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

Quick question, does that apply to only ships in one particular tech tree? Or are captured/loaned ships like Royal Sovereign or Guilio Cesare included in that as well?

Also is there any chance the devs could change or relax that rule in the future? Just considering there’s a ton of ships that received one-off or unique fits but are represented in-game in more standardized fits (ie Ise’s Hybrid Battle Carrier fit or Detroit’s experimental late war fit etc).

Additionally is there any chance we might see something like Cesare pop up in the Italian tree or Royal Sovereign in the British tree considering their relative fame and in the case of Cesare, a unique non Soviet fit? Thanks!

There is a huge difference between the R-27 and these other missiles lol

can we please not forget that they promise they gonna add the tor m1 to russia

by saying that, you are defending that russia has a missile with no counterparts, but that the west isnt allowed to.

RB73^


RB72 which was compatible on Drakens and Viggens, basically a long range Magic 2

Technically the precursor to the meteor was a Skyflash with a ramjet

I literally posted it Morvran smh

So you did, missed that ]

No, the testbed was the two seat gripen d. Saab marketed the whole gripen e and f as ng, so the gripen ng you are talking about is an early gripen e prototype, which is what brazil tested

Listen, the R-27T/ET should not have been added back then, but you don’t fix that addition by adding missiles that are even more powerful.

Especially when the BRs where the R-27T/ET actually is problematic is 11.7/12.0 lol

Its weird China gets their own domestic missiles but not Sweden, sad…

so you just dont add something because there are no counterparts? That only goes for western equipment tho of course. The kh-38 has no counterpart. The r73 has no counterpart. The r27ET has no counterpart. LMUR etc.

What type of missile are you talking about?

Aaah, aight, mixed up the names

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see more prototype and abandoned stuff, but there is a difference between China getting domestic stuff and Sweden not getting prototype stuff lol

Tbf the J35XS is missing its RB27/28, and R13’s.

The F-35 WDNS never used aim-9B nor aim 9N, it only used Swiss modified aim 9b and AIM-9N2

SO yeah its kind of a cope to ask for RB72 but given we have other vehicles lacking historical weapons i think thats not as big of a ask lol. Especially given they would fix some of our vehicles like the Di being 13m0 with only 9L missiles with a terrible flight model and RWR lol

Gaijin is just too lazy to add Aim 9N-2 to the Italian starfighters. (Which i think were only testbeds. Not service like our Drakens.)

I think there are single seat testbeds as well, 39-8 , 39-9 and 39-10 are all NG testbeds. The 39-7 was the first of them and indeed a modified D version but it isn’t the only one.

I’ve been saying that these weapons should get artificially nerfed for ages, but Gaijin thinks otherwise.

All that has happened in the past was a constant back and forth between one side dominating the other with escalating levels of domination. This has to stop.

The R-73 is the better IR missile in most cases, but the AIM-120 is the better ARH in most cases.
Each platform and weapon has it’s pros and cons and the current state of ARB seems pretty balanced, despite the R-73 being so “dominant” in short range missile combat.

oh yeah, what copium are you using saying that the aim-120 is better than the r77-1? same range but the r77 has faster accel and turns like a mica

Devblog of WT Mobile:

This is the second NL ship in WTM, and their first surface vessel. The hangar-mounted Goalkeeper turret is hidden from view, the same as other CIWS weapons:


Btw, while WT Mobile datamines are still on hold, there are two things that appeared today that seem worth noting: a " ships " version of the FAB-100 bomb, and a duplicate of the Mk.46 lightweight torpedo that has " us_ " as it 's nation prefix, instead of the " jp_ " prefix used by the currently available one in both WTM and WT:
