Oh damn it, again, the tank exploded, I couldn’t extinguish it, burned again, what the hell is going on?

Time to develop HESH-FS

Fairly certian Turkey dropped its objections end of July. So just waiting on a final vote and will likely join before hte year is out.

I think that vote is sometime next month

Its possible. Lets wait how it turns out.

Yeah, but I think its highly likely at this point. I think it was just Turkey and Hungary making a fuss for the sake of looking like they are still “friends” with Russia, but in-reality, it was always going to happen. They also just want some things out of it, Like Turkey was hoping to use it as leverage to get into the EU for example.

So I reckon Sweden will join this year, and hopefully Ukraine sometime next year

Is that the list of Hungarian tanks that should be in game?

Well the list of every Hungarian tank in ww2

Ah… that makes sense, was gunna say, no KF41 on there :P

The spin isn’t for accuracy, from how I understand it the rotation is needed to make sure there it has a consistent explosive effect on impact, gyro stabilisation affects impact consistency in a way that fins don’t, you only really want fins on a penetrating round not for explosive

Lol but yea as you can see

we need more toldi’s

Stop it flagging me

What is wrong with this comment ?

Gets added to the German Tree

The spin stabilises the shell during flight. HEAT is fin-stabilised because spin actually diminishes its performance. The rotation forces the explosive energy outwards but you want it to be as focussed as possible. For HE that doesn’t matter.

Yeah, most shell types only need aerodynamic stability which is why fins work well, but HESH benefits from being gyroscopically stabilised to give a more consistent interaction between the head an the target, the explosives would scatter more if it was only fin stabilised

We try a guess in autumn event gaijin migh consider aircraft rank 7 or rank 8 from China or Swedish or UK or USA ?

Im expecting some kind of Su-25 Variant to be honest

So event vehicle as a fighter aircraft rank 6 for china tech tree but not rank 7

“Since the F-100F was not equipped with flares, we’ve decided not to add the AIM-9P air-to-air missile to this aircraft, which would have caused its Battle Rating to increase.”

Watch them add flares to the F-15
