tbf its not unjustified for british players who play the nation for British additions to want well british additions instead of indian at least this one is unqiue and not russian copy paste lol I think that is why the Jaguar IS was received better as its at least a british plane just an indian variant
Yeah, it was at least a British export, though was a wierd addition, too high to be competitive in air and too high to be usable in GRB.
Spading it was painful, even in ASB
Britian isnt the only nation to not get everything its made in its entire existence. Every nation still has massive backlogs of stuff to be added from aircraft, to functions, and munitions. The stuff comes when it is deemed to be fine to be added

Unfortunately not everything “iconic” can all come at once. Britain had a decent run last year of iconic domestic machines that were long requested with the Buccaneer S.2B (Gulf Icon), Wessex (long requested domestix heli), F-111C (another long requested vehicle inside the British tree, Tornado GR.4 and rounded off with the Tyhpoon. So not much more could really be packed in there.
There are always “iconic” machines in the plans for the future. But sadly they cant all come at once.

Sticking with ePaveway II , why are they more powerful than the GBU-48s already found on the German and Italian Typhoons?
Its just wierd…
You got me happy for the first part where it seemed like a reasonable wishlist, and then you started asking for a bajillion different modifications/ upgrades for existing planes in the game that prob have only small differences in performance and use cases that only you are looking forward to.
While yes there is British stuff that is unique and could be fun that isn’t just a modification for something we already have (like avro Vulcan) you will just have to wait on them to add that or just buy the game out from gaijin, become CEO and force them to add those
Indeed its not. And plenty of those came and will continue to come. As we have said many times (as also most recently evidenced by the Rapier), Indian additions dont stop British additions.

Hey Smin (dont want to @ you as Im sure you have plenty of that going on),
With all the graphical updates Gaijin is adding, is there any chance we can expect to see actual top-mounted MGs to actually fed/cycle rounds through their respective receivers? Its a super small graphical change/detail but was just curious. Not sure if you can even comment on that but figured Id ask. Would be a neat bit of detail to see the M2s on top of US and other tanks actually use ammo rather than being a static thing just throwing bullets.
If you see this, cool. If not, also cool.

the joke is these are all planes in game but are bugged so he doesnt see them as “added” yet since they still have major bugs
And the year before that we had 3 major updates with no new aircraft at all. Where I would argue additions like the Buc S2B and Tornado Gr4 should have been added in.
Its still a shame that an aircraft like the Hawk, that oculd have come at any point in the past 3 or 4 years given its BR range potential. Has yet to be added.
Especially in 2023 when it could have come to the Swedish TT at the exact same time. GIven netiehr nation got much that year for their air tree, it was a missed oppotunity.
Nothing specific to speak of at the moment on that im afraid. At least its not in any forseeable plans.

again im fine with it, its a domestic indian jet lol which is at least more interesting then a russian copy paste
of course he sees bugged or non well implemented aircraft as not added, didn’t expect anything different of him
Dang. Appreciate the reply nonetheless.
There is that at the very least.
Could have easily been another C&P thing
Yes, and there will always be gaps. Sadly there cant alwsys be the same output all the time in every major. Vehicles can take up to a year (sometimes more) to produce after everything that goes in.

it is funny for you to immediately say that the variants probably would have barely any differences in game when in game they are pretty major differences between them all
When aircraft are virtually unplayable due to bugs. Then it cannot be counted as added.
Typhoon takes so much energy just to get the radar to see a target in ASB, let alone actually lock on and enable an AMRAAM to be fired that its hard to justify even carrying AMRAAMs to begin with. Its been 5 months and the radar is still a buggy placeholder.
I know loads of people who simply dont play the Typhoon because they are frustrated by its current state.
Tornado took 18 months to get Chaff and a usable FM, even now its FM is still a placeholder that is underperforming loads. We are also missing whole sections of it like the radar.
And pretty much every single one of our top tier aircraft are artificially nerfed through the floor just with how they model BOL as mini CMs instead of the large CMs they should be.
Aircraft like the FA2 and F3 are a chore to defend in because BOL just doesnt work.
Sea Harriers still dont even have a usable gunsight and have been waiting for 2 years for EEGS to be added, heck they still ahve a sooty exhaust.
My bad that im not a guy that invests all his time into whatever british vehicles are and their performance.
