Now I’d like to add that I don’t think we will ver see a super etendard carrying magic 2s under 11.0, because it has been confirmed as fixed (meaning coming next patch) that the Magic 2 now had an IRCCM. That, on the a SuE under 11.0, would be a pretty bad balance decision, as the Magic 2 will become much, much better than the Aim9L, which is already better than the R60M. However, I do still believe that the SuE in its current form is to high BR. 9.7 would almost make more sense to me. It’s not like we don’t already have aircrafts with 30G missiles under this BR. The SuE would only bring the capability of having 30G (rear aspect) + flare at 9.7, but that would be compensated with a lower CAS capability than other subsonic, CAS equipped with 30G all aspect missiles at 10.0
Magic 2s are receiving IRCCM soon, so I doubt anyone wants a 10.7+ Etendard just cause it was given Magic 2s.
Agreed unless we get a whole new aircraft with Damocles, and as30s then I think the Etendard is fine where it is.
It also makes more sense to me to have the SuE at the lowest BR we can, as top tier mixed lineups already have the 2 M2Ks, and 9.7 lineup only having the Jaguar at 10.3 (10.3 leading to more frequent 11.3 up tiers ive noticed than 10.0 lead to 11.0), and can only carry 2 guided missiles with 2 AAM, while the SuE has 4 guided GBUs in addition to the 2 magic 1s, which instantly make the SuE better for me than the Jaguar (although it is slower)
I don’t see the point in “justifying” nerfing the SEM by removing certain weapons from it when it had them in different versions. If the SEM has laser-guided bombs, it must have AS30Ls and Magics 2. That’s how it is. or either it has no laser-guided weapons but just classic bombs, magic 1s and few decoys and it’s just an SUE from the 80s with a BR between the Etendard IVM and the Jaguar
I still hope Super Etendard from dev server as a SEM standard 4 because Air-to-Ground armament better Mirage 5F same battle rating
idk why you cant just leave it be its fine how it is
No, the version proposed by Gaijin would be “truncated”. and what is your problem? Isn’t it normal to want an in game plane to be consistent with the real capabilities it had IRL?
Well when it makes the vehicle way to high in br to where you dont even have tanks to use it or way to useless yes i do question why.
There’s no Kh’s with a TGP at 10.0.
AS30L with a TGP would put it up with the Jaguar A/E’s.
I don’t see how the tanks have a link with the weapons capabilities of the plane in game. when we do CAS tanks have no interest…
Ground RB has a lot to do with it its weapons are useless if not used for cas and you might as well use the 2000d with the br it would get put at with buffed Magic 2s and if it goes up its cas is useless because you would be fighting probably around 11.0 in ground rb problem is France has nothing between 9.7 and 11.7
Citationproblem is France has nothing between 9.7 and 11.7
and Jaquar?..
and the jaguar is another useless aircraft
Jaguar is useless in CAS?.. lol
Useless in terms of lineups. There are no mbt’s until 11.7 for France after the 9.7s. Unless you want to uptier your one 9.7 mbt to 10.3 (If you’re lucky you dont get dragged to 11.0). Its an excellent CAS for a non existant lineup.
so according to you you might as well have a little superEtendard with only 4 laser-guided bombs and you will be happy…boys with small ambition
oh think it it could be great cas except you have nothing to bring it with why is that so hard to understand
AS30L can be added to it now, without any BR change.
it’s not OP, as it’s one at a time vs AGM-65 with full Homing head.
also 2vs6 per aircrafts.
Magic-2’s well, it only have 2 of it,… not 4 and despite best efforts, it’s still a subsonic aircraft.
Well if the Etendard can be 9.7 with Magic II’s, Laser guided bombs and AS-30L. It would be pretty nice wouldn’t it? But this is not gonna happen now is it. (Im not saying this seriously)
