It might miss a unique heavy hitter like the 2A7 but instead France is competetive in every aspect of GRB. Tanks are not the best but fine and its a deep lineup. Heli is among the best. CAS is arguably second to the 38MT slingers. And the SAMP is as good as ARH SPAA gets. Id rather have a competetive balanced lineup like that than one that excels in one aspect but is severely lacking in others.

Oh yeah it’s absolutely for the Rafale as well. It just feels like within the US tree the devs seem to care more about the Hornets than some of the other planes.
The Hornets are constantly first in line for new weaponry, Gaijin had a massive cope episode where they wanted to move the Super Hornet to 14.7 believing it on par with those jets and they just keep trying to hype it up.

Which I toned down the very next post. But hey, feel free to engage with all of the other things said instead of laser-focusing on that one thing.
Again it does if the game isn’t representing the armor correctly, so your saying that you dont care if the Tiger II gets 10mm of frontal armor in its upper front plate?
So you’re saying armor is the thing you rely on while playing T2H ?

Real question is who aiming at the Tiger 2 UFP anyway… 10mm would not make any different unless your aim is shit and you can’t be bothered to learn common weakspot or even flanking
Thats what i was talking about exactly xD
their “internal testing” is 100% sure truthfull and works like that
NII STALI internal testing is “wrong lies advertisment bias”.
Weve been over this already. Look at the ownership structure in the russian MIC vs the one in Germany and theres your answer.
I remember that, but that still doesnt quite justify such. Especially when most of the sold machines only see garrison duty.
Yes it does. The BMVg has no reason to lie on behalf of a private company not delivering on their contract. The situation between government agencies, independent oversight and private companies is a completely different one compared to russia which is why people question the credibility of russian statements regarding capabilities more than the ones from democratic countries.

Yeah, why would a company lie to their buyers to cut costs and earn profits. That never happened, never throughout history…
Oh wait.

??? Ofc private companies lie but thats exactly what the job of the internal testing Jεcka mentioned is. To test whether said private company really delivered on their promises and that test is done by a government agency with independent oversight and no direct ownership of said company. The same cant be said for anything russian. I dont know why this is such a hard concept for you.

Because of the lobbying mechanic that IS existent in both US and Germany :/
Same “independent government agency” is no doubt to be lobbyed by certain politician which has affiliation with the company. Its basically no doubt that happends. That happened several times with tenders to be given out for the US military at least. But thats not the reasoning here as far as i can tell. Reasoning is “abrams make by GMC docs” but “T-80 make by some french docs” is a sick logic.
Ofc theres lobbying going on but thats the beauty of a democratic system that there are multiple independent oversight mechanisms that check and balance each other. To facilitate a lie on the level were discussing youd need to lobby multiple people in: The BMVg, BAAINBw, Bundeswehr, the current party in charge, the opposition and of course the competitors in the MIC since they would have lost a contract based on unfair business practices.
Do you see how that is a tad bit harder to do than: “we can just say whatever we want, because we own the MIC and independent government agencies with oversight dont exist”?
Lobbying or straight up corruption happens often with giving out tenders. But using that to get a contract is a completely different ballpark to making the government lie on your behalf as a private company on an unfullfilled contract.

Yeah you’re delulu
It’s BMVg’s JOB to ensure the promised capability is delivered, if it isn’t, they will reject the product until is complies with requirements.
That happened to the F-125 class frigates, for example…

KMW is kept to basically the strictiest requirements even too, the ONE time they tried to lobby, they got hit with fines straight away, BMVg and BAAINBw don’t take crap from anyone after that time Lockheed bribery got a bunch of Luftwaffe pilots killed.
