will aircraft weight and thrust to weight ever be added to the stat card
@Smin1080p_WT As my previous one didnt got answered, does the addition of AIM-120 to 16ADF means that Chinese MLU gets its CM count fixed and increased to 90 to be historically accurate and italian and US ADF gets AN/APG66(V)2 to gain TWS capability?
Hey. These are all separate matters and not connected. As you can see from the BR changes, only the addition of AIM-120 is coming right now.
Reports are welcome on the addition of any new radar modes or countermeasures.
Well, they did get their radars upgraded in order to use AMRAAMs,and the ROC F-16 is MLU, otherwise playing it with 30 CMs after the ahistorical nerf will be very painful. Besides the report got previously denied for the CMs.
first question: we could see any kind of new air to air missile this upcoming major update?
second question: in the CM covert disclosure the devs mentioned that they want to add first a good amount of 4+ and 4++ gen fighters with AESA radars to fill gaps in many nations before fifth gen fighters, but in one of those nations in this case israel its not possible to fill that gap with an indigenous jet without needing a subtree or adding the ( F-35I thing that i dont see it happening until next year) soo… the thing is… we should expect to see some kind of subtree or jet of any nation to fill the gap like they did before with great britain and the south african gripen but in this case with the technology needed to fix that gap in the israeli tree? am just curious about this because israel does not have any 4+, 4++ gen aircraft in the research tree with an AESA radar the only jet with AESA right now in service is the F-35I until the F-15IA comes and the F-15I gets upgraded to IA standards.
Its very unlikely there will be any new generation air to air missiles in this major update.
If we had any news or details on new sub trees to share, this would have been done in the CM disclosures. Such as the Thailand Ground Sub tree component.

thanks smin, and last question we could expect to see something being added for israel this major (ground or air)?
Every nation normally gets something. Be that on the air, on the ground or at sea.

Yeah, but i mean…
Some nations… E.G. Sweden, Israël, Italy and China get most of times 1 vehicle per update, unless a sub-TT gets added. Sometimes it just being a single premium one…
Maybe, every nation should get a minimum of around 3/4 vehicles per update.
No matter how, just 3/4 vehicles per update.
Every nation in the game has currently another nations vehicles inside of them, so if someone doesn’t have domestic stuff, just add something from that other nation; e.g. Colombia to Israël, more Bangladesh or Pakistani to China, Romanian to Italy, and much more Norwegian and Finnish stuff for Sweden.
PS. When does Sweden finally get a Rank III Heavy Tank. The KV-1B is already there… Just add it to Finland… Same goes for the SA light tank in Germany…
Also Japan, they still need a TT Rank III Heavy Tank.

You’ve said something of other vehicles are planned for the Thai branch, I’m guessing the CM were just the tip of the ice berg on what’s in for the Thai line for the update ?
Sure hope so… Now it’s just full on C&P with exception of the Stingray and Oplot.
More effort should be put towards the Japanese TT as its one of the last unique TT’S out there…
C&P isn’t what I was on about, I just hoping there more than the 5 that were tease, either C&P or unique
Ah, oké. Well… we have to wait and find out i guess…
Do hope its unique, because Thailand has more unique then C&P stuff…
… I’d give a non-insignificant quantity of internal organs for the Thai FV101

I always wondered how exactly you guys go through it all, if its a “one and done” or a “keep reading through and check if anything gets popular or was missed that could work”. Nice to see a bit of info ^^
Now I just hope that my upd00ted Strikemaster suggestion in there goes though this time (I may or may not suggest it every time xD)
Passed to devs 8 years ago. I hate to be that guy, but something tells me Gaijin isn’t adding it.
Yeah, Thai 1 for Japan (iirc it has a LRF right) and also a UK/export version IDK, Oman or something which has a LRF (I am pretty sure it got 1, or some did in order to support the MBTs) would be peak funi artillery moment on bigger maps seeing Scorpions just plinking away at each other from 2km and counting to 10 seconds or something xD.

@Smin1080p_WT , a somewhat different question, one you may not have an answer to and that’s OK:
What is the perspective on the development team on the balance of Coastal vessels? I know a lot of players aren’t satisfied with their performance versus Bluewater vessels of similar BR or the economics of researching them. Is this something that is being evaluated and considered for changing?

I don’t actually whether it had a LRF or not, but Thailand modified theirs with SELEX Galileo STAWS; now Type 21s (FV101s) have Thermal sights, but also an engine upgrade.
