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

Yep, we do, which is a gap I think the f18 would bodge for us. But I could see it come either as TT or SQV. We are due an SQV at some point

Yeah, funny how 1 out of 10 nations got trialed stuff, if no nations has got any biases then I would like to see the Trialed F-15 and Hornet for the Germany tree please x D

If anyone is due for an SQV it’s France, Italy and Israel

As long it take inside the crazy pool of funny vehicles to add and not major/important ones…

I always see the Amx30 DFC, a stealth variant, as a perfect choice for squadron vehicle for ground:

We have more event vehicle that squadron, wich is sad because event make them FOMO most of the time, while Squadron you can take your time but everybody can have them.

Its an offer currently. And considering the F111K if there was a want for a Gripen E in the TT its not unlikely a Indian Gripen E Maritime could be added. Rn to my knowledge no Gripen Maritimes have been produced but i also just don’t care enough about a naval model

Israeli squadron Lavi

Is it possible to add the Royal Thai Air Force F/A-18C/D to War Thunder?

The RTAF had originally agreed to pay $392 million for the F/A-18s, but had only made one initial payment of $74.5 million when the Thai economy crashed. This downpayment will not now be refunded to Thailand.

The US Congress has now approved supplemental funding to enable the US Marine Corps to buy the eight aircraft originally ordered by Thailand. An additional $272.5 million will be provided to buy the F/A-18s, which are already in production at Boeing

True, top tier IFV for France will likely be an SQV

thats not a thai aircraft

Oh and speaking of biases, why Italy the only nations without a squadron vehicle ?

Yeah, you are right, F-35B is a naval jets, but not a USN jet like that the F-4J

Everytime someone asks they skip them for another update

its like the av-8 correct? operated by the marines off carriers?

be happy about that

Eh, it’s akin to the Jag and T-2, Lots of AOA, so can psudo turn fight in a 1 circle. It’s certianly not a brick like the Tornados, Harriers, and to a lesser extent the Phantoms.

Brazil seems to be the primary customer now, so I think I’d rather see a Brazilian one in the Swedish tree if anything

It’s still a missile bus

They better not, since the TT is so empty in that case…

Or at least not before we got more in the TT.

I’m just sick of this now he claimed staff have no biases towards nations but yet we only have one nation with trialed and another without a squadron vehicle. That there is bias
