Did they change the Zero or my memory wrong? Why the self-sealing tank on A6M5 mod. 52 gone?
(For those who doesn’t know chinese it just said "Fuel Tank, non self-sealing)
Only the A6M5 Hei has self sealing fuel tanks.

Is there any reason why the OCU can’t use 8 mavericks?
Or is it just an arbitrary decision?
OCU is a flying corpse, gaijin just giving more reasons to bury it xD
I don’t see why they would limit it, but they did. I doubt irl they restricted the use of 8x Mavericks.

gaijin should’ve added the F2 all the way back in dance of dragons against the J10A and left the J(M) as japans 14.0, this is just ridiculous.

I think because it was never tried irl. F-16s used to carry the mavericks in 2 triple rails that can be mounted on 2 pylons, then these rails were taken out of service and replaced with single rails that can be mounted on 4 pylons. So the configuration of the old triple rails plus 2 of the new single rails was never tested irl so Gaijin doesn’t want to add it (even though they break this “irl” rule all the time, they just apply it when they want to)

D4Ys got a new bomb - 500kg HE one.
But you can’t bring it and even just one 250kg.
And in the custom loadouts menu it is impossible to replicate one of the default loadouts.
Thanks gaijin.
*similar story with D4Y1 and D4Y2, if you choose to bring the 500kg you cannot bring anything else, not even the tiny rockets

Anybody finds disappointing that the plane intended to carry ASM-1 from the beginning is not getting them until later?(I know they are broken and as useful as an aim-9b on 12.0 but still) and like I get that they want to fix the missile first but seeing the 600$ on premiums really makes you roll your eyes but at least now there’s no excuse to not add GCS-1 since ASM is in the game now

“No Proof it track tanks” - Gaijin
despite having proof it quite literally can (come on gaijin u have the proof, its all public info and its been modelled in the game since 2021 just add the damn thing)
That picture you were sharing is not about GCS-1 seekers or similar it is only about thermals development
There has been other data shared by many others excluding myself for a while now gaijin just doesnt seem to realise
However they implement missiles like KH-38MT based off a brochure and even buffing it by giving GNSS (from a brochure lmao) - despite it being a mockup/never existing
