Ah cheers m8 :(
No way. It should not be higher than BR 10.0. In addition, that is where it is currently needed.
No Sparrows and no AIM-9Ls then
Intressting still doubt will be all to practical
Nope, it didn’t have PD and skyflashes from the start.
*It received them in 2021, when it was already two years old.(Update Direct Hit)

I have only shown the options, depending on the capabilities and homologation of this weapon system. That doesn’t mean you have to have everything for obvious balance reasons. Imagine a Super Tucano with Sidewinder…
That doesn’t mean the plane can’t be deployed.
It is simply a matter of looking for capabilities to cover needs in the TT.
It’s better than getting a Swiss operated British hunter in the same slot. And I insist again, we still have the Alpha Jet… Sometimes I don’t understand gaijin’s decisions. I would have preferred it to say "we added the Swiss hunter because we plan to add Swiss aircraft to the German TT in the future… The German air TT has been abandoned for years…
German air TT? Abandoned?
wat
“Abandon for years” m8 you just had to new top tier fighters this year where Britain had non for 4 you got to be joking me

Was neglected for years, yes. Is neglected now, no.
After Apex Predators Germany got Tornados, and with the recent updates two Mig 29s.

A MiG 29 does not reverse years of abandonment.
What do you mean years of abandoned ? The only nation that can claim this is Britain

It was never abandoned tho, just because they got stuff late (just like every nation that isn’t the US or USSR) doesn’t mean they were abandoned

Other than Alphajet I can’t really think of any high tier aircraft that Germany should’ve got before, but didn’t.
You could argue it’s time for F4 ICE or Swiss F/A-18 now and I’d agree, but that couldn’t have come any sooner given the technology limit Gaijin sets across nations.

F-18s could have and should have come to nations who didn’t get a MiG29 or an F16. They’re comparable platforms who have their own strengths and weaknesses. They even use Sparrows and AIM9s.
F/A-18 (Aus) or CF-18 for Britian
Swiss F/A-18 for Germany
It just fills gaps that shouldn’t be there given we have aircraft that are far better than the F18
A Soviet copy bombing means nothing. I would say that MiG 29 is the exception. I’ve been playing in the German TT for years, I know what it feels like. Right now, I’m not interested in Soviet copies. I’m sure most would prefer an Alpha Jet to having a ton of MiG or SU… filler.
Since we passed the era of the Sabers until the arrival of the MiG23, Germany was completely forgotten. F-4 arrived late, F104 arrived only with two missiles (and not the ones it has now) and was fighting against MiG-21BIS with R-60 x6…
I’ll tell you one thing, if you take into account the number of players in the German TT, you will understand that it was a dropout unlike other nations with a much smaller player base.
When you have such a popular TT, you can look for solutions. Gaijin preferred to maintain historical rigor, where Germany was certainly weak, instead of satisfying a real and current demand in a video game.
Gaijin chose to discourage German players, forcing us to play on other trees. So yes, it was abandoned and even today it could have looked for solutions to satisfy the demand.

Do you guys think this update will focus on rank 8 ground?
The newest premiums were moved to rank 7, rank 8 has been confirmed to be coming at some point already and more Leopard variants have been confirmed to be coming this year. In my opinion, this lines up very well.
You know whats sad about Britains new top tier jet i legit have no hope its even gonna be comparable to the f16s or migs…

I agree that the early F/A-18A or B models could’ve been added already. AFAIK, CF-18 is based on one of those.
However, the Swiss airforce operates later C models, which wouldn’t make much sense to add without the AIM-120 AMRAAM.
Ehh could argue the tornado series should have come earlier and not together with gen 4 aircraft release
