AMX-10RC had a full blown 105mm cannon for a recce vehicle and you’re concerned with a puny mg turret

BTR-60 as a silly 1.0 spaa/LT

Ah yes. “French Archer”.

That is either arty, or it’s gun folds.

Sure can, but I have a feeling they don’t feel like doing it.

I’m not concerned about the firepower, I am concerned about the fact that they put a needlessly tall remote MG turret on a vehicle that you ideally would want to be as small as possible

Can you confirm or deny that Russia is getting the R-77-1 missile this patch? @Smin1080p_WT

So there needs to be no reason to add EFT, Rafale, Su-30 and J-20 to US other than ppl wanting it?

Metal pipe with wings

As i said we live in an era where because a vehicle is smaller means almost nothing for today reco tech.

Kinda looks like a giant balloon animal

There’s no reason the Saudi EF couldn’t be considered, same with most of those vehicles, just not the J-20 as there isn’t another user for it

that was earlier concept for 1 recce vehicle to be small,
nowadays you have a light recce vehicle (based on SUV-like platforms), and larger one with myriad of sensor suites/jammers + defensive armaments

I just don’t see what the actual benefit is. If i wanted RAF and British made jets, I’d play Britain. If I wanted MiG and Sukhois and Soviet/Russian air force stuff, I’d play USSR.

But a Saudi EFT to US or some Su-30 doesn’t fit or make sense at all, same with super hornet in UK tree.

We haven’t said anywhere there will or won’t be new missiles of any kind this major. However until we make an announcement, there is nothing particularly to comment on. Stay tuned.
