It was never going to get AIM-120Bs though.
Reliable I still don’t think so, but doable much more than scharn where you literally need a miracle to pen to the magazines.
This is kind of a shame for Bismarck, hahah. To think that, in terms of protection and survivability, it’s actually a DOWNgrade to the current top dog, Scharnhorst, which it’s succeeding, sitting a full BR higher.
The firepower is a HUGE improvement, though!

Well the TB is thicker, I just haven’t had a chance to test her to see if the thickness compensates for the lower angle. I doubt it will but thats an assumption.
Also, Scharns magazines are not pennable. Even by a railgun at the speed of light with a superheavy projectile. The question is how much of a downgrade is bismarck :p
Yeah, fingers crossed. By the sounds of it, the only one to fear is the Kronstadt 2.0 I mean, the Soyuz. None of the other top tier ships sounds all that scary even in Rodney or Hood, let alone Vanguard
Bismarck’s armor is not yet modelled, every plate is 40mm thick or less, so we can’t test the effectiveness yet, hahah.
But the angle is something I was also wondering about. It’s so low and gentle that it feels like it will be much worse :(

This makes sense. Anything on the A and C?
Hopefully they will adjust Yamatos magazine and shell room size and location they are currently not really correct especially that they sit way to high up. Yamato should have weak spots but it shouldn’t be the ticking time bomb it currently is.
edit lol new data mine says they reorganized the ammo so thats interesting and from the looks of it some other survivability buffs

General Dynamics (ik its the Canadian side of the company but still) and it uses the american 25mm. And while it is mostly Canadian the Americans also helped design it a little amongst other things

Nah bvvd saved it for next. Hinted in dev stream.
Pretty useless RN actually, a bit like the menu u press ‘y’ to get in air battles, which pretty much is useless cause u have to use ACQ atm mostly.
I’ve heard it was going to have guided weapons just worse, no kh29 or 1000kg. Also no all aspects just pl5b so that it goes down to su25 level pretty much.
120c changes

So slight seeker improvement? And a bit better range now after drag change.

Gszabi found a Leo Major avatar. Wonder what it’s for(hopefully a permanent one) as it’s too early for next month’s avatar and datamines of those happen closer to them. There is one other way I could think of it, but it’s A weird as that is the wrong nation, and B I was hoping to skip it.

ready for literally none of the british aircraft that can use SNIPER to be denied it for “balance”
realistically means there should be no reason to not add the C-5 to the Typhoon the F-15E was already one of the best BVR fighters
