Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

It is. I agree Japan, along with most minor nations need TLC at top tier, especially in the SPAA department but I dont see how that justifies Japan getting the Yamato despite having the strongest naval in game already.

I dont main britian so I will take you word for it you still have one with missles and radar. Having a radar is a most at top tier the type 81 c is very limited because you are literally eyeballing for targets and trying not to mg to death. It is possible to get kills but man would a radar be nice

Because america got a stealth bomber that pretty much voids the type 81 c you do know the f-117 has lower infra-red signatture

you realise the F117 is a gimmick right? its gonna be trash, any spaa can shoot it down even with the reduction

Not a spaa that is literally eyeballing things and i bet it will be as hard to lock as helicopter is

How much time have you play in the typer 81 c be honest

Most dont use radar on the ADATS anyway and just use the IRST. Using the radar is just announcing to everyone in the air that there is a free kill.

Only nations that are doing “okay” at top tier with SPAA is France, Sweden and China.
USSR is obviously doing very well at the moment.
The other 6 nations are all in the same sinking boat when it comes to SPAA, Japan is arguably doing better than Italy and Israel currently, or at worst, the same.

We shall have to wait and see how the OSA does vs the F-117, but Im dreading dealing with it in the HVM that only has IRST

You wont see F-117 at top tier, only 10.0 ish

Again… Why does that mean Japan should get the Yamato?

Also, again, how is Japan alone in this issue?

and finally, just do what EVERYONE will do, spawn any fighter and shoot it out the sky without effort in seconds. F-117 is a meme aircraft but gunna be DOA to even the weakest CAS aircraft that it encounter in GRB

Its very situational spaa limited in almost everyway that the type 87 is a more valid spaa unit to take with you because it can actually defend itself on the ground has a radar and rwr

italy got the osa so will yes italy was in the boat the osa is still more playable thenm the type 81. Israel is pretty fucked to

Because we both know gaijin has no issue breaking meta so why is the yamato unreasonable

We shall have to wait and see how OSA performs, its gunna be a half decent SAM at 10,0. But I dont think it will translate to being a good top tier SAM, as its massive and the missiles are pretty weak.

Because Britain, France and Italy can barely take on Japan right now.

still better range the otomatic i would think

And japan is very popular in ground I literally have games with just japanese mains. Yeah the yamato would break meta gaijin has akready done that SOOO

Whole lot of rumor round up happening here I see…

You know how long the spike 2 has been out and gaijin refuses to add the chu -mpm for some reason

Maybe. SACLOS vs anything evading is hard work, its huge size means its easy to find and easy to kill with AGM-65 or KH-38, probably very killable via GPS weapon as well. Also only 6 missiles (12 with reload) its not a lot and I doubt it can intercept munitions like most nations can.

Using a 10.0 SAM kinda shows how weak Italy is at the moment though for top tier

I have no idea what that is

Im not disagreeing with that gaijin has broken ground it is only getting worse with morte and more jets as the spaa issue hasnt been fixed for several nations. Only russia has very complete range of spaa and they are also getting the osa

Its a japanese humvee ppretty much with spike 2s
