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

literally everyone is talking about how it’s in every sense of the word a bad add, it’s only benefits will be

  • Ground Battles due to harder radar detection + no name tag
  • Sim Battles
  • Testing Stealth

and it’s not really even gonna be GOOD in those first 2, just not unusable like it will be in air

Sure man, you are smarter than every radar system developer who writes that their AESA is X-band

Because the F-117 has a lot of star power owing to being the first operational stealth “fighter”, and people thought it would never be added. Honestly, kinda weird it isn’t the vehicle for Dreams Come True. Would be a perfect fit for the event.

now if it was the naval one that they proposed… THEN THIS DISCUSSION WOULD BE DIFFERENT. But it’s not.

remember that there are already AESA and PESA based SAMs above 10.3 that will negate some of the stealth to the point where it doesn’t matter anymore

Pantsir ASRAD and ITO will have an easy time with it, and that means it has no advantages for ground

I doubt they would add the 18C and 15E to the US in the same update.

The 18s are probably saved for the december update.

If that’s the call for it, it’s GRB BR is going to need to be higher, or it’s going to be a more cancerous than the A-6E TRAM days at 10.0. The reason why it has to go higher is it’s going to be really tough to acquire with SAM’s, and anyone with two braincells flying it will stay at least 3-5km above the battlefield at all times.

the F/A-18 is gonna be saved for likely a naval fighters update

Which means with a whopping 3 new jets, you can give most nations a new top tier plane
F/A-18 can be given to U.S., U.K., Italy, Germany, Sweden all through various nations they already posses in game

The Mig-29K for Russia

and then for China the J-15 I guess? although russian players would have a heart attack

It’s weaker than the Jaguar Gr1A in GRB. Won’t be lower than 8.7 in air imo and in sim won’t suddenly make it god tier. Id hunt and kill them with total ease in the Sea Vixen let alone Sea Harrier FA2. Remember night battles don’t exist and it will be easy to visually spot
