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

I suspect they’ll do an A10/Su25 or a Harrier/Yak.38

I’d really prefer if ECM came some time before the ARHs come, but knowing gaijin we’ll see AMRAAMs before they finally work on proper ECM

Those fcking premium Type 16s need BR raise

AV-8B+ with AMRAAM is quite likely for US I suppose this year.

It could come in this update

My hope is that we get limited ARH roll out + general ECM roll out like this update and then full ARH roll out Dec. I think it would be the right balance

The AV-8B+, sure, but there’s no chance they’ll add enough ARH platforms in a rather minor update

Yep, if SHar FA2 comes, Id bet money on AV-8B+ for US in the same update and vice versa

we already have a couple of F3 platforms

Yeah, but not enough to conform with gaijins plan to release BVRAAMs/AMRAAMs to ALL nations at the same time

Its possible, Gr7 was the main top tier 9L launcher added in oct and then we got F-16s and Mig-29s in Dec. Has been used as a Pre-major-update update

well Sweden, france, Israel, US, USSR, Italy, china and Britain already have something capable of carrying Fox 3

Maybe J8F will receive PL-12 this update and others will receive ARH missiles in the December update

I’d take that with a grain of salt. “Same time” doesnt explicitly mean all in the exact same update, but rather within a small timeframe, like 1 major update

You do realise those planes have wildly varying degrees of BVRAAM capabilities, right?
Especially France is way ahead of the pack with their MICAs

Could do that, though its Aim-120C equivalent right? Need to be careful with what gets what and when. Though relaitvely low performance platform

They can limit the capabilities of MICA for now

Or MICA IR short term

and remember the last time we got a new AAM system is was also not for all but more for most nations
