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

Could you 100% confirm that the Challenger 2;s had their Gear ratios changed?
I’m 100% certain they have but there has been no update on the report

In addition i noticed in the datamines the F-86K has its G limits fiddled with, but not to the correct figures?

Could you confirm if those changes are with this report or some other report that I am unaware of?

Apart from the incorrect name, the plane also has an incorrect maximum speed.

No report currently exists on that.

Additionally stat cards may not be correct. Aircraft performance should be tested directly with a fully upgraded Aircraft.

The report was resolved internally a couple of months ago. So there has been a change yes.

So, for now, we should hold off on writing a report on the plane’s maximum speed? Because I don’t know if it’s worth doing.

You can make a report, it just needs to be tested properly with the aircrafts actual performance and fully upgraded. Stat cards are not always correct.

Hey @Smin1080p_WT
can you maybe forward this please :)

I noticed that the Hawk 200 got a detailed dm added to it, is there any word of that coming to the 200 RDA and the 209 too?

any reason why the Centauro II is referred to as a prototype model?

Probably so that they can release the production version later as a seperate vehicle.

I’m pretty sure this IS the production version though? unless they plan to add a 105 variant at some point?

Hi @Smin1080p_WT

Is it planned or considered for aircraft at Rank IX to be given stock chaff?

Since historically, when a new Rank is added, it is usually customary that stock grind is improved to account for the gameplay meta at the new rank. Such as for:

  • Rank VII Aircraft: Stock IR missiles
  • Rank VIII Aircraft: Stock Radar missiles
  • Rank VIII Ground: Stock APFSDS

The relevant thread has not seen any official statement or response yet.

I think @spacesoldier117 can explain the difference.

This is a flawed reasoning. I could say the same thing about any modern missiles in game.
But, just like every other missiles, the Aim120 is subject to the same reporting standards of using open source documentation.

Which you will never get.

Go and look at 9X there is no accurate data on that missile. We see figures of 50G and 75G
Nothing official

Do you believe the 120 hasnt changed in 20 years?

US mains are going to endure this because as mentioned US public data released for capabilities is always understated.

We had PAC 2 Patriot hit an EAWCS at a range greater than it’s maximum publicly listed range.

hey guys i have an idea! lets screw up the WS-10B even more at high altitudes which is the most played way of top tier air rb and give low altitude a pointless buff!! for both J-10C and J-15T

As far as I can tell the version we have on the dev server is the 2016 Centauro II prototype.

Main differences between the 2016 and 2018 production version are few and quite subtle:

  • replacement of the four lateral Guardian H3 jammers with a new antenna system
  • new driver hatch for improved visibility
  • improved internals like for example better lithium batteries, etc
  • and most notably the Type B add-on armor kit, which can make it withstand up to 40mm AP.

All in all the version we have ingame is essentially the production version.

Please correct me if there is missinformation in this post
