Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

because thats just annoying nerf a domestic plane in the ground heres a f16 go have fun
F16=Sherman at this point

Again its nore reasonable to want a F16 than a gripen fix because theyve been ignoring the gripen for months since it came out. Again with how much of a flop Finland was as a subnation since it failed to fix any of the holes in air. Something needs to be added. Idk if you enjoy flying a heavier and slower less maneuverable mig 15 an entire br above them but i dont. Thats literally their tt from 1.0 until 13.7

It’s fake, but it’s funny.

Sadly enough the Gripens are still overperforming. I wouldn’t be surprised if they got another FM nerf/change and eventually went down in BR slightly.

(All the more reason to add the Gripen-E, which fixes a ton of the Gripen-A/C’s issues)

They wouldn’t change br, thats wishful thinking but quite silly

It depends on how much they change it and how much decompression happens. We can’t really say what will happen until they make changes in game.

I mean the Gripen A is dog walking a majority of 13.0 while the Gripen Cs are fine at 13.7

They dont need to move at all, those 2 BR brackets need to just be ripped in half and the ceiling raised.

“Don’t like seeing your tech in other trees don’t export it” is a quote that likely won’t even stop needed to be repeated.

With the Norwegian F-5, it’s basically confirmed that Sweden is a home for those nations in the region. So, I’d rather the vehicles of those nations come and be added to the TT hopefully rather than the unattainable ways.

In all honesty I’m surprised the Gripen-A still has its HMD and 9Ms. If it were up to me it would be 12.3 with its proper FM, 9Ls, and no HMD.

At least there it would be a F-16A counterpart, and its Skyflashes would actually have a use.

Arjun is an excellent addition and very unique and exciting.

Su30mki is so stupid i absolutely believe gaijin would do it.

Law of equivalent exchange i guess.

Okay, with how much compression we have. You are someone who has way too much confidence in gaijin fixing things. Example.

Gripen A vs C on launch, given their flightmodel for 2 months there is no way the C and A wouldn’t both be same BR even if the C had HMD. Even though its a huge advantage. The A would be too strong to move down. Same logic applies here. The C would be too strong and so you’re just nerfing an already horrible vehicle in the current altitude meta

Chill out dude, it’s not that serious

It should’ve been added like that but gaijin had to screw everything up by adding the gripen C at the same time. All gaijin had to do was not bring the C in alongside the A. When the F16C came out 2 months prior the gripen A should’ve been released and the Gripen C could’ve been added in December

you just said “12.3”

let me make this clear. There is no amount of nerfs to the Gripen FM, that would justify throwing down at 12.3… you could remove its HMD, its 9Ms and it’d still be 12.7 material at the lowest.

He can’t see that even though i explained it, again its realistically too late to change it.

If that’s the case then I’d argue the F-16A would need to be 12.7 as well (which I’m not opposed to).

The Gripen-A and F-16A should be analogues to each other, that’s all I was getting at.

That means IRIS T then

It’s not too late to change numbers :)

it’s just code at the end of the day

Ok, that “leak list” annoys me.

With Italy getting an F-18, I don’t have a problem with them getting it per se, my issue comes from them getting it but not the UK. Simply put if Italy is getting one the UK better be getting one.

F16 A is better in flight performance. 2 equally skilled pilots will normally leave with the F16A winning after the last flight model nerf to drag. F16 holds a tighter circle and keeps and regains energy just a bit better.
