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

That would be just like Gaijin.

I did discuss this with the others about the specific naming for the kfir. This is not just a C.10, it is specifically blk 60, this means that the C.10 is reserved for other uses. But it is not certain, the Su-25BM(ARZ558) is also a very strict designation.
Edit: the Pakistani T-80UD(obj 478BE) is the same. This may equally hint a late version with oplot turret.

Someone squatted the AMX-10RC!

It’s the main feature of the variant… Would be really stupid not to give the thing it’s most known for.

I wouldn’t put it past Gaijin, but I also don’t want to encourage it

Edit: Obviously it would get a higher BR and probably even rank with them, it can’t be expected for a fully fixed F-5T to still be at 11.3, more likely 12.X going by what it’d be equipped with.

Well it doesnt really mean much tbf. F-16A and MiG-29 were playing the opposite role they are meant to do, the GR.4 never got its dual-mode brimstones, etc. The F-16AJ didnt even come with the advertised gear-cover sparrow rails.

Yeah, true.

Still, there is hope they get it right here, even if the odds might be against it.

I still wish they would add this, it would have been soo cool…

A bit too much to ask for in that sense, maybe, cause F15C with ANAPG63 V2/3, F18s with ANAPG79, J10B, AESA Gripen, F2 could have been a whole new update, although maybe I thought to fit the theme of canard deltas they might add JAS39s and J10Bs.

Also makes sense cause Chengdu or CAIG is in charge of J7s which could also have a few more interesting derivations, like J7G, which are all sort of light fighters. J8s also could do with a few more variants like the early nose intake variants, which all goes under Shenyang.

am %100 sure that we´ll see it sooner than you think trust me the Kfir is not gonna do it well in 13.0 call me crazy right now but with the time passing by people are gonna give me the reason just wait until the event ends and people start to play it a lot.

well the F-5T can just use 2 Python-4s i can see it being placed in 12.3-12.7 reciving just 2 Python-4 and later they could add the F-5TH with Python-4 and I-Derby in 13.0 and also the F-5A should be carrying 2 AIM-9P-4 they could place it in 11.0.

Does it only have two AIM9P-4s?
I really feel like F5ECU RN is under BR’d, since the 4 3km all aspects are really strong, couple that with the good manoeuvrability, quite strong RN. In contrast JH7A with similar missiles sits at 12.3.

the few pics i see from that F-5 i just see it with 2 missiles soo… maybe some one have more info about it.

I’d hope it could get its IRIS-Ts, unlike Python 5 and Derby that are compatible but not yet mounted (but will be iirc) IRIS-T is already in active service with the F-5TH.

F-5A from what I could find was only ever equipped with AIM-9P-3, no AIM-9E like it exclusively has in game right now, but also no AIM-9P-4 all aspect missiles.

Maybe next BR change time Gaijin should consider these attackers BR need to reduce, same issue with Mirage 2000 DR/RMV

It would technically be 5-6 new air frames as opposed to 4 from Air Superiority yea. But still within the realm of possibilities with a long enough dev server. Heck it might have been the plan until Firebirds took way too long to get out the door and they had to rush a bit to get this update out.

That said, F2 and F18s are the only ones that really are “new”, J10B might be sort of “new” as well since the air intake and nose are both changed. Everything else could literally be the same as it is in game RN.

Yeah, Magic 2s at 12.7, not very advertising. I would appreciate both to come down, maybe both to 12.0 since both have good airframe and missiles, but tbh they are after all IR missiles, compared to stuff like Mirage CS5 at 12.3 they are lacking, and even Mirage F1C is significantly better at 12.0.

I meant on tech tree vehicles. I do believe that the Kfir bl 60 will get them sooner.

Anyone have any test drive links for the winter event vehicles?
