Regardless to try and skip around and say britain had nothing is just a lie even if the Gripen wasn’t a domestic jet it still was the best version for an update and has still received upgrades it blatantly shouldn’t have. You can say that Britain hasnt received a good domestic fighter but it is silly to just ignore that Britain was doing good with the Gripen.

Like Sweden we had nothing for 2023. Gripen was very good until they nerfed the hell out of it. Then it felt average to me. (and really boring gameplay) Then ARH was added, and it became one of the weaker top tier jets. R-Darter is really behind the curve.
Id much rather take AMRAAM on it than R-Darter.
Honestly suprised gaijin didn’t just give the AIM 120 to the SAAF gripen considering it got MS20 upgrades and will probably get more upgrades from MS20, who knows maybe gaijin will give it Meteor and IRIS-T when we move to that level of jets considering they believe all gripens are just the C model.
The SA Grippen will get the A-Darter probably.
Maybe, unlikely gaijin will probably upgrade it to MS20 but leave out Meteor since SAAF never used it. While ignoring that SAAF never bought MS20 and only MS19. Might be a pretty strong vehicle if they put it down in BR compared to other IRIS-T users.
Though i cant see Gripen C’s being competitive at that point without their EWS. The apex of the C is the NG and ive already had to try and stop two people from using NG reports for the Gripen C.
There are still a lot of unique WW2 planes to add, not even variants, but completely new designs, hell we are missing entire Caproni family( For example, this is my theoretical Italian TT with Hungarian/Romanian line:
One of the few prop aircraft I really really want
(will also be perticuarly good for naval)

They already said that country of origin will get initial vehicle first.
Not even slightly true, AV8B+
Now do we count if home nation and operator get them at the same time cause Gripen C was given to SAAF while sweden got gripen A so technically another case of that not being true.
Harrier country of origin is UK.
AV8B+ is a US model. Again wasn’t given to the US first. Additionally the AV8B is unique as it was made by the US.
Licensed production.
Won’t count.
Chances this won’t a bugged filled mess?
Id believe that if gaijin said it but they already have a hard enough time following their own rules so your statement means nothing.

The lack of legacy hornet still is worrying by the next major update it will be 2-3 year out of date. the fact the f15A and C was introduced before the f18 has created a problem with implementing it because its just worse than the c and much worse than the f15e in game so it will most likely now be dead on arrival what do you guys think they can do to make it’s addition not be DOA I’m interested in what the community thinks?
However I’m completely excited for this update as a US player I’m excited to fight the Eurofighter and Raphael, I feel sorry for Russian players though, who knows maybe when Pantsir alternatives are added your flight models will be returned lol.
