique options, I don’t think they can make a solid standalone tt themselves, not (only) due to c&p, but also due to a rather limited options for future.
I know this suggestion is specifically for standalone tt, yet I think NDI may actually help Swedish tt a lot, after all we start getting more and more Norwegian and Danish tech within Swedish tt, and [Swedish] air side is… meh mostly, and I’d also like them attackers (I am happy to see Norwegian Mosquitos, as I quite enjoyed them as both attackers for GRB and heavy interceptors in ARB)
This is an older post and i believe he has one which is a 5th air line of Denmark and Norway for sweden. Currently Denmark is the only other nation which is in game to be a confirmed subtree to anyone.
Well, I’ve only found the Norwegian sub-tree air proposal, however sans Denmark and Iceland. I tried to look up the thing via previously suggested ideas, yet none concerned the three at once.
No one has said it can’t exist, from what i see it is not directly a subtree “officially”, and if it is, there is still a chance they can move the vehicles over in a new tree like it has been done before with a cpuple nations like italy/china if I remember correctly
Also the Italian vehicles on Germany are different same with China, they were one offs and weren’t confirmed subnations, if they were confirmed subnations then thwy never would’ve gotten a tree to themselves
yes, i hope the subtrees will receive some of the unique vehicles, and that there will be added some more evenly. I feel subtrees might get much less “love” than the vehicles of techtrees
