Major Update "Spearhead" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

If the Radar equipt Hawk does get finalised is there any idea to what armament it would in the form of IR and SARH/ARH missiles?

Its not currently finalised or close to it, so im afraid its too soon to say.

At the very least, 6 x AIM-9 is a given. ARH definitely wont be for its BR currently. SARH are still under consideration, again due to its BR. Its flight performance is the main factor to consider with what to give it.

At the very least do you know what minium br it would be as it would get radar missiles…

There is no guarantee it will get radar missiles, as was said on the stream. Thats still a matter under consideration.

Has there been any sign or hint of a boat for Britain yet? Would love to see a King George V class make an appearance.

Finnish hawk? Please gaijin

Ramblings of a mad-person

Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk Hawk!!!

Sorry I know I asked this earlier and you’re probably not able to say at this time
But are there any plans for the Hawk 208 or 209?

As we mentioned in the Hawk 200 dev blog, there is always a possibility of more Hawks in the future.

No I mean the radar equipt Hawk

Thats what im referring too also. The Hawk 200 RDA. It was mentioned on stream it may not get SARH missiles due to its flight performance and BR concerns. But it does have additional sidewinders.

mhm so it could just be a hawk with a radar… wack

Btw should we expect to see later models or changes to the Penguins

I dont know what you mean by this. If there are reports, then yes changes are possible.

@Smin1080p_WT bit off topic, but as an air enjoyer.

Did you participate in the AMK Eurofighter lecture.
And if yes, whats your thought?

AGM 119A Anti ship missiles, with the introduction of the F16AM RNoAF just figured the Penguins might get changed

Is there any thing about the cv90mk 5 changing from spikes to arkeon mmp?

Im aware of what they are yes. Just not aware of any changes or what’s being asked. If there are reports suggesting something is wrong / incorrect with them, then yes its possible they may change.

Otherwise asking if something “may” change with anything in game randomly is a bit of an open ended question.

The current implementation is wrong its a glorified Maverick in how it works and i know theres a bug report as the missile saves fuel before its about to hit before climbing and attacking from above and using the leftover fuel to help speed it up so i was curious if its pathing would be corrected

Also is Sniper planned to be added to the MLU 2 as its still missing that, i know the devs stated Sniper was planned for just the F-2 but is it planned to be added this patch at all?

Spoiler

I just want silly Penguin missiles…

Truly one of the most silly designs and names for a missile imo
