Basically.

6009

Perfect scenario would be after F-16ADF, but with it getting its AIM-120)
ADV can go to that line too, since both ADV and ADF were placeholders between F-104S and F-2000 irl. Though maybe in the future when more planes arrive to other lines, like M-346FA, A-200C, EA-200, F-35s XD

6010

It would make a lot more sense to put it after the Tornado ADV

0.7 br difference

6014

Probably the UK one if EW is modelled, as the UK has selected the ECRS Mk.2 AESA radar which is generally better than the ECRS Mk.1 AESA radar selected by the Germans, especially in EW. Otherwise they’re all pretty similar except the German Eurofighters lacking IRST, oh and the UK ones being Tranche 3 upgraded to Tranche 4 standard, rather than new builds.

Would this have any meaningful differences from a WT perspective ? Or are we talking just like under the hood avionics / tech stuff ?

6016

Shouldn’t effect in-game much, it’s as you said mostly under the hood stuff and logistical stuff, however there’s a chance the upgraded T3s might end up a little heavier, but we don’t actually know much about the T4 upgrade atm.

You and me both man.

Like I said before, I’m really happy for my other minor nation friends (especially Germany) getting their Gen 4.5/++ aircraft and cautiously optimistic that there’s more.

Same. I’m incredibly happy for Britain, Italy, Germany and China air players.

But as a ground player, there has to be more
and more interesting ground vehicles coming than the depressing collection of ground vehicles that is on this list.

Funnily enough I’m a ground RB player mostly but I look forward to doing CAP and maybe some CAS. I like keeping the air clear for the team, so I’m ironically looking forward for more aircraft, or in this case, a very particular one.

I’m hoping for a few more ground vics as well, I main Japan and UK, and the leaked additions aren’t super exciting imo. A SAM, yay, always love bullying CAS, but it’s probably going to come in at a BR I just don’t play, and a another artillery piece for Japan, at a BR I don’t play lmao. Not super exciting. Kinda hyped for the EFT, but also I just don’t really like AirRB above 9.7 or so, so I’m honest not sure if I’m even going to focus on grinding it.

Why not both at the same time?
Gaijin already did that with the USA F-16A / F-16ADF, which were added at the same time and then foldered in the next update.

Nope.
CH F-18 has no air->ground ordnance. It would be either 80EUR premium, squadron vehicle or worst case under the Mig-29G. In best case it never gets added to Germany.

EFT will be under the ICE, makes no sense otherwise.

First column is not “American” and the second is not “Russian”.
Past rank V ↓

    1. column is West Germany/fighter
    1. column is East Germany/fighter
    1. column is European/fighter-bomber
    1. column is non-European/fighter-bomber
    1. column is bomber

That being said, the Su-22 should be foldered as well as both Mig-29’s.
