Well F-18C’s mach 1.02 supercruise speed when clean is modeled in War Thunder despite there not being sources.
Knowing enough tends to make rather accurate flight models.
I doubt performance is low-balled, especially when dogfights data is entirely public as well.
Mach ~2.3 is likely its top speed after all.
True true.
There is also the possibility F-22 are intentionally detuned to maintain opsec and allow allies to actually win. It has no real marketing impact bc f22 is congressionally blocked from exports
The figures I think are lowballed the most by official sources are mil power supercruise speed and true operating ceiling
well, in my opinion the current war thunder are monstrous, the f22 is completely unsuitable for the current top tier, the maps are too small, and you might as well have to carry bombs with the f22 to get the RP
And gaijin will also make whatever they want since they said report based on guesses will not be accepted, and they also do not accept classified documents.
no
+1 Obviously I want to see 5th generation aircraft like F-22, F-35, Su-57, but with the current maps it would be horrible, and we still don’t have F-18 SuperHonet, Su-35, Gripen E and J10C
its comin soon
So whats left to add after we reach the end? Or will they shutdown the game and develop war thunder 2 instead?
The implementation of 6th gen or adding early vehicles that has never made it into the game could be a possibility.
There’s still plenty of vehicles that can be added, from modern down through WW2 and interwar and even WW1 vehicles there’s tons of options. Just look at the suggestions here on the forums there’s loads left that can come.
If you think 130x130km is too small… lol We don’t even have munitions that can cross even half of that at normal flying altitudes.
@Ωκεανος
We’re currently on War Thunder 7.
There doesn’t need to be perpetual additions either.
There are still plenty of planes to bring in game, not only for top but previous tiers as well. So many variants…
But i do believe after they satisfy the ^hunger^ of the masses to play the next ^best plane in the world^ , they’ll bring some actual gameplay into the game.
They can even make campaign mode and sell campaigns like single player games with expansions etc.
I don’t think there will be WT 2 , for the next 5 years at least.
WW2 and early cold war vehicles won’t bring the money nor the hype that these leaked vehicles will bring.
War thunders entire update model for the past 8 years have been releasing new dangling vehicles to keep people playing.
People playing costs the company money.
The “update model” [not a thing] exists to support game development in a consistent manner.
Features, vehicles, etc.
Vehicles are not the goal of War Thunder. And infinite profit also isn’t the goal of War Thunder.
isnt that the same as 70 just inverted
i think this is what he meant (sorry for bad drawing). an F-22 can do this comfortably while staying in controlled flight according to what test pilot saw
it wouldn’t suprise me too much if other planes could do that, as they pretty much would only need a good enough TWR to sustain a 70* climb. If he meant pulling 110* to climb, that is impressive.
i think he means being able to maintain flight at that AoA which i dont think many planes can do, and the ones that can all must have TVC
