So about an actually useable anti-air for the other three nations…

I know my problem with it not that big but what’s up with Dutch tanks not having Dutch crew voices?
Like there will be 5 Dutch tanks in French TT and yet their crewmen speak in English instead of their native language
@Smin1080p_WT is there any reason the F2A ADTWs TWS behaves differently compared to all the other ones? Is this change planned to roll out to other platforms aswell or is this an F2 exclusive?
I assume Russia won’t be the only nation (nor will the pack be the only one)? Afaik, Germany (Through GDR), Japan (Thru Thailand), China (Thru NK or Bangladesh), America, France, and Italy (thru Hungary) can all get it

In addition to everyone’s comments here and elsewhere about the Sovetsky Soyuz’s flaws/purposefully mis-interpreted design choices, I see no update or reversion of the newly introduced and much maligned aiming system for NAB. Can we get any information as to why that is, or are we going to be ignored again in this dev server, like we were last time when most of the naval community pled to be heard and not have that aiming system change, and have continued to be ignored since then?

“can” doesn’t mean “will”
There are plenty of vehicles that could be copy pasted to plenty of trees, but sometimes they just won’t be copy pasted for one reason or another
Fair, I just feel like locking something unique like the Albatross behind a paywall like that is kinda bad, I hope at least one country gets a TT variant
Sorry, I meant to specify that
Heres to hoping they add the 9X to the AH1Z too . One can only hope. Actually it wouldn`t be that absurd

Why would they? Most other Helis are stuck with Stingers…
I’m referencing why the Swiss version has altflir and the American version has the litening
Not like they didn`t do it before. If im not wrong, the 9L was first added on the AH1Z as a test , sorta like what they did with the R73 on SU25BM
Swiss don’t operate carriers. the ATFLIR wasn’t cleared for carrier operations while the litening was.
I keep getting kicked to the login menu in the Dev Server client, even during test drives.
Why do only the new Finnish F/A-18Cs (MLU 2) get the BOL upgrade tho? Shouldn’t the US and the Swiss ones also get this?
Gaijin doesn’t seem to understand that any armor can be penetrated with enough speed — whether it’s a ballistic vest or ship armor. I thought that was common knowledge. For example, in the USN empirical formula, velocity is raised to the power of 1.1, while mass is only raised to 0.55.
Compare Okun’s calculations to what Gaijin uses — just look at the penetration ratios of the shells they’ve modeled. It’s clear as day.
Figures at 0 meters and 14,600 meters (almost 15,000), all versus British Cemented Armor, for example — and effective pen (shell not broken):
- Yamato: 31.7 and 19.3
- Iowa: 32.8 and 21
- Bismarck: 31.1 and 18.5
- Richelieu: 32.9 and 18.8
- Roma: 31.9 and 20.4
Gaijin’s values (first one for 1000 m):
- Yamato: 870 and 630
- Iowa: 857 and 583
- Bismarck: 708 and 439
- Richelieu: 738 and 491
- Roma: 771 and 513
You get it, right?
I’m not even going to talk about Stalin’s dream ship — there’s no reliable data on its gun, since there was only one and it broke after 80 shots. Overall, it was deliberately overperforming to showcase supposedly incredible results. Just like the rest of the ship, which the Soviets couldn’t have built even without the war, not before 1945. There are published sources on this, but as usual, Gaijin doesn’t care — not when it comes to the Red Nation.
In the end, it’s clear the Germans are nerfed — as usual — in this ‘game’.
Iowa and Yamato obviously have overestimated penetration values. Or, more likely, the 380 mm guns are heavily underrated.
Iowa’s penetration matches what’s in Battleships: United States Battleships 1935–1992, calculated using the USN empirical formula. But using the same formula, Bismarck’s penetration is actually significantly higher.
Double standards, perhaps?
That formula gives more weight to velocity than to shell mass.
Yet in Gaijin’s model, Richelieu — with the same caliber, 10% more shell mass, and 2.5% less velocity — has higher penetration.
According to Okun, close-range penetrations are nearly identical across these calibers, but heavier shells lose velocity more slowly — which makes sense.
So either the penetration values for the 406–460 mm guns are inflated (except for Rodney’s 406 mm for some reason — although SS also show inflated values in the same pattern), or the 380 mm guns are massively underrated — most notably Bismarck’s.
And all these ships will be matched against each other anyway — as we all know, BR 8.7 vs. 8.3 makes no real difference.

Since F-15E getting C-5s is unlikely to change anyways, can you like retroactively give the Su-34 R-77-1s? It’s not broken right since it is still a bad platform anyways
