issue with the vikhr is the fact you need to fly straight at your target almost because gaijin doesnt seem to be able to comprehend the russians ever used tgps
yeah but the situation we were talking about was if the enemy had no AA, in that situation you will get more kills in a pass with the Su25 then the tornado
With the F-15E coming in the upcoming Firebirds update, I think it’s a missed chance from Gaijin to not include the LANTIRN navigation pod with FLIR that renders an IR image onto the HUD.
It might be unneeded in the game, but it would be fun.

The E airframe is about 3~ Tons heavier if my memory Serves me right
They are Significant, VERY Significant.
The F100-PW-220 Engines Produce a Afterburning Thrust of 8401.2 kgf each, Giving a total Power Output of 16802.4 kgf.
The F100-PW-229’s on the other hand, Produce a whopping 10522.4 kgf of afterburning thrust Each , with both engines providing a combined 21044.8 kgf of afterburning thrust.
That is a Flat out 25.25% Increase in Total Afturburning thrust. That is a MASSIVE difference.
If you get to fly the F-15I Ram at any point, go try it out, im sure you’ll instantly feel the massive difference that 25% makes, especially when accelerating past 1.5 mach

I asked Gszabi abt this, apparently this change affects it 's Stinger 's since it could already use it 's guns as an NPC.
Similar changes:

also the number shown on the xray is not the flat number as it will change depending on altitude and other factors i belive there are ways to show the number but i have no idea how to do it
AV-8B (DA) from USMC might be researchable vehicle in rank 7 after A-7 Corsair II group but battle rating for air & ground mode lower A-10C and AV-8B Night Attack. my guess
None target designator pod, 4th gen IR AAM and GPS guided munitions
Would be rank 7

Hugin no longer has torpedoes when stock (?)
Kim Qui no longer has an unusable radar module.
Gay Archer now has an unusable radar module.
Amagi 's statcard weight has been corrected.
Emile Bertin 's catapult floatplane has been changed from GL-832 HY to Loire 130C. Primauguet is now the only ship which has GL-832 as scoutplane.
The 57mm gun on the Ki-102 now has a Practice Tracer belt, 27mm penetration at 10 metres.
Chinese and German AHEAD -type rounds no have double the shrapnel count, and the scatter cone has been reduced from 20 degrees to 12 degrees. Airburst fuze can now be toggled.
The majority of Shrapnel, HE-TF, and HE-VT shells between 40mm and 155mm calibre now have togglable airburst fuzes.
AMX 40 and Vextra 105 have moved from Rank 6 to Rank 7, Leclerc S.1 and Leclerc S.2 have moved from Rank 7 to Rank 8.
Some tanks w/ unguided rockets as additional weapon, ex. Calliope and Magach Hydra, can now build reload boxes on the battlefield.
I made a mistake yesterday, the unused text for AV-8B+ Day Attack engine came from it being replaced from use on the currently ingame AV-8B+ Night Attack, which now has it 's correct engine text displayed ingame.

Hey @Smin1080p_WT
I have a question regarding the new WIP profile, specifically the “nukes droped” section. Will this only include new nukes after this feature is added or will it also include nukes droped before the feature was added?

Figured, thanks for the quick response but it would be a right shame if old nukes are not counted :D

I mean, I just added that on. It’s not like they didn’t dedicate an entire section of a post to it.
