Just wondering, why do I need to play this when I can utilise Scimitar in 8.7BR? which can also mount four 1000lb bombs and four ADEN?
But Scimitar can also utilise guided weaponry like Bullpup or AIM-9B :P
So, Gaijin, are you guys planning to give India to the British, but without the juiciest parts?
Are we not allowed to have ANY rank 5~6 planes without getting over-BRed?
People here already said that stock it outperforms spaded Hunter.
I think that it’ll be a bit weak in ground RB, but to me it seems like it will be excellent in air RB. It has a great climbrate and top speed for a subsonic, and decent manoeuvrability too.
The only downside I’ve seen is a lack of A2A missiles, and poor energy retention, but people just refuse to admit that it might be kinda good.
Yep part why i am looking forward to it.
Im actually glad it comes without some missiles like 9Bs as it can sit at 9.0 with current matchmaker, which should allow it to play without ever meeting all-aspects if i recal correctly (not at PC right now so i cant check)
You are correct. Lowest AA is 10.3.
Though instead you face the issue or dealing with supersonics with AAMs without an AAM you can send chasing up their tail pipes.
where is maneuverability? it can’t turn at all
Listen. this thing is a Swift F.1 with ground ordinance. I don’t care that it outturns a hunter, that’s every plane at that br. It gets no ccip and there is nothing that says it should be 9.0.
Su-25 gets R-60M. But at 9.0 it will face the Draken, mirage III and 5F, F-1, T2 and other planes with aim-9Js and R-60s.
So yeah gonna be a pain
Its in the Britain TT. You have to add 0.3 to 0.7 BR just from that alone
It consider being able to pull 10+Gs at speeds above 600kmh pretty maneuverability.
I don’t know why people aren’t accepting that it has good flight performance.
It should be 9.0 for its Mach 0.93 speed on the deck and incredibly good climbrate for a subsonic. It also can turn well enough, and is not lacking in acceleration unlike other 9.0s.
+it’s rank V so it has an airspawn
Why won’t people accept that Britain got a decent plane for one?
If it does, I’ll be pissed because the Buc S1 doesnt at 8.7 and no A2A at all
Its against the ToS
Nice to read that many brit devblogs :)
Yeah I dont get that myself, test flight it feels really nice. My only complaint is GRB BR being le terrible. Sad at planes getting screwed by SAM systems, yet alone proxy fuse radar systems when they lack CCIP/RP to allow them to actually you know, get decent guesswork on where the bomb will land while using their mobility to fight it.
Would be fine with it fighting all the gepards and the like, in fact looking forward to it, just dont want to constantly fight rolands.
I wouldn’t be suprised if its either up-ranked or redesignated a Fighter, cause it’s going to be extremely good with an airspawn
9.0, poor energy retention, no CCIP, no A2A and horrible turn time=9.0
this thing is going to face the german sabre and the ariete, you know this means its DoA right?
doa was change 7.7->9.0 i hope marut will not became another 10 snails plane :/
The benelux,premium and squad hunters all have A2A on a lower br you know?
In RB they dont. Hunter FGA9, J34 and Dutch F6 are 9.3 and the Hunter F58 is 10.0.
Only SB does it get funky with the Dutch Hunter F6 being 9.0 for some reason (lower than the J34)
