I mean, depending on what sort of equipment they were both Fitted with, it might not be too bad
if the Hawk 51 wasn’t fitted with missiles it would probs be a good 8.3/7 fighter with limited ground attack, and the Hawk 66 could be limited to rear aspect and put at 9.7, that’s just my two cents on it though. Britain seems to be in a far better place for getting its Hawks
To be fair they did state if South Africa had been a thing when TH-800 was added, it would’ve went to Britain instead. So it really depends on what Gaijin intends to do, if they still decide that way or not.
The main difference to the Leopard 2AV here is obviously that the 2AV was intended for Germany, while the trialed German tanks in question (at least the interesting unique ones) were intended for export.
These are also arguably more interesting than pure copies of more common tanks, so vehicles like the Thai M41GTI or TH-301, or the Indonesian Marder Medium Tank RI would be interesting to see. Though I’d personally say at this point it is only fair to give them to both nations rather than having players fight eachother over them.
So then the problem is waiting for gaijin to fix that which isnt happening which means the finnish hawks go back to having 2 paths, doa or missing proper defensive equipment
This is their loadout. Theyve never had Aim 9b on any models and both the 51, 51A and 66 use these
