You’re right my bad.
Afaik no leak has said it would be premium, including the ones that said the 2A4M would be. Gonna have to wait til dev stream/server to see how it’s implemented.
Would have preferred an AMRAAM-capable Tornado instead tbh (now I’m not off-topic :P)

Cheetah would be a much better option for like an 11.7 or 12.0 which is also needed for when Gripen goes up with its ARH’s.
Typhoon doesn’t make sense without ASRAAM or AMRAAM.
It could only carry 2 skyflash and 4 AIM9 AFAIK.
The SA Gripen should get the Dartier missile with the next patch
It was a case of we get the gripen, or we get nothing.
I would always rather have something than nothing, and this is not a time to be choosey when we are dealing with the implementation of vehicles which are still classified.
The thing that would make it competitive is R-Darter, otherwise it’s just another Kfir with less missiles.
It couldn’t carry skyflash
Yeah it’s basically a Derby made by SA. Idk if it actually has any difference at all.

Imagine
Going to be impossible to find good data to bug report either way. I fear how bad its going to be. I doubt the SAAF Gripen will be competitive in BVR
Hopefully they consider them both the “same” missile, like it was on dev.
Though werent they noticably worse than other ARH with the exception of PL-12?
Yeah they just lofted to space at long range.
Well. We’ll have to wait and see. I know i’ll be in the FA2 (if it comes) more than the gripen. But would be disapointing to find that after waiting for effective BVR on the gripen, we still end up with no effective BVRs
Was kinda hoping for a new F.3 to grind tho :(((
Im guessing Sep. This way round is a tad better. beacuse at least we get a new aircraft, not an existing one with some different AAMs.
Sep?
September Major update
Ahhh gotcha
We are now entering the realms of what modern aviation will bring, we are never going to find accurate data on these weapon systems that are still classified. The way I see it AIM-120 and R-77 will be the best and the rest will be playable
oh boy plsssssss
