Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

So a legacy hornet, will it just be US or all other nations, like Finland or Switzerland?

idk, hopefully US

I think the plan with JATM is to use it more sparingly with the AMRAAM still being in significant use, the way I heard it described was the JATM is a kick the door down missile and the AMRAAM is for clearing the room

I think Finland should get it too, don’t really see the need for Switzerland though

yeah pretty much, but now with 6th gen on the horizon and Chinese mass produced 5th gens, i think the AIM-260 will replace amraam completely due to necessity

eh they have gripens already, get them an MS20 Gripen or something

And the Fakour 90 is now at a correct BR.
Derby is superior to F90 in everything other than absolute range on a platform with a more efficient engine, better radar, better RWR, and similar countermeasure counts.
The only downside is Kfir is a Mirage 5 airframe, so it’s the 3rd? worst airframe at 13.0.

For AMRAHM carriers, front-line speed matters more than total airframe performance usually.

Won’t matter they will add the Hornet to everyone like the M44 did

soo… and whats the point of having the last heavily modified variant of the Kfir in the World if it would miss practically one of the most escential things that makes it the Block 60?, i totally would prefered the normal C.10 instead of this, right now in the state it is, it is being completely wasted and is far from what it really is. its such a shame.

not really, it has quite good engine, which mostly fixes overall perfomancce of frame

there will definitely be a switch towards the JATM long term, but I think the US still wants to stockpile AMRAAMs and use them against lower tech adversaries, the AIM-120 is still a great missile, it’s also lighter and cheaper, you have to remember war is an economic game, no use having the best stuff if it bankrupts you out of the war

I added a sentence that addresses that likely while you were typing that.

I think it would be a good addition to Finland, they need something to sell their new top tier Swedish premium as well, so it seems likely

Australia could for Brit air.

Not this patch, Britain just got the Typhoon, besides Australia isn’t a British subtree, we’re more likely to get the MKI if anything, should save the Hornet for a rainy day

I mean even if it’s not our sub we would still get stuff if gaijin thinks it’s either niche or their was a canceled project we had that a commonwealth equivalent could plug hence the F-111C.

but there is no canceled project that would justify the hornet

adjust your game well because I don’t have this problem, I did the test with my team and no one has this problem in my team (there are 122 of us)
