Mig29K and t90m arena M

Ask Germany to install APS on Leopard. Russia will probably even sell it if Germany asks nicely and pay for it

we did on the 2A8 for example and there were a few test beds

dont include me in this bro, my most played soviet vehicle is the asu57 with like 100 battles in it

also just be patient, youll get your turn on the wheel eventually

I think I know what vehicle will be added in the next update lol. 2A8 is in full production, right?

That’s it bro. We have the candidate but gaijin sometimes choose to ignore

Probably because Leos are the strongest top tier tanks in the game currently. But if APS gonna change the balance significantly, Leo will get APS in the next update

Norway’s 2a8 have delivered

i hope so, really

the 2A7A1 has worse hull armor than the 2A7V
the 2A8 dosent have that issue

I have bought T80ud and 2s38 and try to play, then found they dont fit my fighting style, too slow.

t80ud is meh to play, pretty boring but quite good, but playing the 2s38 is just painful for me

i didnt understand your context here

also whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat dogwater russian armor…?

kh38mt still the best CAS missile even after new NATO weapons getting added…and its complemented by the pantsir sm-sv that can kill you from spawn in seconds(all SAMs can do this) but the sm-sv can shutdown an airspace…not to mention MI28nm its LMURS…in ground sim you cant fight back against a helicopter

where are the information of hull armor from🤔 I search for it but just find it says to be “newly built hulls”

That’s ture. When I drive my irist, Mi 28nm always the most intractable

the 2a7a1 uses the same hull armor package as the 2a6 from what i have heard


newly built chassis, havent said it s a6 or others, maybe

  1. No, they don’t. The “sources” in question (incl. official sources, i.e., the manufacturer of said radar) never name the Irbis, just that the radar’s been improved, and everyone on here immediately reasons it to “well, there’s no other radar set with that capability except Irbis” despite the capability to detect aircraft further away (+compatibility with R-37) could also be achieved by modifying the existing Bars + having a more powerful power plant to go with it.

  2. That’s not where the logic was going, at all. Zhuk-AE was at least planned, same way the literal existence of the Yak-141 and everything else that came with it was planned. There are many such examples throughout War Thunder, but that’s the one that comes to mind first

The Eurofighter isn’t exactly the best example to use, since it is by flight model alone a 14.3 aircraft minimum.

And overall, a MiG-29K with AESA + R-77-1 would be very good for BR 14.3. Not every aircraft needs to be the best or contend with the best to be at a certain BR.

  1. It very much is. Any aircraft with AIM-120C-5/D is 14.3 minimum. The PoBIT while it does have better CAS options, it’s also limited in A2A in a multirole scenario while the reverse is true for the MiG-29K.
  2. Su-30SM has 12 R-77-1s, “better” radar is pushing it, since AESAs are modelled to see more of what’s ahead vertically which is a well-known limit of the Bars/Irbis radars. Flight performance is definitely different. Can’t compare a heavy fighter to a light fighter in that way.

Again, like I’ve said earlier it doesn’t need to be equal to something to have a place at a BR, it just needs to have certain capabilities and it will be fine. There are multiple vehicles given this treatment throughout every tree in the game

Why do you think i put the word sources in quotation marks in the first place?

Zhuk-AE was never planned for MiG-29K. For MiG-35 sure, MiG-29K had Zhuk-M from the start.

It would most certainly not be good. We have J-15T at 14.3 with AESA and 48 countermeasures and it is very mid at best. And no, giving J-15T R-77-1s will not magically turn it into a good aircraft.

It is exactly the best example to use, because it features a mechanical radar and 8 advanced Fox-3 missiles, same as MiG-29K if it had R-77-1s. MiG-29K however does not feature broken flight model, top notch defence suite and countermeasures count.

It will most certainly not be fine. You want to turn okayish 13.7 aircraft into useless 14.3 aircraft and mask it with flawed reasoning of “certain capabilities”. Said capabilities aren’t even equal in the game, there is a massive difference between AN/APG-63 V3 and CAPTOR ECRS Mk2 despite both of them being technically AESA, saying that aircrafts are equal just by having radars of similar technology is, again, laughable.

And CM, But today the countermeasures were adjusted from 92 to 32.

And denamark L2A7
