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

Well the stingray is interesting and so are ifvs with atgms which japan does have one that is native. I agree the main issue is most of the thai tanks will not be given to japan. Or at least I dont see them because you will likely not see a chinese mbt with thailand if it is given to japan. And a t84 likely not seen in a thaliand tree… The american v-100 and v-150 might be interesting.

But the main issue is air and lack of spaa systems, Most of the tanks that could be added from thailand to japan lack of top tier are not great in terms of what a type 10 can do , We functional need a good spaa system maybe more capable ifvs and wheeled or track. And some more helicopters to japan which I think thaliand might actually help there.

probably. bit of a weird name for it.

also dont use hit analysis on the stormer, shit freezes your pc

I might expect gajin implemented GBU-54 LJDAM for 4 aircraft in rank 8

  • A-10C
  • AV-8B+ (Italian Navy & USMC)
  • F-16AM Block 15 MLU (Belgian) from france tech tree
  • F-16C Block 50

But I predict F-15E from dev server never mounted GBU-54(V)1/B Laser JDAM before under RMP (Radar Modernization Program) in the 2010’s

I might worried gajin forgot GBU-54 LJDAM for these aircraft rank 8 before this major update drop to main server 😔

It analyzes radar signals that allow the automatic programming of HARM missiles in-flight to the radar signal you want to launch the HARM onto.

HARMs require specific radar signals to lock onto.

So this thing is necessary to use HARMs?

They did make changes days ago, apparently just to make cobra harder to do.

No, but otherwise, they have to, say before flight, they have to write a program in to the HARM amuntion to say: frequency = K, signature = xxx to guide it for Pantsir, with this thing, they can just lock and launch, which essentially is writing the program but to the specific radar detected and write in the program in the air.

All SPAA and TDs, plus tanks with dumb rockets (Cromwell Tulip, RBT-7 etc)

There is a suggestion report currently open on this.

SD-10 = PL12 man

They just had to, lol they could have given everyone a SD10 rather than saying ‘oh they are the exact same’

SD-10 maneuvrability same AIM-120C and PL-12 but range shorter

SD-10 is the export name for PL12.

Jf17 = export for pakistan ergo it gets SD-10

Same story as R-77 and RVV AE on J11s

SD is the same missile as PL12

SD-10A Better the early russian active radar homing medium-range Air-to-Air Missile but close to AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-4

I might hope gajin add AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-4 for next major update or the first major update 2025. and PL-12 & SD-10A equivalent

literally wasnt the point but sure

SD10 was never called ‘PL12’ cause no one, including Gaijing can prove they are same missile. ‘According to official specifications, the PL-12 has a range of between 44 and 62 miles, reduced to 37-44 miles for the export-configured SD-10.’ I am trying to find the source to this, but somewhere they did state a clear range reduction between PL12 and SD10. I think this range measurement is not the max range present in game.
Oh yeah, just to note, in this year’s air show, the fact that SD10 is different to PL12 is even more cemented as PL12AE appeared, so PL12 actually has its own export variant.

in wt its the same missile, thats what its about

I was saying they should give all Chinese jets now ‘SD10’ so that later they can actually add PL12 without nerf, meaning it works a little better without having to create a massive gap. Anyway, misunderstanding solved.

Or you know… The typhoon
