Canadian Leo 2 and Australian M1 shouldn’t be in the British tree yet, I agree.
I think Britain should get some form of Canadian subtree, that would likely include the Leo 2, but for now the only Canadian vehicles in the UK tree are there to fill gaps in it, and MBT is not a gap the British tree has.
Just like the KF-41 isn’t needed for Germany as they have the Puma
I thought so, I would really love it, but I’m not sure. Argentine vehicles look like prostitutes serving to fill out German lineups. They never gave us the Pucara, nor a decal, nor a mention of the country, etc. (like they do with Canada, Australia, Poland and other countries with vehicles in WT)
I mean you managed to misquote me in a pretty important way, I definitely said Leo 2 shouldn’t be in the British tree “yet” and nothing else you quoted seems out of place.
Once the Puma gets Spikes the KF-41 would become pointless anyway and Britain have like 300 Challenger 2s
Except you just said EJ Kai had all of its radar capabilities & AAM pylons filled.
EJ Kai’s radar was fully functional, being the first ever F-16 radar in WT.
And since that F-16 radar has a CWI it can fir AIM-7Es & E-2s, thus the loadout is still available even if IRL it was not equipped.
As I said previously, it does not matter if IRL nations equipped the loadouts or not, it only matters if they’re capable of them.
Gaijin will introduce AESA radars at the same exact time they’ll introduce XF-2. That’s their known behavior, any deviation would be a change of behavior.
Same with limited armament, leaving AAM pylons empty would be a change of behavior.
Underestimating AESA’s strength at making SARHs more powerful shouldn’t be understated.
And we still don’t know if notch zones exist.
Yes, F-2 will be the first AESA aircraft, facing against conventional radars until F-16 Block 60 is added.
