I don’t know where you’d put this one tbh, it’s a harrier 2 without a TGP
The T.10 does everything this one would do with a TGP
I guess it could be a Shar FRS.1 (Late) equivalent at the same BR?
I’m really not sure why a Harrier GR.5A would even be added. Sure, it would be nice to have a Harrier II between the GR.3 and the GR.7, but the GR.5A, at least to me, is too limited in its capabilities.
I would rather see them remodel the current GR.7 to the GR.7A and add another GR.7 with more limited load out options (AIM-9Ls instead of Ms, less advanced Mavericks, less BOL like they did for the T.10)
Yeaaaah, basically where my head is at.
Though isnt that the T.10 at this point?
though I would quite like to see them swap the T.10s Mk107 engine out for the Mk105 (which would be a nerf) but swap the Gr7 out for the Gr7A just for the Mk107. I think the higher BR version should have the better engine. Not the other way round.
That being said. the Mk107 engine would also be a core part of the Gr9A. So would be good to leave it.
The T.10 is a premium. There is nothing wrong with a TT vehicle being basically the same.
About the engine, I absolutely believe that a 12.3 Harrier deserved to have the Mk 107. The GR.9 might be less special then, but they have other things they can do to make it a notable upgrade over the GR.7A.
True, but i’ll doubt it will be added anytime soon.
Harrier wise, Sea Harrier FRS51 will probably be our next SQV and then hopefully the GR9A on the TT.
Wouldnt say no to a Sea Harrier FRS1 (early) that removes the 9Ls. Would be fun to have a Sea Harrier at 10.0 with radar and EEGS.
seeing as we have a T.10 in the game filling this spot now, we dont need any others filing the same spot (or worse). In a perfect world i would love that, but Hawk T1.A and Gnat should be added next!!!
2 squadron harriers?
I cant think of anything better suited for a 13.0, ARH slinging SQV for us like the JF-17 is for China
Especially as its just a side grade to the FA2
If the T.10 wasn’t a premium I would agree, but it sadly is a premium.
The Hawks and Gnats should come either way, but the Harriers have a special spot due to their ability to land and rearm at heli pads.
Fair enough. What about TSR 2 though? Not 13.0 or ARH but could still be sqv
That’s a F-111A ish equivalent that would probably be about 9.7/10.0
Maybe? But given we already have the FRS1 as an SQV near that BR, it doesnt make sense. Maybe as an event vehicle, but I think there is a gap in the tree for it.
No. The TSR-2 should be in the TT.

there is ONE vehicle
This could carry aim120 and would fit at 13.0 (or 12.7 if it was limited to 2)

Yeah… Im on the fence whether we should be strapping ARH to another sub-sonic just for the sake of it. Kinda hope they restrict the Hawk’s loadout to keep them below 11.3 ish for a good long while and then maybe explore adding one with C5s and ASRAAM
Nah, 13.0 with max missile count. No AMRAAMs below 13.0.
How long until the UK gets all its hawk versions!
9.0 version with no missiles but 30mm gun (Hawk T.1A early)
10.7 version with 2 aim9L and 30mm gun (amx counterpart) (Hawk T.1A Late)
13.0 version with ASRAAM (Hawk T.2)
13.0 single seat with Aim120 and radar (Hawk 200)
Kinda hoping we get something more like:
Gnat at 9.0 with just guns
Hawk T1/100 early at 9.7/10.0 with SRAAM
Hawk 100 at 10.7 with 9L
Hawk 200 at 11.3 with 9Ls and Skyflash
Hawk 200 (late) at 13.0+ with AMRAAM and ASRAAM.

A Hawk 200 would most likely be more competitive in ARB than the FA.2 tbh
No need for ASRAAM to put it at 14.0 when it can work at 13.0 without them.
