Question, anyone know much about the “M-910-21/22-10” gunpod thats on the new MB326B? It looks super similar to the EDGP-050 Gun Pod 0.50.

Just that it seems familiar to me in my brain somewhere and the guys who make the EDGP also make whats basically the modern universal twin 7.62 pod that strikemaster uses and I am thinking… is this the .50cal gunpod that was mentioned in my strikemaster book that was also available to the strikemaster?

Just thought if anyone knew of it/had data it might help to try and nudge on the strikemaster too as gaijin seem to not be interested in putting the miniguns on the plane.

I suppose a 20mm is out of the question then

Legit I have never heard of this…

Deffo something to suggest lmao.

Wait… is that picture of the Strikemaster actually carrying the 20mm?

Huh… they explicitly mention strikemaster too…

if it gets that 20mm it would have to go up in br massively to like 7.0

I mean is that actually a problem though? The main reason why its 6.3 is because it lacks anything above machinegun weapons and arguably its a bit of a stomper in GRB mode due to that.

I have used the plane without issue in 8.0 lineups for GRB, obviously it will be an effect for playing air RB but with a pair of 20mm, it might do pretty well at 7.0 I think?

NGL I am really tempted to buy that leaflet… Be like, £40 in the end or something with shipping I think…

main question is how many it hand hold at once

Given the picture only shows 2, I would wager gaijin would limit us to carrying 2 at a time if they were kind and gave us them. Though the weight with ammunition is only ~200kg it could likely carry 4?

Whelp I made it, I accidentally pressed to make the post before I was finished haha so kinda rushed to add the images and stuff xD

edit: anyone know anyone who can help bump it through fast? Who knows maybe this 1 might not fall through the gaps to never be seen again unlike my miniguns post.

I’ve really enjoyed the AJAX on the dev server

  • Insane gun handling
  • Good shells
  • Good mobility
  • LWS
  • target tracker with HE-TF shells

The only letdown is the armour, which seems to be incorrect

i think it will be a very capable 10.3 tank, but the BMP-T is just going to be so busted at 10.3 it may outshine it

The BMPT has weak spots, but hitting them before it kills you wont be easy

I’m okay with it, its not bad, but the fact that something like cv90 is arguably better in most regards at the same br does say a lot

did they mess with sraams again they feel… wobbly again

The CV90 only really has a faster firerate, but it has an awful ready rack

personally I’d take the AJAX over the CV9040s

Hopefully this buffs the armour a smidge

The much greater ammo load and ready rack (especially relative to the 9040C) should be a lot better if you can get a flank I’d imagine.

you really notice the ready rack difference between the Strf9040c and the ajax, u can freely fire alot more in the ajax then in the strf… tho saying that the CV9040 gun feels like it does… a smidge more post pen damage

I made this report yesterday by the way

Currently if your LWS gets destroyed, which happens a lot, you lose your IR tracking abilities

Obviously that isnt right

Nice report, currently the AJAX’s armour is pretty awful, making the main structure steel would help a lot

sadly the only thing I can think of that would make it any more reliable would be the PSO package as it would bring the armour up to survive 30-40mm rounds
