I find it quite fine tbh. From what I know Italy has no proper plane for Air RB, so this one will be fine for grinding TT (unless there are people who enjoy gameplay of premium F-104 or AMX-1 more). Plus, idk what systems it has rn but they are supposed to be superior to the regular MiG-29 found in the same TT (so it’s not plain copy paste neither, like some enjoy calling it).
Better have somewhat unique plane a premium than having actual unique vehicle locked behind events
I also like the fact Italy starts to get more and more Romanian vehicles overall, so maybe Gaijoobles will bless us with some TT vehicles in the near future (and those will be actually unique ones, like MiG-21 LanceR)
Just a standard AKM
I’m angry because Italy lacks a Squadron vehicle. The Sniper was perfect for that role
Even the UK got a slightly different one, that’s tragic
so like radar or arnament?
Perhaps some MiG-21 variant will be one, if you think about it. Still better than locking it behind enormous paywall or grinding event
Hope, those will be free and not in Russian TT. We know what Gaijin is capable of…
So, did the Mig-29 Sniper get compatible with western munitions? Not sure what “NATO Compatible” is supposed to entail.
Weapons most likely. Weirdly, it got it’s Elta 2032 radar, which I don’t mind, but books said it was proposed. It was fully planned to implement it, but MiG bureu intervened
Damn, looks cool, should be a nice premium, does it get any other missiles btw?
And what about cockpit?)
No. It doesn’t get other missiles sadly. I did hope it getting R-73’s, which now makes even more sense because of the radar upgrade too, not only making it superior with RWR compared to the base 12.7 MiG’s. If I had to guess (and hope), it might go up to 13.0 but get R-73’s
Thanks, I hope as well
It’s nice to see the ELTA, I would like to also see NATO weaponry that was projected to have like they did on the LanceR.
I don’t want to go and ask for ARH, as it would also make it difficult to use, but to have Magic 2s and some guided bombs, it wouldn’t be bad.
Gaijin is down bad for making this a premium, or are they?
Nahh. I’ll buy it
Don’t pay attention to the snail
It’s harmless…
I’ll buy it instantly if it keeps the 2032 radar. Even more if it gets better weapons
I do not know what it is, but there is just something I like about it
I remember the good old days when gaijin said they will “never” make top tier premium, silly gaijin.
Given it’s a pack, there may be some preorder bonuses too. Genuinely considering it, but with the state of the Italian tree, I dunno. Would be fun to pick this one up and hopefully get a LanceR at some point as well, but I’ll likely wait for a 50% off seeing as no premium is really ever worth its full price.
Gaijin said many things.
