Dance of Dragon - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

You can just ignore that and submit the report anyway in my experience

What’s wrong with the br of A-10C and prem AV-8B. I thought A-10C was resonable before found it can only carry 3 AGM-65D when with the pod, now,12.0 is too high for it in GRB. And the prem AV-8B, is it joking or gaijin really want to put a plane with pod and 4 AGM-65D in 11.3 GRB, throwing missiles safely outside SPAA’s range.

it wouldnt let me, but i fixed it so nvm

Even with 6x AGM-65D and the pod 12.0 was extremely harsh for the A-10C.

The airframe is so shit and the only useful ranged weapons it are said 6 mavericks. LGBs won’t travel further than 2-4 km even if you try to toss them and the APKWS are nice but still require you to be well within SAM range and require you to keep exposing yourself to guide them.

Late to reply to this…
What’s the point of approving suggestion for a vehicle like 111K when it wasn’t meant to be introduced in first place?
I don’t really see the point in encouraging users to make suggestions for vehicles which were partially built and then being (kind of) bluntly told that they aren’t viable additions

The correct solution here by Gaijin would be making a sack of potatoes equipable to balance it.
That’d be awesome.

Given that the Eastern Europe map changes are currently as popular as Game of Thrones season 8, are there any plans to revert the changes?

harsh but still resonable, it shouldn’t be lower than 11.7, after all it’s 6 IR F&F. LGBs and APKWS are just useless toys, so just ignore them. If keeps only 3 agm-65d, i’d say it shuold switch br with the prem AV-8B.
Anyway, US still have batter choices, but the new prem AV-8B, is a real problem, imagining playing a Roland 1 or 2S6, then a prem player using this, throwing AGM-65G in a distance you can never fetch him.

okay and? the US has multiple aircraft that do the same thing so I dont see why its a crime the UK now has 2 bombers

actually they should have far greater range on a plane then on a helicopter, not to mention they are pretty fast so you could doink quite a few SPAAs also I think 12.0 is perfectly fine for the A10C and is inline with other cas jets like the harrier 2s that are sitting at 12.3 and higher

The harriers are a far better platform though, the A-10C being at the same BR as the far better AV-8B+ is a bit of a joke. Especially since the AV-8B(NA) will be 11.3 soon.

Also it could end up being 0.3 higher than the much better F-111F hypothetical situation if they don’t change the BRs.

tbf the F-111F is probably under BRed since right now shouoldnt be the same BR as a tornado Gr1 and the F111C

Other countries still havent received their new rank 8 tanks (just current ones moved up). Give france their embt, israel the turkish altay and japan the k2!!

It’s 0.4 BR higher than the Tornado in GRB, but yeah I agree that I could see it moving to 12.0 when it gets it’s countermeassure count fixed. F-111C just feels like an 11.3 plane in GRB currently that is artificially put at 11.7.

But to return to the original point, the Harriwrs have 500 kph faster top speed and nearly triple the climbrate when compared to the A-10C, meaning they can at least somewhat use their LGB/JDAM at range.
The ideal A-10C loadout will likely be 42x APKWS and 6x AGM-65D. Seeing how slow the A-10C is I don’t doubt that 11km launche range and 5km guaranteed range for the apkws. Either way you’ll be killed by SPAA before your rockets hit.

wait I just realised, gaijin give us the F111C because there was a lot of demand for it and the US already had their own variant getting added, the hope for the CF-18 is still real lol

I can see the EMBT happen, although I feel like the Leclerc XLR is more likely, but I doubt we’ll see the other 2 anytime soon in those trees.

Hell, knowing Gaijin they might just give france the leopard with the leclerc turret lol (was it also called embt?)

I love how:

-Germany’s new Rank VIII: Leopard 2A7V, an uparmored Leopard with 3rd gen thermals and more spall liners. Makes sense.

-Russia’s new Rank VIII: T-90M, an uparmored T-90 with spall liners and 3rd gen thermals. Makes sense.

-Italy: Leopard 2A7HU, an uparmored Leopard with 3rd gen thermals and more spall liners. Makes sense.

-Sweden: has had Rank VIII material MBTs since 2020 and still got yet another one.

-America’s “new” Rank VIII: M1A2 SEPv2, which is literally M1A2 SEP, which is literally M1A2, which came in 2019. Except slower because you can’ take off the ERA.

-U.K’s “new” Rank VIII: Challenger 3 (TD), which is Challenger 2, but without turret spall liners and L/55 with slower reload.

-The rest of the nations’ “new” Rank VIIIs: literal Rank VIIs that have been moved up to VIII on the interface.


I can’t understand how Gaijin is SO AFRAID of implementing things like M1A2 SEPv3 or Leclerc XLR, or giving M1A2 SEPv2 some meaningful armor and/or M829A3, Merkava Mk.4 some sort of protection at all, or FIXING Type 10’s broken steering and missing acceleration, or Leclerc and Challenger 2’s armor, giving Challenger 3 (TD) its historical DM63 so not all mantlet shots are an ammo detonation kill, etc… while they nonchalantly implement stuff like several 122s or the 2A7s.


For the most part, “Rank VIII” feels merely like a stunt to be able to release Top Tier Premiums under the guise that “since they are Rank VII instead of VIII, that means they are no Top Tier anymore”.

if it makes you feel better, gaijin made our top tank worse then the ones it was meant to replace.

but AV-8B+ is 12.0 in GRB, kinda unbalancing

after some rethink, maybe it’s not so useless, it’s 11km range, so you can enter the range, fire and turn around to get out of most spaa’s range, except pantsir
though it’s fast, but no faster than any top spaa, so still not safe staying at any spaa’s range.
