Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

True, but with everything else being pretty meh-bad about it’s flight model I think it’ll be pretty meh compared to stuff like the F-15s and it’ll get destroyed by the Typhoons/rafale.

From a very quick and dirty google, they have the necessary upgrades to use them, but have yet to purchase them

its just cool looking tbh, I even made a dedicated squadron for it😔

We will eventually, hell the Gripen C already doesnt have the right Radar and afaik there are Gripen Cs with the AESA

So you started yapping at us yappers 🙃

Its just the coin flipping from what we’ve had over the past few years.

F-4s have always been strongest in BVR fights with Mig-21/Mig-23/Viggen etc dominating them in a WVR fight

Tornado F3 / F-14 always been strongest in a BVR fight with F-16, Gripen, Mig-29 etc dominating them in a WVR fight

Now its just F-15/F-18 strongest in BVR fight with Typhoon and Rafale stronger in the WVR.

So what else do you suggest we do?

I can see the flight model being close to JF-17 but with superb AoA and maybe better energy retention. And again 10 AIM-120 would give it extra edge against EFT or F-15

That’s your team issue, consider so many players only have 1 spaa lmao

I’d say F-18 will be strongest in mid range fights because it just wont be able to get to these super high speeds required for fair BVR.

until meteor comes

Bro, my teams usually dont even have more than 1 tank, let alone spaas😭

eft comes with 12 total missles

6 wvr and 6bvr, soo ehhh

Yup, then it will be T4 Typhoon with Meteor vs F-22s with Aim-120Ds. That to me seems like a reasonably fair fight

yall think we get devblogs this week?

Its max 10 (and only with twin AIM-9 pylons) with up to six AIM-120. Rest are short range missiles

Probably

Even then, i dont think we’ve conlcusively proven to the devs it can take 6x Aim-120. Might be 6x IR and 4x BVR

its 12, we gathered multiple sources for it

Even if you gathered brochures or planned specification it doesnt make early block capable of carrying 12 missiles. You need to be specific as of which model is supposedly capable of said loadouts.
