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

Yeah Idk personally I think the EFT should get shadow storms but. That’s just me.

Cruise missiles become a tricky implementaiton. Whilst they might provide us some limited FnF ability. They could also probably destroy bases with just 2 missiles and hit any base, any where, even on the largest maps. The easiest way to farm anything in SB would just be to take off, reach launch speed and fire them before RTBing. Given the Typhoons climb rate with just 2x Storm Shadows and min fuel. That would take seconds.

it would be insane.

Brimstone 2s (even just limited to SAL only) would be the fairest option. Just mitigate quantity with the fact they arent FnF, but its unfair to nerf both the lack of FnF and the missile performance themselves. Havng to operatre well within range of any SPAA is really annoying when everyone else can sit at 30+ KM without issue

Idk I guess my mindset goes to is it much different from the KH-38 if we limit it to IIR?

The problem is that its only IR in terminal phase. So unless they just ahistorically model it. It would still need some form of IOG at the very least. Which would still allow for base killing most likely

Historically Brimstones are mmW.

Yeah… but you are forgetting Britain Tax.

If Vikhrs were MMW, they would probably have been fine.

Idk. All i know is the brimstones being mmW is locking them out of FnF. But other options like the spear and shadowstorm exist.

Yeah, even just Brimstone 3s and giving them 0 Drift IOG would probably be enough “FnF” for now.

But nope, Typhoon has to have a ahsitorically modeled version of an AGM it never actually carried (First Brimstone it equipped was the Brimstone 2)

ik, thats why i said this specifically

all this i agree wholeheartedly

100% fixed Typhoon. Yes, probably could just about compete with F-15C with AESA. But the likelyhood is, the F-15C is going to get AESA long ebfore we see the Typhoons get CAPTOR-M

well they were the 2nd jet to get AESA operationally after all. even before the Typhoon with CAPTOR M was operational :P

Kinda falls into where the F-2 is if you think about it.

Yeah, that is going to be DOA. Kinda sad actually

No you heard Gaijin war thunder isn’t ready for the F-2.

Although they might be right testing the radar on the kfir c.10 i think they have asea modeled wrong.

Yeah, AESA is basically just very fast M-scan with a few extra bells and whistles. But still blows any M-Scan except wierdly the Foxhunter, out of the water.

your selling it a bit short tbh

in game*

Asea should be able to maintain lock while scanning. If I remember correctly while it is scanning it should be able to hold a signal on an targeted located aircraft.
Here you can see it pretty much has multiple scan sectors and the speed is quite insane.
