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

Just give it countermeasures regardless, will be a balance nightmare otherwise. Also it would be compatible with magics as well am I right?

Multiple other nations have ace/pilot related vehicles and have had them for some time.

Naturally we don’t rule out the potential for more in the future too. Just nothing to speak of currently.

No magics, only Aim-9Ps.

That doesnt matter, unless the soft/hardware to use Magics were removed. Gaijin might even permit it to have CMs, especially if its a premium (F-5C…)

Instant buy, maat 🇳🇱

Well I wouldn’t mind that, would give us a more unique variant, at a different br with different armament. What BR would it even get with 9Ps?

That will be an absolute must, even at 10.0 no cm can be painful so imagine at 11.x…

I expect them to make the NF-5A premium, the F1 will probably be tech tree

@Smin1080p_WT May I ask if its Indended that since the Nuclear Thunder event, also SAMs in SB Intercept everything?
Before the event this wasnt the case

I believe that’s literally the case tho lmao

As for the countermeasures, it’s definitely on the table. I’m not too familiar with the French systems, so I don’t know if gaijin will consider the underwing attachments as compatible or not in the same sense as the F-5A/Bs dispensers, but for all I know it’s still quite possible.

So here’s the thing about Greek F-5s: First they never had countermeasures, but we all know that doesn’t matter for gaijin. Second they had F-5A/Bs, NF-5A/Bs as you’re aware, and RF-5As. Third, During their service, they used Aim-9Bs, Aim-9Ps, and Aim-9Ls. If gaijin wants to, they put the F-5A at 10.7 with Aim-9Ps, and the NF-5A at 11.0-11.3 with Aim-9Ls. Otherwise as you said it might just be a premium/researchable counterpart, but my hope is any premium/side section would be a two seater variant or their tigereye.

For a Mirage F1CG with 4x Aim-9Ps, assuming it gets countermeasures, I’d assume it’ll sit at either 11.0 or 11.3.

really wish they dont get countermeasures so they are unique

On one hand yeah sure you’re a bit more unique, but you’ll be better than the Japanese F-1, meaning 10.3+ BR. The Mirage F1s flight model isn’t absurd, but it’s still pretty decent and above average at that range. At such a BR range you could literally face all aspects regularly given the prominence of uptiers at the range, and even Magic 2s and R-73s on some of the planes in that range if you’re unlucky.

No countermeasures at 10.3+ is a death sentence. It would suffer heavily at the cost of being marginally more unique than it already would be with its armament options being limited to Aim-9s exclusively. It wouldn’t be worth it to make that plane and those who play it suffer so heavily, just for the sake of uniqueness when imo it already would have plenty.
