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

Honestly not sure if we will see the F-16E Block 60. Would be cool but I think they will just go for the Block 70/72 since no nation in-game uses the Block 60 IRL. Chances are it will come as an event or squadron vehicle instead.

That’d need an IRST overhaul as well. Those planes IRST behaving like those old mig23 IRST just doesn’t make sense. It’d be like modeling PESA radars as if they were MTI radars. Range is scuffed, scanning is scuffed, no TWS…

Funnily F-106’s is modelled mostly correctly

I have absolutely not followed the f106. I also don’t know much about the plane. Could you explain what you mean ? (I did not even know it had IRST)

@Smin1080p_WT Hey,sir.As more and more over-the-horizon weapons appear, do developers have the idea of adding a continental war map in the future?

As far as i know for the F-106, the IRST displays in a similar matter to the radar on the radar scope

Due to the limitations of the Dagor, game engine, I highly doubt that larger maps, more than 135 km² will ever come.

Maybe it’s WIP for other aircraft’s then ?

You know… i just realized. If the “aircraft that stings” is a hornet, which it probably is. This will be the third update in a row where we get a hornet… which i ain’t complaining since i love hornets. But i do think it’s a bit too many hornets lol. Hopefully it’s an aussie or super hornet. I wouldn’t mind either :p

I mean, it wouldn’t be the first time they completely overhauled it

@Smin1080p_WT since the Nations will get the F-111F/Su-24M(and Tornado ASSTA) as nuke carrier, these planes feature an MAW system, the Tornado however has not an MAW in game, is it planned that this will be adressed?

It does a rapid scans for thermal signatures and displays them and can detect stuff at a very long range as well

all right…

Since they are involved in a current conflict and not really iconic (except for the T-84) chances are gaijin will keep their hands off most of them, apart from the fact that we don’t get most “unique” vehicles anyways

what do you mean by continental map? Entire continent as a map?

As an Austrian with a bunch of German friends, no one would care, it’s a game, it’s not that deep

another thing I’m concerned about is new br adjustment

Yea I’d think that apply to all Ukrainian vehicles.Still the Thai Btrs aswell (at a stretch the AB-13 could also make it. There was a modified VAB that could work for France, should the vehicles be stretched across trees)

Sadly true

Pov: Me at Gaijin HQ after f22 was denied.

@Deathmisser

No one would care…
