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

What about F-15, Su-30, Eurofighter and Rafale anime premium packs? That would be the next logical step

Yeah this I wouldn’t be suprised to see the AESA EFT this update and then 5th gen in june or september.

So 6-9 more months of top tier being Rafale + EFT stomping grounds and maybe then we finally see another meta shift.

hopefully it comes with meteor and asraam/ iris-t so i dont have to grind out 430k rp for just a radar…

Yrsh not that soon, maybe they’ll be added to them in a future update.

The current EFT is already incredible, an AESA EFT would be even stronger.

So adding an AESA EFT with stronger missiles from the get go is just asking for something to go wrong balance wise. (For any nation without a Rafale of course, France will be fine regardless).

EDIT: this goes for other airframes and missiles as well.

golden eagle deserves the extra pylons idk how it still lacks them

I doubt stealth will change much at all if long range IIR missiles are added, especially MICA IR and ASRAAM when paired with the respective IRST systems

rafale mica is genuinely stupidly overpowered

I’m thinking they’ll keep 5th gens for December next year, but it could be likely for more advanced missiles this update, especially if they add an AESA EFT.

I just want another plane than the Rafale (and to a lesser extend the EFT) to be at the top of the food chain.

I don’t care which nation(s) is/are getting the new top dogs but please just anything.

realistically the only options are the su35 and f15ex, maybe f16v but i doubt it would cope well

Su35 is probably looking to be the 2nd best after the Rafale, unless (I hope) they bring an AESA Typhoon and remodel the Aim-120’s performance.

Su30 is already very good in this meta, so a basically faster version of it with more electronics should close the gap further.

when fighting trenche 2 EFTs yeah the moment we get a trenche 4 its back at the top

Do yall think they are going to exceed the 42 vehicles average per update for the upcoming patch?

probably not

True 100% especially if they add R-77M with a harder-to-notch seeker like mica

I think that even the 77-1 could see a remodelled seeker, before jumping to newer missiles like the 77M.

Imo if they go ahead and remodel the seekers, they should do that for every other missile too.

we wont get R-77M its the counter part to the AIM-120D

Yeah until 5th gens the Eurofighter with AESA will be the top dog (so long as its radar actually works and it doesn’t come in the same state the current EFT’s did).

The F-15EX will most likely be able to contend with it but stuff like the F-16 Block 70 will fall short, especially the Super Hornet.

yeah, tranche 4 will dominate everything ( unless gaijin decides to use the stats of it based off their opinions instead of real data)
