Finnish Hawk 51 has no CM so like 10.7 i guess with 9m
Kinda thinking Gnat should fill the role of the 9.0 gun fighter.
T1A at around 9.7/10.0 with SRAAM (was advertised for them, so always a chance)
Then the 100 or a 200 early with 9Ls and hopefully skyflash at around 11.0/11.3 (sets it apart from the SHar having the SARH)
Then a full kit Hawk at the higher BR… maybe.
If you asked a soviet main, they would tell you that Aim-9M = 12.0+. So Hawk 51 no CMs, 9Ms probably 12.0-12.3 if they got their way :D
Honestly i can see gaijin not adding finnish hawks to save gaijin from needing to balance the.
Yeah, sounds like their usually operating pattern
It is not
My bad then

Wouldn’t be the first time Finland air was forgotten
Realistically idk where gaijin would put Finnish Hawks, they have the 51.A which was upgraded a lot, and the MK.66 none have CM but they’ve used 9M, 9L, R60 ect ect. It would be a huge addition if gaijin gave it CM from another model and placed it at a proper BR. Unfortunately if its placed at 10.0+ with 9L it will be DOA sadly
Yeah, maybe they’ll give them CMs because the RAF ones had them :D
Best bet though, sounds like having them more like 8.7/9.0 with no IRs at all, make them a gun fighter, if they’ve got the 25mm ADEN then they would be good, that gun is a laser canon
They also arent like the TH alpha jet, they only have 2 missiles, so it would be very hard to balance especially since i dont believe they could mount the gunpods like the Finnish 50 cal or the 30mm with missiles
Doubt it, they removed the bombs from the Finnish Mig 21 since they didn’t have them. Think it’s very likely gaijin probably will add maybe the Gnat but skip finnish Hawks. I can see people crying about it getting CM’s so i have no interest in dealing with that.
They’ll probably make the Finish Hawks either premium or event.
Someone at Gaijin - “Here’s a Hawk with no CM’s and great missiles at a stupid BR placement where if you get within 10km of an enemy you are dead, and it’s all yours for £60/2 weeks of grinding only to sell for 15GJN”
Wouldn’t suprise me considering if you want Finnish aircraft you have to pay for it. Again we have norway, stop making the finnish line more useless by making it all premium. Honestly getting the whole shaft is standard for Finland at this point.
InB4 Fin F18 is a event vehicle lmao

They may give it CMs like they gave the F-5C CMs
They like the US though lol, so far what evidence is there that finland is liked in the slightest. Again im so used to finland being either ignored or made redundant that any Cope of them getting a decent addition to air is honestly more fantasy than real.
They’ll probably get the F-18 when that comes out, I mean it would be really weird if they didn’t
Not really, i made a joke saying it might be an event vehicle and honestly i can very much see it being an event. Sweden air has needed stuff to bolster it and honestly F18 is a nice addition but im more than ready for gaijin to make it the worst model in some fashion. The real question is will it be the MLU 2 or the base. Honestly standard F18 may just end up as 13.7 since it cant go mach with full load but later models with stronger engines wouldn’t suprise me if they were higher.
Finnish Hornets were bought after it received an engine upgrade, so it should get that at least, they’ll definitely be at least MLU 1 level with JHMCS but as far as air to ground goes I would expect it to be more limited, though Gaijin did recently give the Israeli F-15I access to Mavericks that it never used so maybe there is hope, with enough badgering anyways, otherwise it’s probably GPS guided only with JDAM and SBD, as their other weapons are too advanced
what weapons are too advanced?
