(My offer still stands if you want someone to spell check it in advance)
I mean I am mostly half joking but yeah either the F-15SG or Su-30MKM would be rather nice.
If they wanted to the F-15SG could easily be swapped for the F-15K since that would give it access to unique armaments though that opens the whole can of worms that is Korea in the Japanese tree.
I reckon they’ll get a Thai Gripen E alongside Sweden
Doubt it, the ink has barely dried on that contract, Deliveries are expected in 2029 or something iirc
check out what the USAF 428th Fighter squadron currently operates
Hasnt stopped them anywhere else. Like adding the 2S38 or even the Chally 3
Honestly with it taking half a year for Sweden to get the Grippen C I’m expecting Sweden to end up with a Grippen C Late whilst every other possible nation gets a Grippen E or something like that
Yeah, probably. And the Gripen E they do get will be nerfed as hell. Like no belly mount hardpoints
Smin, are you hyped for the coming Major Patch? ))
The difference there is those are prototypes in the manufactures tree, we don’t even know the exact specs of the Gripen E the Thai airforce is going for.
And iirc from what I’ve heard the Gripen NG is the better option right now, less features being cut out due to systems not existing in game
Its very clear from both the context and what we were talking about when we said “aircraft” in the statement. The RAH-66 had already been shown and made clear at that point. So it was very clear we were not referring to helicopters.
Im not sure what the attempt to twist it is here. Other than a “Ha got’em!”
based upon the SAAF gripen, that doesnt really matter. It will just be a C&P of the Swedish Gripen E.
Perhaps, but Japan does need something as well. and I think the Gripen E remains a possibility.
I have to know, is it true that next patch will contain something with turbine blades?
Windmill TT?
We already got the Dutch m8
Don Quixote isnt going to like this…
Its pretty self evident what we were referring too in terms of the statement, when it was posted and the context. It defiantly wasn’t Helicopters. The RAH-66 was already shown by that point.
It’s like some people say it’s a fight in a telephone both. araams or similar missiles is all you need really
Idk, the F-15J and F-2 seem to be doing fine, they’re not anything meta defining, but neither will the Gripen E. For all intents and purposes ATM a Gripen E would just be a big C with a better engine and a IRST, + a few more hardpoints (iirc 2 more?). It’s not going to solve any of the issues the current Japanese top tier has.
It’s a joke :)
