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

sadly true lol

The majority of people that know anything about what they’re saying are saying that the IRIS-T and ASRAAM are better than the AIM-9X, not that the disparity will be so large that America will need something better.

I would love to finally have another ground focused update, but I don’t think benelux ground would be a large reason for that.

Benelux ground will likely be 3-5 vehicles, maybe 6 max.

In general I think the reason you don’t see ground focused updates is because ground has caught up mostly to modern time (heck Japan just got an IFV that isn’t even in production yet!!). Meanwhile air is lagging behind though we’re steadily catching up. Once we hit Gen 4.5s we’re at a point that most nations get their modern aircraft and then it’ll be more balanced.

I could go for some of those too.
Someone screenshot some discord lists of shit that won’t come.

Clean your HMIs monthly, your monitors Quartarly and undust your PC twice a year

if you stick to that schedule you’ll notice stuff like that quick enough

also, different topic, how far into the Schedule are we?

As long as they are added in one line so i can plough through just that as much as possible.

ah god no, not the brickbuild leeks

I hope so but I don’t believe it

I’m also hoping the Dutch CV90 with spikes could be a tech tree thing but that seems unlikely

after the inexistence of the NF5A and them moving thr Sea Fury to a non-BeNeLux line I’ve fully lost hope

Well, they could still do ground centered updates that just add older vehicles while introducing new or reworked mechanics

Yeah, exactly my thoughts. Just one Dutch premium anything ground around the Br of the squadron cv90 and i’ll have a line up since i’m all stocked up on backup vehicles that i haven’t used for years

I don’t think all of them will be added to 1 line.

I have a feeling that, if added to the tree, the MBTs will be concentrated to the AMX-40 line and spaa will obviously go to the SPAA line.

Yea it would be the same for India after the Vickers. Even though I want a rework for subs I don’t think the devs have a will to do so.

iitrc the project was initiated cuz of Radar / Weapon incompatibility on Japanese side. plus AAM4 doesnt fit into the weaponsbay of the 35 they have.

They will probably rearrange the tree a bit and try to get as many of the subtree vehicles into a single column as they can, but yeah, just like with the other trees, some stuff like SPAA/SAM/SPG/SPH will just get added to the existing columns.

They could also start filling the massive props gap in the Hungarian (/Romanian in a dream) line.

If Romania is being considered… it’d bring some interesting stuffs but if following IRL Romanian defense procurements, which will eventually translate to Warthunder additions i.e observing how Hungary got treated … Italy might end up with some substantial top tier stuffs.
+Abrams + K2/Merkava/Leo 2A8

Considering that, it seems denying the Canadian Leo 1 MEXAS and 2A4M for UK tree wasn’t a good idea, given how the Italian might end up being.

Maybe, although so far these are just plans. We should also see what Italy eventually gets irl.

Seems very likely to me, especially since iirc smin said that they haven’t considered any Leclerc variant to be premium so far.

You know, not everything that a nation (especially a subnation) operated is guaranteed to make an appearance ingame, right?
