to be fair im not sure about russia but if they have subsonic equivalent for there ARM carriers it would have been unfair.
what does russia get to carry ARM’s in the event other than the su25?
Britain:
Tornado GR1 / GR4 - ALARM
Buc S2B - AJ168
Tornado EF3 (I think this could maybe be added as a mod for the F3) - ALARM
Typhoon - ALARM (Gaijin discretion on this one)
Harrier Gr7 - ALARM
France:
Jaguar A/E - AJ168
Only one I know properly, Id assume the Mirage 2000Ds and maybe the Super Etendard would have an ARM option too
Germany and Italy
Tornado IDS - AGM-88
F-4 maybe too for Germany?
Japan is probably gunna be reliant on technical compatibilty for their US stuff. (A-7, F-4, F-16)
Sweden
No idea
China has native options I think, but would be slightly higher BRs
Israel I assume has options on their F-16s and co
Might be confusing it with teh Tornado GR4 running 4x ALARM and 12x Brimstone
Su-24?
(not looked at the redfor side)
it would kinda be funny if theretechtree just ends here they essentially have evrything other that ECM on their gripens right?
Yeah, at least they’ll get AGM-88 on the F-16s and F-18s, but I dont know if the ASJ37 had any form of ARM though.
oof only 2 lol
other than the obvious excuse of less work i wonder if 9 arms vs 2 on a supersonic swingwing fighter made them not do it, we better get it next update i want a reason to finally grind the german tornado line
also with how easily arms get intercepted this one is comically useless over the 6 bombs lol
Yeah, how they’ll balance the GR1 is gunna be interesting.
But for this event the ASSTA1 would have been the most obvious and easy choice as it can just use the same ARMs already added
true
Anyone else notice rockets fired from tanks appear in the minimap in ground battles after the last patch?
Patch note says it was added for aircraft weapons but doesn’t mention ground.
Mega buff for the RBT lol.

well now ill have to test that, also thats such a vague description if thats what the patch note’s say lol, is it for tracking fox 3 progress, helping enemies and teammates keep track of cas munitions?? so many more questions i have now.
They added this for Torpedos too, so maybe they just added for GRB as well
Smin, you you know if the Bomber are Loadout wise finished?
Because it seems wierd that the Tu-95 only gets 6x 250kg max stock while the B-52 gets 51 bombs
Also, can be please get these Bomber as Nuke bomber in GRB with the Mega Muke? :))

IMHO the only “problem” is the IRIAF, if it get’s removed on the event we are fine, saw a dude get 55 kills in it.
Seems smoke grenades also appear as missiles on the map if you zoom in enough.
Hope they keep it, Makes lobbing rockets over the map at campers easier lol.
Any updates on this or will the presets stay disadvantaged against players with their own US / USSR aircraft?
And if so, will there be any compensation like increased point gain or similar?
Because right now I feel like the game is just needlessly punishing players that either play other modes, other nations or simply haven’t gotten to that point, which just seems very disappointing compared to previous April Fools events that were accessible for everyone equally.

Yeah this is what I’ve been telling people, this is a good time to get free jet RP.
@Smin1080p_WT since we are getting a B-52 with tail gun, is there any chance at all we are going to get the proper radar aiming mechanic for it and the B-66? IRL these weapons were not manually operated. They were tied to a radar in their tails and aiming was completely automated with the only input from the gunner being choosing a target and pressing the fire button, there is no manual operation of these turrets like how they are presented in War Thunder
