on release the FGR2 was just a heavier F4E that was it, because it didnt come with its PD or Skyflashes, and it never had the agile eagle upgrade so it couldn’t dogfight, it was good when it got its PD but it was quickly over shadowed
Its the US. They’ll get every single variant

not really again I would prefer gaijin at least tries to stay to nato vs warsaw pact but if its better then the challengers sure, not sure what nation we could get that has VT4s tho
apparently
I feel like gaijin adding pakistan and india to the UK is a terrible idea

I can see F/A-18A as the initial variant (after F-14A/B which get foldered), then the C being after that, with F-14D possibly being either before or after (depending on weaponry and such). I could maybe see the F/A-18B as an event aircraft, but F/A-18D’s the one that has me confused.
Either way, Hornet is a Hornet. I’ll be happy either way
(I must eventually have the complete aircraft collection from the Area 88 OVAs in-game, it is a long-term goal lol)

i think nigeria would be more likely
I want it because:
A. it looks cool
B. it plays a major part in my favorite anime/manga (I have mentioned this before too many times lol)
And on that bombshell…

Lol somehow thats the thing I dislike the most. This is a video game, accuracies are neesed for tanks, but matchmaking should be as ahistorical and chaotic as possible. UK vs US, get it a third round, Russia vs China, Japan vs Germany and stuff.
What’s the anime

Area 88 OVAs (1985/1986)
(this clip specifically is from the opening dogfight of Act III: Burning Mirage)
Sadly, only 3 Hornets appeared in Act III (already stretching it since it’s set in '82), and all three bite the dust. First two die to R-23s fired from Mig-21s (very cursed) with failed proxy-fuses, third goes down after slamming into a rock during the nighttime canyon-run

Saab on their way to make up for lack of IRL Gripen sales by giving them to most nations in War Thunder
Imagine if this is the only plane that gets ARHs in the British tree 😂

You joke I can totally see gaijin locking our ARH missile behind a paywall and making us wait almost a full year for a TT plane to have ARH missiles
