Next Major Update - "Eagle's Shadow" Rumour Roundup & Discussion (Part 2)

Rush? Not really. Its just a standard process for adding any vehicle

The Su-30MKM likely started out using SM files as well

Of course, but there is a small detail.
MKM was in a trailer, SM2 wasn’t and it got added later even though it’s a newest Russian top tier jet, except for Su-35S

Lot of vehicles aren’t in the trailers, trailers are just snapshots of the update

@Smin1080p_WT Will the Malaysian F/A-18D receive SLAM-ER and JSOW like its American counterpart?

Usually over hyped vehicles like new top tier jets are shown if they are planned in the update, unlike some Drakens on 10.3, F-35 was the name if I am not wrong

@Smin1080p_WT May I ask why the Leopard 2A8NO gets a Roof mounted MG while the German 2A8 is Missing it and a report for it got shot down?

Zusammenfassung


Even tho the Bundeswehr clearly says the 2A8 will have 2 MGs

“Neben der Bordkanone wird der Leopard 2 A8, wie auch seine Vorgänger, über zwei Maschinengewehre im Kaliber 7,62 Millimeter verfügen.” / "In addition to the on-board gun, the Leopard 2 A8, like its predecessors, will have two 7.62 millimetre machine guns."

I wonder if you can land on Halsey with VTOL jet

I guess because Grom-2 already perform the work of the glide bomb?
Speaking of the Grom, I wonder that are the chances of Grom-1 returning as NE exclusive (if it “too strong” for Air modes (that stops using Kh-38ML in GNSS mode in the same fashion (farming bases) I, honestly, have no clue)

Edit: fixed the mix up (I never remember which have rocket booster, Grom-1 or Grom-2)

Other way around, we have the grom 2 ingame

That said, don’t think there’s a lot of use for the grom 1 in NE

I mean…
We already have nukes and throwing them like it nothing

I mean, same as the other glide munition? Just faster (means AA have less of the time window to intercept)

Might as well just use the Kh-38ML’s, still need to use them close enough that some aren’t shot down

Or give us a regular Toldi variant, the one with sideskirts for example.

True, but you can take more Groms than Kh-38s. As for getting close enough… I dont know, Grom-1s yield me decent results in NE in attacking facilities (with anti-rad taking on SPAAs and in general being a nuance)

If nothing else at least for more variety/nuance.
