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

I think it will depend on how it’s implemented and its performance. I still think it will be a difficult plane to use, but I will use it as it should be used: I will destroy anything by flying high, and whoever wants to catch me can climb up there. That will be the fun: making people angry with it.

lol have fun with its terrible thrust to weight and Turing ability. I already posted mig-25 max turn/sustained turn plenty times before, it’s worse than a mig-21 which is insane

“I will destroy anything by flying high”
Great idea to be such an easy-to-shoot target
Also, good luck hitting anything when your targets have their RWR going crazy for a full minute

Yes, in terms of performance it’s a brick with a rocket engine, but its gameplay, simply staying aloft, can actually be quite interesting.

what other planes have this capability?

iirc it (the 25), takes quite a bit of time to get up to speed, no?

I remember the USS Forrest Sherman was on the original yukari33 leaks:
B6E4AF03383DE22744D6E0665BD3E81F

Also, the Cassiopea patrol ship might the first ship in WT to have a helicopter hangar:

He won’t have a BR above 11.7; above that, he’d be useless. Even though he’s a brick at Mach 3, he’s perfectly capable of destroying anything in BVR at his BR.

most likely otherwise they’ll have like a week long period for the dev server if they do it next week

Most probably in same date i guess, it’s close guys brick at mach 3 time

Just remember dates are not always set in stone !

Well i guess the Zipang would fit the bill for a Battleship if the yamato would be considerd as a cruiser :D
(Aww the Yamato looks so cute next to the Zipang)

F/A18E Blk2 hey at least it isnt as bad as fighting Mig29s and F-16s with a tornado lol still gonna be clowned on tho

Honestly i think the best way to play mig25 will be to sit at alt and lob R40td at unsuspecting victims from like 15-20km away.

lets just say that its better to play like f104 at 9.3, boom and zoom who we know worked very well against a f18a irl

If it has any form of PD radar. 12.0 is the minimum.

Those below 12.0 with PD have major performance restirctions. Mach 3 capable aircraft eliminates those issues entirely.

Even at 12.0 though, it would be incredibly annoying to deal with in pretty much any 12.0 and would be an absolute menace in downtiers.

I would assume a starting BR of at least 12.3

Exactly, destroy whoever is up high because they are capable of doing it before anyone can shoot at them, and then stay up there and watch the angry enemy team members down below because they can’t climb up to reach you. Go back, rearm, and do the same thing. If they climb up high to reach you, make a turn (you won’t) and get them.

Mig 23 radar but bigger. Only mti

I mean you can just flare the r40td but the big thing is you cant see it coming lol. Imagine how this thing will shake up sim at ~12.0.
