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

Which was built by Thyssen Henschel.

Even the turret and the shells ?

Keep the hull and don’t shoot anything if you want that.

So should the type 90 go to Germany because it has a German gun? Nonsense.

The point was is that it was a joint project…

I still can’t believe there are people that are against df105 going into french tree too.
Must be hard to read wikipedia.

This.

There is even “France” in the name of the project but somehow…

Anyway.

Sadly aircraft do not come around this quicky. Vehicles for the next major update have already been worked on for some time. Japan just received many vehicles at or above this rank last major with the Thai tree which was the intended replacement of the R2Y2 for CAS focused aircraft.

We don’t rule out other options coming around this rank and BR in the future. But for sure not in the next major update.

Vehicles being in the files don’t mean anything for the next major. That’s always been the case.

sure, but this one is on the Live client )))))
sadly since years…

You call that a replacement?

I think the question should be like this:

When will we get 3 Japanese domestic CAS planes, since 3 domestic Japanese CAS aircraft are removed.
Which brings the total of unique airframes down from 7 to 4 for Japan rank V and up.


3 unique vehicles down and we get 1 C&P American plane in return with a Thai skin… We also get a 0.7 br higher C&P plane in return.

dude… thats not how replacement works…

o7 popcorn has been put away

Honestly, I thought this Panhard would arrive in the 2 TTs (which wouldn’t have bothered me at all and would cut all drama, specially with the “funny” story of this vehicle), but seeing it arrive only for France reminds me of the DF105 in that it seems the hull is what Gaijin use to select the country where vehicles go.

Which makes me worry that the CLOVIS premium will only arrive for Germany, wich would add oil on fire on the DF105 similar case since France is always waiting after all thoses years the promised similar vehicle, either DF105 or advanced AMX13 105 type of vehicles fully made here.

Then why remove them in the first place??
Japan is already left behind, and the Thai vehicles could have been added a few years ago, since there is nothing unique about them.

Because it gives them the „we just added loads of planes to Japan“ argument so they can push back the F-2A even further

Clearly they are subverting expectations for the grand F-2A teaser reveal on thursday

Thats different circumstances.
.its a collaboration project between both nations and i agree france should get an alternative.
Same as how i find it ridiculous france still doesnt have a rank 7 premium… thats a bet i constantly lost.

Only thing i said that madseventens complained was unreasonable

“Thats different circumstances.”

Always using circumstances that goes alongside your story, hu ?

True, we’ll have to see
