the thing is they could just add mode 2, it isnt LOAL, they in the same update could make it so it cant see through smoke by adding Chaff to the smoke like most nato tanks have, all it would give the missile is the ability to track through trees a bit better then what IR can
forgot to mention igla has proxy fuse removed
Not the T1 bl 5 and T2 bl 10. The F-15C MSIP II is often stated to be the closest US counterpart to them.

and that’s just A2A.
Definetly nothing that even comes close to the “heavy” multirole aircraft that the F-15E or Su-34 are going to be without Rafale or Typhoon to compete. Probably Gripen E as well.
It even time for Gaijin to remove a certain stick and give the Gripens their centre line A2G weapons to help close the gap a tiny bit as they make poor multiroles (though decent swing-role)
(and thats not even mentioning things like A2G radar)

Like my thoughts about this update:
T77E1 - it’s a 3.7 SPAA. kinda the only place I wanted a new SPAA.
(US) Skink - Well I don’t fully agree with this, as it feels like they gave into US wining. And the Americans trying to justify are even worse. “it uses some US parts” People are some of the worst, hope they like anything with an L7 and Rolls Royce going to the UK. but even then the Skink program was to make a “Marskmen turret” for the Sherman. If the Skink made it to production it would have just been a bunch of turrets to be shipped to the UK and those who wanted it(including the US) but that didn’t happen so only Canada and the UK used it.
(UK) Ram II - This I’m really excited for as I can make proper line-ups with things it would have served with if it made it to the front lines. Tho I will have to decide if I want to use something a bit less likely or up-tier it for the Churchill III. It will also have at least half of the correct name for the thing.
Scimitar - I don’t have a lot to say about this, just I’m excited it’s coming and will probably switch my UK research to it.
OSA - More SPAA is always nice, and the UK will be useful for the few times I’d play up there.
Dutch Leos- Well I don’t hate they are in the game, I hate how they came to the game. They should have been in an independent BeNeLux tree or at least a sub-tree rework should have happened first. If I ever get them I’ll be using them in a thematic Dutch/BeNeLux line-up.
As for the other ground vehicles that I can’t remember off the top of my head, I’m happy for the nations getting them.
For Air, I don’t really care about what is coming bar one plane:
F-117, I’m fully aware they will be bad but that only makes me want it more. It is a meme plane and I love meme vehicles. I’ll be switching my squad research right away and properly going to use this user skin: WT Live // Camouflage by GameQuotient802
As for naval, I’m not an active naval player so I can’t comment.

For me this update:
Tornado Gr4 is a nice QoL upgrade over the Tornado Gr1 for Sim, but the BR is a major concern. In GRB its not worth even mentioning without a major decompress or more buffs for it
RWRs look visually nicer, but the nerfs/changes to how they function have me… concerned.
Scimitar, its nice to finally see it, but will probably rarely use it considering the BR is not one I play much and I cant stand GRB at the moment at any BR
Naval, real disapointment. HMS Repulse is just a downgrade over anything else we already have and only really of benefit to those that dont have HMS Renown from the Event. Its a shame we’ve gotten another 6.7 and another battlecruiser instead of what was needed which was a 7.0 or maybe even 7.3 battleship. (france looks to be the same from what little i’ve seen from their update)
Perfect oppotunity to get a load of other buffs and fixes in for other vehicles as well and not a single thing appears to be fixed for Britains top tier aircraft, tanks or naval. Nothing.

In a way I’m glad for this as it means exactly what you’ve stated. More Gen 4.5s to give parity which means we’ll leapfrog faster and to me that’s good news as that means F-2 faster. I also think it’s good for the game because the sooner we have these advanced aircraft the sooner the focus can shift over to other facets of the game.

I feel like we are gonna see a Iran & Iraqi sub trees after this world war mode because it’s what they’ve done with Israel. As they were WWM exclusives then gaijin added them as a nation later.

Like they got the tech, they got the flags all that needs them to do is to add them to whatever nation they sees fit
Like WWM : Chinese farm was in June 2020 and the Israeli tree came out in October 2021
So what about the CAS capability that the F-15I lacks? Since F-15E can get 229, then F-15I should also get AGM142/AGM65D.

Without 229s, sure, Eurofighter and Rafale are more powerful than the F-15. WITH 229s and the F-15 is about equal, being able to kinematically defeat any missile fired at you is plain overpowered without counters.
This also only applies to earlier variants, it’s not like I’m asking for an FR.4 at 13.7.

i think spice bomb is way to go, agm142 is a bit much and it never used mavericks
US mains complain:
Gaijin:
“We’ll fix this issue ASAP, we are so sorry we did this to you”
Other nations complain:
Gaijin:
“Who are you again?”

It doesn’t matter. It’s better than nothing.
The issue is we should receive those jets NOW if 229 F-15s are to be added, how will other nations compete if some of them can’t even reliably engage outside of 20km.
