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

[StormRyder13]

2/10

Nothing I really want, looks like it’ll be a nothing burger update for me. but looks to be an update.

[Morvran]

That is true. Stormer HVM is almost more effective than the ADATS because you can actually move closer in the Stormer

[TurinTurambar]

well, having to wait another entire year to see more top tier mbt’s it’s very sad tbh

[TheAceOfAces]

Will be funny watching Brit mains tear this thing down a flank and pop Kamov’s out the sky from beside the oppositions spawn lmao

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

The R-class arent the most impressive anyways. Even for the soviets it is somewhat of a meh addition since it was never modernized. The novossyrisk has very good Italian shells but def handles worse, the kronstadt is pretty well balanced.
I am more salty about the action itself rather than the vehicle.

[xPorkulusx]

What a wild night this has been. Next update looking spicy with Eurocanards. My apologies to the British for not getting their own battleship lol

[Morvran]

Will innevetiably happen and will innevetiably result in threads calling for major nerfs within a week

[TheAceOfAces]

I’m not really knowledgeable on Typhoons, what sort of Armament do these one’s we’re getting pack? (Particularly interested in the British one)

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

I would take the deal for Indian pantsirs(albeit still in talk) or MiG-29K exclusivity(pretty sure I made the word up).

[Morvran]

Its basically a Barham with a little more AA. Would play much like Barham or Hood does at the moment.

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

For F2 standard AMRAAMs B/C, ASRAAM for RAF, IRIS-T for luftstreitfalke and AMI.

[ChieftainWarrior]

I for one am actually quite happy about that. We don’t need constant MBT additions, especially nothing better than current top-tier (not without rebalancing/decompression). It’s nice to see more support vehicles like the IFVs listed, and older vehicles like the M44.

[Shay]

ASRAAMs and IRIS-Ts won’t come. They’ll get AIM-9M/L/I(-1)s.

[TheAceOfAces]

Isn’t ASRAAM / IRIS-T like… crazy good?

Can they carry 9M’s or something lesser? Or do you think they will just limit them to pure AMRAAM’s for the time being?

[Morvran]

4-6x Aim-9M/ ASRAAM
4-6x Aim-120B/C5s/Meteor

If it gets A2G then

Brimstone 2s
ePaveways
Paveways
Storm Shadow
ALARM
BL755

Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

Fireball_2020 9m Typhoon DA2(Early/Late) Initially equipped with RB199 MK104E engines generating xlb of thrust with full reheat. This somewhat limited flight performance but sadly the more powerful EJ200 engines were not ready for initial testing, therefore placeholder MK104E’s were used. The DA2 was then later retrofitted with the EJ200’s, where it was used as a flight testing aircraft for the RAF until 2007. Initially this variant did not field countermeasure systems or much of the advanced…

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

Fair enough. AIM-9M is enough if the airframe is well made.

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

They can carry AIM-9Ms and AIM-9LIs indeed, I was just talking about IRL

[AWACS_Ghost_Eye1]

@Morvran

Brimstone 2s

Cough cough yeah not getting that one

[Morvran]

Literally never used Brimstone 1s. But was also Dual-mode. So can still be SAL if the game isnt ready for mmV (Tornado Gr4 should also replace 1s with 2s, but did actually use both)

[Shay]

Until Russia gets another step ahead.
