oh yeah but they don’t work that well i have used the douglass and it’s does not do shit.

Did you read the suggestion?

And speed is not the only thing that defines BR, weapons load is also a balancing factor, and the P-8 can carry very modern weapons, with huge ranges on them

Try reading entire thread before posting.

I did, and I refuted your claim that this can only go 500km/h, in addition to pointing out that BR isn’t defined only by speed.

What else do you want me to say lmao

just checked it’s payload it’s all anti-surface and sub weapons.

so it will only be good for naval battles.

Not necessarily, it gets land attack missiles in the form of the SLAM-ER and bombs in the form of JDAM, which would be good for taking out bases and cap points. LRASM was also slated for getting land-attack capability as well

It’s designation is a naval bomber

here from the source. Technically, P-8A Poseidon can not be considered a ‘Naval bomber’ because it does not carry or drop ‘Bombs’ . It is designed for anti-submarine warfare and maritime patrols. It has many sensors and surveillance systems on board to track enemy surface ships and specially submarines.

Yeah, its a weaponized airliner. GLWT.

it’s role is anti-submarine warfare.

Indeed it is, though that doesn’t mean it can’t be useful in Air or Ground RB. I’ve seen players use the Fritz X in GRB before to great effect, despite being an anti-ship weapon; using cruise missiles against cap points would be no different, except the guidance is automatic

Okay so one weapon for ground but still to big for 5.0 vehicles

If implemented, this vehicle would be high up in BR because of its weapons. It would be more than balanced, as, on the one hand, you have weapons which can put it out of danger from fighters simply due to their range, but on the other, you’re a slow flying target.

It can easily be implemented once naval becomes more modern, which is an inevitability at this point
