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


5km away from a ship ,the ship is still small… i don’t think it would be like this in reality

Is it something that will be added at a later date? Seems a shame to remove the defining feature of the missile

I mean, this time around we got several major mechanic updates and a new Nuclear Thunder event should be just around the corner.

@Morvran Called it, the ALARM won’t be getting its loiter mode.

the Tornado RET.8 and Tornado GR1 have incredibly similar loadouts, with the GR1 having an arguably better CAS loadout with 4 FNF AGMs where as the RET.8 lacks any form of FNF weapons outside of GNSS

both Planes have only 2 AIM9Ls for defence

the only real advantage the RET.8 has is the newer countermeasure pods allowing a mix of Chaff and Flairs instead of just Chaff and the slightly stronger Mk103 engines vs the Mk101 engines of the GR1

I see no reason why the GR1 cant just go to 11.7 like the RET.8 with a limited ALARM loadout like this meaning to take 5 you lose all other CAS so you get 1 more missile to counteract the advantages the RET.8 has.

This also serves to balance out the 11.3 tornados since the GR1 was arguably the best as it had FNF weapons, like @Rzi4628-live said we already have the F-111C at 11.3 that fills that CAS bracket so we lose nothing for doing this, we instead lose access to ARMs for the 11.7 lineup that most nations have access to if we don’t do this

i could try again but ive given up

dang

im hoping they rethink there decision on this as it is very fustraating.

smin said its under investigation so im just gonna wait it out hope i can on monday, in the meantime i have a vickers mk7 2 abrams 2 t72s and a t90 to grind

haha same grinding the amx-30 105

literally the excuse that the rest of the plane isnt suited for 11.7 is so dumb when if you want to use the plane at all in ground it need to be up brd to 11.7, not to mention again the GR1 has arguably the best CAS loadout of any tornado ignoring the GR4

idk how long until the update but if i focus i should be able to grind out everything i need before the t90 might be a bit of a pain however

For sure good luck tho

yeah, the only reason im not to annoyed is the PGM’s are getting a buff which will be nice

The vickers i can get done fairly quick the abrams i only need the sep and sepv1 but the t90 is gonna be a bit more of a pain



pretty much I guess I have to use those like ARMs since we wont have any kind of ARMs outside of 12.3 which is so dumb when things like the Su22 get 2 at 11.0 but hey we cant get 3-5 at 11.7

also the mantlet buff the challenger 2s got isnt on the challenger 3 lmao it really is the worst challenger 2 lmaooo

no you dont get it they got the name wrong its not the challenger 3 its the challenger 1.3
