I’m expecting that to be Germany’s tier 8 premium.

Out of all the options, that is the best one, so why are you against it?

And if it is, I’ll certainly buy it!
F-4F with AMRAAMs right?

F-4E with AMRAAMs.

True but locking good CAS for germany is absolutely criminal to me

I just want a brick with AMRAAMs so that’ll work.

Which makes it only more likely.

Good CAS should never under any circumstances not be in the tech tree, so it not having good CAS is by no means a bad thing.

The F-4F ICE and Tornado F.3 AOP are already in game.

I agree, when ARH-capable premiums are available(assuming the game is well into gen4+), peace icarus seems like a good choice. It also seems like gaijin is going with the theme of heavily upgraded gen 2/3s for rank 8 premiums, except the leaked but not introduced JH-7.

Both too far for me to easily get. Play more of other trees and have very limited game time.

And at least til now, F-20 and bison are rumored to be ARH capable, at least the latter one is definitely R-77 capable. They may receive ARH at once when every nation gets them.

F-4E with full glass cockpit, HUD, AIM-120, LITENING II + laser guided weapons

aka F-4F ICE done right

I know it’s not a popular opinion, and I don’t even really want it because I like my F-20 at it’s Br, but I think there is a real possibility ALL rank 8 premiums will get ARH.

If the leak is correct, that is a version without guided ordinance, or even the larger IR missiles. So prob a rank 7 GE premium I think.

The Bison used R-77s in real life, that has been proven time and time again, it’s just that the F-20 apparently was planned to be AMRAAM capable but never got the upgrades.

I hope it doesn’t get them but it’s probably close enough for Gaijin to give it if they want an ARH theme for rank 8 premiums. It’s great at it’s Br in sim. If it gets AMRAAMS it’ll be in a perpetual downtier but I’m kinda expecting they’ll do this.
