CM Covert Disclosures No.3: Updates from Smin

yes, and it isnt a radar. Its just as described, Infrared.

2 tanks shared between the trees isn’t going to do much, especially as one is a low tier premium

Strela does not have IRST lock, the system by itself has a radar lock, missiles have IR lock.

Yes it does happen. But only in IR mode. In auto system puts IR lock first, photocontrast second, and flares are ignored in photocontrast mode.

Exactly

Heres hoping gaijin doesnt just do this for britain and actually lets other nations get their vehicles that were locked to another nation though i doubt that will be the case since Smin ingored my question as to whether wed see more of this type of thing. Could mean Germany can get The ADATS from Britain since they want spaa and most german players consider the Flakrad to be the worst missile spaa. I just think its a meh chassis with okay missiles but maybe im just lucky.

@Smin1080p_WT
I do hope this ping doesn’t bother you, however I’d like to ask:
Given the developer team is still looking into the F-111F/C and its implementation ingame, can we expect its placeholder RWR and Radar to be fixed eventually in the coming weeks? It currently uses the F-5Es radar as a placeholder, and the RWR is copy paste from the F-111A.

If Gaijin really wanted to give germany a ADATS, they could add the one on a swiss chassis, since Switzerland is a german subtree now

They could just like they couldve added a US spaa instead of being lazy and adding the skink.

Is it? I have not seen any confirmation.

But why the British (Canadian) one?

Because they have 2 Canadian leopards?

Hey in gaijin words those nations arent exclusive to any nations and their vehicles can go wherever. Besides The germans want vehicles from just as many nations as the british at times they just blend together. Besides the whole F111C thing has been a pretty hot topic in a few servers im in on discord. One of our Danish servers has a few memes about Britain and germany fighting over who can claim what nations.

Pretty sure Smin also confirmed it on the forum but I cant find the Quote

That is not a sub tt…
Just what we knew for a long time, that Swiss things are put in Ger for now. If they want, they can put a random Swiss thing into any other TT

The future 2042 they fill the gap.

i would be pissed tf off if i bought a vehicle and it got moved into a different tech tree

Not a “hardcore” main of US, though I do play them a lot. But why would we freak out over you getting the M4A5? Just curious. It’s a great tank.

I mean it would be like the others if it was moved. If you had the US one you got to keep it but now you can only buy it in the UK tree.

Similar stuff happened to premiums when they added a new TT.

Yeah but the original stayed in the old TT, stuff like the Shot Kal Dalet, Merkava Mk.3D, Strv 81 (RB 52) and others can still be played in their initial TTs.

Would you mind explaining how exactly does the PL-8B differ from the AAM-3 and R-73 so much that it somehow warrants extra extra “”““consideration””“” and yet had no qualms with putting these 40G IRCM missiles on the F-15EJ and Su-27? Most of top tier air still don’t have IR missiles comparable to those, and the Su-27 was demonstrably extremely OP on release before they nuked it into the ground. At this point Gaijin literally has a track record of constantly gimping Chinese jets and refusing to fix them like the J-11A even after multiple bug reports have been submitted and forwarded for review, please explain to me how this double standard works because the fact that the J-10A doesn’t come with the PL-8B out of the box makes no fucking sense to me whatsoever despite being clearly equipped with them in real life on a regular basis.
