Well where are those all??
Like i said… Germany has 2 mig29s already, meanwhile brits are stuck with 2 phantoms with 9Gs and boat with wings.
Does that actually make sense for you?
“Right now germany is in a good place compared to sweden and britain, so it’s germany that needs better missiles (on top of R73 and R27 lmao) and not those that are struggling.”
how do you know that? not every missile has to be featured in the trailer. And even if they don’t add them now, theyre gonna do it at some point anyway right?
bro the f-16 FM runs circles around the 29. and with ground huggers, SARH is nerfed to hell.
There is still time. Most suspected that F-15 and Su-27 would remain SARH for now, even if ARH was added. That way lower performance airframes like Sea Harrier FA2, AV-8B+, J8-F, etc etc could be fitted with ARH and find a degree of balance.
We’ll have to wait for the next few weeks and see, but still a good chance it will come
F-18 probably next update since squadron decals in BP.
when dev server opening? any info yet?
Highly likely today’s evening.
Correction - Germany is in a good place right now and will be in a decent one when the update releases. But unlike Britain and even Sweden, it doesn’t have any options for aircraft to keep it competitive over the next months. Despite being one of the top 3 most played nations. No options, that is, without AMRAAMs on vehicles such as the F-4F ICE.
Giving the Tornado AMRAAMs would turn it into a broken missilebus. Especially broken if no other nation is given missiles anywhere near that capability. When there are so many other options to add, why would you ever pick the Tornado from a game perspective? It’s just a terrible idea. Every nation should get AMRAAMs and equivalents at the same time. That time should be late next year, allowing for more 12.3s, 12.7s, and 13.0s to be added. Then, aircraft such as F-16Cs, Typhoons, F-15C/J MSIP, Su-27M, etc. come in at 13.3 and 13.7 with those new missiles. Finally, with the missiles being widespread and players having time to learn how to defeat them, older aircraft at lower tiers can get AMRAAMs.
Not just rashly throwing a uniquely powerful weapon system to a single nation just because you main it, irregardless of the consequences.
A Tornado at 12.7 with AMRAAMs would be like the A-10 or Su-25s in Air right now. Balanced, sure. But sure as hell not fun to play against with more conventional vehicles. Especially if there is no possibility of those aircraft ever seeing anything but downtiers.
thx
Oh yeah, I’m totally cool with AMRAAMs coming eventually. At higher BRs where they will only really fight current top tier. Not poor little Mirage F1s and F-4EJ Kais fighting Gripen Cs or F-15Cs.
I’d hope not for this update at least. I can see the subsonics being alright when equipped with AMRAAMs. They’d just be basically levitating Pantsirs, though, so not particularly enjoyable to fight or play. But SPAA disguised as slow moving aircraft isn’t anything new.
R-27EA right now actually exist they arent mass produced they are retrofitted R-27E’s with R-77 seeker
Sweet! didn’t know. I would give you a like, but I ran out for the day.
Its probably a little much for the game right now with nothing to compete.
Unless… they give the Tomcat its true radar strength and precision and model the aim54s.
That would be a kind of interesting head-to-head type long range missile dual.
i woke like 5 hours ago so i am mostlikely out of them aswell
lol
j11A?
I think they’ll also add F-15J and J-11 as well since it’s clones of F-15 and Su-27, so no big deal to show clones in teaser.
I would hope so, but also it would be funny because the J-11 has a better radar.
WT radars is just placeholder mechanic. Gajins tweak it as they want.
Aint that the truth
