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

People need to pick a new edge case plane. My suggestion is the XF5U since the devs may or may not count a tiny hop on taxi test as flight.

So can we expect the final release of the development blog for CTWV(ICV)? I can’t wait to learn more about this vehicle.
In fact, CTWV(RCV)was the only vehicle lacking a devblog in the last major update.

Why is the distribution of Adders off-center and weighted heavily to the left? I saw these before and it always struck me as extremely odd. All the Alamo’s are centered but the Adder’s aren’t

when you see the name “russia” dont ask more questions lol

Yeah, both Su-34 and F-15E are capable of carrying 8 Fox-3s

EDIT: Is the F-15E able to carry more AIM-120s? All photos I’ve seen have been of the Advanced Eagle.

For the regular F-15E from the 90s/early 2000s I don’t believe so, p sure it’s an F-15EX/Upgraded/Advanced Eagle F-15E thing only

i think carrying 12 missile maybe not a major problem for early version

Can’t believe I missed the Dunkerque blog, ah well. Looking absolutely beautiful.

I wonder which line of the tech tree it’ll be at the end of… with my luck, the one I don’t have finished.

Strike eagle don’t have outboard wing pylons. So 8 missiles only.

Im personally betting on after Bretagne

Everywhere I look the max number of AMRAAAMs is 8, that changes with the EX

I’ve seen a lot of EX propagational material featuring quad-missile mounts on wings and twin-missile mounts on conformal tanks

EDIT: My bad, the plane on the pictures is a F-15C, but still, the F-15EX boasts an impressive amount of missiles coming at 12

This is single seater on photo. It cannot be EX

A single F15EX is capable of destroying the entire enemy team… I dont think Gaijin will add this… if it wee russian on the other hand…

I think it will come eventually, it’s at least a year away, ex is one of the most modern combat jets ever made even more modern than f22. So the game can change a lot with things like introduction of e warfare. I reckon we will see silent eagle sooner tho

After F-111F

F/A-18C wouldnt bring you any A2G anyway
