Technically it was built for the RCAF(and the Allies as a whole), we just gave China the left over stock after the war.
I did say in their right mind; rabid German mains are most certainly not included in that group xD
Not all of them are like that but a good portion are strange. Regardless i dont trust gaijin considering NL to france and Swiss to Germany
Also going back to that Aussie F/A-18
Australia | Operator country | War Thunder Wiki
14 out of 15 Australian vehicles are British, so take that :P
yeah, BeSwiLux would have made more sense for France.
I do get why they didn’t give Germany Belgium though xD
I also dont care about the leos in the slightest, i know the german mains do which is fair but looking at a lot of Danish or Norwegian vehicle suggestions it is just the German players screaming and just being embarrassing. Imo i just want the ETS, m41, NM (including the m113 chassis’ lmao) and their aircraft. Imo DK/Norway would be huge additions for air.
But CF-18 remains the logical option for UK
Because they didn’t want to change BeNeLux
Time to claim Orkney and Shetland lmao /s pls no hurt
Currently the primary purpose-built(despite that nation not having it) Canadian thing(that isn’t Canada first) is the CL-13Mk 4, which was built for the UK and its RAF.
Au contraire, Canada is much more split with 7 British and 3 US vehicles
I’ll concede Orkney, but the Shetlands we keep
If you look at it from what UK mains actually want, they just want a hornet. The CF-18 would give the same gameplay as a USN/USMC F-18C. This would fill the role perfectly for the UK tree. Now, the Australian one can carry python 4 and asraam. This would give it a different gameplay to a degree, making it well suited for the US as a squadron or event vehicle since we will already be getting a regular F-18C
Hmmmm, deal
But consider this, I’m selfish and want the ASRAAM all to myself, the US didn’t want it back then, well they can’t have it now :P
Consider that you guys could get an AESA CF-18 with 9X block 2 in the future
And consider that the US will also get an AESA F-18 with 9x block 2 in the future so it would be pointless in our tree, just like the older CF-18
It would be a nice trade
I guess Smin blacklisted me for this 😭
Where can you see it? )))))
I know who the other one might be lmao
Better Whisky in Orkney
