Constantly.
Yup. been happening for about a month now
Hey, so when you gonna grab the free Draken, you can finally get one without grinding sweden and for Free (ahem 2 months of grinding squad RP)
Yeah i noticed the 405 stuff a few weeks back
it’s faster to grind sweden and get J35D in tech tree
Yeah but if you have no interest in grinding a pretty awful tree and just want the triangle jet then its a nice alternative while grinding literally every other air tree thats worth playing lol. I mean i grinded most of my Squadron vehicles that i thought were unique while grinding different nations, eventually ill grab the JF-17 since rn the Chinese air tree only has a few interesting grabs, give it a few more updates and ill eventually grind them but for now ill stick with the remaining 120k rp left on the JF-17 to have a taste.
I did actually swap it to my current SQV grind. But im also not playing a huge amount of WT outside of a bit of naval at the moment and now I’ve got Vangaurd spaded… Probably wont be playing naval a massive amount either and I have 0 motivation to play either air or ground as SB has been abandoned by the devs and we didnt even get any game breaking bug reports fixed, let alone any new aircraft, nor did they actually add anything of use to the British ground tree.
So 4-6 months maybe?
Hey guess we’ll have the F 35 at the same time. I have the ability to grab basically all the new spaa but im just not really interested, i grinded the only thing that i wanted being the M24DK and now im just doing some air battles for SL. This update for me was pretty much a huge L for all my nations even if the SPAA was a good addition.
Spading Vanguard has probably gotten me enough SLs for next major :D
I started with 3 mil, earned about another mil grinding warpsite. Bought Warspite & Vanguard and expert crew on Vanguard and i’ve already grinded another 1.5 mil just spading Vangaurd :D
But yeah. Even if I played other air trees. Nothing of interest was added. I wont grind another ground tree and Badger is just a waste of time to grind and even if I wanted it. I have the 3 before it to grind. So it would take me 6 months to unlock.
Definetly the worst update we’ve had in years. Only W was the naval decompression. So might create a 6.0 or 6.3 line-up and play some early dreadnoughts
I dont know what people were expecting with Badger, its just a slightly better CV9030 of which is at 9.3, if anyone had seen how garbage that was they would’ve known the badger would be horrible to play.
Yup. They should have known it was bad the moment they saw the words Britain and IFV. Was no chance of it being good after Fox.

Nah i mean its just the bushmaster is terrible. I mean at least its got mobility sorta but the bushmaster is unbearable. The CV9030 has it and the CV90 MK.IV (E) has it at 10.7 its a worthless gun.

mmm, imo at 200 rpm its workable but certainly not the best. On both of the CTCWs I don’t really mind it, and on the 9030 I find the rear cupola more of a pain. But at 100 rpm? painful is the word I’d use, still not as bad as the turret basket though… Still, with a decent map I can make the badger work, although city maps are hell.
Personally when I saw “Badger” in the leaklists I was hoping for the ATGM carrier variant, I enjoy the Ratel ZT-3, and the Badger MCT should have Fire On The Move, which would be fun.

If they allowed that. Isnt there like 2x Primary sources for the ZT3A2 and they wont allow it to have that ?

Close range stuff is hell, id take the badger for bigger maps where you can use its mobility. I agree the rpm is terrible but id take mobility over anything tbh. The CV90 is dead if its gets shot anyways and at 9.3 its dead. Mobility is my biggest strength with vehicles and slow vehicles are the bain of my existence. Im hoping with the Badger we may actually see a TT Patria for Finland thats actually good.
It actually irritates me beyond belief that the BMD and BMP 3 are so low in BR compared to the 30mm trash bags at 9.x lol
yes we do huge gaps in bomber line
hey smin sorry to bug ya
theres been numerous reports on MG-151 not do a lot of damage and i even made one a while ago and nothing has been done can you do anything about this as its a big problem as German MG-151 is mounted on basically every german prop and it makes them painful to play .
SHVAK cannons in game have 4 grams of explosive mass in there HE rounds
MG-151 Mineshcobe rounds have 18grams and do less damage in protection analysis which doesn’t make sense.
shvaks use TETRYL and MG151s use HA-41 which HA-41 is more powerfull then tetryl when i comes to explosive power per gram
hispanos also use Tetryl and have higher amount at 6.4Grams
the RE or (relative effectiveness factor) is 1.0 RE for Tetryl which is equal to TNT at 1.0 RE
HA-41 has a RE of 1.4
ballistics aren’t the problem as the MG151 fires HEI at 785 m/s and shvak shoots HEF at 800m/s a difference of 15m/s which is very small this would only increase armor penetration which doesn’t matter on planes as all aircraft skin is 1mm thick aluminum
18GRAMS of HA-41 is equal to 21-23 grams of TNT
4.13 GRAMS of A-IX-2 is equal to 6 GRAMS OF TNT
6 grams of tetryl is 7.08 grams of TNT

sorry for long message
When Turkish tech tree or sub tree
this is not so right, MG-151’s HEI is lighter, and has more drag. after they added drag for plane cannons, 151’s ballistic became terrible, most time you think it hits, actually it’s the IT shell.
Ah yeah, this would make it in a similar boat to the F-15C Late as well then.
Here’s the F-15C Late’s new cockpit for reference:
Although I should hesitate to say “new” considering it’s basically just a single massive MFD on the right lol

Issue is it wouldn’t be, since it is still the same 13.4 t Ws10 as J11B and will be a tonne heavier.
