Is there any plans to increase the gear ratio count of the M41 based vehicles from forward 4 and 2 reverse to 6 forward 2 reverse? like the M46/47/48/60 etc?
Both M41 and those listed above have transmissions that only have 2 forward ratios and 1 reverse ratio as they were built to complement a Torque converter with a very high stall ratio (>4)
When applying Torque converters normally gears are only doubled, but the forward gears on M46/47/48/60 have been tripled instead of doubled
seeing as the M41 series of vehicles (M41, M42, M44, M64) were built to the same methodology, would it be possible to see this this?
If not, would it be possible to report the M41 series of vehicles for these 6 gears? or should it involve reporting M46 etc to only have 4 forward gears as is normal procedure?
This lack of gear ratios greatly impacts the potential mobility of these vehicles (M42 in particular, making it less agile than the M19A1, despite having a 40% higher HP/T)
What did I just read? Even if it’s just an example, making Canada’s only production fighter unobtanium(even if there is more than one variant, going by the track record, first one in game as event others won’t come or are years out) and the other operator of it the permanently available version is a horrible idea(nothing agesnt Belgum getting it, they should but…).
And yes, I disagreed with India’s domestic fighter becoming a fomo rewarded as well. Thankfully, there are other variants of it, but…
@Smin1080p_WT there doesn’t happen to be a chance for more information on the new clouds is there? It was never properly shown off in either dev stream and there was a mention of it being Naval only for some reason? More info on it would be pretty nice cause new clouds would be amazing, whether its new cloud formations, volumetrics, or something.
I don’t have the buk, only play against it, but it’s stupid easy to evade. That’s a graph of how it does against a stationary target, which is hardly relevant.
I think it’s stupid that if they decided to go the route of the SEAD F-16, they decided to add this instead of the F-16CJ (as in a Spang one). Ideally they could have done something similar to what they did with the Blk 10 and Blk 15 where they added both at the same time, one after the other. In this case, the CJ could have been foldered with the standard C, and they could have added a block 50 or 52 PoBIT for Tier IX with all the bells and whistles. (Preferably block 50 cause the 52 is just straight worse, both irl and as it seems right now in the game. If they wanted to add a F100-PW-229 F-16 it should have been a 42.)
Although, what it REALLY should have been this update was an F-15E Suite VI with the new radar and EPAWSS, then save the SEAD 16s for the inevitable SEAD update in June.
gaijin refuses to add SLERA to the namers and merkavas,
so i ATLEAST hope they will add NERA to the eitan on the sides and wont butcher it like the namer.
