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

And I suppose the Buc S1 has enough bombs for defensive bombing + a base kill. More than the f-117

yes… it do

like we are comparing the F-117 to one of the worst planes tier for tier in the game, and it’s coming off worse

Yep, though only really needs airspawn back to really fix

We have no idea how useful or useless the F-117’s stealth will be because we don’t know how Gaijin will model it.

Due to the secretive nature of aircraft stealth, it’s likely that Gaijin will be fudging a lot of the statistics because representing them accurately would be… let’s say, impossible to do legally.

It might sound crazy, but I think it’s probable that Gaijin will borrow a page from the Ace Combat games when it comes to stealth. In those games, stealth aircraft are detected by radars at shorter distances and take longer to lock with IR.

For example, each generation of stealth aircraft or LO features could offer a progressively larger buff in this category.

Even though WT is a game with the objective of realism, I think they should take this method, or a variation on it, for no reason other than to preempt players leaking classified government docs on stealth

Are you developer, to say it wouldn’t be British?
😸

Would make an excellent event tank for Britain. Either that or the challenger falcon.

Britain does lack a crewless turret tank

Do you happen to have the link to that? If you do please send it.

Hello, could Romania on it’s National Day (1st December) get the IAR 316B available for sale?

No, but there is no precedent for it. The only nation that it makes sense to operate it is the US, and they already have their own tech tree.

Likely tomorrow. Gaijin hates Monday as well.

It’d be something new players buy before realising it’s gimmicky in War Thunder.

I’ll always love it though

well considering the Brits had absolutely zero involvement in it they have no reason to get it, like literally zero involvement

Agreed… teaser dropping on Thursday, Dev Server during weekend, etc… would mean there would either be just a few days of Dev Serveer before the release, or that the update would release a week well into November.

I really hope we get it tomorrow xD.

The sooner the better, im bored.

Same… and even though there’s still nothing for me even on the Leak Lists, I still hope that there will be something still not included on these; also looking forward for the graphical improvements and potential sound updates when it comes to engines, as well as unlisted bug fixes, etc (particularly regarding modern MBTs and Naval Top Tier).

I can somewhat excuse them getting things like the Bhisma because it’s from the Commonwealth and it’s been established they’ll get things from the Commonwealth nations however in the case of the Cent LPT they not only had no involvement in the development but also it’s not a vehicle from a Commonwealth nation it just happened to have used a old Cent mk.5 hull as it was planned to be offered to countries that were using the Centurion still, meanwhile it had been out of British service for more than 20 years when the Cent LPT was made by a American company

There will be a moment when we will receive graphical changes…
