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

The leaks are making this update look very mid IMO, the fourth SPAA for Britain in as many updates, another French occilating turreted tank that isn’t an AMX-13-105, nothing Thai ground wise, no F-2, F-18 that is going to be mid on arrival, and another 152/155 class sph before Italy or UK have gotten a domestic sph. Oh and Harry Hopkins so people can have more 1.0 2pdr armed tanks to choose from.

Like don’t get me wrong the Rapier and Clovis are going to be nice, but jeez it’s looking a little bleak otherwise.

Can I ask how much sleep you actually have ?

??? what

The March update is usually pretty mid, I mean have a look at previous March updates they’ve never been all that great, June and December are the big big updates, the rest are much more hit or miss.

F-18E compared to F-18C gets AESA radar and 2 more missiles in return for worse TWR, worse climbrate, worse turn-rate, and worse acceleration. If F-18E still gets the same missiles (AIM-120A and AIM-9M) is it a sidegrade or upgrade despite worse flight model?

It’s a question, as I have around 14 hours on a day off and I’m on 20 comments

Isn’t the irst in a pod or something for the super hornet ?

i just type fast i guess. not one for big essays

We’ve got very little to go on. There will certainly be more in store, even Gszabi said the leak list is incomplete

integrated on fuel tank

I’m aware, but this is bland-mid, there’s nothing really quirky in these lists, like I’m glad that there’s more WW2 stuff and SAMs getting added, but F-18 has never really intrested me, and the lack of AMX-13-105 and F-2 is getting slightly rediculous

I’ve seen guesses from 1.7-2.3 for it, either way, WW2 ground thing I’m happy.

Honestly IRST is pretty annoying in its current state, generally more of a hinderance than help

this is very good advanced IRST, 2010s tech.

also, if you dont like it you can eject it since its part of fuel tank

Just need the tank that was made by the London, Midland and Scottish railway now lol

Shouldn’t? maybe. Will? definitely.

If there is one thing they dislike is easy braindead RP/SL farms. Just look at the reward nerfs that happened in air sim over the years.

Oh well, they might have problems to make that putting the fuel tank add the irst too.

But anyway for now irst is not that great sadly so with irst taking some performances of the plane it will be better not to take it until it’s fixed.

Teterach is 1.0, they’re incredibly similar if I’m remembering right so I doubt they’d be any different br wise.
