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

I also think it’s a bit too early, though idk how effective they will be in the game, would be nice to get some test mission first.

Hey @Smin1080p_WT , could we get an update/nudge on this post? Its become quite frustrating seeing posts about this, closed with answers that are very easily contradicted. Thanks in advance.

with the existence of ASROC in game and cold war ear ASW hunters I wounder if we would see early cold war diesel electrics with early guided torpedoes

like HMS Porpoise and tigerfish the only issue is the US sorta jumped right to nuclear power

i mean I think they would be good, and gaijin wont model the loitering ability things like ALARM has so all you have to do is turn the radar off after firing a counter shot, now he is on the defensive

The problem I have qith ARM is that only a few nations have actually good AAs at top tier.

Swedish, Israeli, Japanese and Chinese top tier AA can already barely compete with current top tier CAS. So adding ARM would be like kicking these nations while they are already down on the ground.

Talking about submarines, should they even have its own tab? I mean most of fleet trees don’t even have 3 lines and can easily accommodate subs.
This way all naval nations could get at least one sub at once.
PS Plus Coastal fleet trees could maybe even get some midget submarines.

I pray they are in bluewater costal has terrible RP gain and if they were by themselves they would have the same issues

We really need cross-research ability for fleet trees, I would already researched both Littorio ships using coastal Alano boat 😆

its wild I have Lubek and Z23 in the german tree, they are the same BR yet Z23 earns a lot more SL and RP

Instead of the MiG-31, the Su-35 is more realistic

tbh its odd for air anyway it should be the Gripen E and Trenche 3 EFTs dont add a whole lot to the tree (unless they want to add Meteor and 5th gen IIR missiles)

They won’t add the F/A-18F to USA when the E exists, only UK will get the F as AU doesn’t operate the E

Hawk 209 from Indonesia would be better, their livery designer cooked
Also FV101 my beloved

I mean it’s pretty in line for Gaijin to add 1 vehicle (or the same vehicle for 3 nations) to powercreep almost all the vehicles in the same update and also almost all the new vehicles.

what plane is being added to 3 nations? unless you mean a trenche 3 EFT with the only changes being to A2G loadouts and maybe better AAMs (they would come to everyone at the same time)

Oh the trenche 3 is not the AESA? In that case yeah it would not be a problem.

Then again, it would be very Gaijin to add a completely new 420K RP typhoon just for a couple new CAS loadouts. Just look at the F-16I.

by technicality it COULD be AESA but the only current AESA EFTs are tenche 4s and even then its only germany as the UK and Italy are still waiting for Captor E mk2 to be integrated

ikr I expect them to do it and sell it off as hey you get SPEAR Glides or Spice 250s

Yep. Though I think it would come to the game without functional polaris, it would be a good fit at 5.7 I think

I’m not sure if the Su-35 is “more” realistic, both would be equally realistic I think

Yeah you are correct, slip up on my end

My intention was to reflect AESA but I did not do enough research lol

I really hope they actually give everyone Subs and its not just Germany, US and Japan.

I can really see them doing that

Germany, US and USSR

Because we all know the Soviet WW2 submarines are far more significant than nations like Japan, Britain or France that aren’t in any way known for their submarines
