I was willing to spend 50 bucks on GE’ing USS Iowa entirely.
But if they do this, obviously I can’t do it.
Shame, right?
I really thought we had achieved something with the excessive Rank unlock requirements…
Yes, meant to be the one above it
That is also where most of the development time for the US, German and Israeli medium range sam went as well lol. Half the nations aren’t getting anything and the other half are getting what are essentially a joke of a SAM.
I can’t wait to see Gaijin hype these up as the “long awaited Pantsir counterparts” even though they are much worse.

Likely not, event is still running until the 17th. So next week is much more likely.
Yeah, but it’s still just 5 Rank VI ships, the requirement didn’t go up.
Even if they kept the Texas in Rank VI, you’d have to research that or the Alaska at some point anyways
It went up.
Before, if you purchased; Texas, Alaska, Tennessee, Nevada and Arizona, you could go for the Iowa, skipping Colorado.
Not anymore; now you need Alaska, Tennessee, Nevada, Arizona and Colorado; and, of course, Texas in order to unlock those.
I must be unable to do maths properly, because to my knowledge until now 5=5 and not 5=6.
They also moved some of the Rank V ships down to Rank IV, but I guess that doesn’t matter.
Anyways, sucks to play the US I guess, US suffers n stuff
Just as a reminder, the British and Japanese trees are sitting in the same boat (pun not intended)
Before any changes, you needed:
6x VIs:
Texas
Nevada
Arizona
Tennessee
Colorado
Alaska
After the first change, you needed:
5x VIs:
Texas
Nevada
Arizona
Tennessee
Colorado / Alaska (you can skip one)
After the second change, you need:
“5x VIs”:
Texas (yes, it’s Rank V, but you need it to unlock Rank VI anyway)
Nevada
Arizona
Tennessee
Colorado
Alaska
So we are back to square 1. You still need to research and purchase everything.

At what time tomorrow does the DEV end?
They are moving FOUR ships from Rank V to Rank IV and one from Rank VI to Rank V.
For people that do not have everything up to Rank VI researched yet this is a significant reduction in grind requirements.
Just because you have to research the entirety of Rank VI again doesn’t mean the requirement went up.
Just a namechange?
CLAWS is the proper name for the SLAMRAAM system I believe

So USMC terminated the CLAWS-programme in 2006, whilst the SLAMRAAM-programme was cancelled in 2011 by the USArmy. Would this specification change anything major? SLAMRAAM programme had perhaps the upgraded Sentinel?
Awesome detail to the cockpit of the Hunter F.58! Does the Hunter have an internal TV camera, or does the cockpit require some final tweaking? The mavericks aren installed on the sc
I don’t know enough about the history of the SLAMRAAM programme, I just did a quick google search to find what the CLAWS system is and it came up with the SLAMRAAM.
The CLAWS designation could just be to specify the exact variant Gaijin is modelling, so they can tell people in the Forums and the Bug Reports that certain features won’t be added to the vehicle, because they weren’t present at that stage.

Hopefully so, 7 days from today would be best.
Is the TanSam in the dev able to lock on helis at long distances?
Via radar, yes
