Fair enough
Which was also already denied
No I meant someone else brought up the unofficial lease F/A-18 stuff
Not all
i said someone, not you
which ill say again unless we get a canadian CF18 or aussie F/A-18 britain will once again be stuck with a sub par aircraft for its top br since you know we dont even have a 12.0 jet never mind a 12.3
Ok fair enough :)
Forgives as well recently I’ve just been bombarded with hate mail.

:P
We have a few options for maybe equal and we have a few native options, but they’d be underdogs at best.
I know there was the demonstrator version of the Eurofighter but it also mounted no radar or weapons, besides that I haven’t seen any domestic aircraft that could even be considered top tier material.
*Modified. Canada never built any just modified twice(three dampened on how you want to classify it) in their life span. You are most likely thinking of older aircraft.

oh my bad
You’ll have to wait for the Eurofighter if all you care about is a british meta aircraft.
Until then the closest to getting something meta would be the canadian and australian Hornets or the south african Gripens.
There are three british built planes that are top tier material in an AMRAAM environment though, but they would still be niche. Those would be the Hawk 200, the Sea Harrier FA.2 and the Tornado F.3 CSP.
No falt to you. Almost every aircraft used by the RCAF before the CF18/188 was built in Canada so I can see why you thought that.
I know Australia built there own super hornets or at least had plants to make parts for them I just assumed canada was similar
I love the battle of Britain scheme, britain painted a eurofighter in the scheme for its anniversary

yeah which sucks but I knew that going into the tech tree, still feels like being shafted with how long it took them to add the tornados tho
Another RAF camo one hehehe
From my not-so-great research. We got by due to Canadian factories already building most of the parts for the F-18 Hornet. Tho I might be wrong on that so don’t quote me.
