Major Update “Air Superiority” - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 4)

There’s so many falcons US could use too.

AIM-4A-G, AIM-26 (Nuclear falcon LOL), AIM-47 (SARH Phoenix)

Check out this video (9:16)

They had fully automated A2A rocket systems (that would calculate lead to destroy enemy bombers) IDK how it could be implemented in-game, but an EEGS like system for rockets would be very fun imo

Imo the earlier falcons have no proximity fuse, and reliability that DNE in war thunder aside, the lack of a proxy fuse means that players who are aware of their six can quickly dodge them. But if there is an option to carry them, I think they are always worth a try.

Yes, and there is 4 launchers version

Spoiler


FIM-92E, and ATAS also lack proximity fuses yet they’re functional. I think they’d work okay

Also AIM-4s apparently had decent maneuverability, some documents show as high as 25g for late models

This looks awfully close to the configuration of an AFT09
But anyways, Japan could always do with some wheeled IFVs, but they do have their own project, the CCV(I think that is how it is called)
Also, what are these missiles? They look like AT-4(gotta use the nato reporting there) or the HJ-8.

Putting those aircraft in would be really cool, the F-106 should’ve been in the game YEARS AGO
But they’re all flare-less and have to fight some pretty good missiles

Many 9.0-10.0 aircraft are flareless, I think they would fit in okay (especially with some BR decompression gaijin PLS)

(The entire US rank 6 tech tree with the exception of the F8U-2 and AV8-C are flareless)

I wonder how much controversy there would be if Japan get the VT-4. I am not sure if it would cause less riots than giving Japan full korean sub tree. Lol.

That doesn’t change what I said. Flare-less aircraft from 1954 shouldn’t be seeing AIM-9Ls in normal ARB.

Yeah it sucks, but at least the century series craft were suited to high altitude, thus wouldn’t be as at-risk against Su-25s and A-10s

From what it sounds like nothing new for the UK has been added to the Dev server yet.

It’ll probably be a 2nd dev server or last-minute addition

Still not a single sign of it

Of course they are the problem, giving the fact that new top tier MBT’s will have even more armour. Reload speed is correct. About the armor of Leclerc or any other NATO tank, i’m sure that most of the players knows that they are artificialy nerfed. Leclerc could be the tank with the strongest shell in the game but hey, only selected nations in the game can have competetive machines.

M8 honestly if it doesn’t come I will scream

Too bad ARB only happens on the deck, meaning unless you want to sit by and let the enemy win via killing ground targets you have to risk getting hit by up to 4 AIM-9Ls per A-10
