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

I’d be fine with them only giving 4 smart quad racks for the aircrafts that can carry it, maybe just 2.

SPICE 250 is extremely powerful, so introducing it should be slow to not make Israeli aircraft wipe out the entire enemy team by themselves.

@Smin1080p_WT Sorry for the ping but I have made this flow chart to minimums future arguments, would you like to take a look for me and improve it in anyway ?

In that case we should remove JHMCS from all US aircraft, seeing as that came alongside the 9X and therefore constitutes a “significant difference”

need AGM-84H/K SLAM-ER with 270km range instead of 110km agm84E now

Can we also have TAURUS at that point?

Firstly, im well aware there are multiple MLUs. That was never disputed. I also dont decide on what variant or MLU comes.

Secondly, we have been clear that the version coming to the game this update is the base pre-MLU (any MLU) variant.

We have a later MLU version coming in the future with many of the things mentioned and suggested on a more modern version later.

Throwing shade and the indirect insults here are not going to change anything or improve the matter at hand.

@Smin1080p_WT are the KAB-500LG and KAB-1500LG bombs going to receive the GPS/IOG guidance, because currently only 250LG has those capabilities.

Otherwise the Su-30SM devblog is misleading and should get fixed.

I want the rampage
Way better then the maveriks

Hey. Blogs are always subject to change.

As mentioned at the bottom:

Please note that this vehicle’s characteristics may be changed before it is added to the game.

Hey, @Smin1080p_WT
the response to this report from a couple days ago kinda implies that the XM246 would be getting APDS, just in some different way from the gepards and co.
This goes against today’s blog that says it won’t be getting APDS. Is this just a miscommunication?

Is it a mistake in the bombs modelling or a mistake in the devblog

Hey. There were some issues with its belts. The ammo choice is not final and still being worked on.

And I can’t understand the reasoning for that, as I’ve said the MLU 1 package brings Finlands Hornet up to the same level the US one is at already, A2G ordinance aside, and again, it should have the same cockpit as the current US one as well, so it can’t be an assets issue.

I’d like a reason for it that doesn’t feel like Finland purposefully and needlessly being held back

We have explained with answers from the devs why that is. Sadly I cant provide something to change your mind when you have already clearly made a pre-set conclusion.

God isn’t that an Ironic sentence

I guess the devs want to continue the streak of sweden not having a competent CAS aircraft

For me the main thing is, at least we now the Finnish line isn’t dead now with one more Hornet planned and another being talked about.

This isn’t even about CAS, I can understand not adding the MLU 2, but they didn’t even add the MLU 1, which means no HMS

Mr Smin, anything else hidden away for the patch we dont know about that could come? Or has it pretty much all hit the dev server now?

IIRC there was talk in a dev stream of a thai tank coming, is that still the case and if so, any hints on if its a TT or squadron or premium, light/medium, etc? ^^

So why does the majority of Finnish players who wamt HMD ignored but other nations get what the majority wants? Again why does Finland all the sudden not get the same treatment. Again it just seems more like targeted hate.
