custom hangar

the vehicle is already ingame and can be forced into a premium vehicle spot with a custom hangar

i can certainly make it test driveable

ah ok

would be appreciated so i can have a look at it early

and once it is in one of the premium vehicle spots you can click on it which lets you also test drive it

Save and modify a Protection Analysis hit replay file in notepad to say

object:t=“uk_fv107_scimitar_mk2”

Then load the replay file while looking at a Premium vehicle in the hangar that you do not own. You should be able to go “Back” and then have the option to save it to your wishlist or test drive it.

Thermal generation is wrong. It’s Gen 1 by the looks (circa 1998+ ESPIRE) when it should be Gen 3 (2009+ Upgraded ESPIRE/MSPIRE with Catherine MP)

A new British low-cost anti-drone/UAV missile has been shown at Farnborough, MBDAs Counter Mass Interceptor. Very little is known in terms of specs, and live firing trials are yet to be carried out.

Mounted on the Raven 5 Air Defence:

I’m just waiting for them to eventually get DRAGONFIRE down to vehicle portability.

Then we can go full LASER-LAND-ROVER

Nothings stopping them from adding a trailer tbh

“New” glide bomb being developed by Raytheon UK to bolster the RAF stockpiles announced at Farnborough 2026.

The Red Kite.

Seems to literally be GBU-53 Stormbreaker but with some similar but different internals and built within the UK.

I’ve actually seen Red Kites (the bird not the bomb) irl, pretty neat bird.

Yeah they’re pretty cool.

Hey, regarding Brimstone 2, its said it has a MUCH greater range than OG Brimstone, and by the photos it doesnt seem its form factor is that different/bigger/heavier, someone knows how this increase range would translate in game (more burn time on the motor, more agressive loft, more battery (like AIM-120D)?)

I thought the plane had fired the red kite :P

Any idea how many typhoon will carry? will be great if like x16 :D

Different motor isn’t it? I have no clue tbh

Entirely new motor and potentially a better battery (iirc though, there was an argument to get the Brimstone 1s battery life increased on the grounds that the Brimstone 2 has much longer range but doesnt appear to get any battery upgrade)

The range should increase by about 200%. So it should reach around 60km with a good launch. But its the short range performance which should be notably improved, with far better Time to target on those shorter range shots which are actually practical with a SAL only weapon.

I dont know if the Brimstone 2 does loft better or not though, or if that is something that comes with the Brimstone 3

Its also not entirely clear which gets Prox fuse, Brimstone 2 or 3, but I think its the 3
