Part of the new feature we announced in the last CM Update was to expand upon the information shown in game.
This begins with things like tank shell performance:
However as we mentioned, we plan to expand this potentially to many other aspects of the game such as elements suggested previously. Subject to change of course. But with the goal of as much information as possible being displayed within the game itself.
But I don’t always win.
If the plane actually ends up overweight should be easy to report too low T/W ratio. Its directly given by gaijin in their app for a max fuel load it seems. So hopefully thats the worst scenario. Would force peeps to review their stuff.
Do we have confirmation that the official app is a valid source of information for bug reports? Because at this point I wouldn’t take that for granted.
Do you happen to have an estimated time for when these kinds of info could be coming to the game?
If I had to guess I would say sometime early next year probably right?
Who knows with reports these days.
But if you ignore some questionable stuff in the app its pretty accurate at getting empty mass with 0 datamine knowledge. With error being unknown oil and crew mass, and rounding of the T/W number. If plane has more engines than 1 T/W is calculated for only 1 engine working I think. For max mass aka empty+oil+maxfuel+crew the error is only the rounding of the T/W number. I haven’t looked into it very that much yet. Its most definitely not datamined information.
I do get devs being tired of explaining what empty mass is or what installed thrust is for 10000 time but they are not going to escape it ever really.
Im kinda invested cause the plane looks very promising for italy. Especially like the 30mm guns over stuff like 7.7mm on the strikemaster.
I still do not understand why the weight was changed so massively today in the first place, I am hoping it is just a typo that does not make it to the live server at this point.
The manuals and brochures are very clear in stating what the empty mass is and the devs have all 3 of them in their possession so i really don’t understand it.
Adding 540 odd kg to a plane who’s weight was basically correct before makes no sense to me.
you know fokker still air spawns at 3000 km/h on dev after they fixed it at first, will probably go live at this rate and get fixed in a week after. Nothing new really.
lmao really?
Yeah well I can hope its just a typo but I’ll only know once it hits the live server I guess, and even then it might still be a typo that never gets fixed before the update comes out.
Fingers crossed they see the error, it was looking to be a really fun little plane i was looking forward to on patch day.
So basically we need to wait for the devs to add sometime down the line a system where we can actually read such data even though at that point we’ll probably never see such changes as the majority of them only happen during the test server. Nice.
so is the thrust gonna go up to 1815kg or stay at 1600kg. with the increased weight it wouldn’t be fair to use incorrect thrust numbers when the real ones are available
Hello there
I haven’t installed the dev server, so I don’t know how it flew before or how it fly now.
I can only say that I put a lot of effort, resources, and time into making sure the aircraft was set up properly and fairly, according to the manual I provided at my own expense.
I expected all the parameters to be taken correctly from that manual.
If I’m not mistaken, I see that the weight parameter doesn’t match, and we’re not even able to report it.
I really hope the datamine is wrong.
I understand the developers’ rules, but fairness would require the model to fully adhere to the manual.
…was there one? huh?? the game showed the empty mass in the past somehow?
Also not anymore possible via WT Realtime information mod?
it flew like crazy before and now its less maneuverable
Thats what tends to happen when they randomly add over half a ton to an already lightwieght plane for no reason : (
In theory, it should be extremely maneuverable.
To keep it short, the MB339 is nothing more than this K version turned into a two-seater, with the second seat raised.
The MB339, as you all probably know, is the aircraft used by the Frecce Tricolori — go to see any video….
It’s also worth noting that the MB339, when empty, actually weighs more than the K version.
So it doesn’t take much to prove whether it’s been disgracefully nerfed… try this

Not really.
While the MB339 is an evolution of the MB 326, saying it’s just the MB326K with a raised seat it’s wrong.
The responsivness of the controls was improved and the aerodynamic it’s very improved, with a more steam lined figure and the efficiency and stability of the wings improved.
This allows it to be the manouverable aircraft used by the Frecce Tricolori.
The MB 339K of course is less manouverable but still more than the MB326K and underwent modifications with a similar idea in mind.
