Major Update “Leviathans” — DEV Server Changelog (16.06.2025) - dev server is closed

AGM-65 has a max tracking range of 20km. I was talking about the Brimstone.

Noooooo, my F-2 </3
Why do I have to work for money :( hahah
Hoping the update to drop soon ^^

That’s probably for ships and huge targets like that.
Locking up tank-sized enemies isn’t really consistent once you go past 12-13km.

DEV Server got an update ~ 400MB
2.46.0.46

No, that’s for tank sized targets. That’s why penguin and the new missiles have a 2.5km lock range vs tanks. They are AShMs, only intended to be launched at ships.

It’s closed

Forcing ground spawns for high tier CAS would probably help a fair bit, but I’m not sure if that would be enough

Guess you’re playing a different game then lmao.

Yeah I’m saying I don’t want it to be

And still, it got an Update

Penguin has a 2.5 km lock range because thats when the seeker head began seeking for targets. Up until that point it would fly via gps/ins

It is possible for MAUS, I’ve done it at around 18km. That is technically a tank.

You wouldn’t by any chance have the opportunity to nudge someone to check the suspension on the new M4A3 (76) W HVSS (Hell) and the US TT version? Since they were both still bugged on the dev server. And it’d be nice to know if it’'s known/will be fixed so as to know if to pre-order the pack or not.

Armor except bow is better for Iowa, and most important, citadel is much safer. For AP shells and ROF, I don’t think much difference between two. Explosive is not everything.

Even though it is soft stat, maximum ROF still needs evidence. For those 7.3 ships, Cavour and Strasbourg have chance fighting against Yamato. For Barham, its just Gaijin’s mistake to place it on 7.3. It’s equivalent of Marlborough and Iron duke.

You never know what happens to her turtleback, huh?

Not just the bow, Soyuz has 420mm of armor around her A & B turrets and unless something changed recently her ammunition is below the waterline. Not only that, but its ammunitions storage are offset and not directly below the turrets, making it far more awkward to hit.
This means that Soyuz will be nigh impossible to kill when angled, something that can’t be said of Iowa.

Soyuz has better RoF, explosive mass, roughly similar pen to Iowa and better muzzle velocity.
I don’t see how it can be claimed that it’s not outright better.

As far as I know no Soyuz turrets were ever fully completed, so clearly they are capable of taking some liberties.

No, no they don’t. Rodney and Mutsu/Amagi already lolpens them from pretty much every angles which makes facing them pure misery, Yamato would be even worse.

And good luck dealing with a Yamato when your shell won’t be able to pen it at all past a certain distance.

I heard it’s not as good as Scharnhorst’s because it’s not rounded which doesn’t result in a systematic autobounce.
But just because it’s worse than the most survivable BB in the game at the moment doesn’t mean it’s bad. At least most certainly not “should be 8.0” bad.

And Iowa has basically 480 mm + effectiveness protection thanks to spaced armour, and her ammo ‘around’ waterline can be emptied while Soyuz can’t. And also, her ‘actual’ DM of shell room is just below the waterline, not in the safe place.

Only 1.3 seconds faster, not a big deal

Actually, even at 10 km when showing cheek, and about at 8 km at non angled Yamato.

Much worse than that. It’s turtleback around No.1 turret is non existent and no battleship at 8.0+ have problem detonating her in 10 km.

Thankfully in at least some battles this will now be the case. Not just at high tier tho, at all tiers seemingly.

Even if you think I’m wrong, at the very least according to datamined stats the Kh-38MT and AGM-65D/G have identical lock ranges against vehicles. Both are set to 20km.

no thats statcard range
maximum lock range(hard limit) for 65D is 24km and KH-38MT 40km
baseline lock range(ground) is the same

Yeah that’s the absolute maximum for TRACK lock but it only really happens in perfect scenario with best weather and huge vehicles like ships.

Getting consistent locks past 13km is a fairy tale.
