Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Ha you didn’t even face Pantsir’s missile with bomb loaded Tornado.
YOU DOESN’T DESERVE TO TALK ABOUT THIS TOPIC.

the thing I seen was, one of the big reasons we didnt buy into the original project was because it was classed as a black project

since you wanna look at stats, according to your own the tornado is better than the f16c

80% of my F-16C games have been played in ARB and 90% of my Tornado games have been played in GRB.

yeah i do because i play cas and know how the tornado flies and thats all i need to know

How arrogant!

It’s made as a multirole platform meant to carry out strikes in an evolved role of the F-111 while carrying better self defense weaponry like fox 3s, it has internal structural reinforcements to allow it to carry larger payloads, you can expect it to be about 1.5 tonnes heavier than the 15C, you can however carry all the air to air weaponry of the 15C without conformal fuel tanks and go fully air to air like the picture below (it has no CFTs but you can see the belly rings meant to carry the fox 3s), its radar is also better than the current ones on the 15Cs but not by that much, the main addition on the radar are air to ground modes. I expect we’ll get a slightly earlier variant which retains the -220 engines like on the 15C so its thrust to weight will be worse, but someday we should get the -229 version which should give it a lot more thrust that approaches the 15EX and that particular version of the 15E should be more competitive

Pretty sure.

At this rate im gonna have to wait for Gaijin to run out of C&P sub trees to add, before any indigenous/ modified Hungarian ground or air tech gets added in those subsequent updates. And another ten years before the Monarchy’s ships get added.

A subtree for china, Korea for US, Iran for Russia, one of Japan…4 so, maybe in 2026 we gonna get some new assets added to the game in the form of major updates? Truly a copy-and-paste apocalypse.

So, does that mean US can get a Eurofighter?

The US got it’s own fighters to suck on, the UK got nothing via domestically or commonwealth like I’ve said it would be the same reason as the AJ

Sounds like double standards to me.

If you’ve not noticed yet, the trend of update blogs, teasers and releases has been at later and later dates over time, not surprised

Was just about to say that…

Maybe gaijing wants to reduce the amount of updates to 4

so with about 15 battles in the f16 you got about 100 kills, and in about 55 battles in the tornado you got about 120 kills (I rounded in your favor btw). This gives us slightly under 7 kills per battle for the f16 and slightly over 2 kills per battle for the tornado, however as you used the f16 mainly in ARB i will lover its kill per battle to just 6, as im sure you killed ground units in them.

This gives us a 3 times more killls per battle, which is indeed impressive but you are forgetting that the f16 is 4 BR brackets higher than the tornado which SHOULD indeed give it a greater effectiveness.
