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

Day 8 (it’s past 12am for me now) advocating Gaijin not to split SG vehicles up.

Honestly I’m getting more and more hopeless with it, I’m just huffing dangerous amounts of copium atp. Hopefully tmr’s dev stream wont disappoint.

We already have Su-24M,the base one have upgrade for it

Fully capable is perhaps an incorrect term for it. It was documented that it was planned and intended to arm F-14D with AIM-120As, but was cancelled (went with the LANTIRN integration instead).

The fact that we have documented plans for it should be sufficient for Gaijin. It’s up to them if they want to add it or not to keep it distant from the F-14B.

You do know that irl abrams crews have been reoorted reloading the gun in 3-4 second intervals right? The 5 secind reload for expert crews in of itself are already generous to other nations

I can’t really see the reason why it would?

3BM60 at 500m which is on the lower penning side so please again tell me the Abrams has a worse survivability then the 3TD

i mean the new radar 7P and 9M should be enough for it

AIM-120A would push it into a BR where it would be DOA anyway

What weapons was the J-22 carrying in the trailer?

Which BR would it be with 7P and 9M? Below or the same BR as the F/A-18C Early?

13.3

And yes the premium Su-30 exists. It can definitely survive at 13.3 with AIM-120s

Probably not happening since according to Gaijin it does nothing since ERA-Bypass is not going to be implemented.

Love that you showed this because it shows a massive issue with the abrams front plate as it has 650mm of ken protection shown in multiple eu analytical reports

probably stay 13.0 tbh

only reason F-14B is there is BOL + Phoenix, with 14D retains

Probably 13.3. But with AMRAAM (hopefully) then 13.7 most likely.

If the F-14D gets six AIM-120As as it was planned in the SAC, it should do okay-ish at 13.3 like F-16A ADF.

The only thing it holds back is its dated airframe and unchanged powerplant.

Definitely not with the F/A-18C Early being at 12.7 lol

I meant if it wouldn’t get the AIM-120.

if the Abrams ever got its LFP armour it needs to lose the 5 second reload thats just how it is

This would be an amazing pfp

issue with the F-16A was the lack of TWS and CM count, neither of which F-14 suffers from

it’d probably be in a better place at 13.0 with the 9M/7P, F-14B is probably slightly overtiered (thanks phoenix) and F-15A is very undertiered

F-15A equivalent with 7P+9M, but then Phoenix is still a thing

I mean only the new Trophy Abrams getting M829A3 (so not the current SEPv2) could be okay since it would compensate for the significant hit in mobility this new Abrams is taking.

Not saying it should happen, I’m just saying it could happen without being massively unbalanced.
