Does have a touch more armor in a few places, looks like:
I doubt that “extra armor” is really gonna make a difference though, but I could be wrong. Doesn’t change the fact the ship is the size of a Yamato, and has even worse AA than the already joke of an AA compliment the Bismark has. It still wont be a match for the current 8.7’s imo, it’ll be on-par with a North Carolina imo.
I see that China is getting the Type 052D as the AI destroyer, probably for NE
My question is: if the new Fujian carrier can be escorted by a ship that is historically relevant,why is the new Ford Carrier (added with this trailer) being escorted by the California Class which left service 20 years before the commissioning of the Ford? Just add the Burke at this point
Unless they give it a 23 second reload!
Then, it will have that ONE strength over the rest!
Much like Bismarck does, except its shells and armor are too mid to be truly overcome.
H-39 should play like a Bismarck, but with more explosive power and penetration.
It wont dethrone Soyuz or Iowa but depending on what RoF Gaijin gives it its probably on a similar level to Lion
NavWeaps states its ROF is ~2 rounds/min, so likely 30s reload
If only those laid down ships and ships which were actually built and had service career had the same approach to such parameters as reloading and accuracy. It isn’t fair to give one ship the worst possible practice reloading and at the same time best theoretical values for another one, just because it wasn’t finished.
rip, was hoping h39 would be decent, looks like we’re just sol, could be worse, at least I didn’t grind Italy
I find the distinct lack of submarines in the trailer disturbing…
xx1 my beloved
Only thing that interest me is the scene with the B-17s taking flak fire which leads me to believe that we’re gonna get things like the Sd.Kfz.7/6 and changes to time fused shells for the flak bus so we can actually use the flak 88 for anti air purposes. But this is probably not the case. That’s too much love for the WW2 era! Gaijin would never! (And also the Japanese boat with the Sherman on it. That certainly interests me, and makes me wonder if it’ll be WW2 or post war. Hopefully WW2)
bomber cockpits after a decade and a half
isnt a Type 052D chinese destroyer a little too modern for the game?
Can we see 2A8IT? Or are we still gonna be stuck with Ariete AMV, at least give us Ariete C2
grind Germany if you want 2a8, what’s even the point of tech trees with that logic
C2 would be just like Ariete AMV, and 2A8IT was cancelled in favour of I-MBT, a KF-51 variant with 120mm gun!
My honest opinion on the next update if it doesn’t have Submarines:
Now that Germany is finally getting its 2nd uparmored Leopard, it would be hilarious if Sweden ALSO got 123A/B, making it their 4th uparmored Leopard and continuing the tradition of Germany having worse Leopards than Sweden lmao
I wouldn’t be surprised if like 40% of the vehicles in the update are premium or squadron
The two US additions I was looking forward to are both premium
They don’t really have much of an excuse imo.
We had silent thunder in 2018, so subs have been on the mind for atleast a little before then.
We had Battle of the Atlantic in 2023 where they were much more fleshed out and fitting into current naval (ie ww2 subs rather than ‘modern’)
We also had submarines added to WT mobile, so atleast some model work had been done.
End of 2024, It was confirmed submarines would become a permanent part of the game (This was also in the 2025 section of the QNA so they implied we’d get permanent subs last year)
End of 2025, It was confirmed again that we’d get submarines in the game permanently.
Tail-end of 2026, We got a tease of the old VIIc model used in BotA (which makes me fear they’re just gonna make BotA playable again instead of adding subs to the TT)
And finally, subs didn’t appear in the November update trailer.
So depending on how you look at it, we’ve been waiting on perma subs for almost 9 years.
please don’t jinx it
