Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 1)

in here to 5 years we are gonna have the armata probably

and the abrams X and the german thing

while france will have no tonks

KF51 Panther, funny thing is on the russian forums the players dont have any trust in the T14 Armata, in their eyes their newest tank is equal to to our Leopard 2A7V. And the KF51 and abrams X are purely out of reach lol

germany and france as well as italy, sweden are collaborating on a new tank desing the MGCS (main ground combat system), just that the french continue behaving in their current way they are getting kicked out of the project lol

i think its a little bit of bias against the armata, Lazerpig is a biased westerner that says that the armata uses a german ww2 engine which is not true because the armata uses a newer engine, but still everything is classified about it

with newer engine i mean a 2010 engine

so we dont know everyhting abt it

no i mean the russians themself in the war thunder forums, russians have their own forums they have no faith in their own tank, nothing to do with lazerpig

I was talking in terms of military cooperation and overall relations, though also in terms of postwar vehicles, at least in the air tree.

Hopium another Commonwealth vehicle come in next major update.
Yes, Im a hopium guy

CF-18… A guy can hope

It’s very likely, but I gotta prepare myself mentally to grind a stock sea harrier in top tier…

Could be the case, though Gaijin stated in the last dev stream that ARH missiles will be given to everyone, all at once. So unless they’ve changed their mind - Then harrier and Viggen wont be exclusively using AMRAAMs. Everyone else will, too, making them DOA.

I think the most likely aircraft for Britian is CF-18. Comparable flight performance as F-16C, Can mount AIM-7s, Is a BVR platform, modern multirole jet that has ties to commonwealth and would fit in UKs tree to fill the gap

I do love the fact that, because of the way Gaijin has made the trees, only the US and USSR have their own native vehicles, and every other tree ends up having a whole range of options. It’s almost as if the US and USSR weren’t superpowers.

if britain gets the CF-18, then literaly only germany will be the one to get the L, everyone will have modern fighters with ARH missles while germany will have to fly the bus of an f4s ice, definitly sounds like a gajin move

You guys at least have the MiG29A

UK has a bomber with missiles that dont compare to whats at top tier lmao

yes, but the Mig 29A doesnt get access to fox3 missles. Giving the L to germany for the fox 3 missles isnt fair either, just like the current uk situation

should have kept your aviation industry mate

Wonder when we get a new Dagor Engine
