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

Dev got a 8 GB update. anything new?

Today? I just checked the dev like 30 minutes ago and had no update.

mayby it was from yesterday.
i think i wasnt on it then.
But still was there something new?

In terms of additions, maybe.
In terms of how accurate these additions are?
I don’t want to begin.

Looks at Challenger 2, Brimstone, Tornado, Harrier, etc

ZTZ99A, VT-4A1, JH-7A, J-10A, ZBD04A, and many more…
It’s the same for all.

I don’t remember seeing anything new in the dev server since friday. I know some things were found in the files though like the AV-8S and some Japanese ship.

It doesn’t seem to have been mentioned here yet, the unused engine text ( F402-RR-406 (Rolls-Royce) ) corresponds to the AV-8B+ “Day Attack” which is not currently ingame:

This variant is not equipped w/ the FLIR camera or radar that are found on the models in WT, which use the ( F402-RR-408 ) engine.

It’s the Spanish !

Any bet’s it gonna go to Italy : P

NO 😭😭 it 's just hard to find good images of this specific variant, since they were replaced so quickly by the Night Attack and the Radar versions.

hmmm, could we be getting an early Harrier II update in the future mayhaps?

GR.5 and AV-8B would both be pretty welcome additions to both trees im sure

Anybody aware of rumours / file stuff on any domestic kit for Ra’am?

Would be a shame for it to all just be copy paste US stuff.

If this one doesn’t become an event vehicle, maybe. But we already have two researchable and a premium variant represented ingame.

They seem to be reluctant to add the Python-4 so I doubt itll get domestic weapons, afaik they use AMRAAMS a lot including on their 15s

I mean, It doesn’t really feel fair to make 2/3 of the american Harrier IIs premiums, the only issue is that the current Harrier line already has 3 (4 if you want to count folders) aircraft at rank VII…

I guess the A-10C could move up to rank VIII and the AV-8B could come as an aircraft to fill the 10.7 to 11.7 CAS gap that the US has

Just a shame to see no Derby (already on Barak II) or any domestic AGM / GBU’s.
