Good

Main theme of the update doesn’t deny major stuff for other categories.

Main theme of sons of attila was hungary, yet they also added the arguably more hyped F-16C/D and MiG-29SMT that update.

Main theme of supersonic was rank VI aircraft, yet they also added the entire italian ground tree that update.

Main theme of starfighters was the F-104s, yet they also added the italian naval tree that update.

A discussion going way out of control is not good, it’s never good.

ETPS is owned and operated bt QinetiQ. Their jets are privately owned jets. They are military contractors. They are allowed on RAF bases because of their work. They are not a part of the RAF or owned by the RAF. They are contracted and in agreement with the MoD. That’s it.

It be like saying the raf files som f/a18 so they should get them

The ETPS Gripen D additionally is kept and maintained in Sweden at SAABs facility, they don’t keep it around at the ETPS

Plus it isn’t used for combat training either, rather for test pilot training and research puposes

There is literally 0 place in game for private companies. It would be insanely jarring to start seeing actual brand name company jets in War Thunder. It has no place.

Also again - You’re asking for the impossible. ETPS’ Gripen has no weaponry, no systems for firing missiles or anything. Its a training jet. For training.
That’s it.
