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

Radar that half works, one of the lowest CM counts at 14.3, flight performance that got buffed because Gaijin accepted a video as a source (which they say isn’t a source normally)

They fixed the radar thing no? And anyways, it’s just a bug that’s been around for a short amount of time, the Rafales radar has been by far the best or one of the best since release pretty much. The new F-15 radar is roughly even with it

All can change with the addition of AESA Typhoon this December (Hope)

Isn’t the MICA nerfed in WT compared to IRL ?
I remember gaijin butchering something about it so that it was balanced, but that could be my memory being terrible

No 2 way DL in game, which it has IRL

I think buffing AMRAAM is a healthier option for the game because it makes it more even vs. MICA for many top tiers

C-5 have been needing a fix since introduction

Most missiles in game are ‘nerfed’ compared to irl iirc

Even if it is underperforming a bit, it’s way better off than the AMRAAM since it gets an exclusive better seeker

I wonder in what way will US get screwed again next update

My guesses:

  • A vehicle, most likely light tank, that was a mass produced vehicle or is otherwise needed badly in the tech tree, will end up as a premium.

  • Another country will get a US vehicle that’s better than the originating US vehicle despite the US themselves upgrading the same vehicle so it ends up better than the foreign exported one, altough the US will not receive such vehicle/upgrade (think F-86H, GBU-53, F-5N etc)

  • M1A2 SEPv3 will be introduced but the hull armor won’t get any upgrade at all, despite a primary budget document stating that the hull armor was upgraded, devs will say it doesn’t explicitly confirm if the actual effectivness of it was improved vs KE/CE, and even if it was, it doesn’t say how much

No, it was tested on a french f3r…

Yup we have basically mica ir in terms of range.

I hate how accurate this is.

They will get the Super Hornet, that will be pain enough.

EDIT: It will also be placed at the absolute top BR and Gaijin will pretend that it’s on par with the current and other new planes at said BR.

How is that the US being screwed, it’ll essentially just be a SEPv2 in game.

F-15 was the world’s first operational fighter with an AESA radar

Option 2: M1A2 SEPv3’s hull armor DOES get upgraded hull armor… except it will only be 470mm KE because they will base the value off a lighter, early experimental upgrade prototype from the Early 2000s, as if the U.S wouldn’t have developed a more advanced composition for commissioning 15 years later.

Giving any Abrams to any other country other than the US is screwing it over since there is no need for further reducing the little uniqueness the US tree has

I wanted to write that at first, but given how petty and utterly wrong the devs were on the M1 Abrams devblog literally lying about the weight increase for the suspension and less so denying spall liners despite it having integrated kevlar liners to reduce spall in the composite armored parts, I fully believe they will deny it having any upgrade.

i hope the autoloader for the bardelas 60mm hvms is gonna be modeled in the next major update

when the pzh2000 was added, i think it got the autoloader in the next major, not the one it was added in, so there is still hope
