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.
I hope it’s the Gripen as then not only does that mean we get an on par fighter for once but this should allow us to get the domestic SA aircraft to act as filler for the Typhoon
Well since SA is a sub tree and like I’ve said the Gripen could spring bored domestic stuff I wouldn’t mind.
As much I love the CF-18 too it would feel a tad out of place
I would not call the Gripen domestic SAAF, it has contributed but the Gripen is Sweedish, seing SAAF viechelse i would not deny could help Brittian tho
