it’s the same situation as SU-30 MKM, it can, an gaijin want it have it, so it has it

They have moved airspawns back on a few maps.

Currently I have seen Pyrenees and Mysterious valley have the new airspawns, and I hope this applies to all 10.7+ maps.

Then why didn’t the M1A1 AIM get it? That’s messed up.

because they set AIM in that place. and It actually uses KEW A2

Tornado F3s and Sea Harrier FA2s. (Bear in mind both used ASRAAMs for a number of years and are both underperforming considerably in-game)

But we had a bit of an agreement with the Americans to focus on ground attack more. So that’s why a large part of the RAF was Jagaur Gr3As, Tornados Gr1/Gr4 and Harrier Gr7/9s. Iirc

This is so unfair! How can this even be considered a realistic simulation? Why not bump up the AIM’s BR or lower the M1A2T’s—just to pander to a specific crowd’s tastes?

The sheer amount of top tier jets we’re getting next update is absolutely crazy
By the way did they increase top br to 14.7 in the dev server? Since we’re getting a superior eft

if I’m under standing this correct the sepv2 shouldn’t get the new LWS and smokes because they were from the sepv4 upgrade package that was canceled so they instead took the sepv3 and made a late modification to it to use LWS and the smokes

can someone tell me the horizontal scan area of super hornet

There was no 14.7 on the dev server yet, hopefully that changes though.

Hell at this point I think they should just yeet the Rafales and AESA EFTs to 15.0 and spread all the other current 14.3s out over 14.3 and 14.7.

It’s wild that we will have another 3 months of Rafale/EFT with nothing at the same BR even coming close.

hope they can just change the cd0(speed to drag parameter) of J-10A/C, this will make it capable. this is what makes J-10 unable to go faster after supersonic

Huh, now thats new.

The M1A2T should be placed in the BR 12.0-12.3 level, and the ZTZ99 should be recalibrated to the BR 12.7 level, instead of being given the KEWA2 to fill the 12.7 gap.

Hence, I started my comment with : Most (if not all) IFVs(IRL) are classed as LT in WT.

You gotta remember the UK is in the middle of the sea, the principal threats that the ADV was designed to counter were Soviet long range bombers, Tu-22 and such. So dogfighting just wasn’t that important, sensors and endurance was the focus. The writing on the wall was it was to be a “stopgap” project while a “proper” fighter was under development as the UK was participating in the many projects the lead to the eurofighter, (The ADV entered service in late '84, only a year and a half before the EAP flew).

It also wasn’t to be a “front line” fighter in a cold war gone hot, that role would have been filled by the Harriers operating from improvised airstrips.

The MoD did look a buying American but the ADV was just cheaper in projected life time costs (the option heavily considered was the F-14) due to having 80% parts commonality with the IDS. Although if the F-18 was available before the ADV project started there probably would have been interest in that, but alas the F-18 and ADV pretty much share a development timeframe, give or take.

For over two years now, France has been without its Exocet air-to-sea missile, one of its most well-known weapons.

During the last update, when I asked you if the missile would be added, you told me it wasn’t a priority yet.

There’s currently an aircraft on the Dev Server that desperately needs this missile.

So please, answer my plea: will there be an Exocet missile on the Rafale?

(and if possible, on the Super Étendard)
