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

I do want to say this 2 extra AMRAAM’s ain’t gonna make it broken what’s holding it in a some what balanced state is the abysmal performance of the AMRAAM’s

It could be sitting there for a newer rafale down the road, also a reminder that the AIM-120C and R-77-1 was sitting in the files for like a year or more before getting added into the game (in regards to talks about the PL-15).

If the typhoon gets ASRAAMS the rafale can get MICA IR

genuinelly would be the funniest thing that gaijin could add

A man of taste. We must hope the F/A-18F comes as an aussie hornet later next year. Probably in the UK tree but a squad vehicle for the US works too.

open for the best american made aircraft

adding those missiles would mean that IR (IIR) meta is in full effect. To keep ARH a viable option would mean removing multi-pathing completely for top tier missiles.

Way too early.

my fella it was way to early for AESA jets and they’re defo gonna add the next gen jets probs half way into 2026

@Smin1080p_WT More Air Sim updates please. Don’t leave us behind. The sim community has been patient for over 3 - 4 years waiting for fixes and re-works. More maps, fixing bugged lobbies, fixing buggy objectives.

Yep Summer 2026 gen 5 jets. Gonna be a sth i tell you. Not the jets themself but new missiles and potentially new mechanics associated with them

“gaijin”

I mean hell Anti Radar is early 2026

nah knowing gaijin will get 5th gens with out stealth properly implemented yet or radars being able to detect them immediately do to buggy code and it will take them half a year to accept the bug report.

Super hornet isn’t surviving the dev server. Gripen E is nice tho, might actually get around to finishing sweden.

Should come foldered with the F/A-18E I think. The same could be done with other twin seat versions as well like the F-16D foldered with the C, F-15D with the MSIP 2 etc.

idk if ARM will be that meta. Good for probing an area for SAMs but all it takes to defeat them is turning off your radar and they dont have the explosive mass to splash the SAMs with INS and GNSS guidance

you genuinely think the average sam player will think to turn their radar off?

to be fair what’s the point of two seaters in war thunder, they are actively worse than their one seater variants due to us not getting the benefits of a second pilot anyways.
