Tornado gr.4

would be added alongside F/A-18 with AIM-120C5 and AIM-9X block 3

Not quite, the Indian Air Force updated their Jaguars to carry them.

(Troll everyone and make it an event vehicle lmao)

I’m not sure of their capabilities, but I put the tornado Gr4 below the Jaguar Gr3A because the Jaguar has HMS and the Tornado Gr4 doesn’t (well, at least not that works with the ASRAAM)

You are limited to what you can point the nose of your aircraft at and can’t exploited the off-boresight capabilities of ASRAAM via HMS or radar.

Indian Jags might have HMS/HMD. But I don’t know either way

Tornado F3 FSP likely would be, though we would also have Typhoon F2s with ASRAAM and AMRAAM as well.

Something will be first with ASRAAM, GR4 would be my vote.

But Gr4 doesn’t need to come with ASRAAM and still being a valuable addition with upgrades over the Gr1. Even if thats just the Mk103 engines we’ve been denied so far, a decent Tpod (as they refuse to fix TIALD) and better A2G like ePaveways and Brimstones.

Then you also have additions like TERMA for MAWS and maybe Gr4 can be paired with other additions like ALARM or Sky Shadow

Idk about HMS, I was just going off of flight performance. Especially after the recent tornado buff I would much rather be flying a tornado than a jaguar

Yeah, the new FM boasts well of the Gr4 being at higher BR and not being DOA. But had best be as limited as possible if ASRAAM is coming
