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

They are also modeling them on the SEPv1 it seems.

Agreed, it’s weird though it’s on the SEPv1 and v2 though. Yeah, my best guess is they’re playing around with it to see about adding a new variant of Abrams instead of adding the SEPv3 yet. I doubt they’re going to be researchable additions to the existing, especially since the SEPv1 never had it.

i don’t think it will get the dircm since it never have one but the longbow radar technically could?
there was article of it saying that 4 or the 8 getting the radar, but none’s shown when delivered soooo

because it don’t have

Because Indonesia only use that version, without LDIRCM.

I’m not sure about LDIRCM, but for radar I think Gayjin can add it. Not all their AH64 using Longbow, only 4 from 8 if I’m not mistaken.

I hate that your right gaijin absolutely would give us another SEPV2 with the only difference being a LWS system
I had the same worry about the SEPV4 since it got cancelled and most of its upgrades just got merged into the SEPV3 and for warthunder the difference between those 2 would be so minimal i genuinely just dont want to deal with that

I would gladly have both a SEPv3 and SEPv4 later down the line.

Despite all the 1 death leavers, lineups are still a good thing. I prefer having 2 uparmored Abrams over only 1.

im not going crazy right? there was another attacker there

there was, its bugged due to other additions being improperly configured made it hidden

of course. why wouldnt we make sure things worked before pushing the update

becasue it’s the dev server?

Things are meant to go wrong here so they don’t go wrong on the live

DIRCM is only available on US helicopters
Hypothetically, the Dutch AH-64D could also be with

hard to test things if theyre so broken theyre not in the tree

So without DIRCM and JAGM the ROC AH-64E will really be more like a AH-64D?

I also realized that the BTR-82AT will likely have an independent thermal sight through the Kornet launcher (similar to the BMP-2’s alt ATGM sight) since it should have the 1PN-79 “Metis-2” thermal imager.

This is going to allow it some insane over-obstacle kills with its Kornet.

On a side note, what is that above the 2A72 barrel? A modernized IR light or LRF?

Also expecting the TKN-4GA-03 Thermal Gunner’s Sight for the gunner’s station.
