A big problem is that, the update can’t keep up the player’s need. now, it’s like every TT get’s new things by turns, adding new TT will just extend this waiting.
A small price to pay for Yugoslavia.
That would be cool as well. I love the lim-5 when mig-17 with K-5s?

Never said it should get them. Don’t put words into my mouth.
The discussion was where it would go. It’s up to Gaijin, I’m just speculating.
If someone would actually ask me where I think it should go then I’d say it’s own tree.

Basically any K-5 (or K-55) carrier is long overdue imo.

Good question, Soviet tree would make sense because for Warsaw Pact, on the other side UK for WW2, but also it can be USA, they fought for an independent America together.

The game lacks a good amount of significant rank 5-6 jets, around 8.0 to 9.3.
Wallet warriors do not care about anything that is not top tier, even Russian vehicles are suffering from it.

MiG-21S R-13M missile
The lack of MiG-17PF etc etc.

I think their operating method is similar to KH-66?

Fun fact: Polish is well favoured in Japan, that’s why they made together a movie called Avalon (2001).
Not sure how the KH-66 works but the K-5 is a beam riding missile. So that would be similar to what the Swift has in game. Most carriers have a better radar than the swift though so you’d be able to shoot down bombers from quite far… Or unsuspecting players in sim because (almost) no one has RWR’s at the Br where we’d see them. They should follow the beam towards a locked target (but not maneuver to intercept). The Swift has this too but with a very narrow 3km radar it doesn’t show much.
The Su-9 (not the one in game but the 1950’s interceptor with the same name) has a SARH variant of the K-5 named K-55 btw.

It had K-55’s? Sweet. Would love that. Too bad I don’t have the PFM and it’s pretty much out of reach.
Other MiG-21’s you know of had it?

Aim at SACLOS. KH-66、 Fire flash air-to-air missiles all use this guidance method. What is the explosive yield of K5/PL-1? I think he should be able to serve as a ground missile

Exactly
No idea. The proximity fuze might make it useless against armoured targets though…
Still, won’t be fun to try out, yes.

I think they have a higher probability of touching the fuse
aint there a Sidewinder variant with Laser seeker and impact fuse to be used as Makeshift AGM too?

me when Warsaw Pact
I wouldn’t be surprised!
I know the AV8B is supposed to get one with seeker for radar stations. HARM it’s called I think.
At this point I’m going to interject that the only “source” for that is a questionable at best “leak”. I wouldn’t expect Poland this year.
