Major Update "Ninth Wave" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Welp, bedtime for me hahah

I hope tomorrow we may see some Rank VIII MBTs, or at last news on regenerative steering after 9 years…

F-16C POBIT? With AIM-120Ds lol, watch it be 14.3 for no reason other than “120Ds so OP trust” and with only 6 of them. Unless we get this proposal with triple rack amraams for a total of 10 a2a missiles this thing is completely DOA

So an F-16 with an AESA and just 6 amraams facing top BR monsters? Yeah uhhh no thanks, I’ll go fly the F-2A if I want anything similar to an F-16 with AESA (and has 2 extra and better missiles) or the Israeli F-16C Barak because at least with this one I can combine harder pulling missiles with amraams.

Can’t argue with that

Swedens heli tree is pretty rough, just like Japans lol

We don’t know how the 120Ds will perform yet…

the only way this thing could ever possibly be peak, never seen this before

Where was this confirmed?

If they are anything short of flying T-800’s the F-16C PoBIT is done for at top tier

The base 120Ds are kinematically identical to the 120C-5s, so unless they buff the seeker (which the 120C-5 already should have but gaijin nerfed it in dev server to be the same as 120A/B) and even then, only 6 of them don’t cut it when you’re facing Su-30s with 14 missiles, which 12 of those can be fox 3s, double your count, yeah right

Same pod as seen on the F-18F iirc?

also hope they add the AN/AAR-60 MILDS

That thing shouldn’t be any higher than 14.0, and even 14.0 is constant uptier hell to 14.7, the F-15EX would’ve made a whole lot more sense to help USA be competitive in the current meta, would it be the best jet in the game? No but sure as hell way more meta than this

Japan has a FnF helicopter and a lot more stuff with flares and missiles with more than 3.75km with actual penetration, I don’t see the comparison outside of the UH-1B which you can skip via ground research. Everything else is actually solid.

That is unless you have no idea what the HKP’s use which would explain your comment

The Hornet’s pod has the same sensor, but the pod itself is a modified drop tank.

The LEGION pod on the F-16 and F-15 is an actual pod like a SNIPER or LANTIRN. Smin denied Legion for the F-15 so I don’t think Legion is coming

Yeah what are they gonna add to sweden? Some Qatari Apache with FnF? Lol

Well you’re luckier than I am then because I sure as hell get uptiers 80% of the time

yea prob comes down to luck, been having good matches w it

Surely the mockup Ka-52 can be given
