Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

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.

Hawk T.2 with asraam at 14.0? :D

(i want the funny nosecone)

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.

Why? 2+4 fit?

not if they correct the FA.2

ir signature, BOL and energy regeneration at medium speeds will fix it and make it a very formidable fighter

Don’t be ridiculous, they aren’t gonna model the FA.2 right in a million years

Its truly awful at 13.0

i want too see ONLY that move down to 12.7 since its single advantage right now is its aim120, which it cant even use in BVR because its too slow. you replace the guns TOO to take them… truly the plane of all time

or they could decompress 13.0-14.0 → 13.0-14.7 and leave it as the only AHR at 13.0
