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

Drag’s too high?

I think it’s time for Gaijin to do a limited time mode for ground only, and see how it performs. You know, similar sort of to the gun only game mode for air?

For the lighter models, it should be something like 23km when fired from 500ft or something, its more like 18ish km at the moment iirc

But like PGMs, its not soviet, so its not a priority to be fixed

Isn’t their loft profile, like with every other missile except the LMUR (evil to him who evil thinks), also very wrong? Currently they fly a nearly direct approach with an extremely low impact angle instead of a loft course with a high impact angle.

They don’t compare to other fnf ordnance. Many different reasons for it but imo the biggest drawback is speed, the Kh-38 reaches mach 2.2, the reaction time required to intercept mav vs kh38 is vastly different. Additionaly the mavs suffer from gajobs treatment of HEAT warheads.

I think the context is what is wrong with Mavericks compared to IRL, not other AGMs

Them being worthless at top tier is a seperate issue

Agm-65 is 80s technology. New cas == same old fraud. It’s a joke that no matter if you are flying an early AGM-65B carrier or a Superhornet you utilise the same tactics in war thunder. Gaijin can’t replicate the actual CAS environment without introducing SAR radar, decoys, jammers, multiple SPI/DPI, ARMs, MMW guidance etc…

Well, I hope the dev update/release is early on Monday, as I’ve got to be at the hospital for the evening :/

EDIT: Nevermind, my appointment is much earlier than I thought, so yay!

But Anton Yudintsev is Russian, not Hungarian… are you sure the subtitles aren’t just a mis-translation?

No, please no… we don’t want to copy-paste slopify the Me 210… it can’t even be unique for a single update? On top of it being so similar to the Me 410 we need to put it into 4 tech trees for both sides of the war?

It’s already not unique lol? It’s going to Hungary and Japan as well as Germany.

And I wanna see RAF marking axis aircraft

Doesn’t change their under preformance.

Maybe I will need to look into it more. The range is extremely off.

Slop with a side of slop, with a number 9 slop with extra slop alongside a diet dr slop.

That’s already my point lol? Germany doesn’t need it, Japan definitely doesn’t need it, the UK definitely doesn’t need it, only Hungary actually had any need for it. But I guess they’re taking the M44/M55/M109 approach.

What Japan needs is a VT4.

Lol no

What Japan needs is Type 10’s steering finally fixed so that it can turn without pulling a 180°for pressing A/D for a split second and coming to a full stop…

Bonus points if their acceleration is fixed too so that they actually accelerate faster and NOT slower than Type 90…

Can we please get the Polish tech tree already? I’m tired of having to play the 2PL with german main team mates

Honestly, idek. In some places I remember reading the 7.92 mm MGs got replaced, in other places it says the 20 mms got replaced, according to your diagram it should keep all of the guns…

Yes, again, because A)People like seeing vehicles that their nation used REGARDLESS of whether or not that vehicle already is in a lot of TTs or is otherwise useless/boring

And B) Because people lose a lot of interest In an update when a devblog releases and it’s just ‘Vehicle added 10 years ago and could have been added 8 years ago but is only being added now’
