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

It’s really dumb, the US has nothing to do with it, should we add the Firefly to the US tree now? Or all the Centurions to the UK tree? Etc etc

The US needed spaa more than britain did since they had gotten the Bosvark and the Yestervark. I mean its a fair trade and imo both nations had ties to each other so why not. Better to have this happen which could mean gaijin may look at fixing gatekeeping certain vehicles from nations. Maybe ill see the 9.0 merkava on Isreal where we need one ect ect.

I hope gajin add AGM-45 Shrike and AGM-122A Sidearm in the future 🙏

If only the Bosvark wasn’t at the same BR as the Skink and the Ystervark at the same BR as the Crusader AA Mk II

While this may mean ARM being added within the next year, I would not again that, the SD-10 is based off PL-12s and SARMs based off surface-launched standards, both present in-game. Gaijin would make these copies of the existant missiles naturally to save effort later on, when dedicated ARM such as Kh-31P(although the Kh-25MP based off the Kh-25 would already be available), ALARM or HARM comes to the game, they dont need to go back and copy the model again(albeit not a lot of work).

I hope not

Because ? 🙄

Blame people for using the Crusader as TD like me and the 23mm platform has no right below 5.x that also goes for the chinese version which is under BRed.

AGM-122A and Kh-25MP are probably the smallest and worst(range-wise) ARM that would not break that much of an EW logic. AGM-122A should be able to acquire onto smaller radars, and possibly pantsir or even ITO 90M. The Kh-25MP is quite old, but we can imagine hard enough that it can acquire onto radars like TOR or ITO 90M as well.

Edit: wargame SEAD missiles lol

HARMs would only hurt the already weak SAMs/SPAAs while not bothering the Pantsirs at all

Harms will also just cause more problems with what nations can and cant get them. CAS at toptier is oppressive enough as is, we dont need more EZ no skill weapons when sams are as bad as they are now.

INB4 this gets flagged like my other posts criticizing balance.

Most of those are too low-tier. Think higher.

Why would they be too low?

Like the 7.X range like maybe 1950’s-60’s 👀

please dont let it be the boxer

Well, I did omit the leaked 9K33 Osa here due to personal convictions …

The HARM alone would be available to the US(F-16C Viper), Germany(TRE), Italy(EA-200 TRE), China(F-16A MLU) and Israel(Barak II), not mentioning airframes that are yet in-game. I am not sure about their ability to acquire smaller radars, but the pantsirs radar should be powerful enough.

I doubt there will ever be a second event SPAA, so the OSA is highly unlikely. There will probably be vehicles that are good at AA duties such as a QN506, but not dedicated AA.

I mean:

Again with what we have in game they would just be too strong and thats not a lot of nations, try finding one that lets almost all nations use it.
