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

Glad to hear its at least being considered, could we maybe see it in the dev if it does need it or will it require base game testing as well?

You know how many actual South African, Indian or British vehicles they could be adding to the british TT instead of russian tech?

Is google lying to me?

Unlikely seeing as how there are quite a few strategic bombers that could be added even with the game as it currently is that haven’t been. US could go as far as the early B-52s, yet we haven’t gotten anything beyond the Cannaberra, which is a shame.

I hope it isn’t just there to annoy air player’s we need it in ground rb

Yes, it is. Mk.4 and Mk.5 (which SA didn’t operate iirc, not sure) had the filters.

If it helps anything, it’s 20 GBU-39s, 5 hardpoints total for smart munitions on the fuselage. But these glide bombs have very small warheads and in this case are solely GPS guided, so it’s not going to be a big threat against tanks, but SPAA who don’t move at all might be in more trouble.

Personally I would probably end up running 5 GBU-31s instead, that it likely also gets to carry. Much larger splash radius. At least the SDBs could be more useful to the A-10C though, if it gets them.

New afterburner effect about time

9 will be the starting point.

Is the F-15E getting the SDB ??

Sounds like an excuse. Users have a question: “In this update, there will be a plane for Germany, which will be an analogue of the already shown planes for other countries.” To this question you have only two answers - Yes/No, and that’s it

This is a South African domestic modification.

I don’t care, it doesn’t belong in the british tree

Litening II very likely. Gaijin seems to be allergic to modelling new pods. Anyways, Litening II (as is implemented) and Litening III would perform (almost…?) exactly the same in game.

He has never once answered a question like this.

What about the Indian T-90?

That shouldnt be in the british tree either. Same goes for the Bison
