Nice! the Targeting-pods now has a max range of 30km :D
Very cool for SIM Air/EC maps and was needed for the glide munitions, but that is going to make things so much harder for SPAA in top tier Ground RB… it’s going to be a rough couple of months (longer?) until better SPAA is added for top tier.

I suspect it is almost ready. They wouldn’t have done this if it weren’t, I would wager.
OS2U-1, OS2U-2, TBD-1, B-18A and PBM-1

I certainly hope so, at this point there are to many planes that have access to munitions that quite easily outrage SPAA without much effort from the pilot. Sure, SPAA can shoot them down but after that has no way to fight back or take the plane out (which i why i think they added so that munition takedowns will give you rewards now).
I can’t help feel the slight… Convenience this buff is coming with the addition of a soviet top tier multirole with a tpod. Especially as theyll be one of the main beneficiaries of having longer lock ranges with the KH-38.
But yes. It’s a good chance within ASB, just wish the aircraft I normally played could make use of it fully (sad brimstone 2 noises)
Well, you could either have it come in with the Su 34 prior, and folk would have been spitting if that were the case. Or we could bring it in with only really the Rafale being able to take advantage of it with a thermal pod and AASMs.
I suspect it’s just an easy increase before the coming AAs. Make folk miffed with the cas buff, then happy with the new AAs.

I hope other nations get good AA’s but there is still the factor of people need to actually be good at playing AA’s even playing USSR I see so many Pantsir drivers look so confused and then eat a Brimstone or GBU because they just don’t know where to look or what is happening around them, and unfortunately no amount of god tier AA’s will help with that issue
How do you know we’re not eating brimstones because we feel bad for the pommies
(Or asleep, sometimes we are asleep)

Ah yes I forgot about that lmao, of course I too spawn in and stare up at the sun to count every pixel I see on it, just to make the brimstone users feel happy once in awhile

Literally won’t play above 10.3 otherwise I’m simply outranged playing almost all spaa’s, 30/40km munitions vs 10/12km AA’s and realistically it’s about 7/8km effective before the missile becomes unresponsive compared to the aircraft is just not even worth spawning.
I think the AOA override on planes that do not have means of post departure control is a bit silly.
I mean it shouldn’t be able to limiter release AT ALL, it can’t IRL. So gotta enjoy what you can.
which one do you think is good? I found only negative changes (aiming, damage model)
Top tier guns are getting an accuracy buff. British ships will now be able to hit what they aimed at. Rodney is also getting a faster reload. Bots now reward more when you kill them.
Some of the coastal changes are… Okay, but need refinement
Torpedo damage changes don’t sound too bad

ok, I can agree with this but in general the negative changes dominates (HE spamming is back)
Yes, I am very much concerned about that change
No they haven’t
They haven’t fixed the Type 10’s armor
They haven’t fixed the dimensions of the tank
The autoloader
The weight
The length of the gun
The composite arrays and their correct thickness
They haven’t fixed the suspension bug
They haven’t fixed the acceleration bug
The autoloader is copy pasted
The additional ammo in the hull doesn’t exist irl it gets stored alongside the autoloader
They haven’t fixed anything to do with the TKX and Type 10 nor are they going to
They give 0 cares even when handed official sources.
To put this in perspective I wrote a report, I had all 1,000 pages translated
Cited the sources
Cited the paragraphs
Cited exactly where they can find the information
What they proceeded to do (yes I spammed however the point is a tech mod asked me specifically to do this) was ban me for spamming. I was following up on what a prior tech mod told me to do. He wanted me to cite the sources and do a better translation job and that’s what I did. They shot it down.
They can’t even get the dozer right for the TKX variants
In game it adds 0 weight, I have documents stating it weighs 1.5T and in game it’s also depicted as being flat but irl it has an S type shape to it
Like come on you can’t even make this stuff up. The way those 2 ranks are in game fit the very definition for a paper tank. They don’t exist in the configuration they have it set at. At 44 tons the TKX and Type 10 get a level 1 ERA and additional composite armor array attached.
It doesn’t even have that in game which is ludicrous. They added empty weight to the vehicles and called it a day even though there’s stuff missing from the tank and major amounts missing

Glad to see the US is getting GBU-54s finally on the F/A-18C. Why they didn’t have it when it was added to the game on any other aircraft equipped to carry it, although not surprising is still annoying.

Japanese TT get nearly nothing for this update, I just hope gaijin can fix the existing bugs of type 10.🤡
