Cause I ignore statements that don’t indicate anything.
“We intend to add more tech trees in the future with no timeframe.” tells me nothing.
Adding 12.0 with F-16s and Mig-29s, superior airframes to Gripen, while announcing Gripen this year with no BR increases since 2022, and it’s clear 12.3 will be added, and it’s clear AMRAAMs are part of it.
Average added BRs per year is 0.7.

On top of that, the F-8F “PL-12s will be added with equivalent missiles alongside multiple tech trees at the same time.”

Whats blue fox?

Of cause they can’t give a time frame for a new nation is big news and you can’t screw that up.

Hence why they stopped road map since like 2017

I wouldnt say the F16 and MiG-29 airframes are “Superior” to Gripens but thats just me I suppose

Sea Harrier’s Radar.

Sea Harrier FRS.1s radar

@XSpaz1NOuTX thank yall

I guess it depends on how much thrust F-404 produces at mach 1.
I’ve only found static thrust numbers so far.

True I just know its enough for the 39A and C to supercruise with full payload

Well, F-18 can even supercruise, tho with what loads IDK.

Also true its not exactly a good calculation for a lack of better term atm

But the Bhishma doesn’t have locally produced Kontakt-5, and the tanks are still assembled from kits made in Russia. It’s not an Indian tank, it’s a Russian tank accepted for service in the Indian army.

Thats because to my knowledge they produce their own ERA and Composite and Ammo like I stated perviosuly ill do more research for sure though and I believe the Indians use the Welding method on their T90s? Cant remember right now

Edit: I could very wel be confusing it with the T90MS so keep that in mind

Okay so it retains the Kontakt-5 but the Composite is replaced by Indias own “Kanchan” composite and of course the Thermal imaging sight are of French Origin not certain on exact sights

Edit: I was correct I did confuse the MS and the S the MS upgrade consisted of Indias “Kaktus” ERA and new Sights

Edit 2: The FCS and Navigation systems also differ from the Russian T90A

I can accept most of your comments, but I don’t believe the R-73 has as much range as the AIM-9L, like not even close. It would be nice to see someone measure it to be honest. The R-73 is coming because the R-60M definitely doesn’t have the range.

Historicity aside (R-73 was designed during the procurement phase for both the MiG-29 and Su-27), I’m fine with restricting the R-73 to the SMT right now, but long term it needs to be on the 9.12 and 9.13. Regarding the ET, you just don’t see the predecessor ever used, and when I unlock it, I’m happy to test it on the live server to see if it’s worth anything, but they mostly seem to be a shot in the dark per Tim’s Variety who has tested the ET so far. They can lock at almost 20km which is astounding, and almost revoltingly sick, but they’re a novelty in function. That FoV cone at 20km is still going to catch almost everything during guidance.

In the mid range, I could see someone using it, especially in SB where you play, but in RB it’s only advantage is a quicker lock than having to change to ACM/HMD (Y->1->6->6) to quickly lock up a plane on radar for an R or ER launch. It sounds interesting, being in IRST with HMD and and trying to pinpoint an IR lock, but it’s just not how most people play the game. I think your fears here are a little overblown.

I understand airframe is a factor in missile performance, but I don’t believe that justifies adding a new type of guidance. If you want to go that route, then you need to add the R-27EA’s or add the Su-27 with 6xR-27R’s.

And ideally, down the road, India will develop it’s own major protection upgrade package for the T-90S, but the one they want to add to the game is a T-90A basically.

I completely agree it should get a domestic round with performance on par with the 3BM-42. 3BM-22 is nowhere near as bad as it’s labelled, but the extra pen is a nice touch.
