Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 1)

Germany has no alternatives unless Gaijin comes up with an F-16AJ solution for them.

The best option is like f/a18 from some other nation

There are the Typhoon DA.1 and 4, which would be Yak-141 situations more than F-16AJ ones, however I very much doubt Gaijin will add any of the DA Typhoons before the production ones based on what they have said.

I mean there are some very controversial alternatives like the F/A-18 and F-15 that were tested by WTD-61 in the US

29SMT and 16C also weren’t needed, yet they were added.

You have typed so much BS, you should probably stop thinking whatever you write is the absolute truth while you have absolutely nothing to back/proof it.

Again missing the point. The point was to dismiss Volxars point that the F-15 is absolutely confirmed to be not coming, because of the argument “it’s not needed”.

Yes, except the cockpit was also modernised with MFDs and targeting pods could also be used for air-to-ground weapons.

Same radar and everything. The AN/APG-65GY which is the F-18 radar licence produced by Germany.

Nope, only Sparrows. I think they are mainly used as bomb trucks now, unlike the German and Greek ones which are for interception.

Smin said there some Leo coming = ✅
Rank 8 = ✅
A new British top tier jet = ✅
Smin said the update will be quiet big = ✅

tbf that a lot of things that list got right so for me I would say it’s around 70% true.

which list are we talking about now? there were multiple

Indeed, it’s the classic “US / USSR already has / got these vehicles, they don’t need anything else!,” as if a random forum user gets to decide what the game “needs.”

The latest huge one

The comment you replied to had nothing to do with the list, but okay. And there are quite a few things that stand out in it, namely the Ha-Go and the Su-27 simply being “Su-27”, which is a pre-production variant, and none of the pre-modernisation Su-27s can use R-77s anyway.

maybe they haven’t decided on a Model yet, they do that sometimes

That is a possibility.

I find it weird that this update lists are coming weeks before the first Devblog while last time they didn’t arrive at all and the one prior they only were around after the first devblog

Wtf do you mean ?

These are conformations from gaijin and Smin so it lines up with the list but you think it doesn’t

The comment had nothing to do with the list, as in there is no relation between the list and my comment.

but it’s surely on topic right?

And the Gripen C was confirmed too.
