Would have stood a way better chance against the F-16C than either the F3 or Gr7 did.
Considering we are discussing air and not naval and ground (though both are just as neglected at top tier)
We got a C&P sea harrier (still unfinished), F3 unplayable when it was added and only fixed this year. (Though still massively underperforming) And then the Gripen at the end of the year. Which was rapidly nerfed.
Jaguar IS was DOA and the strikemaster locked behind the BP which is a full time job to unlock.
I am not saying they arent lazy overall but in the context of the osa and that instance they were the opposite, the same with giving the swedish gripen AGM 65G
It explains the reasons for introducing more commonwealth vehicles. Since then, as we have explained, to keep all Indian vehicles together, they will be introduced to the British tree as a sub tree.
Sweden actually used AGM 65, SAAF has never used it. Sweden had a better argument for than they did. Besides sweden was last to get AGM 65 considering Gaijin though RB75T you know the AGM 65A with HE was good enough for 12.7 ground.
