Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

I mean, we could give it the IRIS T it actually uses if you’d prefer, but there is a difference between additions based on necessity and additions based on avarice

Every single example you gave was because without those features there would be missing capability that would have an adverse effect on gameplay.

That wouldn’t be the case with the US getting Meteors and ASRAAMs, given that you have the AIM-9X and soon enough the AIM-260 which do the same thing

I think it’s fair to say we should remain realistic when reasonable, and only bend the rules when it would cause unnecessary frustration not to.

Thank you so much for responding, totally understandable.

Is there anything else coming for new Italian Tornado?

The aircraft will have more advanced GBUs over the standard IDS 1995.

Any chance that we can nudge for a Early/Late split on the rapier for this patch with a impact fuse version at a lower BR? AFAIK it wouldnt require a new model as the missiles on the current one are post upgrades missiles from the late 80s onwards.

Made a suggestion for it in the dev server forum. Think it would be lovely to get more use out of the long awaited vehicle.

Feedback has already forwarded. But at the moment there is no news.

Damn.

The J-11B now has a researchable TGTP, which means potentially new A2G

Thanks for the update on that. Sorry for messaging a lot, I have a bit of an IRL issue going on and trying to keep my mind off it (those who remember last patch I had issues for my dog stopping me from pushing/researching reports, well, today is the day sadly).

Again, cheers, I really like rapier and glad to know the idea is at least being noticed ^^. Heck I would even pay money for it xD

@Smin1080p_WT Could you comment on this please in regard to the J-11B, would it be reasonable to expect either the J-8s or J-11s be foldered?

@Smin1080p_WT So why does the HAC gets both ATAS, Mistral and rockets for its outer pylons after one dev server patch when the UHT has been waiting literally years for them at this point? It’s just salt in the wound…

Hello

If you have the report links for these suggestions, we can give them a nudge.

@Smin1080p_WT any news about F/A-18A getting aim-7P? cause F/A-18C Early have it at the same br so maybe F/A-18A will also get it

sorry to bother you,
can su-30mki come this version?
after all ,uk’s air tree haven’t receieved anything until now.
and many uk players like me are welcomed to see this.

An aircraft is planned already for this major update for the British tree. However it’s not the Su-30.

It’s not currently planned for the A variant.

TBH it would be better to wait for more unique missile options before the UK gets the MKI, we’d currently be missing out on the ASRAAM, Astra, and potentially MICA, which would all make the aircraft much more interesting

thanks for you reply.
hope that aircraft is not premium…

Update cockpit F/A-18A & F/A-18C Early (USN) and F/A-18C (Finnish) ?

Hopefully F/A-18C Late increase countermeasures higher 60
