A compression is needed. 16.0-17.0 will make God Mode much easier than before. An 11.x delta-wing has enough speed and maneuverability to sneak up and shoot down a Typhoon or F-35B, unlike the current 9.0 early jets, which are hopelessly outmatched
Very simply just do it in ground and shoot down helicopters.
For me, great fighter aircraft 6.3
But forgot update BR ?
Why not decreased BR to 6.3 ?
The first 1st gen fighter aircraft for british and very low battle rating
It probably should CA-27 Mk.31 to premium tree
It would have to come at 15.0, it would be too OP
So i might have made another suggestion about a British superprop. Hawker Fury LA610.
i do not know where it would fit, but since it is essentially a land based Hawker Sea Fury with a different engine.
Also 2 completed prototypes were made, and a 3 ordered but never finished.

well the good news is that its already technically in the tree, just under a different Prototypes name, when I get around to it i’ll change it to just a Generic Fury Mk.I and attach your suggestion.
Thank you!

I predict Typhoon FGR.4 increase max BR to 15.0 in 2 years (2027), and gaijin ready add AIM-132 (Blk 6)
ASRAAMs will be a game changer perhaps to OP
For the obvious reasons we all know we are going to finaly get gr9A jaguar gr3 tornado f3 late go up in BR Gripen C too ASRAAM will change the BRs of a lot of vehicles for sure

I have some suggestions for some modifications of Spitfires, that might be interesting as either Premium or event vehicles.
The 3 Spitfires with the serial number BP985, BR114 & BR234, were all three Mk Vc, that were similarly modified by 103 MU, to be able to intercept the high altitude Ju 86P. From what i know, they engines were modified with a higher compression ratio, the propeller were changed to a 4 bladed de Havilland propeller and some of the armaments were removed to save weight (I have found conflicting information on what armaments they retained, some said they kept the cannons, some said they kept the machine guns and one site i found even said they were equipped with .50 cal). They successfully intercepted a Ju 86P at an altitude of at least 39.000ft. One of the pilots of these 3 aircraft is George E. C. Genders, one of the pilots that died during testing of the DH108 Swallow.

The second spitfire modification is a Mk IX with the serial number BS273 that was also modified to intercept the high flying Ju 86R aircraft. The modifications on this, included removing armor on it, and reducing its armaments to only 2x 20mm. It was piloted by Emanuel Vladimirovich Galitzine, where with this aircraft, he is credited with the highest recored air combat during WW2 at 43.000ft.

Then there is the AD269, where it says that it was a trial Spitfire Mk Vb with 2x20mm cannons and 4x5in mgs.

There is also NH346, which is a Sptifire LF Mk IX with D type wing carrying 2x 20mm and 4x.5in m/gs.

.
Of these aircrafts suggested, i feel as if the BS273 & one of the 3 Spitfires modifed by 103 MU would be quite viable to add into a tech tree, because the information available about the aircraft. But for something like the AD269 & NH346, while they would be interesting aircrafts because of their armaments, i just haven’t really found any of info on them outside of the history of the aircraft in regards to unit and squadron history and its fate.

very interesting, I will look into these when I get a chance.
Thank you!
I haven’t had the time to look through the proposal but have you looked at the Vampires that mounted two Firestreaks?

From a quick google search, i didn’t find specifically a Vampire mounting firestreaks, instead it was a de Havilland Venom NF2, WL820.

Ah yes, my apologies, I meant the Venom. This would make a fun addition to the TT or a nice 8.7 Premium or an event vehicle.
