Would way rather have a benelux tech tree than yugoslavian tech tree

Yes, the new radars and surface-surface missile launchers match the ones that were found in the files after Oliviia said they would be used as a new kind of ground target for Air modes:
And the SAM systems are the same kind that the devs said they were confident ARM 's would be useful against, unlike the mobile ones players use. Probably not a coincidence.

Yugoslavia would have more than some nations already in game, especially on the ground front, many of which are entirely unique or just straight crazy, like the Stuart with a German 75mm gun, or the T-55 with an M18 turret.

Oh please no, it’s already bad enough as it is with the KH-38s completely outranging SAMs and SPAAs
Watch them introduce longer range air to ground missiles than what we have, and only give Russia an anti-air capable of fighting them

Should be added for sim to be a bit more engaging. Regardless, if the stuff gets added, likely wouldn’t be any more of a detriment to SPAA than say a kh38.
My copy paste button for some reason pasted thing I was just researching in this, ignore that.
Hmmm… Maybe HARMs in the near future then. Even if they were only usable in ASB like ASMs are
When dev stream?
Reckon they should be usable across the board. If they have substandard accuracy as claimed, wouldn’t be much different than launching the more modern IR stuff at AA. That and sim is tiring, a proper RB mode for ground attackers would be cool.
If the MiG-21 Bison gets R-77 we’ll have that, AMRAAM, and R-Darter

We’ve already seen that they have a visual model for AGM-78 ready to go, though it was for Naval instead of aircraft when we saw it:

I think 14 hours from now? For the RU one.
Yeah, a lot of potential for that kind of weapon. Even the threat of them would mitigate top tier SPAA a bit, they would have to use radar cautiously.
Where is this stated? I haven’t seen this anywhere
That and the search frequencies may not overlap for SPAA across the board, so would be a bit amusing to have folk panic over something that can’t track them. So wouldn’t be all that borked to use in ground, even if frequencies line up.
They said that they considered moving the 2000Cs up, but decided against it in the last big BR adjustment
The Meteor F.8 is not a NF variant. NF variants are actually quite different from the “standard” Meteor (Mk 4, 8 ). France never operated a Mk 8 Meteor.
Similarly a Spitfire XIV and XVI are very different. Whilst its the same letters in a different order, they are totally different marks of Spitfires. Griffon vs Merlin. Equally France never operated XIVe.

Yeah, Niche but interesting nonetheless. Great fun for ASB though. Providing they dont end up like ASMs and just miss 99% of the time
One question. Why are they adding a l
‘Late’ version of the Tornado F3. Why not the GR4 or the F2?
