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

tbh the R-77 isn’t a bad missile IRL, Gaijin just completely messed up the drag modeling on it, they really need to fix it or make a rush to the R-77M with its more standard fin setup if they can’t

And I don’t think it necessarily will, though if it can be good enough for 14.0 that would be nice. They really should add the J-11B for China, the F-2 for Japan, and the SU-30 for Russia, either this or next patch, that would cover 14.0 for all but Sweden, then if the F/A-18 comes in the June patch it’s perfectly fine, and the Gripen C gets at least a radar update to AESA, that’s probably as much as we can hope for with the first 2 updates, getting everyone to just about 14.0, though I can see the Typhoon being bumped to 14.3 and still leaving some nations behind.

F18 will have to be as good as the F15, so sub mach 1 with all 10 missiles will make it food, so again i dont see it. Though again depends on the version if the F18C

So again probably 13.7

Could you hint about a approximate date/timeframe for Devblog for next major? :)

(Hoping for something even a tiny bit more tangible than Soon™ <3 ).

Radar isn’t going to make the Gripen worthy of a BR increase. It would need way more, though it should actually get its correct radar since its been over 6 months without it even using the correct radar.

It’s gonna be mid Feb, likely 2nd or 3rd week of so 10th - 21st but more likely a little later in that range

Ill tell you in march ;)

nope, but then Sweden doesn’t have a real aircraft that would be 14.0, they have lower BRs and higher BRs but nothing that really fits that specific BR

Yup, again perfect time to add Danish/Norwegian 5th air line, i need my Norwegian spitfires at 5.x and my Danish F 35, also Norwegian CF-104 since we dont have a CF-104 in game, would be a cool addition

Both F 35 and CF-104 could be good 9.7’s

Finland is waiting on F-35s so it should be fine to add them there, but yeah, an extra subtree for Sweden would be nice about now, maybe for the June patch since we just got one, but March would be better

Edit: different F 35, not F-35 xD

F 35 is a draken…

F-35 is a silly little stealth plane

If only the X-32 had won, then we’d have a hideous monster of an aircraft, but at least I wouldn’t get the designations confused so much xD

I wish you didn’t speak, now i remember IT

If only we could get an update focused on adding older stuff…

We don’t even have AIM-120C yet XD let alone the AIM-120D and the eventual AIM-260.
