I have no idea. Wareta has not yet sent it to devs, and then it will be up to them to decide. I’m not aware of what’s going on behind the scene.
I still find a few inconsistencies. Some mention that there was still an IR detector usable on the F3, I guess there might be an IR channel in the TV sensor. However that would surprise me since there appear to be only one sensor on the TV system, meaning it should only be a visible spectrum sensor

It’s impossible, each head has a separate sensor and processing unit. You can’t fit both in one (and it wouldn’t make sense to do so anyway)


Is there a bug report on the Giat 30 (gun) fire rate? It should be 2500rpm not what it is now.
It is 2500rpm now, and the shell’s stats are accurate as well
I heard that the M791 can be changed to 1500RPM, but is it only 2500RPM in the game? There’s no tracer in the ammo so it’s hard to use.
It’s pretty decent velocity, shouldn’t really need tracers to hit things. Worst case scenario, lock the thing with radar and shoot it that way.
I have find only one source, if you can find more we can make a suggestion
It is 1025 meters / second, so on-par with top tier guns.

I know it has the same bullet velocity as the BK-27, but it is very inconvenient to lose 60+ rounds of ammo with just a few clicks.
Plus you have the OSF that can lock without using a radar. Just press F until you lock the enemy and it’s good to aim

Do people just not bother to conserve ammunition? I was flying it on dev when the fire rate change went through, and if you’re not holding down the trigger and only firing once you’re lined up it’ll take at most 10 rounds to knock out the target.

Depending on the distance, I am not good enough to use a no tracer gun and kill the enemy with only 10 shots.
It is even more difficult when there are only 125 rounds of ammunition and the firing rate is 2500 RPM.
It doesn’t have the same bullet as Bk-27 (27x145 for the Bk, 30x150 for the GIAT) it’s a much beefier ammo in game (in the dev server the SAPHEI had >60g TNT equivalent)
I am not talking about the amount of TNT in the ammo.
After all, if it doesn’t hit, it’s useless.
and bullet velocity should be almost the same for both the M791 and the BK-27.
What would be interesting would be to be able to fire in burst mode “no pun intended” and if that’s already the case to be able to set it either in o.5s or 1s as in reality
or use targeting pod for EEGS
Wait what (From gzabi’s datamine) :

Yeah but i guess they wanted to make it able to fight eurofighter cause everyone complained that 6 missiles really was not ok.
Hopefully they will add some other tranche too and folder f4.1 with f4.2.
