4.5 gen multirole combat aircraft with AESA radar coming to rank 9

Battle rating up to 14.7 or higher if gaijin prepare 5th gen infrared Air-to-Air Missile and beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile (BVRAAM) from mid 2010’s - 2020’s era after Q1

Guided Air-to-Ground munitions better VKS MiG-29SMT (9.19), and equipped Rafael Litening targeting pod

the F16XL, will likely be a prem plane for the US

I hope these stuff never comes to Naval gameplay, would be the most boring ass, game play since and doesn’t fit the game mode

only difference in agms is rampage

plus by “its the same” i meant the radar is same

any chance gaijin add submarines to the main game?

its weapon load, and generally the aircraft itself is only 13.3 worthy

if you dont count astra mk2

it’s been like this for eternity

I dunno how good the Tejas’s performance is, but with such a small amount of missiles and probably not as much agility as the eurocanards I doubt it’ll do well at a high br

has a pretty low Thrust to weight ratio too

I think 13.3-13.7 is reasonable

1.07 full

85kn engine

It’s more than grippens

Imo what decides whether it will be 13.3 or 13.7 will be the following:-

  1. how good astra mk1 will be? Like will it have pretty low impulse and hence slow accel or will it be decent/good with win120c5 like impulse

  2. how many astra mk1 will it carry, only seen with 2 max but can possibly carry 4 of them too with ejector pylons which is in testing rn

If only 1 of the above happens it will be only 13.3, otherwise 13.7 worthy

It’s somewhat comparable to kfir c10

T/W doesnt show the full picture actually

White its lighter than JAS39E it also has significantly less combat load capacity.

I expect to be on par with JAS39E in terms of 1vs1 performance if all the claims on flight performance are true.

Ordenance will hold it back tho

I can see Gaijin adding it with Derby and R-73 only to keep the BR more aligned with the aircraft

or alternatively with too good weapons to allow for Powercreep

Rather than ordinance flight performance concerns me.

On paper it looks quite good but the question is how accurate those estimates to begin with?

Is the F2 ADTW a good premium at 13.0?

I’m kinda thinking about it.

Which one are we even talking here? The Mk 1 or the Mk 1A?
